Among representative business men
OF the Northwest whom our correspond
ent called upon was Mr.. +. l.. Forward,
of Seymour, Wis, well known jobber
of hay and grain. Mr.. Forward, in an
swer to the reporters question, said:
For fully five years l was troubled
with dizziness and heavy pressure of
blood in the head. During this time |
tried nearly every remedy | could hear
of, and consulted several physicians,
but none of them were able to help me
permanently. My system seemed to
crave something all the time. the nature
OF which could not tell. | finally tried

bly, mentioned in my paper, and noticed
the benefit from the first. and its good
effects increased until my trouble en-
tirely disappeared. This discovery was
Paine's Celery Compound, and l shall
always keep some of it by me to use in

much in favor of the Compound"
Undoubtedly there is no man better
known throughout the Northwest than
Mr.. Frank A. Davis, of Faribault. Mr..
Davis is City Justice of Faribault, and
Quartermaster of Michael Cook Post,
u. A. r. We have copies of two letters
written by him-the first in 1885, and
the second in 1883. In the first letter he
writes:
Il had suffered terribly with rheuma-
tlsm and complication of ailments,
hard to bear. My condition was fearful
one leg turned up nearly to my body;
my stomach, liver and kidneys very i'm
perfectly performing their functions.
nerves unstrung, and greatly weakened
by pam. thought my days were num-
bered. L have now taken eight bottles
OF the Compound, and my pains have
left me. My liver and kidneys seem as
strong as they ever were, and my leg is
rapidly getting into its natural shape
and strength"
A STRONG STATEMENT.
1t was natural that some people were
surprised at such a strong statement,
and when it was published in this
paper, in 1885, Mr.. Davis received let
ter asking If it was true. In reply he
wrote the second letter, referred to
above, from which we quote:
MY health at the present time is bet
ter than it has been for twenty years,
and Paine's Celery Compound is what
cid the job. From the date of my letter
in 1885 up to this time | have had no
other ailments mentioned. | know of
several cures of rheumatism that the
Compound has performed in this city,
and it is very popular. 1t certainly is
one of the greatest remedies | ever used,
and l know that | would not now be
living had | not used it,"
The space of this article will not ad-
nit of our publishing all of the inter
views, but our correspondents found
that the Compound was strongly in
dorsed by Mr.. A. l.. Winship, the we'll
known piano tuner of 24S Martin street,
st. Paul; Mr.. L. r. Cass, of Ithaca,
Wis; DR.. j. IL. Hanaford and others.
OF course the merit of a proprietary
article is judged largely by its sales. In
this connection it was thought best to
visit the leading wholesale trade of the
Northwest and hear from their own lips
whether the sale of the Compound con-
firmed the many reports of our CORE
SpOndents. Members of the firms of
NOyes Bros. & Cutler, st. Paul; Ly-
man-Eliel Drug Co., Minneapolis, and
Green 81 Button Co., FL. Bosworth 81
Sons, The Chas. Baumbach Co., and
The f. Dohmen Co., of Milwaukee,
were in turn interviewed.
Messrs. Noyes Bros. & Cutler were
pleased to commend such valuable dis
covery as Paine'S Celery Compound.
They said:
AN EXPERT OPINION.
'Of the thousands of remedial agen-
cies handled by US, not one has stood
the test more satisfactorily than Paine's
Celery Compound. So far as our knowl-
edge and observation go, it stands I'M
rivaled as a brain and nerve food and
system regulator. Our sales have been
large, we having ordered each week for
some time, and we have just written the
proprietors to double our weekly ship
ments until further orders from US.
Our large sales on this article certainly
indicate that it is medicine of wonder
full merit"
MeSsrs. Green & Button Co. explained
the large and increasing sale of the
Compound to the fact that it possesses
the intrinsic merit that remedy must
have to achieve such success.
The other dealers were equally en-
phauc in their remarks.
A large number of the principal phar-
maciStS Ill st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Milwaukee were called upon. They all
spoke in warm terms of the Compound,
and a large number said that they had
heard many kind words of praise from
those who had used 1t.
H. d. Sykes, 1877 Wisconsin Street,
Milwaukee, said: II have sold Paine's
Celery Compound ever since it was first
put upon the market. / have had a good
trade for it, and 1t has given excellent
results"
Spiegel, Crolius & Co., pharmacists at
101 Grand Avenue and ISL and 1S3 West
Water Street, Milwaukee, said: "Paine's
Celery Compound enjoys steady sale,
and we have received many strong in
dorSementS from those who have used
it. We never recommend proprietary
medicines unless we are positive they
possess merit. However, we have faith
in The efficacy of the Compound and
heartily commend it."
Amongst Minneapolis druggists that
were called upon was Mr.. Edward
| Shumpik, 1921 Washington Avenue,
who said: I'VE have sold Paine's Gel
| cry Compound for some time, and must
acknowledge that we are very much
| pleased with both its sale and its merits.
| We have recommended it to several
with good results, and shall continue TO
| speak good word for it in the future"
| MeSSrs. E. Nelson & Co., of 24OO Riv-
| erSide Avenue, in answer to our re-
| porter's question, said: In our opin-
| ion Paine's Celery Compound is the
| best medicine for brain-food and re-
storer of weak nerves. Our opinion is
confined by the benefit our customers
| have received by its use."
Among the st. Paul druggists who
were interviewed upon the subject was
Mr.. Edward Morrison, of the Fairview
| Pharmacy, corner of Case and Clark
| Streets: He said: 1.-The sales of Paine's
Celery Compound are A l. 1t gives
| good satisfaction in all cases. l used it
myself for weak nerves, and it did me
a great deal of good. l have sampled a
good many medicines, but none did me
as much good as the Compound"
Mr.. ii. ?. Pettigrew, 302 Rice Street,
says: Judging from the enthusiastic
