Miss Lucy II Hitchcock lecturer, depart.
ment of physical culture, Womans Christian
Temperance Union, Vermont, wrote on May
16, last:
ut affords me pleasure to add my test
mony with others regarding the healing effects
of Paines celery compound upon an exhausted
nervous system"
August ~ 1897 she wrote: " AS rule | do
not endorse medicines, but / believe Paine's
celery compound to be of different order
from the ordinary medicines. Facts cannot be
disputed | have derived so much benefit
from the compound that / am glad to heartily
recommend it, hoping others similarly afflicted
may be relieved Any medicine that will re-
lieve suffering humanity is a blessing to the
world"
A blessing to the world
Paine's celery compound has been proven to
be the one great remedy that really makes peo-
pie well This estimable woman, whose Chris
tan work is earnestly directed toward the bet
terment of others, and whose eminence in the
w. c. T. U makes her advice of great value,
plainly endorses Paine's celery compound.
The amount of poor health on every hand is
something shocking to every one who stops to
think. Hundreds of men and women in every
neighborhood are to day carrying about with
them a needless load of ailments that
thorough refreshing of their nerves, a purify
ing of their blood, more sleep and more regu-
larity in the bodily functions would completely
do away with Paines celery compound will
do all this for sick and ailing men and women.

A hear say " reputation may do for other
remedies Paine's celery compound is best
known from the mouths of men and women
whomit has made well-they are in every city,
town and village in the country.
No one can pass the newspaper bulletins
without being reminded by how slight thread
the best of men hold on to life. The slight
ups and downs in health from which people
recover make them forget that there is limit
to the body's elasticity and endurance. The
habitually exhausted nervous system at last
loses its power of recovery, and offers re-
sistance to disease.
Prevent disease" is the watchword of the
best medical thought of to-day. Careful men
aud women do not wait until they are fiat on
their backs, people once did. The more
intelligent part of every community has found
out the inestimable benefit to be derived from
Paine's celery compound, when one is worm
out, nerve-tired and out of Sorts
The little ills. the beginning of neuralgia
and rheumatism, the all-gone" and tired
feelings show the immediate need of purifying
the blood and refreshing the nerves. The di-
rect and energetic way Paine's celery COM
pound overcomes sick and nervous headaches,
dyspepsia and heart troubles, it does all
other nervous disorders, has compelled the adj
miration of the medical world from the start.
Headaches, rheumatism, neuralgia, lifeless
feelings and debility cannot persist when in
telligently met and corrected by this greatest
of nerve and brain strengtheners. No remedy
ever kept the confidence of so large a body of
inquiring men and women. Try it.
