Alfected----Case Baffled Poctors For Thee Yeags. Trenton, Ont., April 2 A very in. teresting report has been received from Mrs. Pringle in regard 'to her recovery from. partial paralysis. This | was a most extreme case, for doclors had been trying for three years find something which. would restore the depleted nerve force. One can scarcely imagine stronger evidence of the restorative influence of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. Mrs, C. Pringle, Queen Trenton, Ont., writes: 4 "About five years ago I was trou: bled with my stomach, there wasya sort of paralyzed feeling' across 1t and up my. left side, and my heart seemed almost to stop beating. 1 Jealled in the Doctor, and he thought it was symptoms of a stroke. My stomach kept getting worse. At times the pounding would be intense, al- most unbearable, and' I thought I would go wild. Sleep was out of the question. I tried different doctors, giving each one a fair trial, and doe- 9 toring nearly three years. My case seemed to bafflé them. It was a ner- vous breakdown caused by overwork and worry. During all this time I could not do any work, and my friends thought it was a matter of time Bog long I would live. Sonre one advised me to try something to build up the system, and I tried dif- ferent medicines. Finally 1 thought 1 would try Dr. Chase's Nerve and see if they would do me any good. A famous doctor sanctioned 'my using these pills, and told me they would he good for me.
