Paine's celery compound is not a patent
medicine.
No class of professional men are more
conservative more careful in giving adj
vice, or more painstaking in finding out
the real facts of a case than physicians
Their recommendation in matters with
which they are conversant is trustworthy.
When physicians of known repute not
only prescribe and use, but also bring
home Paine's celery compound for their
own families. there can be no doubt of Its
high standing in the eyes OF medical
men in general. This is what busy, sue
cessful practitioners are doing these
spring days all over the country. Paine )
celery compound is prepared, as they all
well know. from the formula OF the fore
most physician of this century, Prof.
Edward Il. Phelps. M. d., LII. D.. OF Dart
mouth medical school. Among medical
men there is an absolute certainty as to
Just what Paine's celery compound is
capable of doing. The careful record of
the vast number of cases where it has
made people well has been published in
the medical journals of the country.
Paine's celery compound stands today
as the one thoroughly authenticated rem
edy for weakness and debility due to NAL
nutrition of the nervous system and i'm
pure blood.
This hard working, earnest class of pro-
fessional men have never been slow in
accepting Paine's celery compound.
Thev declare that it gives the tired body
every possible chance TO get back to u
healthy condition. 1t cures nervous
weakness, heart palpitatlon, general lack
of strength, and all forms of weakness;
rests and restores the jaded, fatigued
brain and nerves, because it provides for
the abnormal waste of these parts by an
unusually prompt supply of appropriate
nerve food. 1t puriiics the blood as moth

A THRIFTY CALIFORNIA MAN
He Secures Letters From the State
Department
Secretary Horton Calls w E. Johannsen Down
in Short Order and Cancels His
Credentials

WASHINGTON, April 5.-Secretarv
Morton has cancelled the honorary com.
mission issued to w. f. Johanusen of
in connection with the proposed expedi-
ton for the display of California products
in that port. The facts in connection
with the appointment and its revocation
are substantially as follows:
Mr.. Johannsens request for any assist
ance that might be given him bore the
endorsement of Governor Markham and
Representative Mcguire of California and
appended thereto was a list of probably
twenty or thirty business houses in San
Francisco that would participate in the
exposition, and included in which was
that of the firm of Goodall. Perkins 4
Company, of which Senator Perkins is a
mem Der.
Subsequently. it seems, Won Johannsen
went to New York city and opened an
office from which he issued circulars Of
character to solicit the cooperation of
others in his business, signing his name
not only as in charge of the exposition,
but as a commissioner of the department
of agriculture.
The secretary says that Johannsen had
no right to call himself a representative
of the United States Agricultural De-
partment, and as the letter given
to him was purely to facilitate
his business abroad he (Morton) }
indicated by the circular as entirely un-
warranted and for that reason his COM
mission as honorary member was revoked,
and he was requested to return it together
with the general letter of introduction ac-
companying it.
