At last the stockholders' committee,

Mr.. Gillian knows what severe work
means.
The nervous strain OF his responsible
position has al times brought him near to
prostration and the giving up of his
work. He says in letter dated New
York, Nov. 13, 1894:
"No tonic that | have taken has done me
so much good as Paine's celery compound.
When i am run down or exhausted after
particularly exacting work on cartoons
and in other artistic occupations, j have
found a dose of the compound exceeding
ly beneficial as restorative for the
nerves."
The racing speed of the marvellous new
processes for swiftly carrying out mems
ideas IS taxing to their utmost the nerv-
Gus systems of countless men and women.
A cry of protest is going up all over the
country from medical men against the
suicidal waste of nerve force.
Preachers, editors, lawyers, even
doctors themselves, from their
daily round of hard, anxious work-every
brain worker, in fact, who labors draws
heavily upon his nervous vitality, must
take alarm at the first sign of brain tire,
pressure, fulness or tension in the head,
or nervous fatigue.
In every city la the United States ply
siciars every day are not only pre-
scribing, but themselves using,

and nervous debility, for curing the

attracted the attention of the officers, as
il was found curled up in an old mat and
suffering from a cold. 1t was nothing but
skin and bones aud the bones nearly pro-
truded through the flesh. When taken
by the society it weighed but 41s pounds.
Anne d., aged six, and Edward, aged
two, were found in what might be called
q bed, but their little teeth were chatter
ing from the cold. There was no fire nor
a morsel CT anything to eat in the house,
but number of liquor TASKS were found,
some OF which were filled with the
vilest sort OF whiskey. The house had
been for some time the resort of the low
est OF characters in that vicinity. The case
was taken before the probate court of
Lincoln, Feb. 27, and the children were
turned over TO the society where they Will
remain until they become of age.
When the agent visited the house the
mother was away on spree and the
father was serving a sentence of one year
at the State Farm for drunkenness. Tho
mother was arrested on similar charge
and was sent TO the State Farm for term
Of six months.
The little one, and in fact all of the
children are doing nicely and are said to
be particularly bright and smart children.
They will be educated by the society.

A Burglar Entered Or. Capron's
House Last Night.
The Watch Dog Failed to Arouse the
Family.

The residence OF DIR. Franklin p. Capron'
PAL Washington street, corner OF Greene
street, was entered by burglar last
night.
An entrance was effected by forcing
open a window on the Greene street side
OF the building, and the thief
made his way to the dining-room,
where he helped himself TO about
500 worth OF silverware. The fellow was
we'll posted, for he only took the best. A
portion of a candle, used by the thief, was
found on table in the dining room, and
the heavy curtains of the room were
drawn. The family did not know
OF the affair until this
morning, when the servant girl found the
rear door partially opened. She saw the
footprints OF man in the snow and at
once notified DIR. Capron. just how the
man made his way out of the rear door

The Buffalo News, in a recent article,
remarks upon the fact that Bernard "
Gillian, the cartoonist OF Judge, is one Of
the few living men whose cartoons have
ever changed vote in the United States
Senate"
Bernard Gillian is young man, but 30.
He received his art education in England.
He is today the foremost cartoonist of
America.
IN 1880 he came to Harper's Weekly as
the colleague of the immortal Mast.
His work afterward for Frank
Leslie's and Puck well fitted
him for bringing Judge to its present
success. In 1886 Mr.. Gillian went into
partnership with w. j. Arkell, and bought
Judge. The full page colored cartoons,
Mr. Gillam's special province on Judge,
equal the remarkable efforts OF tko great
Koppler, ia Judges older rival.
There is probably no form oi brain
work thar is so exhausting, SO exacting e
and SO intense as the work of the great
artist on the large comic papers.
To turn out brilliant ideas with tho
regularity of machinery and yet keep
their work mp TO the high standard set by
their splendid reputation, makes fearful
demands upon their nervous vitality.

An effective remedy must first enter the
blood TO cure rheumatism. Local treat
ment for O constitutional disorder will do
no good. Rheumatism, gout, blood

Just why Paine's celery compound
cures, while other remedies fail, is be-
cause all its ingredients effectually aid the
system to rid itself OF any poisonous
humors in the blood.
