America's Great Danger
AM ENGLISH COMMENTARY.
Said an eminent English scientist recently :
" The danger that confronts the great Ameri
can people to-day is not the possible adop
tion ot a wrong nnancial policy for the
nation, or the spread of socialism, or the
increase of corruption among public men.
All these are bad enough, to he sure, but
they are as nothing compared to the terrible
national disease I had almost said national
crime of overwork. The mad rush for
wealth is set at a killing pace, and thousands
fall by the way every year.
You are likely to be one of the victims Y.
How do we know? Because it is the excep
tion to find a man or woman of adult age in
perfect health. Nervous Disorders are
spreading with fearful rapidity. Among the
symptoms, are Backache, Biliousness, Cold
Hands and reel, JLuzziness, Hot flashes,
Fluttering Sensation, Fainting, Headache,
Hysteria, Irritability of the Heart, Melan

Rev. G. A. Cabboix. pastor First Baptist
Church, Yellow Springs, O., writes as follows :
" l have used Dr. Miles' JKestorative JServine
for the past six months. I find it acts lke
a charm on the whole nervous system. 1
have not found its equal in giving immediate
relief. Dr. Miles' little Nerve and Liver
Pills only need a trial and they will recom
mend themselves to be the best pills in the
market."
"For five years I have suffered from Ner
vous Prostration, I was unable to work or
sleep. The first dose of Dr. Miles' Restora
tive Nervine gave me relief, and one thou
sand dollars would not cover the good it has
done me." JOHN M IN CHER, Youngs
