doubted. Yet investigation proves them
true.
These statements relate to the Won
derful discovery made by Prof. Phelps,
of Dartmouth college. They come from
men and women of the highest stand
ing.
They give the strongest testimony
diSinterested.
In Milwaukee, where Paine's celery
compound has larger sale than any
other spring medicine, the following
interviews were recently pl blshed and
created great many favorable COM
ments:
Mr.. Charles Willis, the popular tobac-
conist, All Third street, in answer to the
reporters question, said:
when | commenced to take Paine's
celery compound was living human
wreck; my body was reeking with pain;
could not hear; had asthma sixteen
hours out of every twenty-four: and [
had the severest headaches any human
being ever suffered with. had doctor
after doctor. but all to no avail. and
used every medicine that heard of I'M
til my room looked like drug store.
Zone day got hold of some testi-
monials for Puine's celery compound.
| studied them night after night until l
came to the conclusion to try six bottles.
thank God that did so. for it is the
only thing that ever helped me. After
| had taken two bottles the pain through
my body left me. After l took three
bottles my hearing came back. And
now that | have taken ten bottles, am,
thank God, well man."
Mr.. F. l.. Forward, of Seymour, Wis,
the .well-known jobber in hay and grain,
met with a remarkable experience,
which he describes as follows:
For fully five years l was troubled
with dizziness and heavy pressure of
blood in the head. During this time |
tried nearly every remedy l 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 l could not tell. / finally
tried discovery that has lately been
favOrably mentioned in my paper, and
noticed the benefit from the first, and
its good effects increased until my
trouble entirely disappeared. This dis
cOvery was Paine'S celery compound,
and shall always keep some of it by
me, TO use in case l should ever feel
the old difficulty returning. | feel that
l cannot say too 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 FaribauIt, and
QuartermaSter of Michael Cook Post, q.
A. R. We have copies of two letters
written by him-the first in 1885. and
the second in 1883. In his first letter he
writes:
II have suffered terribly with rheu-.
matlsm and complication of ailments
hard to bear. My condition was fear
ful-one leg turned up nearly to my
body; my stomach, liver and kidneys
very imperfectly performing their func
tons, nerves umstrung, and greatly
weakened by pain. thought my days
were numbered. l have now taken
eight bottles of the compound. and my
pains have left me. My liver and kid
neys 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 1t was published in this paper
in 1888, Mr.. Davis received a letter ask
ing 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
did the job. From the date of my letter,
in 1885, up to this time, have had 10
more trouble from rheumatism or the
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 | know that l would not now be
living had not used it,"
The space of this article will not adj
NIT of our publishing all of the inter-
views; but our correspondents found
that the compound was strongly in
dorsed by Mr.. A. l.. Nnship, the we'll
known piano tuner, of 1913 Martin street,
st. Paul; Mr.. l.. r. Cass, of Ithaca, Wis;
DR.. j. III. Hanaford, and others.

whose immense trade extends all
through the Northwest, were pleased to
commend such valuable discovery as
Paine's celery compound. They said:
"Of the thousands of remedial agen-
cieS handled by US, not one has stood
celery compound. So far as our knowl-
edge and observation go, it stands un-
rlvaled as 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 10 double our weekly ship
ments until further orders from us. Our
large sales on this article certainly indi-
cate that 1t is medicine of wonderful
merit"
Mr. j. Frederick, secretary and treas
urer of the Ryan Drug Company. stated
that their trade spoke in the highest
terms of the merits of this compound.
j. 9. Eliel. of the Lyman-Eliel Drug
Company, writes: "'Che sale of Paine's
celery compound keeps on doubling up
rapidly. Where it will end we do not
know. This phenomenal sale certainly
cannot continue unless the users of the
medicine find it all that it is advertised
to be-"
A large number of the principal phar-
maclsts IN st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Milwaukee were interviewed. all of
whom spoke in warm terms of the COM
pound, and without exception said that
they had heard many kind words of
praise from those who had used it.
Physicians Use 1t.
P.V. M. Pool, of Minneapolis. stated:
81 am selling to number of people in
half-dozen lots. Am just packing a
half-dozen bottles to send to physician
who had abandoned all hope of recovery.
His family tell me that he is now walk
ing around the house and will be out
in few days"

George c. Davenport, 963 East Seventh

present than any other two preparations
that retail at the same price. Several
