FAME'S CELERY COMPOUND MAKES ONE WELL
In March, April and May nee Paine's
celery compound.
And only Paine's celery compound 1
For it is nature's remedy. t
Do not for a moment confound it
with any of the ignorant, catchpenny,
Bhort-lived patent remedies snrsapii-
rillus, nervines and tonics that bear as
much . resemblance to Paine's celery
compound as the parasite vines do to
the oaks that they live on.
Paino's celery compound cures dis
ease. It makes people well. It has
saved the lives of thousands of suffer
ers. It makes the weak strong.
It purifies the blood and enriches the
nerves.
Every condition of winter life has
been detrimental to health. There has
been a steady decline in nervous vigor.
Now thnt spring comes the body is ready
to cast off unhealthy tissues if it is onlv
given a chance. This opportunity comes
when the excretory organs, kidneys.
skin and bowels are made to work ac
tively and the nerves ure ablo to fur
nish snfllciunt energv to tho digestive
organs.
No remedy in the world accomplishes
those resultB like Paine's celery com
pound. It nourishes, regulates and in
vigorates the entire nervous system
from the brain to the minutest nerve
filament. It causes an increased appe
tite and tones up the stomach to deal
with the increased food. Its nourish
ing action is immediately manifest in
a clearing up of the muddy, unhealthy
skin, an increase in weight and more
refreshing sleep.
First discovered after laborious,
scientific research by the ablest physi
cian America has produced, Prof. Ed
ward E. Phelps, M. D. , LL. D., of
Dartmouth college, it is prescribed and
publicly indorsed by the best practi
tioners in every city in America. It
has been so enthusiastically recom
mended by grateful men and women
in every walk of life that it is today in
every sense the most popular remedy
the world ever knew.
It has proven itself the greatest of all
spring medicines.
In New York, Chicago, Philadelphia,
Boston, St. Louis and two or three,
other large cities, the leading newspa
pers, making their own canvasses again
this year, have found that the demand
for Paine's celery compound surpasses
that of all other remedies togethorl '
' Paine's celery compound, taken dur
ing the early spring days, has even
more than its usual remarkable effi
ciency in making people well. It
makes short work of disease. It rapid
ly drives out neuralgia, sleeplessness,
dyspepsia and rheumatism from the
system. It removes that lassitude, or
"tired feeling," which betokens weak
ened nerves and poor blood.
AVoinen working in close offices, sales
women tired out and nervous from long
hours' standing on their feet and wait
ing on impatient, irritating customers;
overworked, worried and disheartened
men and women everywhere will bo
astonished to find how much happier
life becomes when their nerves have
been strengthened and their blood puri- j system,
welcomed in so many intelligent, pru
dent homes where pains is taken to get
only the best in so vital a matter. In
such families all over tho country
mine's celery compound is the lirst,
last and only remedy used.
Prof. Phelps had studied the nerves
in health and disease when well
nourished and when nndcr-noiirishcd,
in men and woman and children years
before he looked for the remedy. Paine's
celery compound is the outcome of his
entire professional life. Jt is tho one
remedy that tho world could not lose
today at any price.
Paine's colery compound induces the
body to tako on solid flesh.
Physicians recognize Paine's celnry
compound as tho one scientific spring
remedy, and it is universally prescribed
by them wherever there is great need
of a vigorous and prompt restoring of
health and . strength to tho worn-out
fled by means of this great remedv
No other remedy has the heartv nn-
proval of a like body of educated men
and women and professional men, nor
has there ever been a remedy that was
Paine's celery compound is tho best
spring remedy because it is more than
a mere spring remedy. It brings about
a healthy appetite, complete digestion,
regular action of tho bowels and the
other oxorotory organs whenever taken,
whether in summer or in winter, but
as tho greatest of spring remedies it has
extraordinary opportunities for induo
ing the body to throw off morbid hu
mors that poison it and cause rheuma
tism, neuralgia, neart trouble and a
general low stato of the health, as in
spring the system is more pliable ami
chronio diseases so securely lodged in
tho system that they are with diflloulty
ousted, become more tractable.
Thousands of men and women have
found from personal experience that
Paine's celery compound makes people
well, and keeps all from sickness who
tuke it in the spring.
Many a father and mother have no
ticed the unmistakable improvement in
the health of their children from tak
ing Paine's celery compound in the
spring. . It Js the one scientifically ac
curate remedy fitted by its composition
to thoroughly purify the blood nnd dis
pel that exhausted feeling and get rid
of skin diseases, headache and fits of de
pression with which children with
weak, uurvoiis systems, as well us grown
people, are afllicted.

OVER THE PRECIPICE ;
Hosts of Invalids tumble to destruction simply
because they will exercise no discretion In tho
mutters of eating, drinking and the avoidance
of exciting causes, and, above all, In the item
of medication. They persist In dosing them
selves in season and out of season With drastic
and violent remedies, opiates and mineral
poisons. The best, the salest, the pleasantest
substitute for such hurtful no-rumedies is Hos
teller's Stomach Bitters, potent for malarial,
rheumatic, dyspeptic, nervous and bilious
complaints.

The Sliding Pole.
Firemen use the sliding poles In the
engine houses when descending from
the dormitory floors to the street floor j
about their ordinary affairs, just as i
they do when hustling down for a fire, j
It is the quickest and easiest way to i
go, and naturally they go that way al- j
ways. To a man not a fireman, how-j
ever, and so unaccustomed to It, the .
commonplace use of the sliding pole !
seems at first strange. ' He has seen It i
usually, perhaps only, from below; and I
the use of It Is associated In his mind j
with the sound of the gong, the pound- j
lng of the horses' boofs, the snapping !
of harness and the general bustle of
preparation. To see the firemen come
dropping down the sliding poles into
this scene of activity seems all right. It
seems like a part of the general scheme.
But if one who has been accustomed
only to seeing them come down the
poles in this way should happen at a
time of quiet In the house to be on an
upper floor, and instead of seeing fire
men shoot into view should see one sud
denly and silently disappear, that sight
probably would at first be surprising to
bim.
At first It seems strange to see any
man, fireman or not, slide down a pole
to start for his dinner, for Instance, but
that is what the fireman does, and it Is
Just the same if be Is going below for
any duty In the house. He goes down
the ple habitually, because that is the
simplest and easiest way to go. But
he doesn't go back that way; easy as It
is to slide down the pole, it would be
mighty hard work to shin up It. When
the fireman goes tip, then, like every
body else, he ciiiiibs the stairs. Nevr

Swept Away in a Flood.
Mr. K. V. Suialley relates In a Chi
cugo newspaper a tunning and very j
Ftvuuai experience wmcn ne under
went a few years ago In traveling lu
the Northwest. With three friends he
attempted to ford a slough of the Ya
kima Blver In Washington, In a big
wagon drawn by four horses. Mr. Smal
ley says:
The river was very high, and the
broad slough was running like a mill
race. We know that the fording-plaee
was narrow and the water deep, but
we expected nothing more serious than
to get our feet wet But when we were
about half-way across, the lead horses
got. Uielr hind .feet -over the - double
trees and became unmanageable; and
then the wagon was swept off the ford
and, Into deep water..;; . ..;
One of my friends swam ashore, and
two others climbed out of the 'tall of
the wagou and managed to keep their
footing until they were rescued. I at
tempted to get out In the same way,
but before I could do so the wagon was
wept Into very deep water, overturned,
and wagon, horses and I were soon
floundering In the current.
' I could. not swim, and gave tip all
hdpe of my 'lifer I went under water.
audi, there had a very clear experience
of what psychologists' call tbe double
consciousness. It seemed as if I were
two persdus, one a physical man. still
Intelligent enough tq struggle among
the horses, and- the other a' 'conselous
,ness thia was entirely jerene and. hap
py, looking with admiration at the
beautiful water overhead, and wonder
ing ' If the , body would come ashore
somewhere Sown the stream and be re
covered. .' ' w . . ..
k This: part of me felt quite delighted
at being released from partnership with
the other fellow. How long this lasted
I do not know. I did not have any of
that vivid recollection of all the events
of life which men restored from drown
ing usually tell about. The higher con
sciousness only felt that it was an in
dependent, spiritual .existence, now for
the first time released from dwelling in
i.'physical boJy.' '
But now the body, In Its desperate
struggles, clutched the ear of one of
; the; horses. The horse got its head
above water, and the man's head came
up with It The. nian was rescued by a
boat, and with extreme regret my hlch-
,er cthsolous'ness Was forced'io re-enter
its old dwelling-place. . ,
