Messrs. Wells, Richardson & Co.,
Gentlemen-Ifanybody in the whole
regiment of Rough Riders had a
chance to observe the general weak
ened condition of the men when they
started back to the United States, as
compared with their stalwart condition
when they sailed from a Antonio
on June 8, / think / had.
Oklahoma is generally regarded as
a healthy climate, and last May, when
1 left there, I hardly knew what sick
ness meant. Earlier in life, however,
l had lived in the easa, and after a
month in service, knew that what
needed, in my general rundown con-
ditlon, was a nerve tonic. l knew If my
nerves were fixed up there would be
no trouble about my general health al
soon as l got away from the army.
also knew the position that Paine'i
celery compound occupied, although
I had not-had occasion to use it muci
myself. T got a few bottles of it ant
began to take it and give it to a few
of my acquaintances.
1t actually seemed to build up m!
nervous. constitution almost as rap
idly as the southern climate had tori
it down. The same thing was true o
, the other men I gave it to.
Unless I had found this tonic to re
store my nerves I feel sure that
| would have gone to the hospital a
