Missouri Legislators Denounce His
Use of a Government Boat.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, March o.
Just before the adjournment of the
House tonight, Representative Mar
tin, of Barton, introduced the follow
ing resolutions:
"WHEREAs, The press dispatches
inform us that Grover Cleveland, a
private citizen of the United States, IL
now aboard a Government boat with
a party of friends, INDUCING his pas
sion for duck shooting at public ex-
pense; and,
"WHEREAs, The cost of running the
Government boat which said Grover
Cleveland appears to have coniscated
for his own use is heavy and the tax
payers are already staggering under
the burden of debt which Grover
Cleveland, when a public official,
greatly increased; therefore, be it
"Resolved, By the House of Repre-
sentatives of the Thirty Ninth GEN
eral Assembly of Missouri that the
President of the United States Is here
by respectfully memorialized to have
an inquiry made into the reported
co%nfiscation of a Government boat by
the said Grover Cleveland, and if the
inquiry develops that the report is
true, the President is respectfully ask
ed to take immediate steps to recover
the said Government boat and return
it to its proper station"
Mr.. Martin made a warm speech in
support of the resolution, and evoked
loud applause.
Clymer, of Crawford, offered a sub
stitute reciting the Inauguration of
Mckinley and asking that the House
express unlimited confidence in the
ability, honesty and patriotism of
the administration of William McKin-
ley.
The Speaker ruled the substitute
out of order. MAJOR Bittinger said
that, as a Republican, he rejoiced that
Cleveland had confiscated only one
Government boat.
The resolution was adopted with a
mighty chorus of cages"

Paine's celery compound effects
marvellous cures.
Where other remedies miserably
fail, and where doctors do not sue

found curing disease, making people
well and happy.
Here is the case of Mrs. Half, who
lives at 40 Summer Ave-, Newark,

here.
"My DOCTOR" she says, SCALED my
complaint liver disease, stomach
trouble, nervous dyspepsia, and al
most every other name you can think
Of. When 1 was in Portland, Ore,
I had enlargement of tho liver, and
the doctor thought all the troubles
came from that severe spell Of Illness.
That was - years ago, and I have
done nothing but doctor ever since.
1 have had the bost physicians ex-

anything for me. For months at a

misery, and with such sewers PAIN in
my back, and so weak that I could
hardly talk.
"After I had a bad night I would
send for the doctor, and he would
leave me a small box of powders and
one or two other medicines, and it
would cost me o. every time I had
one of these spells. I believe I have
taken more medicine than any other
woman.

in my life.' She is a woman OF As,
tAnd now she said, Il want to give
you a little advice. I have been al
most at deaths door with liver trou-
BILE. After the doctor had done all
that he could for me 1 told him not to
come again. 1 showed him a bottle
of Paine's celery compound and told
him I was going to give that a trial.
As a result I am strong and well.'
81 sent right over to the drug store
and got a bottle of a Paine's celery
compound, and when I had taken two
bottles the soreness had left my
stomach and my side felt much bet
ter. After 1 had taken four bottles
my side was much stronger, and I
was in better spirits and felt as though
I might live and not be in such
misery. Working people nowadays
work the vitality all out every week,
and all I ask is to be able to earn the
money I have to every week.
"Paine's celery compound has en-
abled me to do this, and has done me
more good than ali the doctors put
together.
"Why, my nervous system is 80 en-
tirely strengthened that I feel like a
new being, and what is more, I look
the good the medicine has done me
right in my face and eyes. Just tell
all poor women for me that for a
medicine to build one up, give Paine's
celery compound a fair trial, and if it
does not do 1t, then they might as
well die. I have recommended it to
several and it has helped in every
case. I have a great deal to worry
me, and a dose of the compound gives
me quiet sleep and then I can work.
If anyone wishes to write me they
can do So"
Why should a sick person do any
thing else but try q bottle of Paine's
celery compound?
