The Wife of WeiI-Known Rail-
road Man and the Remarkable
Experience She Has Had.
Rutland, (Vt) Herald, May g.
A letter was handed in for publica-
ton at this office yesterday which con-
tanned statements of SO positive and sur
prising a nature that, before publish
lug. it was thought best to make an in
yeStigation. A representative was ac-
cordingly detailed to make careful and
searching inquiries.
He found that the writer of the letter
Is most estimable lady, OF wide &C
Quaintance in this town. The circum-
stances as she describes them are true,
and are vouched for as facts by her
neighbors and friends. Her husband is
known all through New England. He
is Conductor Cleaveland of the Central
Vermont railroad and has been with
that company for nearly twenty years.
We publish Mrs. Cleaveland'S letter in
full as received, and it is wonderful
proof of the old saying: Truth is
stranger than fiction"
RUTLAND, VT, May ), 1891.
To the Editor:
| have marvellous communication to
make, and one that | feel it my duty to
send you for publication, much as | dis
like seeing my name in print.
For three years | have been able to
walk but very little, and ii was seldom
that | could sit up over half a day at a
time. None OF the physicians seemed to
understand my case, some calling it
neuralgia OF rheumatism, while others
Ia n tn tiffAr
Any way, none of them helped me, and
after spending hundreds of dollars | be-
came utterly discouraged.
finally went to New York, where for
two months was under the care of one
of the most eminent physicians of that
city. But my sickness and helpleSSneSS
were not bettered. My husband was
talking to a friend, Mr.. w. ii. Greene,
station agent at Burlington, VT, about
my unfortunate condition, and Mr..
Greene strongly urged him to have me
try Paine's Celery Compound. ! used
three bottles, and with SO much benefit
that j continued its use. To-day l
walked down town, half mile or more,
did some shopping, called upon friend.
and then walked home. ! am doing all
my hOuseWOrk, something L have not
done before in years.
My restoration to health is solely due
TO Paine'S Celery Compound. 1t is this
medicine that has changed me from
suffering, helpless woman to my present
condition of health and strength. |
hope you will publish this letter and
spread as widely as possible the knOwl-
edge of a means that will bring health
and happiness to homes where sickness
and suffering make life burden.
Respectfully yours,
Mrs & H. CT
The above letter is remarkable enough
in itself, but the most astonishing thing
i'll this connection is that striking CO.
incidence was brought out in our in
VeStigation. Mr.. Ii. |. Dillenback, the
business manager of this paper, upon
seeing the above letter said
ut is true beyond question. l know
the Compound of which the lady speaks
and have taken it more or less during
the last six months. not for any specific
malady. but at times when my nerves
and brain were Overtaxed and when L
felt somewhat worn out by some un-
usual pressure of business.
The result has convinced me that
Paine's Celery Compound is just that
one form of tonic that all busy newspa-
per men so often feel the need of, and
IN the absence of which too many resort
to alcoholic stimulant for temporary
aid; and The Compound in no way clouds
the brain and leaves no undesirable eff
fects behind it. For that form of Sleep
lesSnesS arising from overwork COM
bined with worry and anxiety, the Com
pound in my case has been an excellent
remedy.
My wife, whose nerves are not
strong, and who has had the experience
of many mother OvertaXed by the care
of VOuDg and very active childTen com
mends the Compound in enthusiastic
terms. 1t certainly has done very much
to tone up her nervous system, to slim
ulate her appetite and to improve her
general health; and l do not know of
any other remedy she has ever used
that has done so much for her as Paine's
Celery Compound.
This is the first time / ever recon-
mended a proprietary remedy; but [
feel that it is matter of simple justice
to say what | have"
