Paine's celery compound is the one as

Both these old-time, obstinate diseases

scription.
Neuralgia and rheuma tsm are merely
names for certain reduced state u the
nervous tissues. AS far as causes go.
they do not much differ from nervous de-
bility. headaches, dyspepsia and sleep
lessnesS.
The mischief is the same in every case,
a nervous system robbed OF life and SUBJ
stance by over-exertion and scanty nut
triton. The cure for all these is like
wise in the same direction. Strengthen
and restore the nerves to their normal
condition with Paines celery compound.
1t is the advice of the ablest physicians
everywhere.
AS soon as all the countless nerve CEN
ters and hbers have been made sound
and strong, not only rheumatism End nett
ralgia, but low spirits. kidney trouble.

vanish without trace to remind one that
their presence was not all fearful

Low spirits lose their power when the

Paines celery compound. The rapid gain
in weight that follows its use is a rea-
sonable indication of the strengthening
processes that are going on among the
