His Phenominal Record of Cures of all Manner of Chronic Dis eases is Attested by the Follow ing Facts:-The Nervous System The System Which Controls the Whole Body. Tbe most wondorful part of man and most dlflloutt to uimiinvliuud, perhaps, Is tho nervous system, which touches aud controls every purl of tho body, flut ing its roots In tho brain, Its trunk iu tho spine, aud Its brauuhusextundliiK Into nnd throughout evory uiuaolo, limb nnd organ of the animal frame, It curries olthor life and health or dituaso and death ulong Its aourse. The brain secretes a nervous fluid which Is rangnotlo In Its effects und In lluenues. Tho lungnootlo element travels along tho nerves like oloutrlnlty, from the roots of tho hair to tho tips of tho llugers, and through Its tologruphlo com munication purmoatus tho whole systuin. When the nervous fluid Is dulloiuut or when the nerves do not properly transmit It, woaknusa and disease are thn Inevitable result; oleutrlolly, the wonder of tho age, roots tho disease from Its stronghold. It permeates thn socrol ambush of dlsoase nnd exterminates it root and branch. It removes tho wretched symptoms of loathsome maludlas, and avurts their dreadful results. It relieves mure ugony and sulfurlug than tongue can toll, as tho following cures by Dr. Durrln show: TESTIMONIALS OF CURES. C. C. Presley, Woodvlllo, Or., deaf ness cured. Wm.
