INHERITED NERVOUSNESS
The causes of nervous disorders are of two kinds, .predisposing and oxeiting. Heredity is a predisposing cause. A nervous patient is very liable to have a nervous child. But even with this predisposition the child will not necessarily develop any form of nervous disease without an exciting cause. It may not develop during childhood at all, but throughout life a person with an inherited predisposition to nervousness is an easier victim of all forms of nervous disorders than one without it. Worry, overwork, overstmly and excesses of all kinds are excit'npr causes and should be avoided by those who know themselves to have inherited a nervous disposition. Thir. Wood and a general run-down condition of the system are also to be avoided hy such people. Be moderate in everything, avoid worry, keep tho blood rich and red and the general health built up with a non-alcoholic tonic like Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and avoid a nervous breakdown. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills aro a general lonic with a special action on tho nerves and relievo arid correct many forms of nervous trouble. Your own dealer sells them.
