Neuralgia, rheumatism,
Can Now be Cured.
Old Time Obstinate Diseases
are Easily Durable.
Paine's Celery Compound
is the Great Specific.
1T RESTORES THE NEGLECTED,
FAMIsHED NERVE PARTS.
1t Replaces Worn-Out Tissues with
New, Vigorous Ones.
1T RESTORES THE NEGLECTED,
FAMISHED NERVE PARTS.
It Replaces Worn-Out Tissues with
New, Vigorous Ones.

Paine's celery compound is the one
assured remedy for rheumatism and
neuralgia that is every day accom-
plishing all that physicians claim for
it!
Both these old-time, obstinate dis
eases are to-day speedily and perma-
nently cured by Prof. Edward E.
Phelps great prescription.
Neuralgia and rheumatism are mere
~ names for a certain reduced state
of the nervous tissues. AS far as
causes go, they do not much differ
from nervous debility, headaches,
dyspepsia and sleeplessness.
The mischief is the same in every
case, a nervous system robbed of life
and substance by over-exertion and
scanty nutrition. The cure for all
these is likewise in the same direction.
Strengthen and restore the nerves to
their normal condition with Paine's
celery compound.
1t is the advice of the ablest physi-
clans everywhere.
As soon as all the countless nerve
centers and ibers have been made
sound and strong, not only urhema-
tism and neuralgia, but low spirits,
kidney trouble, disordered liver and
heart palpitation, vanish without a
trace to remind one that their pres
ence was not all a fearful dream.
Paine's celery compound does its
curative work in a simple, straight
forward way. 1t wastes little time on
the minute and puzzling classification
of diseases, but lends all its energies
at once to feeding the worm out, shat
tered nervous track, filling the ar
teries with rich, new blood, and build |
ing up the body for it's fight against
disease.
Low spirits lose their power when
system feels the bouyancy of re-
turning health, such as comes from
taking Paine's celery compound. The
rapid gain in weight that follows it's
use is a reasonable indication of the
strengthening processes that are 60
ing on among the vital organs.
Many men and women who recon-
mend Paine's celery compound do so
in what, to others, may sometimes
seem extravagant words. But Paine's
celery compound has made them well! |
The Farmers Boys School. |
From Colman's Rural World.
The school that the farmer should
send his boys to, if he desires them to
inherit his acres and keep his homs-
stead, is where his boy can be taught
agriculture pure and unde filed in all
its branches, and the school that gives
employment to the teachers thathave
good, practical agricultural sense, in
stead of theoretical agricultural nom
sense. The great trouble in many
schools where agricultural science is
is that the teachers are not
practical men. Too many of them if
given a hundred acres of the best land
the state, fully equipped with live
stock and farming utensils, could not
'un the business five years without
putting a mortgage on the farm.
Therein is where much of the trouble
les at the present day in the educa-
ion of the farmer boy. Too much of
{ is OF the kind that educates him off !
ne farm instead of preparing him for
lis work.

CIV. Clark's Corn.

~ HFE5H III DCIttIuJf-
1t is said that Hon. Cyrus F. Clark,
OF Mexico, will raise a double crop of
corn this year on the same piece of
ground. He planted some corn early
last spring and it stayed in the ground
SO long he thought it wasn't going to
come up, SO he planted it over again,
doubling the rows. 1t all came up
and he has a double piece of as fine
corn as there is in the county. OF
course, this would not do in every
