The essential difference between
Paine's celery compound and the be-
wildering number of sarsaparillas and
nervines that its success has brought
into existence is that Paines celery
compound furnishes just the appro-
pirate nutriment to the exhausted
nerves. and securely builds up the sys-
tenn against disease, while the un-
scientific remedies confuse and add tc
the arrangement of the organs.
Paine's celery compound not only re-
lievcs. but effectively and permanently
cures.
The most permanent and direct cure
for debility. nervous weakness. languor,
and a rundown" condition, is the
strong. reliable Paine's celery COM
pound. The rasrng. irritating effect
OF a badly nourished nervous system
upon all the organs OF the body ceases
when this medicine is used.
Paine's celery compound is the most
advanced nerve and brain strengthened
and restorer known to medical science.
The tired, Worn-out sufferer who is
not advancing towards health. is fall
ing back. There is no standstill in bad
health. One can endure n headache or
a backache once: one can endure it
twice. but the repeated sick headache
and the constant pain in the back and
in the region of the heart must be got
rid of. For the permanent and positive
cure of these unhealthy states of the

Is Her Coming Recognition
by the United States.
Mckinley Said to Be Heartily in
Favor Of That Step.
Thousands Of Americans Ready Then 10 Fiqht
Under Cuba's Flag.

Chicago, Nov. 27-A paper here pub-
fishes in an interview which purports
to come from the local agent of the Gu
ban League OF the United States Of
America, which has been received in
New York. The agent states:
AS soon as the Cubans claim to in
dependence Is recognized. 20, 900 fight
ing men will go from this country to
aid them. There are plenty of Ameri~
cans who will enlist. No otners are
wanted. If any Americans are caught
by the Spaniards after recognition by
the United States, they will have to ac-
cord them the privileges Of prisoners
of war. which Americans cannot get
now. Within three months at the long
est after the United States takes such
action. Cuba will be free. No attempt
viii be made to reach President Cieye-
land. Major Mckinley is pledged to
our cause and the government will be
influenced to take the necessary steps !"
The Cuban agent here is said to be
directing changes which will be made
in the mechanism of a new rapid fire
gun of extra penetratiVe powers. and
negotiations are pending for Cuba to

The best thing that can happen for

country.
One sign of hope is Mckinley's posi-
tion. AS he is pledged to recognize the

The last two trips of the Origon in

rolled 30 degrees, have shown the navy

complain Of hard times. But then,
if we had bushels of it, what would we
do with it1 We could neither eat it

we might hoard it, or oppress the
needy with robbery by usury and un-
lawful interest, and become curse of
greed to the community instead of a

The gavel which Chairman Harrity
used in opening the National Demo
cratic Convention has history, says
the Boston Post, which dates back to
the time of the Pharoahs. The head
of the gavel is carved from piece of
oak which formed part of old Fort
Dearborn. The handle is also Of oak,
but rom tree which was growing on
the present site of Chicago 1000 years
ago. This tree was one of primeval
forest, covered by the debris of cen
turies and hidden until few months
ago, when excavations at Sheffield
avenue brought the great trunk to
light. Thus the oaks of two periods
centuries apart have been levied upon
for the gavel. Professor Upham, of
the Minnesota Historical Society,
vouches for the age of the tree from
which the handle was made.
