To Rev. b. s. Crosby
Dear Sir: | do not know what i'm
pels me to write to you except that you f,
| too, are Interested in the Affections OF
| humanity. | saw In 4 paper that you
| and your wife had found relief, and so
| concluded to write you, as you said
You would gladly answer any one.
| | was born in Cambridge, Mass.
was graduated from the Hayerhil high
school, four years ago, since which
time | have been in poor health Not
that have been really i'll, but ailing-a
half way between sickness. | have
been dOctoring ever since graduated,
with different physicians. am better
II some ways, worse in others.
First | used TO have a terrific ache at
the base Of the brain-at the medulla
OblOngata, and also up and down the
spine, but that wore away and gave
place to stomach trouble which the
doctor called dyspepsia. ! took medi-
cine and dieted for two years. Well.
my stomach grew slightly better. But
next my nerves began To trouble me,
and then the doctor said had nervous
dyspepsia. and | have been taking medi-
cine for that until the present time.
But, Brother Crosby, | don't get the

Now, what is your candid opinion of
that Paine's celery compound you used?
DO you think 1t will help me?
Mamma seems favorably inclined to-
ward it, but you have used it and know
the value of it.
Is the effect lasting? Or is it merely
stimulant. the effects wearing away as
soon as you cease taking the medicine?
You are stranger to me lin one sense),
but we are both members of the same
large family. and | know you will be
Interested as such.
Thanking you for your interest in all
who do not enjoy good health, of which
am one, | remain, Yours sincerely,

1t gives me great pleasure to answer
your letter of inquiry about Paine'S Gel
cry compound. First, from your de-
scription, ] should say that Mrs. Crosby
was about like yourself, and the COM
pound cured her. When she began TAX
ing it she weighed 9G pounds; now she
weighs ll6 pounds, and We claim the
compound did it.
Second, as tor myself, the physicians
said that had complication of all
mentS, but the most of them decided
that it was lumbago and nervous pros
tration. One thing is certain, | was
very badly off and suffered untold
misery for a long time-sO nervous |
could not sleep, and many night was
obliged to sit up, for | had such severe
pains | could not lie down. | sincerely
believe had not taken this medicine, |
would not be alive today. | am now
perfectly well, have no pain in my
back, and my nerves are all right.
When | began using Paine's celery
compound | weighed 1876, now | weigh
l52.
Third, when | came here in Septem-
Der. one of the young ladies in my Bible
class was very poorly with stomach
trouble, in fact was sick in bed. She
began taking Paine's celery compound
through my influence. and now does
most of the Homework FOR six in the
family.
wish you would give it thorough
trial, for | think you will get relief. |
consider it the best medicine ever made.
| speak from what know it has done
for me and many others. 1 could write
you pages, telling you what it has done
for friends. receive many letters of
inquiry about it, i am not paid for an
swering these letters and have no in
terest in the business. am simply try
ing to help humanity and | feel that
while helping people by recommending
the compound. am only preaching the
gospel with the pen, and doing unto
others as would wish to be done by.
Trusting that you will find relief and
be spared yet many years, | remain
Yours sincerely,
Rev. b. S. CROSBY.
This remarkable correspondence must
be of the greatest value and benefit to
hundreds. Miss +. feelingly describes
symptoms that are common to nearly
every one at this season. Rev. Mr.
Crosby points out the remedy, and docs
to others as he would wish TO be done
by" He knows a true strength-giver,
and all who are weak, run down. and out
of health, should follow his advice.
The renewing and invigorating power
of this great compound is marvellous,
and it holds, today. its true place in the
esteem of physicians and the public, be-
ing universally acknowledged the best
spring medicine in the worli. I'M
equaled for the cure of disease and the
imparting Of strength.
