He is regular attendant at the Met
ropolitan Methodist church in Wash

d. D., is the pastor.
DIR. Johnston is but one of many able
clergymen who have publicly advised
the use of Paine's celery compound,
basing their recommendations on the
benefit they themselves have derived
from it's use.
Not only among clergymen, lawyers
and physicians, but among all classes
of thoughtful, intelligent people
Paine's celery compound is the one re-
liable remedy for building up the sys-
tenn when it is run down. 1t is the
greatest nerve and brain invigorator
the world has ever known.
Dr. Johnson says of this great REM
edy:
Wells, Richardson & Co.,
Gentlemen:-Having used your
Paine's celery compound as tonic,
can cheerfully bear testimony to it's
value in restoring wasted energy and
inducing sleep when one is resting and
fatigued.

Robinson took offence It what he
called the betrayal OF his secret b,
members OF the company, and
sought every opportunity TO plead
lack of faith and forfeiture of CON.
tract on the part o., paid up mem
bers OF his company. Aside from
the plea of justification for the aban-

sickness and discontinued his lead

and Others maps of the route
travelled and the pretended loca-
ton OF the mine. The Journey
was undertaken without Robinson
but it was finally abandoned with,
out results. News of the great
discovery spread wide and all army
OF men was abroad all that fall
Every independent party proiessed
some secret Clew to the exact To-
cation of Robinson's ledge, which
IN tact never existed. The parties
who grub staked' Robinson on
the occasion of his protessed dis

claim their rights. They went
with evidence of partnership and
with big navy sevolvers to enforce
their rights made miners laws
and customs by force of arms,
Lewiston merchants and profess

He repeated his success and
doubled his fortune there.
In the sweet springtime he en-

Quoting company to the lost
mines of the Bitter Roots. Again
he was followed and watched.
Even the victims Of the previous
year were eager to follow their de-
ceiver to second disappointment.
Again Robinson grew morose and
threatening over the obi Objectionable
camp followers. His eastern pa
irons were more easily controlled
than the California company.
