Paine's Celery Compound

There is one true specific for diseases
arising from impure blood and debili-
tated nervous system, and that is Paine's
celery compound, so generally prescribed
be physicians. 1t is probably the most re-
markable remedy that the scientific re-
search OF this country has produced.
Prof. Edward E. Phelps, M. D. LII. d ,
of Dartmouth college, first prescribed
what is now known the world over as
Paine's Celery Compound, a positive cure
for dyspepsia, biliousness, liver complaint,
neuralgia, rheumatism, all nervous dis
eases and kidney troubles. For the lat
ter Paine's celery compound has succeeded
again and again where everything else has
failed.

The Way Hoyt Runs Plays.

The critics of Hoyt are continually
worrying themselves and the public by try
ing to find out the secret OF his success.
When theatrical business is bad all over
the country, Hoyt's shows one and all con-
tinue to roll up large profits; when other
managers are retrenching, Hoyt is enlarg-
ing; when other playwrights are waiting
for the royalties that never come, Hoyt is
counting enormous receipts from his ride
ulous skits with regularity that makes his
rivals green with envy. The solution Of
this problem is that Mr.. Hoyt is business
playwright. He constantly has his finger
upon the pulse of the American theatre
going public, and discovers what their
amusement appetites crave and Immediately
supplies that want. Again, Mr.. Hoyt
values the dollar of Bellows Falls just as
highly as the New York coin and gives the
same identical performance, the same
gorgeous scenery, the same competent cast
and stage accessories in Bellows Falls as
he does in New York. He keeps faith
with the provinces, as they are called, and
anything that is good for New York is
equally good for the smaller cities. When
he promulgates new piece it is easy tor
him to find ready market for his product
He has always made good every promise,
and he has the confidence of the amuse-
ment seeking people. 1t is not strange
then, that production Of a new piece by
this clever playwright is an event eagerly
looked forward to by theatre-goers. Hi.
latest work entitled GA Stranger in New
York" has been heralded as the brightes
and breeziest that has emanated from THU
prolific writer's brain; it will be given it
initial presentation in this city Wednesda!
evening, June 8, and that it will be giyer
a hearty welcome, goes without saying.
