HARD FOR YOUNG GIRLS.
Trying Preparation for Entrance into So
ciety- what Pajne's Celery Compound

To be graceful, entertaining, accomplished
in music and French, easy takers on topics
Of the day, yet up in ancient history this
and much more is what society expects OF
the young girls who come out " at IS or 10,
In the few years before 20 so great
change is wrought that we almost, as If
by magic, see woman, where but short
time before was only child.
II, during these critical years, constant
mental exertion absorbs blood and nerve
force, the system grows feeble and suffers
from lack OF nourishment.
The vital mistake of the thousands of
girls who yearly break down in schools and
colleges is just here: A vigorous, healthy
body and brain must have an unlimited sup
ply of pure, rich blood, fully capable Of
building up growing tissues and repairing
the waste of hard worked nerves and brain
and body.
This is just what Paines celery compound
is providing to-day for overworked, anxious,
"run down" people all over the United
States and Canada.
If care be taken that no part of the body
be poorly nourished, great deal of hard
work and study can be safely gone through.
But when young girls are seen to grow thin,
pale, spiritless, and nervous, there is plainly
starvation of some of the important organs
and craving of the blood and nerves for
better nutrition.
Paines celery compound was first pre-.
pared by Prof Edward E. Phelps NJ. D.,
LII. d., of Dartmouth college, with the
fullest knowledge of any medical man of
his day of what tired, weak, nervous
women need to make them well and strong.
The happy effects of Paine's celery COM
pound in all cases of debility. nervous
weakness, and impoverished, impure blood
are astonishing. 1t makes people well
where everything else fails
This remarkable remedy makes sickly,
feeble women strong; does away completely
with the languid feeling that comes from
underfed nerves and blood.
As sure sign of its radical effect on the
system for good, it is noticed that in short
time the eyes grow clearer and brighter, the
cheeks ruddier, and the mind more active
and hopeful.
Paine's celery compound cures dyspepsia,
sick headaches, neuralgia, rheumatism, and
every symptom of impure blood, and per-
manently cures the most difficult diseases
of the liver, kidneys and heart.
Thousands and thousands of men and
women who have taken Paines celery COM
pound are to-day perfectly well and happy.

IN A WFUL PLAGUE
Devastating Large Cities in China

Devastating Large Cities in China.
RECENT advices from Shanghai, China,
state that the plague which is raging in
Canton, Pakhoiland Hong Kong has thrown
the country into state of unparalleled
terror. Tens Of thousands of victims have
been carried off in the last few weeks. The
plague is said to be similar to the great
plague of London, which devastated that
city in 1865. 1t is frightfully rapid in its
course, death usually resulting in day, the
body turning black and swelling to thrice
its normal size. A foreign missionary in
Canton estimates that up to May 8, at least
$4,000 died Of the disease. The plague is
ascribed to the filth and abominable habits
Of the Cantonese, aided by the terrible con-
dition OF the open sewers. None of the
Europeans have been attacked by the
malady.

A SYRINGE DISEASE

Developed Among Cattle at Ware, Mass,
A STRANGE disease has appeared among
several herds Of cattle at Ware, Mass, and
many have died. The first symptoms no.
ticed were among the herd on the town
farm. The animals legs and hind quarters
became paralyzed, and death quickly en-
sued. Professor Paige made an autopsy on
one of the infected animals and found the
bowels contracted. He has taken away
the brain and several parts Of the entrails
for analysis, and will inoculate several rab-
bits with the blood Of one Of the animals,
and will report his finding in few days.
1t is said the cows have been chased by
dogs, and there is much talk OF hydro
phobia. The farmers are much worked up
about it and will spare no pains to find out
the cause Of the trouble.
