Maya Devi was married when she was only 4 years old, and she became a widow when she was only five. At that time she did not realise what tragedy had befallen her. She was a child and was loved by both, her parents and her in-laws.
However, when she became young, the stark reality of widow-hood in an Indian home stared her straight in the face. She could not eat good food, nor wear good clothes. She could not go in any society and could not have any friends. She could not even enjoy a walk in open air, and she could not remarry. In short, all sources of joy were denied to her once and for all. She was only to lead an existence of drudgery, doing house hold work for the rest of life. These restrictions literally throttled her. She felt cheated and wronged. What was her fault? Why was she singled out for this shaby treatment? The thought haunted her and she became depressed and morose. She lost her appetite, could not sleep at night, and started thinning out.
Fear gripped her mother when she saw her unfortunate daughter’s face. She also realised that she could not get her any relief from society.
She took her to a sage who was able to give a twist to her mind towards religion and spirituality, and advised her to recite God’s name day and night which would keep her spirits high. In order to make her independent for her worldly needs, he advised her to resume her studies. In due course of time she completed her Teacher’s Training course and got an appointment in a local school. The good sage had successfully changed Maya Devi’s mental state, from Negative to Positive Sweet Chestnut state, but her physical weakness persisted. A combination of Sweet Chestnut and Olive was prescribed T.D.S for 1 week, after which Maya Devi lived a happy contented life.

Mrs. Talwar was a very capable person. Well educated and very efficient in her household work. But there was one snag–she could not get up from the bed in the morning.
She came to the dispensary one morning and was visibly upset when she complained “Doctor, my husband left for office this morning without eating anything, because I could not give him even a cup of tea. You see, I get up from sleep early in the morning, but cannot leave the bed for hours together. I want to get up, but something holds me back and I feel too weak to leave the bed. Once I get up and start doing work, I can accomplish all work without difficulty & without exhaustion. But can you give me some tonic which can arouse me from the morning inertia.
HORN BEAM given only 3 times in a day provided the necessary tonic which removed her morning inertia, and she could leave the bed at will.
