Will Lay an Eminent Man on the
Shelf-HOpe of His Friends.
NEW YORK, May 15.-The friends of
an official holding one of the highest po-
sitions in the local government are still
hopeful that he may recover from the
nervous disorder from which he is at
present suffering, and refuse to believe
that his case is in any way as serious as
has been intimated, announces the
Daily Continent. 1t is certain that the
eminent gentleman has always led a
regular life, considering the exacting
nature of the occupation he has fol-
lowed for so many years, and that he
had splendid physique to begin with.
This, it is claimed, has been but slightly
impaired. Then, again, he is only forty
years OF age, and his malady has reached
but its first stage. These are the points
in his favor.
Yesterday was the first time that he
has been down town for weeks. He
came down in a cab to his lawyers Of
fee on Park Row, and chatted brightly
and bravely, with hope as to an early
Improvement in his physical condition.
HIS PECULIAR MALADY.
state that it is the result OF overwork.
His position has been gained at the ex-
pense of his vitality, his longevity, his
life-force. Now he is nervous. restless.
sleepless, with feverish feeling, and
has periodic headaches. This trouble is
the penalty paid by enterprise, ambition
and activity. Is it worth the price?
His dangerous condition, unless con-
trolled, will soon run into condition of
nervous proStrati0n worse than death
itself, There will be a difficulty in
thinking, trouble in remembering the
names and faces even of friends, aud
loss of control of the muscles of the legs
His distressing condition has been the
chief topic of conversation in political
and club circles, and a physician, in
speaking of it, said: TOO often the vic
tim of this terrible condition seeks to
lants. Nothing could be worse. His
system needs soothing, toning. and
building up. Something unusual is de-
handed. [ remember the case of a
friend of mine, man who is prominent
in Wall street. He had this same trou-
bic, and when StimulantS made him
worse. he turned to Paine's Celery Com
pound, which | recommended. He soon
found his nervous system in better
shape, appetite returned, his sleep was
resting and refreshing, and he was re-
stored to his former vigor, energy. and
vitality.
HIS SUCCESSOR.
Il understand that in this present
case which New Workers are discussing.
his medical advisers have just COM
menced the use of Paine'S Celery Com
pound, and am confident that our emf
nent friend will soon be restored to
health and vigor, aid be able to do, if
anything. even more work than before.
| make this assertion boldly. for | be-
lieye that this Compound is able tC de-
liver men and women who are suffering
from weakness Of any kind, nervous
ness, nervous prostration, or general
debility, and restore them to perfect
health, perfect Vigor. ambition, and
strength"
If the doctor is right in his statements,
there will be no vacancy in the Depart
ment for some time to come, and all the
talk abont the man who is to be pro-
NOTED will come to naught.
