General HOFFMAN
The annual muster roll of the Fourteenth Reg
imcnt in Brooklyn has been returned from the
State headquarters at Albany, and attached to
it is a report by Inspeotor-Gencral Edward NJ.
Hoffman. Gen. Hoffman says:
1.-THE field and staff and non-commissioned
staff were correctly uniformed, but the gilt
trimmings on swords OF non-commissioned staff
were very dirty.
"The Medical Department is not in satisfac-
tory condition; uniforms and accoutremcnts of
the hospital corps were dirty. No medical OFF,
Ger was present with the corps Mt inspection.
THE general condition OF this regiment Is
very unsatisfactory. owing to the fact that the
commanding officer gives little or no attention
to the administration Of it's affairs, and while
many OF the officers have worked faithfully to
improve the companies and batthlions, their
efforts have been almost totally nulli1ed by the
neglect OF the rcgimental commander. The
QuartcrmRster's department was in a very bad
condition, and state property had been inuch
neglected and damaged. There seemed TO be no
system In the department.
THE rifles were not in good seryiceable con:
dition. The inspection OF the armory showed
that 1t was not rs clean ms IL should be. There
was no officer present TO receive tho comments
OF The inspecting officer upon Its condition. The

Close. careful observation of great numbers
OF cases like the above led Professor Edward Z.
Phelps. NJ. d.. LII. D.. OF the Dartmouth Medi-
cal School to tho formulation of Paine's celery
compound.
The success OF this universally well-known
remedy in quickly driving out disense from the
blood and system need not be retold to newss
paper readers.
Paine's celery compound restores to n healthy
state n weakened and diseased nervous system.
One of the first evidences of it's building.up vir-
tue is the gain in flesh noticeable about tho face.
Night sweats and nervous twitchings are things
OF the past; there Is "a great Improvement in
looks, a better appetite, sounder sleep. q clearer
skin and more regular functions. These arc q
few OF the outward improvements. More inn
portant is the thorough and radical purifying OF
tho blood and tho regulating and huilding-uD
OF the deep-lying nerves all over the body.
There Is nothing half way or partial in the
effect of Paine's celery compound. 1t cures
