ON EVERY HAND PEOPLE ARE
GETTING WELL.
The Great Spring Remedy Makes
One Strong.
Now Ordered by Physicians Every
where i'm March.

Ahl what avail the largest gifts of Heaven
When dropping health and spirits go amiss2
How tasteless, then, whatever can be given;
Health is the vital principle of bliss
Weak, tired-out men and women with
nerves "unstrung" and badly nourished
need Paine's celery compound. They are
especially urged TO take it during these
early spring days OF March and April,
when the body is most susceptible to its
strength hening influence.
OF the thousands of men and women
with brains and hands all day actively
engaged, but whose physical powers are
little used, who imagine themselves more
dangerously sick than they are, the vast
majority are merly reduced in strength
and spirits, and need nothing but vig-
orous tonic in the spring to recuperste
their tired nerves. They need nothing so
much as Paine's celery compound. 1t ex-
actly fills their need
The infrmities peculiar to the aged
come from stagnating blood and the
tardy, scanty production of nerve force.
They should take Paine's celery COM
pound-there is no time SO favorable as
March.
The rheumatism, neuralgia sleeplessness
compound so rapidly dispels are thus
found to be mere temporary conditions to
which their time OF life is liable, and the
cause of needless anxiety.
Needless II they fully perceive the mean
ing OF these infirmities and take paines at
once to correct the beginnings OF weak
ness and debility, as it is SO easy 10 do
now in the spring.
Paine's celery compound Is the great
spring medicine. 1t is prescribed by
countless physicians In cases OF rheuma-
tism, neuralgia, sleeplessness, and the
many other results of starved nerves and
depleted blood. In every drug store
in the country Paine's celery compound
is always to be obtained.
1t is the worlds great remedy for weak
ness. Its use year by year Through 80
large part of the civilized world tells
something of the good it must be accom-
plishing. III men ana women who
feel the effects Of too close application to
work would use Paine's celery compound,
there would be less insomnia, less pain In
the back OF the neck, fewer days OF utter
physical exhaustion and incapacity tor
anything but suffering. Its extensive use
today is the cause of a vast alienation OF
human misery and despair. Its presence in
the world is blessing. 1t has kept the
family circle whole in thousands OF
homes that are happy and grateful today.
Try it.

THE FIRST POSTAGE STAMP.


Hoyoke Trauscri
Some days ago there appeared an article
in the Springfield Union crediting for
mer postmaster in Brattleboro, VT, with
having been the originator of the first post
age stamps. Tue date claimed was 1876
The article came to the notice of Henry S.
Parsons of the Falls. Mr. Parsons knew
that was not correct. The first postage
stamp was not designed by a Braitleboro
man, but by Augustus +. Lines of New
Haven, Conn, an old friends of Mr.. Par
sons. The latter enclosed the clipping ia
note to Mr. Lines. BY return mail came
this interesting letter, which is worth
quoting:
