Dr. Miles' Restorative .
x Makes the Weak Strong
A sick man cannot be happy ; he cannot accompl ish
the work he lias to do in this world ; he loses the very
object he is striving to attain ? his ambition defeats it C2
self. The man who comes to his task in the morning
with a headache ; who suffers all the day from dullness
and drowsiness , who < joes ; to his meals without an ap
petite and tosses restles-ly throtish the night without
sleep is not likely to Icive a competence for his widow
and orphans. Any man who discovers that his strength
and energy are .giving way , has an unfailing means of
regaining his physical health and stamina in the sim
ple vet all-potent restorative power ol that wonderful
nerve food and melicine , Dr.Miles' Restorative Neivinc.
It makes the thin plump , the pale riully. and the weak-
strong. It nourishes and fortifies the body and restores
e ?
health.
