; . NERVOUS BREAKDOWN :.. : :' ■'. CANNOT - BE CURED ; BY TONICS, DRUGS, OK MEDICINES. I Nothing so remarkable as the unanimity with which eminent doctors and ; scientists Irom all parts of the world declare that medicines and tonics are absolutely useless—in fact, harmful—in the treatment of Nervous Disorders; and ' . that permanent relief can alone be found > n specially selected nerve nutrition has ever been known in. the history of the Art of Healing. Medical men have long realised that the man or woman with n weakened nervous system can only recoup lost-energy, by supplying the nerves with the. special food essential to their v;cllbeing, viz., Lecithin. ' ...'...,.. Lecithin forms (ho principal substance of the Brain Cells, Spinal Marrow, ar.il NerM Tissues, and is contained in the blood milk, eggs, as well as in vegetable and animal organisms. But Lecithin constitutes on? of tho most sensitive organic elements, easily neutralised by bacteriological and chemical action, and ! although its value, as the natural nerve.-an'' brain food has boon known for a generation- past, tho means, of administering it in a'purc and nssimilahlo form ■ have, not ■ been attained, until after years of research work Dr. Hartmann, of Rerlin, was enabled to produce a preparation containing a. perfectly pure, isolated | and actively organic Lecithin in a highly.assirnilablo form. Tho ' announcement ' of the, discovery under the name of j • ANTINEURASTHIN, . claiming, as it did. to have overcome what had up to the moment been -non-. . • sidcrcd an-insurmountable obstacle in the treatment of nervous disease and irregularities created considerable interest-amongst mcdieaLmen-and.scientists on the Continent. ■■-.■:■ In order to nlacc'llib certainty of Ibe discovery beyond all doubt, Dr. Hartmann agreed to most drastic tests being carried out by independent; authorities, , and as being one of the greatest authorities on nerve and brain diseases, I PH. LION, ' DIRECTOR OK THE IMPERIAL STATE HOSPITAL TOR EPILEPTICS AT ' ST. PETERSBURG, was chosen to carry out the investigation. Dr. Lion selected from the State Hospital several cases which were'looked upon as s ■■ - HOPELESS OP. CURE, ; | ■ and in the short spare of two weeks showed the astonishing results embodied in the report given below. ; CASE I,' > ' Student, 1!) years .of. age. representing a typical ease of Neurasthenia; general emaciation, weakness, inertia, .as a rule depressed- mental condition, extreme ir- ] ritability, violence, changeable, and abrupt, humour, inability to work persistently, ; rapid fatigue, weakness of memory, loss of appetite, tendency to constipation, insomnia. After having taken Dr. Hartmann's "Autiueurasthrn" for a. fortnight the results were as follow: Firstly, an .increased nppot.iln and sleep wore, observed, in ■ addition constipation had disappeared and so had his tendency to lire rapidly of his work, thus producing an increase in his working capacity. His temper has beeome more equable, calm, persistent, and generally his self-confidence has remarkably improved. i CASE LI. The patient, a. girl, tD years of ago, is suffering from hysteria, which shows itself in a general state of Nervousness, sudden changes in her disposition, she frequently has crying and laughing spasms, and now and then is subject to convulsive fits. This is" due to hereditary causes. General emaciation and -weakness, loss of appetito and even aversion to food. Obstinate constipation. After taking Dr. Hartmann's "Antineurasthin," three- tablets a day for a fortnight, the results' are as follow: visible generally improved nutrition, considerable "improved aopeHte and. disappearance of constipation. Tho skin and mucous membranes havo assumed a more normal colour. Tho patient is feeling much better and much more chearfnl. She is less excited than Wore by her surroundings, and, in consequence, her disposition is moro even and quiet. ' " CASE 111. A girl, 24 years of age, epileptic and also suffering from very pronounced Anaemia, general debility, constant headaches, and constipation. There are some indications of an affection of the right apexes of the. lungs, vesicular breathing, slight dullness, accelerated respiration, now and then in tho evening a slight riso Of temperature. No tuberonlosus bacilli are found in the sputum. 1 For a fortnight the patient was given three tablets daily of Dr. Hartmann's "Antineurasthin. ' The. result: an improvement in her general condition as regards appetite and sleep and a certain increase of strength. Particularly striking, however, is the change in the solf-conhdenco of the patient; her dejected mood has given place to a. cheerful and lively i'ramo of mind. Tho tendency to constipation has also become less. c\ci7 TV The patient, a female, 2R years of age, is suffering from epilepsy. In addition to frequent epileptic fits, and occasional mental depression, the following symptoms a.re observable: general emaciation (weight W the body fltlb.). remarkable chlorosis of the skin and mucous membranes, complete loss of appetite, and tendenev to constipation. After meals fullness of the stomach. As a rule her temperature is below the average, 'varying from 36.5—38deg. The patient wa.s ordered Dr. Hartmann's "Antineurasthin," three tablets daily. As the result of three weeks' treatment, the patient's appetite has considerably improved, the constipation which formerly ' would not yield to any treatment has disappeared, and thanks to improved nutrition and assimilation of food, her weight has increased to 1021b. The skin and mucous membranes have assumed a more rnddy hue. Just as in tho previons ease, her solf-confidenco has strikingly improved. CASE V. The patient, is a woman of K years of age (chronic dipsomaniac) characterised by pronounced physical and pretty considerable mental exhaustion.

Complete less of appetite and catarrhal symptoms of the gastrointestinal ranal. regurgitation, heartburn, sickness, feeling of fullness in (he stomach after meals, neglected obstinate, constipation. Her powers are considcrablv diminished, so that the patient soon tires of physical and, in narticular, of mental work. High irritability. Her mental condition is ■depressed, hypochondriac. Sho sleeps badly and often suffers from Insomnia. Having' taken Dr. Hartmann's "Antineurasthin" fpr thieo weeks, three tablets daily, the following result is shown; Considerable inrreaso in mental energy, and decreased liability to fatigue, and consequently an increase of bert working ability-. Her appetite has been me good, the assimilation of food having E improved. so that the feeling of pressure and other symptoms after meals have £ become less notireable. Constipation has decreased and, Insomnia, disappeared. 6 .lust as in nrevions rases, a sudden change for the better in is ob- B served, her general frame, of mind being niurli more cheerful.
