Many persons out of health have found an excuse in hot weather for doing noth- ing toward getting we'll.
 T will wait until fall," they have prom ised themselves.
 It is now time, if ever, in thousands of cases, to keep that promise.
 Nothing should now interfere with building up the weakened nerves.
 Now is the time of year when rheuma- tism and neuralgia must be cured, when debility and nervousness must be checked when bad health must be mended-if one hopes to get well.
 The natural, unchecked course of dis ease is from bad to worse as the fall and winter wear on.
 It is not that rheumatism, neuralgia, insomnia and kidney troubles are hard to cure-Paine's celery compound has made a host of sufferers well-but peo- pie make themselves chronic invalids by neglecting the first symptoms of disease.
 Thousands of lives that are now fast wearing out would be prolonged if Paine's celery compound were in each in- stance used to stop those ominous pains over the kidneys, to build up the rum down nervous strength and cure perma- nently those more and more frequently recurring attacks of headache and indi- gestion.
 There is absolute relief from nervous prostration, sleeplessness, poor appetite,

growing thinness and loss of vigor and strength in Paines celery compound.
 This most remarkable of all known remedies has won the sincere approval of the most progressive part of the com munity. Here is a testimonial recently received from the wife of United States Senator B. r. Warren of Wyoming, whose distinguished services for the country's best farming interests are so we'll known:
 'I was persuaded to try your Paine's celery compound in the early spring, when in a very rundown condition. The duties devolving upon the wife of an official in public life are naturally very exhausting and was tired out and nerv- sous when I commenced using the rem iedy. I take pleasure in testifying to the great benefit I received from its use, and can truthSully say that am in almost perfect health again. If I ever find my self running down again shall certainly give it another trial, and will in the meantime recommend it to every one needing it.''
 | It is fact verified by the practice of the best physicians, and by thousands of personal testimonials, that Paine's celery compound makes new, pure blood, builds up the nervous system, and cures disease where all other remedies have failed. l It's absolute reliability is shown by its steady employment by trained physi- clans and in homes made happy by its unquestioned power of making people E well.

 Mr. Cobb Nichols, formerly boarding officer in the customs service, has been discharged from the service, owing to the inefficiency of the customs appropriation.
 Henry Rock, a mulatto, who enjoyed the entire confidence of MT. Ignace Car rouche, a dealer in oils and essence on Chartres street, near Bienvllle, for the past fifteen years, has been dismissed from his employment for having sys- tematieally robbed the man who implicit ly trusted him. Rock is an embezZler to a very large extent. While the exact amount is not yet known it Is believed that a further examination of the books will show that he stole nearly $20O0 This amount does not. include other moneys which he appropriated to his own use, which cannot be traced. It is believed that Rock lost the money at the gaming table. Although he confessed his guilt to MT. Carrouche he would not say how he squandered the stolen money. MT. Carrouche will not prosecute Rock, as IL will do no good he says.

This was the first cargo of sugar ever carried m turret deck steamship as well as the largest cargo of sugar ever delivered III Roston. if not the largest ever delivered in the United States.
