remedies-Peine's celery compound,
But az the great majority of lives are Or
dered-with too much work, too much
anxiety, too little sleep-by the time winter
is over the drain on the nervous energy has
become excessive, the nerves are in sad
ne of being strengthened, and the blood
Of being purified.
Paine's celery compound absolutely meets
this great modern necessity.
Pane's celery compound will bring back
nerve strength and replace poor, thin, pale
blood with a ruddy, matchmaking stream.
1t is the one great practical remedy adj
vocated by all physicians.
1t drives away that feeling of utter ex-
haustion that is so common in the spring.
but no less dangerously significant because
it is SO common. 1t makes people well 1t
is a thousand times superior to all the or

ever made.
Paine's celery compound is the one real
spring remedy known to-day that never

Gentlenelt--I take much pleasure in being
able to add my mite TO the great mass of
testimony in praise of Paine's celery Jm-
pound.
"In November last found myself much
run down by overwork. For several weeks
l had been obliged work eighteen hours
daily out of the tweuty -four, and was in
consequence in a state OF physical and ner-
vous exhaustion. AT the suggestion of a
friend | commenced the use of Paine's
celery compound, with the result that my
strength has steadily improved, and find
myself in far better health than L have
known for years.
81 believe also that it has enabled me to
escape my periodical attack Of rheumatism,
as every season since that time, with the
advent Of the cold, damp weather, have
suffered severely from that disease in a
chronic form, So far this winter / have es
capped without single twinge of my old
enemy. 1 very cheerfully recommend it to
any one in similar need, in the full belief
that it will be helpful in every case. Very
sincerely yours, A. A. BENNETT"
