Paine's celery compound builds up
the run down" health in a sure, unin-
terrupted, steadfast fashion from
which there can be no relapse. 1t
wipes out unhealthy humors from the
blood, opens up the skin and makes
it do its full share in purifying the
blood. This cleansing the blood
through and through is one of the un-
failing accomplishments of Paine's
celery compound.
From a lifelong contact with the
many ofrms OF nervous debility and
impure blood, Prof. Edward +. Phelps,
D., LII. D., of the Dartmouth medi-
cal school, was led to the discovery of
Paine's celery compound as the crown
ing achievement of an extraordinary
active and successful professional life.
No acceptable substitute for Paine's
celery compound exists. Each year
further aCcumulates evidence of the
unequaled capacity Of this greatest of
all known remedis for restoring health
and vgor.
Now that spring has come, nerves,
/ blood and vital organs cannot remain
clOgged by poisonous hUmors nor
starved by Overwork and lack of sleep
without great risk. Paine's celery
compound is the most intelligent, wis
est means anyone can employ for driv-
| ing out disease and restoring a healthy
| tone to the entire system.

CHARACTER OF WASHINGTON.
An Eloquent Tribute Once Paid TO
Him by Wendell Phillips.

No matter what may be the birth
place of such a man as Washington, no
climate can claim, no country can APP
propriate him; the boon of Providence
to the human race; his fame is etern-
ity; his residence creation. Though it
was the defeat of our arms, and the
disgrace of our policy, l almost bless
the COnVulsiOn in which he had his
origin; If the heavens thundered and
the earth rocked, yet, when the storm
passed, how pure was the climate that
it cleared; how bright in the brow of
the ornament was the planet 1t re-
vealed 20 us! In the production of
Washington it does really appear as
if nature was endeavoring to improve
on herself, and that all the virtues of
the ancient world were but so many
studies preparatory to the patriot Of
the new.
Individual instances. no doubt, there
were; splendid eXemplifcations of some
single qualification: Caesar was merci-
full, Scipio was content. Hannibal was
patient; but it was reserved for WASH
ington to blend them all in one, and,
like lovely masterpiece of the Grecian
artist, to exhibit in one glow of assoc
Ciated beauty the pride of every model
and the perfection of every master.
AS a general, he marshalled the peas
ant into a veteran and supplied by dis
cipline the absence of experience. AS
a statesman, he enlarged the policy
Of the cabinet into the most cOmpre-
hensive system of general advantage;
| and such was the wisdom of his Views
and the philosophy of his counsels that
| to the old soldier and the statesman
! he almost added the character of the
| Sage.
| AS a conQueror, he was untainted
with the crime of blood revolutions
| list, he was free from any stain of trea-
| son; for aggression commenced the
| contest and a country called to the COM
| mand: liberty unsheathed his sword;
| necessity stained, victory returned it..
| If he had paused here history might
! doubt what station to assign him;
whether at the head of her citizens or
| her soldiers, her heroes or her pa
triots But the last glorious act
! crowned his career and banishes hesi-
! tation. Who, like Washington, after
having freed a country, resigned her
crown and retired to a cottage Father
than reign in a capital.
Immortal man! He took from the bat
! tie it's crime. and from the conquest
! its chains; he left the victorious the
glory of his self-denial and turned
upon the vanquished only the retribu-
ton of his mercy Happy, proud Am-
erica! The lightnings of heaven yield
ed to your philosophy! The tempta-
| tiOns of earth could not seduce your
patriotism!

Washington, May H.-In all the de-
partmcnts at Washington Paine's eel
cry compound has become the office
expression for an ideal invigorator
when one is run down" by overwork,
confining duties, or any of the many
causes that result in i'll health.
Here is what a prominent official in
the Department of the Interior says
of Paine's celery compound:
Departmet f the Interior,
General Land Office.
It affords me much pleasure to state
that Paine's celery compound has been
to me an excellent spring remedy, and
particularly beneficial to the nervous
system and digestive organs. L cor
daily commend its use.
NJ. +. DONOGHUE,
Chief of Contest Division.
Among the thousands of voluntary
letters Of acknowledgement for benefit
derived from Paine's celery compound,
there have already been published in
the Washington papers testimonials
from men representing every depart
ment of the national government
not only from many of the best known

Paine's celery compound are:
Congressman Powers of Vermont.
