Many persons out of health have found
an excuse IN hot weather for doing moth
ing toward getting we'll
II will wait until fall" they have prom
ised themselves.
1t 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 we'll.
The natural, unchecked course of dis
ease is from bad to worse as the fall and
winter wear on.
1t is not that rheuma tism, NEURALGIA,
insomnia and kidney troubles are hard
to cure-Paines celery compound has
made host of sufferers well-but people
make themselves chronic invalids by
neglecting the first symptoms of disease
Thousands of lives that are now fast
wearing out would be prolonged IL
Paine's celery compound were in each in
stance used to stop those ominous pains
over the kidneys, to build up the run
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,

strength in Pafne's 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 testimonial recently
received from the wife of United States
Senator E. +. Warren of Wyoming,
whose distinguished services for the
country's best farming interests are SO
well known:
81 was persuaded to try your Paine's
celery compound in the early spring
when in a very rundown condition. The
duties involving upon the wife of an Of
fetal in public life are naturally very eX-
hausting and l was tired out and ner-
yous when l commenced using the rem
edy. 1 take pleasure in testifying to the
great benefit [ received from it's use, and
can truthfully say that I am In almost
perfect health again. If 1 ever find my
self running down again l shall certainly
give it another trial and will in the
meantime recommend it to every one
needing it."
1t is a fact verified by the practice of
the best physicians, aud by thousands
of personal testimonials, that Paina's
celery compound makes new, pure blood,
builds up the nervous system, and cures
disease where all other remedies have
failed
It's absolute rella bility is shown by it's
steady employment by trained physicians
and in homes made happy by it's un-
questioned power of making people we'll
