Among all the structures that make up
the human body, the nerves have been,
until recently, the least understood.
The role of the nerves, in the digestion
and assimilation of food, is highly i'm
portant one. The question whether the
food shall nourish or become a mere load
upon the system is a question of nerve force.
Neglect to satisfy the demands made by
the nervous system carries heavy penalties.
When this nervous force is exhausted
the digestive processes are INSTRUCTED, the
body is weakened, and pains of neuralgia,
indigestion, rheumatism, invade all parts.
During repose the mel yes and great nerve
centers feed upon the nutritive material
that is stored in the blood and tissues 1t is
when this supply Of nourishment is prompt
and abundant that the nervous system is
able to recuperate, but when the system
has become too tired to appropriate suffi-
Gent nourishment and tbs nerves too shaky
to get the rest they need, that best of all
blood purifiers, nerve foods and nerve regu-
lators, Paines celery compound, should be
given at once.

GUS weakness TO thousands of tired women,

CONFLICTING reports regarding an Indian
uprising at Jackson's Hole, Idaho have
been in circulation during the past week,
and particulars of a terrible massacre of
whites have been sent out, only to be con-
tradcted the next day. United States
troops have been hurried to the scene, and
the latest report is that none of the settlers
have as yet been molested, although the
Indians are hostile, and are encamped in an
impregnable position about forty miles from
the canon in which Jackson's Hole is

Hon. B. P. CHENEY, president of the
American Express Company, died last
week of intermittent fever, at his home In
Wellesley, Mass, aged eighty years. He
was born in Hillsboro N. H, and had held
many prominent positions in the financial
world. He was the largest owner in the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe road, and
was chairman of the committee on finance
in the Northern Pacific and in express COM
panies east and west. He had for the past
two years been gradually turning over the
active management of his business to his
eldest son, Benjamin P. Cheney, Jr., who
is now in Los Angeles, Cal
SILVER CITY, New Mexico, was visited
last week by the most destructive washout
in its history. The loss is estimated at
$4,000. The town is located on the side of
hill and in gulch. A cloud burst above
it, and, almost without warning, a tremen-
dous avalanche of water swept over the
town from several points. Probably half the
business part was washed away, and in the
main street the sand and debris were piled
up to the windows of the houses. The post.
Office building was destroyed, and the Ire
mont, Thinner and Broadway Hotels were
wrecked. In fact, houses tumbled down all
over town. Gillette & Son lost $4,000
worth of stock. Bridges were washed away,
and five miles of Santa Fe track was torn up.

sleep, nervous prostration, lasstude and
dependency are sure to follow.
Paine's celery compound guards against
all this by promptly feeding the exhausted
nerves and making the blood pure, abun-
dant and nourishing. 1t cures neuralgia,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, all forms of nerv-
GUS weakness, dependency, skin diseases,
and affections of the heart, liver and kid

every organ, and thus makes people we'll.
Paine's celery compound has found its way
originally through prescriptions by physi-

A Few Samples Of the Result Of Our Treatment
TO DEATH

Given Up by the Leading Physicians of
New England-Cured by DR.. Sproule.
If DR.. Sproule had done nothing else in
this state but cure me he has done wonder
full thing. In December, 1892, was taken
sick. l treated with one of the best doctors
here, but all the time kept getting worse,
and at last he said nothing could be done
for me. 1 then had the leading doctor of
the Burlington hospital to see me in Groton,

two weeks. My food hurt me so 1 could not
eat anything, and l was slowly starving to
DEATH l went to the hospital in Boston,
city, but they could do nothing for me- In
February of 1895 L was taken with the grip,
which made my other troubles worse than
before, and everybody thought would die
soon. Hearing of DR.. Sproule. the Cele-
brated Specialist, l was taken to consult
him on the 18th of April. He told me my
case was very serious one and the chances
OF recovery worse than ever but thought he
could help me. At that time l could eat
but little of anything, and what did eat
hurt me very much; but my liver had been
cold and felt like dead for two years ard
three months. | had palptation of the
heart and terrible headaches, and was re-
duced from 16S pounds, my usual weight, to
40 pounds. l had been in bed nearly all
the last two years. Once under DR..

enough in favor of DR.. Sproule, and would
