careful people of purifying the blood and
toning up the nerves in the spring has
tempted scores of incompetent persons,
schemers and clerks, with only dangerous
smattering of medical knowledge, to
venture to concoct so-called spring rene
dies.
In sharp contrast to these risky prepar-
ations is the one valuable spring remedy
worthy the name in the estimation of
competent persons and medical authori-
ties, Paine's celery compound.
This widely praised and widely priced
remedy really does make people well. 1t
is as far removed, in the minds of judi
cious men and women, from all other
remedies purporting to accomplish equal
results, as the north is from the south.
Clear-headed professional men, business
men. and the great body of hard working
brain workers all over the country be-
lieve heartily and with good reason, in
Paine's celery compound.
PGine's celery compound gets its
staunchest endorsement from physicians
and scientific men who were led to verify
its claims because Of its dscoverer, the
distinguished Dartmouth college profess
or, Edward r. Phelps, NJ. D., LII. d.
Nothing will pull tired-out, nervous,
rundown man or woman out of the
quagmire of sinking health so promptly
and firmly as Paine's celery compound.

Brunswick, Ca. May A.-There have
been lively times in Brunswick to-day
over The supreme courts decision sustain
ing Judge A. J. Crovatts allegation that
e. H. Mason was not entitled to the Office
of mayor. which he has been holding
since last January. This leaves Bruins
wick without mayor until successor
is elected. In the meantime Chairman
of Council Albert Fendig will be the exc
cutive head of the city.
The question Of MasOns successor is the
absorbing one with the politicians and pub
lie generally. Two names are heard in
this connection, State Senator II. F.
Dunwody and Edwin Brobston. senator
Dunwody says he is not a candidate. Mr..
Brobston will not express himself.
A new phase Of the mayoralty situation
developed late tonight IN creditable re-
ports that council would tender the honor
to Jacob l.. Beach In an interview al
1890 he disclaimed knowledge Of such an
Intention and expressed himself in favor
Of council re-electing f. II. Mason should
the decision handed down permit. The
full decision has been wired for and eau
Gus Of politicians will be held tomorrow.

BRUNSWICK WITHOUT A MAYOR.
The Supreme Court Holds That There
Was No Election in December.


Atlanta Ga, May 21.-The supreme
court rendered a decision to-day which
leaves the city of Brunswick without a
mayor.
On the first Saturday of last December
a municipal election was held there and
the vote for mayor was 44O for E. II.
Mason and 123 for Judge A. ]. Crovatt.
The ballots were counted, Mason was de-
clared mayor and he assumed the func-
tions OF the Office.
Since then Judge Crovatt brought an
action to Gust MIR. Mason, on the ground
that he was an alderman at the time of
the election, and was, therefore, ineligible
for mayor. Judge Sweat declared the
election valid, but this judgment is re-
versed by the supreme court, which takes
the position that Mason was ineligible,
and as Crovatt received a minority of the
votes cast. there was no election. new
election will, therefore. be held.
There has been much feeling over the
case, and IL figured as side issue in the
Sweat Investigation, in which Mr.. Crovatt
appeared as a witness against Judge
Sweat. The point was made that his feel
ings against Judge Sweat arose out of
the mayoralty case.
