A Live Wire Every nerve. is a live wire connecting some part of the body with the brain. They are s0 numetrous that if you pene- trate the skin with the point of a needle you will touch a nérve and receive a shock—pain it is called. Aches and pains come from a pressure, strain or in- jury to a nerve ; the more prom- inent the nerve the greater the pain. When the pain comes from a large nerve it is called Neuralgis whether it be the facial nerves, ot the heart, stomach, sciatic or other prominent nerve branch. To stop pain, then, you must relieve the strain or ressure upon the nerves. r.
