The Body Gains Rapidly in
Weight and Strength,
FROM THE GREATEST OF ALL NERVE AND
BRAIN RESToRERS.
Paine's Celery Compound Makes People
Well.
Watch the Crowded Streets Of
Any Large City.

By far the finest portrait galleries in
the world are the crowded streets of a
large city.
"What serious, tired expression on
most every facew one can't help saying
to himself. 1t is rare that one goes by
that does not wear something of that
strained, worn look; and how many
more pale lips there are than rosy ones.
How often the eyes are dull, the flesh
fiabby, and that tell-tale line from the
corner of the lip to the angle of the nose,
drawn painfully deep.
Poor health is unmistakable to the
most casual observer. When the body
is but poorly filled out with flesh, and
a feeling of languor pervades the sys-
tenn, plainly there is something lacking
in the vital, nutritive powers. Impure
blood is keeping the tissues poorly fed
and starvingly vitalized.
Get the blood pure with Paine's celery
compound and languor and debility
will leave the body. Restore the ner--
vous energy to the brain and nerve cells
and good spirits and vigor will take the
place of dependency and moodiness.
Backaches, persistent headaches, that
general feeling of fatigue, neuralgia,
rheumatism, and heart weakness that
shows itself in frequent palpitation-
are all but various symptoms of ner-
vous organization badly nourished.
Paine's celery compound promotes the
healthy activity of the organs that
make the blood and keep it pure. The
weak parts of the body are thus en-
abled to build themselves up when this
magnificent nerve and tissue builder is
employed. The complete recovery and
repair of the diseased organs in this
way goes on rapidly, naturally, and
the happy results are permanent. The
effect of the intelligent use of Paine's
celery compound in all wasting and de
bilitating diseases is to check at once
the decline in strength, and to keep the
tissues from neutrality-suspicious..

CONDITIONS.

The physicians will not make visits outside
the city limits. THIS ticket is not transfer
able, and does not apply to the family of the
employee, and must be returned soon as
the term of employment ceases. This privi-
lege is a free gift of the company and is no
part of the contract for wages, and may be
made void by the company, at its own OPP
inion, without notice.
This is practical illustration of Mr..
Douglas idea, and will surely be appre-
cated by the hundreds who receive the
cards. He says that he believes there
are hundreds of workingmens md work
ingwomen who find doctors bill a
great burden after period of enforced
ldleness, and if this is lifted from them
they must feel that their employer is
interested in them in some other way
than simply to get all the work he can
for just as little money as he can. He
says also that there are men and
women who keep right at work when
it would be better for their health if
they would lay off a day or two and
have medical attendance. Then again
they will feel free to consult the doctor
when they have slight troubles, which
heretofore they would not dobecause of
the cost. The plan goes into effect to-
day. DR.. S. J. Gruver has been en-
gagged as the physician and enters upon
his, duties tomorrow. The plan is a
good one. Speaking of the w. L..
Douglas Shoe Co., it may be said that
their factory is the only one in the city
where the principle of arbitration is
recognized and has full sway. Mr..
Douglas is a firm believer in the princi-
pie and has been since the establish
ment of the state board of arbitration
He claims that labor troubles would
not be as frequent as they are if manu-
facturers and help would recognize this
great principle and adopt it. The firm
obliges every man who is hired to sign
an agreement to submit any disagree
ment that may arise, and which can
not be settled by the interested parties,
to the state board of arbitration, the de-
cision of that board to be final and to
be binding on both sides. Pending a
settlement of any disagreement the
men agree to continue at work. This
agreement went in force December 10,
1888, and has worked well. 1t is signed
by the l.. P. U. on behalf of the lasters.

/ From Brockton Enterprise. !

From Brockton Enterprise.
William l.. Douglas, the president of
the world-famed w. l.. Douglas Shoe
Co., has always had great personal in
terest in the army of men and women
who inhabit the great factory at Mon
tello during the working hours of the
day, and who make the greatly adver-
tised So shoe. He is great believer in
the idea that manufacturers should
have this personal interest i'm the condi-
ton of their employees; and feels that if
the idea is carried out to the extent
that is possible, that it will result ulti-
mately in the breaking down of the bar
riers which have been built up between
employers and those whom they en-
ploy. He believes that the breaking
down of these invisible but strong bar
riers would be great thing for every
body concerned, as it would convince
the workingmen that their employers
were not their enemies, as some of them
seem to think now, but their friends,
with a desire to do all for them that
was in their power. Having strong
feelings on this point, it is only natural
Mr.. Douglas should give the matter
some study and acquaint himself with
the result of the trials of such plans in
other places. He is satisfied that the
scheme he has originated is good one,
and he has now put it to practical test
To-day he handed to every person in
his employ-and they form small
army-a card, facsimile of which is
here given:

From plain facts adduced this even-
ing there can be little doubt that Fred.
srick Il. Baker the accompiice OF de-
faulter Seeiey of the Shoe & Leather
National bank, had planned to commit
suicide. When his box at the Park
National bank was examined it was
found that no later than October 4th,
last, MIR. Baker had taken out
two insurance policies for 10000 each
with the Equitable Life Insurance COM
pany. II was found that these policies
were incontestible, a premium of 500
being paid to make them go. The two
policies were mace payable to Baker's
wife. They are not rendered invalid
because OF Bakers suicide. He
had tried to insure in several
companies but failed because the COM
panies would not etrike out the suicide
clause in the policy. So far as could be
ascertained this evening. ii is thought
that Baker had at least 500, 900 worth OF
incoutestible insurance on his life.
