room for doubt is left to the most stubborn
minded person. This joyous transforma-
ion from sickness to health is going on in
thous nds of homes across the wide extent
of this country.
The reputation of Paine's celery COM
pound has grown, by word of mouth, from
persons made well to others who needed
its healing, strengthening power. The
agreement of opinions among the best in
Tor ned and most obseTvant class of people,
in the wel-to-do homes of our largest cities,
az well as in the more frugal town com
munities, places Paine's celery compound
far in advance of any remedy.
This great reiLedy is not an ordinary
sarsaparilla, bitters, tonic, or nervine.
Paine's celery compound is as far apart
from any of these guess-work remedies as
black Is from white in the eyes of physicians
who regularly prescribe it, use it themselves
and carry it home to their own families.
Paine's celery compound is the famous
formula Of that thoughtful and studious
physician, Prof. Edward e. Phelps, M D.,
LII D., of the Dartmouth Medical School.
1t is the duty Of every man or woman
who has been benefited By Paine's celery
compound to impress on friends and neigh
bors It's wonderful efficacy as blood and
nerve remedy that is III every way worthy
Of the name.
The past Of Paine's celery compound, as
every one who keeps informed of current
events is well aware, is a remarkable story
of sick people made well, and Of many per-
sons, who had given up health as wholly
lost, made strong as ever they were in their
lives Paine's celery compound is the
spring remedy par excellence. No in
vlgorator has been 80 much praised, dis
cussed, recommended and used by physi-
clans, and discerning, conservative men
and women in every walk of life.
The st ry of Paine's celery compound, in
nutshell, is that it makes people well.

A Few Facts About RubbGrS.

DIR. WENDELL c. PHILLIPS, a cele-
brated New York doctor, was giving
his health lecture to a New York audi
ence. The night was cold aud rainy,
and the doctor began:
How many persons here wore rub
bers tonight? Hands upl Not half
of you. Now, that is what l thought.
Every one of you should have rubbers
on night ike tits. To go without
them is t. invite colds, bronchial
troubles, catarrh and pneumonia"
1t is astonishing how many people
neglect their feet. The feet are the
most abused part of the whole anatomy.
Ruobers are only 80 cents pair.
You save money on the investment;
perhaps ten.days' DOCTORS bi |. You
say rubbers are poor, worthless things.
Some makes are, but the "White Brand"
line, that are sold only by the b. M.
Shepard Company, are sure 10 give
better service than auy other make.
Every one knows the Rubber Boots
are cheaper at $3.50 than other makes
at 50 rs We have new this year a
lumberman's White B and, crack proof =,
warranted. Try a pair this year and
we will guarantee them to outwear the
cheaper grades.

Paine's celery compound by my eighty

In every part of this country women
are utilizing these blessed au umn DAYS by

The Missing Hot Springs Banker Owed
the Larger Amount.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, May d.-Something OF a
sensation has been developed at Hot Springs.
in connection with tho failure Of the City
Savings Bank and the Eastman drug store.
which closed their doors last Saturday. At
first 1t was thought that the liabilities OF
both concerns would not exceed $4,000 and
that the assets would nearly equal this
amount. President Hogaboom WAS said to be
in the East nee otiaiing funds with which to
tide over his difficulties when the crash came.
1T has since developed that the liabilities of
the two concerns will aggregate nearly eco,
coo. while the assets are very small Mr..
Hogaboom has not returned to Hot Springs.
and his present whereabouts is a mystery. SO
Gar az kpowD, but one letter has been re-
ceived from him since the failure. "a
TEis letter IVES dated st. Louis and sd.
dressed to bis wife. Ii said: "The worst has
come. You have sl5 in the house with which
10 buy bread for yourself aud the childre Z.
Goodbye"
Attachments continue to come in from oil
parts Of the country. and IL seems that Mr..
Hogaboom had borrowed large amount Of
money. He was considered une of the
wealihiest men in the state. and il is not
known how he lost his fortune. HIS friends
believe that he lost large sums In grain specu'
lation on the Chicago Board of Trade.

THREE RUM LICENSES.
Likely to Be the Limit Granted TO Wash
ingtOn Street Saloons.

The question OF granting licenses for
liquor saloons on Washington street,
which has been agitating the public mind
for quite long time, in fact, ever since
the street was widened, was expected to
license commissioners agreeing to grant
three licenses at least. 1t seems, however,
that the absence OF Commiss ioner Paine,
who was out OF town, put a stop to pro-
ceedings, II being understood that his
vote was necessary to carry the day in the
favor of the three. The favored Ones IL
Is understood, are the Hotel Perrin, John
CoeD, Jr., and Edward O'Malley. Each
of these three places are said TO have
been run on business principles, without
the interference or Intervention OF the
"bonded Wholesalers" who were sup
posed TO be "putting up" for the untor-
tunates.
AS it is understood, the intention OF
the remonstrants to granting any licenses
on the street named Is to keep undetiled
what will be the slmost beautiful avenue
in the heart of the retail portion of the
city, and street which must be recog-
nized as the main avenue of approach to
the new State House, State Normal School
and Union depot. There has been consd-
erable said about the saloon Keepers who
have been doing business on washington
street all along being put TO extra ex-
pense in fitting up, and also about their
getting locations elsewhe more or less
OF which talk is characterized by the
proprietors themselves a. ridiculous and
uncalied for. One OF those most inter
ested said Yesterday that IL really made
no difference SO far as he Is concerned,
whether he gets a license or not he is
simply holding out for the principle of
the thing or, in other words, for spite.
1t is stated that in connection with the
plan TO purify Washington street 1t is in
tended to purge the whole of the central
district. In this regard II was also re-
ported that some OF the hotels on adjacent
streets would not be licensed again TO sell
liquor Ii seems, however, that the Arl-
ipgton Hotel was the iirst TO get licen Sc
aud others quickly followed.
Several cases are noted where saloon
keepers have failed to come to time with
their license money, and their saloons are
closed; but 1t is openly stated that as
soon as they or their sponsors ''apte up'
they may again open their doors for busi-
ness.
The retail rum business is said to be
very dull and is not expected to.pick up
until after the presidential election. IL is
furthermore stated that soIe old-timers,
who have not paid up, are allowed TO do
business just the same.
