TI hat is- Nervousness ?— Various answers might be <nven to this question, according to the constitution and knowledge of the individual. Strong healthy persons, whether medically educated orr not, generally regard nevousness as more or less an " imaginary complaint;" it is sometimes only believed to be real when the patient is either dying or dead. The best answer to the question, probably, is this—nervous ness IS AN UNNATURAL CONDITION OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM. Sometimes this unnatural state is accompa nied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh and loss of strength ; but ill most cases there is in the earlier stages of the disorder no outward sign of weak ness. The sufferers are found in both sexes; they often have the bloom of health upon their cheek ; they are surrounded by kind friends, yet existence to them has no charms, for they feel that they 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 clonded, the memory fails, the judgment becomes indistinct, the will capricious and undecided, the tates vitiated, the imagination broods upon unpleasant topics, the spirits are either' very low or very excited, the ordinary duties of life become burdensome, society is shunned and business ne glected. . , ■ , A Strange Spectacle.— lt is ncertaily strange, butnot the less true, that perfectly sane persons in the prune of life, with ftrm 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 tins. What cause has operated to change the cheerlui, active, obliging, unsuspecting, and uncomplaining voutli into the unhappy, drowsy, listless, suspicious, "and gloomy misanthrope ? Many cases, or one cause only, may operate to produce this sad state : the cause may be either mental or physical, or both combined. Attempts to cure nervousness by means of ordinary tonics have so frequently proved fruitless that tne leading physicians now for the most part recommend hyenic means, such as exercise in the open air, regular habits, sea bathing, the cold bath friction; change of air and scene, as in travelling. If all these fail as they often do, what is to be done ? The Answer will be found by carefully perusing the following Work :— Ninth Edition, Post Free, Is. 4d. Nervous Debility : Its Cause and Cure.
