GIddness Comes

IGIith a better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
zeal ills which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant Efforts
rightly directed There is comfort In
the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it Is the only
remedy with millions of families. and Is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact. that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts tits therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system Is regular, then laxa-
Gves or other remedies are not needed
IF afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skiilful
physicians, but If in need of laxative.
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

HERBERT's REPORT.
Secretary Says All Statements Are Con-
jectural and Based On Former Re-
: ports. 1t Will Appear Dec. 4.

Washington, Nov. 27.-The following
official statement was given out by the
navy department today:
Secretary Herberts attention being
called to published reports purporting to
give the features of his forthcoming re-
port said that all reports of this char
acter were purely conjectural. They are
based in part on his former reports and
on the fact that the secretary has re-
ceived data on various subjects from
naval bureau chiefs. What features OF
this data will be embodied in the report
is still an open question. The report IT
self is not yet advanced in its original
written form to completion and has not
been put in print, SO that reports of its
contents are premature and misleading.
A mistake in one of these reports which
has been shown the secretary, although
it is in positive terms, shows that the
writer has no information whatever on
which to base his guesses.
The secretary's annual report will be
published in the morning newspapers OF

and my constitution seemed to be giving

since and have felt better this summer

my little daughter was away from

Paine's celery compound, and she has

There is no woman, who, in Justice to
herself. can fail to take Paine's celery
compound under similar circumstances.
Birmingham state herald. (Birmingham, Ala.) 1895-1897, 1896-11-28

The essential difference between
Paine's celery compound and the be-
Widering number 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 remedies confuse
and add to the arrangement of the or
gans. "a
Paine'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 rundown" condition, is the strong,
reliable Paine's celery compound. The
rasping, irritating effect of badly
nourished nervous system upon all the
organs of the body ceases when this
medicine is used
Paines celery compound is the most
advanced nerve and brain streng thener
and restorer known to medical science.
The tired, WORKOUT sufferer who is not
advancing towards health, is falling
back. There is no standstill in bad
health. One can endure headache or a
backaehe 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 body, as
