he Boston Journal Asks, "What
the Remedy"
ind Finds the Answer Not a
Hard One.
A Quarter of All Deaths Due tt
American Disease.

| The Boston Journal is certainly TO
be admired.
One of Boston's greatest news
papers, it frankly devotes some of it's
energetic editorial space to the sub
ect, which at this season is OF more
Importance to this and every COM
munity than all other topics.
zone hears the voice of the man
whose knowledge of nerves is almost
unbounded," says the Journal, say
ing that beyond any dispute nervous
ness is growing upon us at frightful
rate
Quoting from DR., Weir Mitchell it
continues: "In some busy centers he
finds that the number of deaths due
to nervous causes has increased 20 per
cent. in 40 years: that one-fourth OF
the deaths now are from nervous
diseases. His opinion is very conf
dent, too that the Americans are,
f rom this cause, becoming short
lived people"
A clear statement of the nervous
weakness among the jewellers in cities
and towns would send a pang Of
horror and alarm through the
country.
Women are more under the influence
of this terrible scOurge than men; and
town jewellers more than country
folk.
The Journal asks what is the remedy,
and finds an answer readily.
Hundreds of tired mothers, anxious
housewives, school teachers and too
ambitious scholars very flower OF
American womanhood-yield to the
strain of the serious affairs of life.
OyerwOrk and unnatural worry con-
denim a host of American women to
spend their after years on sofa or in
sick room, and to be a burden in
stead of a help to those who are dear
est to them.
Oftentimes eXcruciating pain as in
neuralgia, rheumatism, and heart
trouble, but more often especially in
the spring. ''that tired feeling" is
natures cry for better nutrition in
order to resist the fearful strain on
the nerves and vital organs. The
remedy is known to every physician
and to thousands who have been bene-
flied by it. Men and women who find
themselves getting irritable, nervous,
thin, run down" and ailing should
take Paines celery compound. 1t
feeds tired, exhausted nerves, stores
the blood with food for the wasted
tissues, and purifies it of the impure
humorS which result from its stag
nant, unhealthy condition.
Nothing has ever equaled Paine's
celery compound for giving tone to the
stomach and renewed appetite. 1t
strikes to the root of rheumatism,
neuralgia, diseases of the heart, the
liver, kidneys, and all disorders due to
poor, thin, blood and underfed nerves.
Poor appetite, continual headaches,
loss OF SUfengtn, nervous QeDlllUy, ana
a scrofulous, unhealthy condition of
the skin at this season are sure signs
of nervous weakness.
Paine's celery compound willrob one
of the run down" feeling, the languor
and dependency that comes from
badly nouriShed nerves, thin, pale
blood, and underfed organs of the
body.
New life, buoyant feeling, and
the joyousness of health will come
when plenty of good red blood begins
to fill the arteries and invigorate the
system.
This is just what Paine's celery COM
pound is doing for thousands of tired
men and women throughout the whole
extent Of the country.
