MM II ii STATES. In' Each City, Town and Smallest V llage It'S Ml C IS MMS PEOPLE WELL. Its Wiilo Use Today Over Three Continents. Tin the One Undisputed Itemed- That Cures. Ordered by Physicians Wherever One Practices. Wherever the En- G&'tCXi' Blish language Is W?1; '-vi' , spoken and English spoken and English newspapers and medical journals are read, there you t5 will find Palne's eel ery compound is or dered for all forms of weakness. At home, as well 4 as abroad, through out the United State3, in every state, city and village the one undisputed, i-trongly commended, unfailing remedy, for the spring, Is Palne's celery coin pound. As a nerve strengthener and regula tor, blood purifier and lnvlgorator, there is nothing ithat bears and rela tion or at all resembles or In any meas ure equals PaJne's celery compound. It stands iby itself, unrelated to any sar3aparllla, nervine or tonic the world has ever known, and as far superior to th':m as 'the diamond Is to ordinary glass. Its 'discovery toy Prof. Edward K. Prelps, M. D., LL. D., in the laboratory of Dartmouth medical school was as noteworthy an event In medicine a9 the wonderful cures It has effected have been remarkaible. Where everything else falls, Palne's celery ompound cures! Try It! A Berlin paper reports a conversation. Prince Bismarck had wi th a guest from Lelpslc. They were talking of happi ness, and Prince Bismarck said that If he counted the minutes of real hap piness In his life they would, perhaps, amount to twenty-four hours. These time3 of happiness were always con nected with his domestic life, and not with politics, which, he declared, was on Incessant struggle. When Ponce de Leon sought to find The fountain giving back lost youth, It may 'be that he had in mind That draught which seems to make a truth Out of the fa:ble ases old, For drinking it the old grow young; It Is Indeed, a draught of gold, Surpassing all by poets sung. The draught mentioned Is Dr. Pleree't Golden Medi' al Discovery, of course. It Is a most potent rejuvenator of the weakened and debilitated system. It drives out all poison, all Impurity, en riches the blood, and makes the old and wornout feel young and vigorous. Poneo-de-leon didn't discover It, Mut Dr. Pierce did, and he rightly named it when he called ot a "Golden Medical Discovery."

B.issuet was cool, deliberate, and pol lshed In all Mb utterances. Forrest had a deep, bass voice that seemed to come from the bottom of hie chest. Bunyon had what was called a per suasive voice. He n?'cr scolded In his sermons. Jeremiah Taylor was always very much In earnest. ' He showed the fact In his voice. Lord Bacon had a voice described by one of his contemporaries as "very smooth and oily." Henry VIII had a voice so gruff that It earned for him the sobriquet of ."bluff King Hal." Garrlck had an exceedingly flexible voice, and could mimic any one he ever heard speak. The Duke of Marlborough has a volet that, It Is said, could tie heard above the roar of artillery. Jerome of Prague was a fiery orator. His denunciation of sin and sinners were terrible no hear. Jonathan Edwards had sharp, stri dent tones that grated unpleasantly on the ears of all who heard him. Old Kaiser Wllhelm had a soft voice, and spoke ,in a soothing tone that gave pleasure to every hearer. Brignoll was known ts the "silver voiced," His tones, though not strong, were exceedingly pure and sweet. John Aadams hod a cool, deliberate way of speaking, that carried convic tion to the minds of 'his hearers. Wendell Phillips always ppoke in an ordinary tone, with very distinct articulation and careful pronunciation. Cowper ahvay3 spoke in a diffident, heskating way, as though afraid of th eifect of his words on nls auditors. Karlnelll was so idolized by his ad mirers that it was of him an English lady once exetaimed: "One God! On Farinelll!" Ko'bespleire had a thin, piping voice that was the derlsioa or Ihis enemies One of the nicknames given him wot the "Squeaker." Mozart had a very sweet voice, though it was 'by means strong. Hit conversational tones were well mod ulated and pleasing. Prince Bismarck has a very loud, harh voice, and generally speaks In a dogmatic, dictatorial way, ithit admits of no contradiction. Coleridge delivered his philosophic ut terances In an uninteresting monotone that late In life became an almost un intelligible mumble. Frederick the Great had a sneering, disagreeable voice, -that corresponds well to the cynical utterances he wat in the habit of making. Goldsmith had a singing voice ot great ipurity, and it was a treat to he.ir him render an old Irish air, whicl he did in inimitable style. Dr. Johnson 'had a loud, harsh, dicta torial voice. When excited in argument he raised his voice and overwhelmed nls opponent by Its strength. Tallyrand could throw more patho: Into a single word than another mai oould express In a dozen sentences. Hi was a master of elocution. Washington had a slow, deliberate way of Speaking. His voice was low but strong, his words were always wel chosen, and 'his tones carefully moiu lated. Ciearo had a voice so pleasant thai whenever 4t was known he was t( speak, though only In an ordinary law jase, the court Immediately filled with people. The poet Rogers had a voice so small and weak that, as he said to himself he was forced to say caustic and 111 natured things In order to make peoplt hear ihlm. Caffarelll thought so much of hi voiao that once when challenged tc .".ght a duel he refused on the groui he had no right to expose to any risk the life of so great a singer. Demosthenes had a voice naturally rough and harsh, but by assiduous car he changed lit to such an extent tha his orations were heard with exquisite pleasure by his fellow citizens. Spurjeon had a tremendous voice but seldom raised it above an ordinary con versational tone. This, however, wat sufflcljnt to fill the vast building li wnich his audiences were gathered. Henry Clay had a voice of medium strength, but of singular purity. H. ;.:!:,! with a strong Southern accent and in a pleasant, sympathetic ton. that carried the audience with hln from the start. Thomas Jefferson, it is said spoke like a professor lecturing his class. He use few gestures, and always dellverei his speechesrin a moderate tone of volc4 with little appearance of interest oi enthusiasm. Busy people have no time, and sensi ble people no inclination to use a slow remedy. One Minute Cough Cure acts promptly and gives permanent results, Chas Rogers. You make no mistake when you take DeWitt's Little Early Risers for bil iousness, dyspepsia, or headache, be cause these little pills cure them. Chas Rogers.
