MAKES THE WEAK STRONG I!
The Foremost Athletic Trainer in America Rec
ommen& PaineS Celery Compound.

Iohn Graham is the foremost man in
American athletics.
1t was he who managed the successful
team from this country that attracted
worldwide attention in the recent Olym-
pic games at Athens.
Formerly trainer for Columbia college,
then for Princeton and finally for Har-
ward university, Mr.. Graham had much
to do with raising the standard of collie
giate sports. A small army of gentlemen
have been guided by him since he left
Harvard and took his present position,
superintendent Of the famous gymnasium
of the Boston athletic association.
Three of his proteges White, Brewer
and Mccarthy, have just won the New
England championship at the mile quar-
ter-mie and hve-mile run. He has trained
Weeks of Brown university, one of the
best college sprinters in the country.
Many another student OF what makes
men and women strong has used and has
recommended Paine's celery compound
as the best known remedy for those who
are weak and dispirited, the overworked
and enfeebled persons who are most con-
cerned in the general awakening of inter-
est in outdoor exercise and indoor atten-
ton to the proper rules of health.
1t was the abest professor Of medicine
and surgery in any college, that giant
among men, Prof. Edward E. Phelps, Nj.
D., Ii. D., Of Dartmouth college, who
after years of patient investigation and
study, assisted by all that was best in
the progress OF medical science at home
and abroad, first discovered the wonder
full formula of Paines celery compound.
There was no doubt of the interest that
would be awakened at once by the an
nouncement of any discovery by Prof.
Phelps. The formula from the first was
furnished to the best physicians, and
forthwith this remarkable Paines celery
compound was personally used and pro.
iessionally prescribed by them. The re.
suit OF the closest investigation might
have been expected. 1t soon required a
considerable industry to produce the
remedy, and rapidly but steadily, with
out ceasing, the demand for Paine's cell
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1897-03-26

cry compound has increased, until today
there is no other remedy that in compar-
ison begins to hold halt the public atten.
ton that it holds.
In untold number Of cases where every
other remedy has been tried and failed.
Paines celery compound has attained
the wished-for results, making the weak
strong, purifying the blood, rebuilding
the worn-out nervous tissue, curing
chrome sickness, proving never-iailing
and permanent relief for rheumatism,
neuralgia, kidney diseases and disorders
OF the liver, all due to the impairment OF
the PERSONS nervous system, the conse-
quent impoverishment of the blood and
the breaking down in consequence OF
some particular organ.
When Mr. Graham, writing Jan. IS,
1897, said; II have used Paine's celery
compound to my benefit, and | have no
doubt that any person undergoing great
physical and mental strain would find it
of great service. For students especially
1T ought to be of great value. when so
prominent student of bodily health
who has no equal, unless, perhaps, one
mentions DR.. Sargent of Harvard, with
whose methods Mr.. Graham became wei
acquainted at Harvard-when Mr.. Ora.
ham says bluntly that after his expert
ence he believes Others would find Paine's
celery compound of great service, what
man or woman out of perfect health can
afford to neglect his well considered and
expert advice
There is no doubt that Paine's celery
compound cleans the blood of eczema
salt rheum and such humors, not only in
the spring, that is so favorable time
but at any time during the year, SO
thoroughly that nothing further is ever
heard OF them.
Paine's celery compound has been
tested, tried, scrutinized and heartily ap
proved by so many impartial physicians
and men and women whose word in any
matter would not be questioned for a
moment, that one must be stubborn
minded indeed who prefers to NOPE
around half sick instead of verifying these
positive, straightforward statements.

WASHINGTON, January 26.-In the
senate today, Mr.. Frye presented a
remonstrance from labor unions against
chant marine service. In the latter
connection Mr.. Frye stated that there
was no amendment pending in the SEN
ate or any bill that restored flogging in
the merchant marine. On the contrary
the amendment referred to lin the
mittee on commerce) gave greater Sc
curity than any existing law to the
sailor against the brutality of any
master or officer at sea.
The house amendments to the senate
bill for the examination and survey of
a water route from the mouth of the jet
ties at Galveston, Texas, to Houston,
Texas, were laid before the senate and
were concurred in.
Senator Turpie resumed his speech
begun yesterday, on the subject of the
recognition of Cuba. He said he would
a great deal rather depend upon the
credit of Cuban republic than upon
the resources of Spain, stripped as she
will be of one of her greatest resources
of revenue-the island of Cuba.
Mr.. Chandler moved to proceed tC
consider the bill to provide for the
representation of the United States by
commissioners at any internationaI
monetary conference hereafter to be
called. 1t went over without actor
and the Nicaraguan canal bill wa
taken up.

ALTOONA, Pa, January 26.-At 10
o'clock last night sleighing party Of
forty persons from Tyrone accidentally
drove into a quarry at Pemberton. The
sled, horses and pleasure seekers were
precipitated to the bottom of the preci-
pice where they lay in great mass. A
special train from Tyrone conveyed to
the scene of the catastrophe all the doc
tors in town. The party was mostly
made up of young people. Boys and
girls with their arms and legs broken
and with blood streaming from their
wounds lay in great drifts of snow slow
ly perishing from the intense cold.
The mercury was at ) degrees below
zero, adding to the horror of the catas-
trophe. The latest reports say none
are dead, though twenty are fearfully
injured. Among them are Alice Had
den, Jessie Stone, Eugene Champion
VIM. Jones and Howard Templeton.

spread with alarming rapidlty and soon
gutted the large stores of Hanscomb

on the building caught fire and fell and
the roof is now burning and the Market
street front of the store is deluged with
water. The fremen, however, have
the Wannamaker fire under control.
The weather was intensely cold, de-
terring the efforts of the firemen. The
Wannamaker establishment was at one
time in flames on the Market street
front, but the firemen soon checked the
fire there. The loss to Wannamaker,
however, is considerable. At II o'clock
the fire was under control. The loss
will aggregate over one million dollars.
The total loss may exceed two mil

worth half million. Thirty business

THE BILL WAS STRANGLED.
Anti-Sunday Base Ball Bill was Killed
in the House.

Special to the Herald.
AUSTIN, TEXAS, January 26.-The
anti-Sunday base ball bill was quietly
laid away to rest at this mornings ses-
sion of the house. Last week the bill
passed the house with the reconsider
ing string tied to it and when it was
sprung this morning it was electrocuu-
ed by being refused a third reading.
This was the only way some Of the
memberss had in opposing a bill that
they felt was obnoxios. They did not
care, to get on record asvoting against
it but could refuse to hear it read and in
that way lay it forever aside. The
representatives claimed that the law
would have been a dead letter in most
parts of the state il it had passed both
houses, and received the signature of
the governor.
Most of the work of the legislature
this week will be done in the commit
tee rooms. All of those measures
which are expected to arouse more
than usual interest are in formative
state.
There is such diversity of opinion
regarding what amendments should
be made to the assignment law that no
one seems to care to hazard guess as
to what the legislature will do on this
subject.
What kind of fee bill will be passed
no one knows, for the diversity of de-
sire on this matter is expressed in
dozens of measures of varying degrees
of reform. 1t is not believed, however,
that anything radical will prevail.
