Description: I dug this bottle myself very close to the old South Carolina State Asylum in downtown Columbia, SC. It’s 9” tall by 4 1/2” x 2 3/8” wide. No cracks or chips. It’s in great condition! The Palisade Manufacturing Company, based in Yonkers, New York, produced your Kola-Caroinette bottle between 1898 and 1902. This company was involved in making a variety of products, including this particular tonic, which was marketed as beneficial for conditions like neurasthenia, nervous dyspepsia, and general debility, among others. The tonic contained ingredients like kola and cereal phosphates, reflecting the era’s common use of medicinal tonics for a range of ailments. Neurasthenia is a term that was historically used to describe a medical condition characterized by general fatigue, anxiety, headache, heart palpitations, high blood pressure, neuralgia, and depression. This condition was commonly associated with nerve exhaustion or a lack of nerve energy, believed to be caused by the stress and pace of modern industrial society. It was first defined in the late 19th century and was especially prevalent as a diagnosis in the United States and other Western countries during that era. Nervous dyspepsia, also known as functional dyspepsia, is a condition characterized by chronic or recurrent pain in the upper abdomen, bloating, and feeling full quickly after starting to eat, without an obvious physical cause. It is thought to be related to a disruption in the normal functioning of the gut but is influenced by psychological factors such as stress and anxiety. Treatment often involves lifestyle changes, dietary adjustments, and sometimes medications to manage symptoms.
