Checotah Enquirer Shona Baferd, Publishers CHEROOTAH, OKLA. Shattered Nerves. Many people complain of shattered nerves. Very frequently this malady 18 caused by the overwork of body and brain. Bad sleep or no sleep at all is one of the prominent symptoms of shattered nerves.

A weary and yet restless feeling during waking hours, both day and night, is a similar symptom. Excessive irritability, instead of good temper, 1 is another symptom. A strong tendency to think the worst of everything, rather than the best, is another symptom. A wish for death, rather than life, with guch a state of body and mind, is not uncommon. A strong Idea that we are somebow wrong and cannot get rigbt, is another symptom.

Fear and foreboding of evil lg another. What we have cated as the symptoms will indicate that the mind has a great deal to do with all auch cases. Frequently, says the New York Weekly, It is the mere idea, elrongly Axed, which works all the harm. If the mind could banish its deprossion, the same nerves that have been set down as hopelessly shattered may turn out to be quite sound and good by the act of changed 1bought. But to do good work one must have adequate rest.

More and better work la done by a good sleeper, who daily takes at least eight hours of sound sleep, than by one who forces himself to do less. But even if this were not true, it would still be certain that it is ruinous to life's grandest ands to deny the nerve-system that on which Its healthy state depends.
