NEURALGIA'S ONE SYMPTOM.
Neuralgia is a disease which has but one symptom—pain. The pain of neuralgia is sharp' and shooting with intervals of freedom. An attack of neuralgia does not give immunity, but recurrences are the rule. The same nerve i s generally affected which means that this particular nerve has lost its resistance, and that there will be recurring attacks until the strength of the nerve is built up. How can the strength of a nerve be restored ? The nerves are nourished entirely by the blood, and weak nerves are toned up by supplying to the blood the elements that the nerves lack. As the general health and strength of the patient are built up the nerves resume their normal functions, inflammation caused by lack of nutrition disappears, and the neuralgic attacks cease. Br. "Williams' Pink Pills are a tonic exceptionally well suited for the treatment of neuralgia because they contain no alcoholic stimulant, or habit-forming drugs.
