Here is the testimony of thousands OF
others.
Paine's celery compound feeds the nerve
tissues, banishes lassitude. debility, lnaplllty
to sleep. and prevents nervous prostratlon.
When an ~overworked and worried brain
worker, no matter whether student, Lawyer,
minister. or man of business. has sufflciently
sinned against the laws of health, he begins
to suffer from disturbances of heart n
stomach and to have certain signs OF nervous
exhaustion. He works with less ease, sleeps
badly. New symptoms come; giddiness,
dimness of sight, neuralgia of face or scalp,
with entire nights of slesplessness. Many a
man struggles on, ignorant of the terrible
demands he is making or an exhausted
brain.
Diseases of the nervous system do not
come without warming. rheumatism, dys-
pepsia diseases of the heart, liver and
kidneys are loud cries for a prompt increase
of nourishment for the brain and nerve
centres. This feeding with just the food
these vital parts Graves is what Paine's eel
cry compound does. 1t is upon this marvel
Gus power of nourishing all the nervous
tissues and purifying the blood that its re-
markable cures depend.
Its action is perfectly ineligible to every
well educated physician. and that is just
WHY Paine's celery compound is, SO unhesi-
ia tingly prescribed by physicians in every
city, town or village, without exception, in
the United States and Canada.
It supplies rich, new blood, full of brain
and nerve food; it feeds WORKOUT nerve
centres and exhausted tissues wherever the
freshly enriched blood stream goes. The
languor and tired feeling that without ex'
ception accompanies thin, lifeless blood, van
ishes; the spirits are raised and a new feel
ing of health and life declares the presence OF
pure blood and well fed nerves and brain.
