NERVE DEATHS.
The Number Growing
at a Frightful Rate.
The Proportion Has Increased
20 Per cent. in 40 Years.
The Boston Journal Asks,
"What the Remedy?'
And Finds the Answer Not a
Hard One.
4 Quarter of All Deaths Due to
American Diseases.

American Diseases.
The Boston Journal is certainly to be adj
mired.
One of Boston's greatest newspapers, it
frankly devotes some of its energetic edi-
torial space to the subject which at this
season is of more Importance to this and
every community than all other topics.
Gone hears the voice of the man whose
knowledge Of nerves is almost ~unbounded,"
says the Journal, Saying that beyond any
dispute nervousness Is growing upon us at a
frightful rate.n
Quoting from DR.. Weir Mitchell it contin-
ues: SIN some busy centres he inc that the
number of deaths due to nervous causes has
increased 20 per cent. in 30 years: that one
fourth of the deaths now are from nervous
diseases. His opinion is very confident, too.
that the Americans are. from this cause, be-
coming a 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 house
wives, school teachers and too ambitious
scholars-the very flower of American
womanhood-yied to the strain of the seri-
GUS affairs of life. Overwork and unnatural
worry condemn a host of American women to
spend their after years on a sofa or in a sick
room, and to be a burden instead of a help
to those who are dearest to them.
Oftentimes excruciating pain as in neu-
ralgia, rheumatism and heart trouble, but
more often especially in spring. ''that tired
feeling, y is natures cry for better nutrition
in order to resist the fearful strain upon the
nerves and vital organs. The remedy is known
to every physician and to thousands who
nave been benefited by it. Men and wome
who find themselves getting irritable, nerv-
Gus, thin, run down" and ailing should take
Paine's celery compound. 1t feeds tired, *
hausted nerves, stores the blood with food
for the wasted tissues, purifes it of the i'm
pure humors which result from its stagnant,
unhealthy condition.
Nothing has ever equaled Paine's celery COM
pound for giving tone to the stomach and
a 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
strength, nervous debility, and a scofulous,
unhealthy condition of the skin at CHS sea-
son are sure signs of nervous weakness.
Paine,s celery compound will rob one of
the ''run down. feeling, the languor and des-
pondency that come from badly nourished
nerves, thin, pale blood, and underfed
organs of the body.
New life, a buoyant feeling. and the joy
business 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 compound
is doing for thousands of tired men and
women throughout the whole extent of the
country.
