\ PARADOX.— TO SCFFERERS. NERVOUSNESS : ITS NATURE & CURE. What 19 Nervousness?— Various answers mjght be given to this question, accordicg to the constitution and knowledge of #}c \rii dividual. Strong healthy persons, whether medically educated or not, generally regard nervousness as more or less an "imaginary complaint ;" it is sometimes only believed to be real when the patient is found to be dying or dead. The best answer to the question; probably, is this— lFeivousness is an u)i- . natural condition of the nervous system. Sometimes this unnatural state is accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh and loss of strength ; but: in most cases there is in the earlier stages of the disorder no outward sign of weakness. The sufferers are found in both sexes ; they often have the b)opm of health upon the cheek ; they arc surrounded by k|nd friends, yec existence to them has no charms, foV they feel that tljey cannot enjoy it. Without intending it, they annoy other people about the merest trifles ; if they encounter some person unexpectedly they feel confused, afraid, and alarmed ; the heart beats violently,, the hand shakes when writing, and the whole frame at times experiences a complete tremulousness. The intellect also is sometimes clouded, the i memory fails, the judgment becomes indistinct, the will capricious and undecided, the taste vitiated, the imagination broods upon unpleasant tonics, the spirits, aroyvervdow? or very excited, the ordinary duties of llfeHsecome burdensome, society is shunned, and business neglected. A Stance Spectacle.— It is certainly strange, but not the less true, tljat perfeptly sane persons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy countenance, may occasionally be met with, who, in spite of possessing all the advantages of education, religion, ample means, and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of the nervousness above described ; unhappy themselves, they render other people unhappy. Why is this ? What cause has opcrated^o change the cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting, and uncomplaining youth into the unhappy, drowsy, istjestj suspicious, and gloomy misanthrope ? Many causes,' or oue pause on|y, may operate to produce this sad state ; tho cause may be either mental or physical, or both combined. Attempts to Cure Hei'voumess by- iiiiean&pf ordinary tonics have so frequently proved fruitless that the leading physicians now for the most part recommend hygienic means, such as exercise in the open air, regular habits, spa bathing, the cold bath friction ; change of air and s^eue, a$ |n travelling. If all these fail,* as they often dp,, wjiat jsto be done"? The Answer will be found by carefully penm'mtj Die Folloiointj Work: — Ninth Edition, post freo Is 4d NERVOUS DEBILITY, ITS CAUSE AND

CURE, With Plain Directions' tor Pprfppfc Restoration |o Health. Applications for a gopy of the above work must be accompanied by the amount in New Zealand or other stamps, also a properly, di. cctcd envelope. Address — ' CHARLES SENNET, Agent, Brooklyn liouse, Fh g-sMii Gardon3, Melbourne.
