The essential difference between Paine
celery compound and the bewildering num-
ber of sarsaparillaS and nervines that its
success has brought into existence is that
Paine's celery compound furnishes just the
appropriate nutriment to the exhausted
nerves, and securely builds up the system
against disease, while the unscientific rem
edies confuse and add TO the arrangement
of the organs.
Pains's celery compound not only re-
lieves, but effectively and permanently
cures.
The most permanent and direct cure for
debility, nervous weakness, languor, and a
run down" condition, is the strong. relia-
BILE Paine's celery compound. The rasping,
irritating effect of badly Hourished nerv-
Gus system upon all the organs of the
body ceases when this medicine is used.
Paine's celery compound is the most ad-
vanced nerve and brain strengthener and
restorer known to medical science.
The tired, worn out sufferer who is not
advancing towards health is falling back
There is no standstill in bad health. One
can endure a headache or 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 pos
tive cure of these unhealthy states of the
body, evinced' by repeated attacks OF
rheumatism, neuralgia, sleeplessness OF

they would go the full twenty rounds with

ed Game.

In the bowling tournament last night the
competing teams were the Electrics ana
the Bellevues, and the former won after
one of the most interesting games OF the
season. Two of the Electrics' bowlers
failed to show up. and they were forced to
put in two substitutes, who, however fur-
nished an agreeable surprise by bowling as
strong. or a stronger game than the resu-
lar men might have done. Harrigan and
TarbIe both bowIed strongly and steadily
from start to finish. and did much TO aid
the Electrics in winning the game.
Treiber of the Electrics, was the hlgh
man of the game bowling in good form,
and putting up the good total OF 5l9. None
of the Bellevues succeeded in reaching the
800 mark, though Laidlaw and Porteous
were very close to it with 494 and 49, Da-

Paine's celery compound.
If you are out of health or respondent be-
cause of repeated trials of other remedies,
take a fresh start. The bracing weather
is in your favor.
Here is the experience-like that of hun
dreds of others-of Mrs. Lydia NJ. Hayden,
of Marion, Ind:
Before commencing the use of Paine's
celery compound l was treated by many
doctors and tried many remedies, but did
not get any better. l seemed to be all
broken down. 1 was tired all the time, and
my constitution seemed to be giving out
1 weighed only 115 pounds last fall when
commenced using Paine's celery compound.
In less than two months 1 weighed 124
pounds. an unusual weight for me. 1 have
had better health ever since, and have felt
better this summer than have for years.
My little daughter was away from home
on a visit, and came home looking as if she
had had a hard sickness. l went right
away and got her bottle of Paine's eel
cry compound, and she has had better
health since than she ever had in her life,
eats hearty, and is growing fast"
There is no woman. who, in justice to
herself, can fail to take Paine's celery
compound under similar circumstances.

HE SLEPT IN PEACE.
No One Dared Disturb the SIumber of
Colonel Temple Houston in
"a Local Hotel.

Colonel Temple Houston, of Oklahoma
and Texas fame is on hand in full view of
the public. Despite the fact he has
number of "notches" on his gun, he is not
afraid to appear in public. 1t has been
reported that Colonel Houston would not
stand with his back exposed to lead and
always faced brutal man. But he proved
the faIsity of the report yesterday by Sleep
ing for long time in the lobby of a Kan
sas City hotel, exposing his system to his
enemies But he continued to sleep and
neither hand was on his gun. In fact, his
hands were distributed carelessly around
the chair and the Immediate neighborhood,
and as he sat there sleeping no one could
detect anything really bad about him.
There was a disposition on the part of
the hoorwalker at first to oUst the man
who vas so careless as to distribute him
self in the lobby in that fashion, but be
fore he tackled the job some one was kind
enough to put him next to the PROPOSE
ton. When the astonished man gained
control of his thinking apparatus he con-
cluded not TO interfere with the sleeper.
1t was very plain that Colonel Houston.
who, as is always recalled, is a son of
Sam Houston, has the freedom of the city.
OF course there Will be the usual number
OF stories about gentlemen being compelled
to dance FOR the amusement of Colonel
Houston and he may clip few boot heels
before he leaves town and again he may
conclude 10 add another scalp to his belt,
but no matter what he does, it will doubt
less be all right, for no one can recall when
he did a wrong thing or ever failed to do
the right thing.
Colonel Houston. by reason of his vote
for Bryan at the Chicago convention. eX-
poets confidently TO be appointed United
States attorney Of oklahoma by President
Bryan. His main object in visiting the city
| is to arrange for taking hold Of his Of
| ficial duties and secure machinery for Il

Woodward. Some time next month Colonel
| Houston may explain to the court why it

The outlook for American tin plates is

and manufacturers, with scarcely any ex-

regards the possibility of a higher tin plate
tariff, the reports are at a wide variance.
Some firms are not looking for a. change;
others expect q change just as soon as Nc
Kinley can get the next congress together.
Every manufacturer is firm in the opinion
that the Welsh tin plate manufacturers
