Judge William Henry Dewitt is one of the most prominent lawyers and judges in East Tennessee. He is a leading member of the Southern Meth odist church in Chattanooga. In legal business and social circles he stands high; his statements, says the Chatta- nooga Press, are regarded of special weight because of his venerable charac- ter, he being now 67 years old.
 He has held several prominent posi- tions in a legislative and judicial capac- ity, having served as a member of the Southern Congress at Richmond during the war, and since that time as Judge of the Chancerye Court, one of the high est offices in judicial practice next to the Supreme Court.
 He was admitted to the bar in 1850. In 1855 he was elected to the State Leg islature, but declined a reelection.
 After his removal to East Tennessee he was appointed special chancellor by Gov. Taylor, and filled the office for two years. He has successfully practiced before the Supreme Court of the United States for yearsJ
 In recent years, owing to the heavy work he has performed, he has been subject to nervousness, and his atten- tion has been called at various times, both by friends and physicians to the need of fortifying himself against phys ical collapse. His attention was called

to Paine's celery compound as a vital i2ing force, He sought and obtained this valuable aid, and to his friends he recommended the use of the remedy for shattered nerves.
 Overhearing his conversation, a friend asked him to write down his experience for the use of others so afflicted. In re- sponse he wrote as follows:
 Dear Sir-In obedience to your re- quest, state some of my personal knowledge os the value of Paine's cell cry compound as a medical remedy for certain afflictions and diseases, as fol- lows, namely:
 Judging from my own experience, it is first-class remedy to restore the ner- vous system when broken down or iIn- paired from over-work of mind or body, revivifying the energies. It strength eris the digestive powers and cures costiveness; truly it Is a great nerve tonic, a good alterative. a splendid di- uretic. It Is good for the kidneys and the blood, renews vitality and restores strength. It surpasses anything have used as health renewer,a strength giv- er,and system regulator. It quiets weak nerves, gives better rest, increases both appetite and digestion, and brings back lost power of balny sleep, natures sweet restorer. Yours truly.
