The great number of enthusiastic. I'M
studied testimonials from men and wom-
Ell living in widely separated states is
one of the best evidences of how Paipe's
celery compound is regarded all over the
country.
Woman's peculiar life brings languor
and listlessness that are best met by
Paines celery compound. The dispirit-
ed condition, the baGkaches, the neural
gic headaches, the sleepless and nervous
debility, that so frequently attack wom-
on when when their blood is robbed of
it's vitality is soon dispelled when Paine's
celery compound is used.
Mrs. Goldman, writing October 3Oth
from her home, 157 Scott street, Wilkes.
barre, Penn, says
"Fully approaching the benefits from
the use of Paine's celery compound
recommend it to others. Suffering from
sleeplessness and nervous debility, was
persuaded to use this truly greatest of
remedies. Although l can have every
medicine from my brothers, the drug
gists here, gave Palne's celery com
pound trial, and must confess only to
my benefit My only boy, four years
old, was also treated with it, and his
nervousness has disappeared. My father
Rev. G. Kuehn, with whom live, thinks
great deal of Paine's celery compound.
l shall always keep in the house."
There are untold numbers of women
who are working and worrying enough
to drive them into their graves if Paine's
celery compound were not always in
their homes to strengthen AID restore
their brains and nerves when there was
great need of it.

tuberculosis at Randolph.

A despatch from Randolph says that
in three herds of cattle of II, IS and %
heads respectively, which Victor L.
Spear, State cattle commissioner, and DR..
F. A. Rich of Burlington examined, 80
were condemned and killed. This is the
largest percentage of diseased animals
that has been tested under the present
law by these officers. 1t was nearly SO
per cent. of the number tested. 1t is
hard work to trace the disease in these
cases. In Messrs. Beedle's and Hatch's
herds the animals slaughtered were
nearly old stock, while in Mr.. Connolly's
the animals were all young. The ami
mails of the first two gentlemen were ap.
praised at $32, while those of the last
named were appraised at $50. This will
cost the State S472.

Bunco Men Proffer Advice.

The Boston Transcript OF September
9th contained the following with regard
to the confidence men who attempted to
defraud Mr.. Charter Durham of IS 500 not
long ago, and it would seem from the &C.
count that the sharpers, after their unfor-
tunate experience here, deemed 1t best to
prime their victims with plausible story
before sending them to the bank to bor-
row money:
"John f. Leighton, prosperous farmer
OF franklin, N. H., fell In with two APP
parently guileless innocents last week
who turned out to be clever bunco men,
They managed to relieve him Of $500
and in return gave him box containing
nothing more satisfactory than long
letter OF advice.
The letter read: Keep the AFFAIR to
yourself. II you tell any one, they will
laugh at you and say 1t served you right
for trying to take advantage OF Q man you
thought was greenhorn; and your
friends and neighbors, and also your ene-
mics, will say that you are not the honest
You know you told a lie to get the money
and no banker will ever let you have
money again; for he will think you
want to take it, gamble with 1t and lose it.
Your credit will be ruined; SO keep quiet,
pocket the loss and never gamble again.
As for my partner and me, we are going
to reform and you will never see us again.
You can not make any excuse to your
neighbors and acquaintance; for you
gambled at cards and lost, and no honest
man ever CANDLES
Mr.. Leighton did not follow the advice,
but at once notified the police, and the
Boston Bureau OF Criminal investigation,
acting With the New York department, has
already begun to trace the men from a
point between Nashua and Worcester,
where they mailed the letter to MIR. Leigh

4 TOUCH OF ROUGE.

A TOUCH OF ROUGE.
Softly now, with gentle fiutter,
Drop the ripened yellow leaves
And for all her fading beauty
Mournfully the sad Earth grieves.
Yet she proves her feminine nature
BY the deepness Of her guile,
As she strives to hide the ravage
BY truly feminine vile.
For she fings wealth Of color
Roundabout and far abroad
Gorgeous red and purple asters
And the flaming golden rod
To attract the eye and keep 1t
From observing that she's lost
Something OF the summers freshness
with the coming Of the frost.

Never Missed a Day.

The Nya Weldon, which at the time OF
the fire was the name of the Swedish
Tribune was issued under, did not miss
an issue, although the papers were got
out in Galesburg, instead Of at No. 3
North Clark street, where the office had
been.
The loss Of the organ Of the Swedes
was not by any means the total damage
sustained by residents of that nationality.
OF the $4,000 persons rendered homeless
by the conflagration fully one-third were
Swedes or of Swedish origin, because the
center Of the burnt district" was the
Swedish quarter. Their loss is estimated
at $2,000,000.
1t was during the memorable Sundays
work of devastation by the fire that An
drew CHASER, owner of the Nya Werlden,
with his associate editor, the Swedish
poet, c. E. Peterson, attempted to save
something from destruction in his office.
His editorial wisdom impelled him to Sc
lect the mailinglist galleys. They bun
died the galleys in their arms and started
for some place of refuge, satisfied that
all would not be destroyed. Half the
galleys were pied ait the foot of the stairs,
Peterson splitting his armful on the floor.

Q LATIN
Why That Language Is Employed Tor
Druggists Prescriptions


Druggists Prescript ions.
81 dom see, said the man who was
leaning against the drug store counter,
..why doctor can't write his prescrip-
lions in English instead Of Latin. :
The druggist smiled and said: you've
got the same idea most people have. You
think, / suppose, that the doctor writes
his prescription in Latin SO it cant be
read so easily-so the laymen can tssteal
his trade and learn what he is giving
him. But that's all wrong. In the first
place, Latin is more exact and concise
language than English, and being dead
language, does not change, as all Lying
Languages do.
."Then, again, since very large part Of
all the drugs in use are botanical, they
have in the pharmacopoeit the same
names that they have in botany--the sci
entific names Two-thirds of such drugs
haven't any English names and so
couldn't be written in English.
t'But suppose doctor did write pre-
scription in English for an uneducated
patient. The patient reads it, thinks he
remembers it and SO tries to get 1t filled
from memory the second time. Suppose,
for instance, it called for iodide of potas-
SUM and he got it confused with cya-
hide of potassium. He could safely take
ten grains of the first, but one grain Of
the second would kill him as dead as a
mackerel That's an exaggerated case,
but it will serve for an illustration. Don't
you see how the Latin is a protection and
safeguard to the patient? Prescrip-
lions in Latin he can't read, and conse-
quently does not try to remember.
CHOW for final reason. Latin is a
language that is used by scientific men
the world over, and no other language Is.
You can get Latin prescription filled in
any country on the face of the earth
where there is drug store. We had
prescription come in here the other day
which we had put up originally and
which had since been stamped by drug
gists in London, Paris, Berlin, Ccnstanti-
nople, Cairo and Calcutta. What good
would an English prescription be in St.
Petersburg?" M..
