Excepting it's handful of magnificent
statesmen and its military heroes,'' says
the most recent writer upon America,
"the people owe more to Dartmouth's
physician teacher than to any one man.
'In every walk of life. among the high
est officeholders at Washington, in the
homes of the best people in the large
Cities among the every day folks of the
country, families in comfortable circum-
stances, families that live from hand to
month and could not, II they wished,
afford the services of any but an ordin-
airy physician-every where I have met
people to whom Paines celery compound
has been a blessing"
The story OF the lifew work of this giant
among men has been often told AMI is
familiar to most readers. The likeness
above is probably the best portrait of him
yet printed.
1t was the world famed discovery Of
Prof. Phelps of an infallible cure for
those fearful ills that result from an i'm
paired nervous system and impure blood
which has endeared the great doctor to
the world, and made his life an era in the
practice of medicine.
Prof Phelps was born in Connecticut
and graduated in medicine at Yale.
The Roanoke times. (Roanoke, Va.) 1897-1977, 1897-04-10

His unusual talent soon brought him
reputation and prominence among his
professional brethren. First he was
elected to the professorship Of anatomy
and surgery in the Vermont University.
Next he was appointed lecturer on
materia medica and medical botany in
Dartmouth College. The next year he
was chosen professor of the chair thel
vacated by Prof. Robby, and occupied tn,
chair. the most important one in the
country, at the time when he first form
ulated his most remarkable prescription
In view of the overwhelming testimony
to the value of Paine's celery compound
that has recently appeared from men and
women of national reputation, the pic
ture Of Prof. Phelps is particularly inter
esting.
The fact is, Paine's celery compound is
not n patent medicine; it is not a
sarsaparilla; it is not II mere tonic; it is
not an ordinary nervine-t is far beyond
them all as the diamond is superior to
cheap glass.
1t makes people well. 1t is the one true
specific recognized and prescribed to day
by eminent practitioners for diseases
arising from deblitated nervous sys-

q positive cure for sleeplessness, wasting
strength, d, spepsia, biliousness, Liver
complaint, neuralgia, rheumatism, all
nervous diseases and kidney troubles.
For all such complaints Paine's celery
compound has succeeded again and again
where everything else has failed.
No remedy was ever so highly recon-
mended, because none ever accomplished
so much.
To- day Paine's celery compound stands
without competition for feeding ex-
hausted nerves and building up the
strength of the body. 1t cures radically
and permanently. The nervous prostra-
ton and general debility from which
thousands of women suffer so long that
it finally gets to be second nature with
them--all this suffering and dependency
can be very soon removed by properly
feeding the nerves and replacing the I'M
healthy blood by fresher, more highly
vitalized fluid. A healthy increase in
appetite and corresponding gain iu
weight and coed spirits follow the use of
Paine's celery compound.
Paine's celery compound is the most
remarkable medical achievement of this
last half of the nineteenth century. - z

INJURIOUS EFFECTS OF PUFFERY

Under Secretary Curzon, of the British
on Saturday, and opened with refer
ence to the arbitration treaty. He said
that the name OF Lord Salisbury "would
be perpethally linked in history" with
the spirit Of the instrument, and then de-
clared that the English people observed
the exclusive credit" attaching to the ne
gotiations. Then followed characteristic
fling at the United States Senate The
cable states that his remarks were re-
ceived with cheers.
Here We have an exhibition of the spirit
which, mere than any thing else, has, on
both sides of the water, initiated against
the true interests of the treaty. Arbitra-
ton is subordinated to the glorification
Of an official. Mr. Curzon is an aspiring
politician, and n protege of Lord Sails
bury So, he feeds his constituents on
praise of themselves, and shouts Justify
for his chief. He likewise bastes the
Americans. That may be pretty good pol
itics, but it sounds strange from pre-
tended apostle of sweetness and light 1t
will aid him in his parliamentary career,
but it cannot add to his usefulness as a
promoter Of arbitration between Great
Britain and the United States
On this side, the admirers of Mr.. Cleye-
land have been claiming everything for
him. He did it all. 1t was his policy
which prevailed. He was the discoverer
nf nd o;nlo
arbitration for war, and Lord Salisbury
came to the terms somewhat reluctantly.
Accordingly, the Cleveland people hold
that it is his name which evil be perpet-
ually linked liz history with the spirit
of the instrument, and that he observes
the exclusive credit of bringing about
the negotiations.
1t Is this sort of humbug perpetratcd on
both sides Of the water, which has
brought the arbitration treaty under
much of the fire to which, outside of the
Senate,it has.been subjected in this coun-
try Lord Salisbury does not stand in
the eyes of Americans rs conspicuously

Cecil, and the Cecils for ten generations
have been among the most aggressive and
capable of English statesmen. And as for
Mr.. Cleveland, to say that he is not built
on arbitration lines is not to question the
sincerity of his position in this particular
business. He never. arbtrated anything
ut home. 1t was always Cleveland first
and the rest nowhere with him.

involved. The principle of arbitration
was known and practiced before .either

ENGLAND AND EGYPT.

Lord Salisbury seems to be rather
a sly statesman. Recently he
agreed to release to France all
British rights to, or claims upon
Tunis. The British Press got
dreadfullv excited about it. Even
the Tory Press talked to him as If
he was lost to all sense of decency,
and had made the agreement with
France, after he had been to a luau,
and had come home late at night
full of ''hyenistic hilarity." But, it
now appears that Lord Salisbury
obtained from France or got the
promise, of release of any and all
claims by France upon Egypt, in
exchange for the release of Tunis.
If the statement is true, it means
the safety of the British highway
to India and the permanently wise
government of Egypt.
| The marked difference in the adj
ministration of foreign affairs, be-
America and Great Britain is,
that the British Cabinet can do
about as it pleases, when
it's party is in power. But
the American Cabinet is never

it is never sure of the loyalty of it's
own party. President Mckinley is
never sure that Speaker Reed will
follow instructions, and Senator
Perkins, loyal Republican, kicks
