PAROXYSMS OF PAIN.
A Definition of What Neuralgia Is and the Discovery of It's Cause = Something of
 TntarASt

If there is anything which the people of America suffer from more than any other it is neuralgia. Strictly speaking, neural gia means "nerve pain," but there are probably thousand ways by which it manifests itself. Anyone who has ever suffered from it does not need to be told what it is SO far as agony is concerned. It is almost unbearable. It is the worst of all known pains. It drives many people insane. It's causes are many.
 Neuralgia is often inherited, but more frequently it arises from disordered ner- vous system. It may be months before the distinct paroxysms come, and then ot all pains it is the worst. At first the at tacks may be weeks apart gradually they increase in frequency. Sometimes there may be entire freedom from pain in the intervals between the attacks. Often the skin is red and feverish. It may be sev- eral years in developing, the attacks being gradually more severe and we'll defined. If neglected it becomes @ chronic disease, and if neglected too long. almost incurable.
 As neuralgia arises wholly from nervous derangement, child can see that in order to cure it the nervous system must be re- newed. It is easy to say this, but the question naturally arises :: How can I renew my health, my nerves 2" Not by nervines, sarsaparillas or decoctions. It requires something that is far advanced beyond all of these things, something that is an absolute discovery. There is but one thing that fills this requirement., and that is the great discovery of Professor Phelps, known as Paine's Celery Compound. This compound really marks distinct era in medical practice and in the treatment es- pecially of neuralgia. It does not act as other o-called remedies act. It goes di rectly to the seat of the disease, and treat ing it at it's source cures it completely. Ii you would like to know what others have found this to be, here is what some have to say
 "Having taken Paine's Celery Com pound in bad case of nervous headache and it having relieved me of that plague ir short time, advise every person wht has nervous diseases to take it.

 ''For the last six years have been af eral debility, and all that time have beer drugged with morphine and quinine t. kill the pain, but no cure.

 "One Monday morning the latter part o March there was nothing to me but pail and weakness. I had no appetite an could not have eaten anything if I ha wanted to-. And my head-how it di ache ! The doctors didn't help me, and wouldn't have given snap of the finger for my chances to live. l finally though of Paine's Celery Compound, which ha cured me once3before, when sick and sui fering. Every dose I took gave ID strength and to-day am well and strong I attribute my recovery entirely to Paine Celery Compound. Yours truly,
 R. S. STYLES, Burlington, Vt."
 Is it not plain that this great discover becomes God-send to the neuralgia su ferer Is it not clear that anything whic can relieve headache, cure neuralgia az banish pain is a blessing!
