Disastrous Fire at Warren.

Warren was visited by disastrous
fire last week Tuesday evening, by
which about $4,000 worth of proper
ty was destroyed. The fire broke out
among some shavings on the ground
floor of Parker & Slayton's clapboard
mill and spread rapidly through the
building, which was soon a mass OF
flames. In spite of the efforts of the
large number of people present the
flames spread to Parker & Slayton's
warehouse, thence to "a. w. Lyford's
butter tub factory, both of which, to-
gether with their contents. were
burned. Mr.. Lyford had $500 but
ter tubs ready for market and these,
together with quantity of timber,
were destroyed. Parker & Slayton's
warehouse contained large quantity
of clapboards ready for market.
1t is thought a portion of the ma
chinery in Lyford's mill can be saved,
though in more or less damaged
condition.
Neither firm carried any insurance.
Lyford's loss is placed at between
8, 900 and $1,000. Parker & Stay
toms loss will probably be not far
from IS. 900.

Every person who has ever taken
Paine's celery compound has observed
how soon il regulates the bowels and
clears the whites of the eyes of that
yellow janndiced look. Another wit
ness OF its invigorating capacity that
may escape the notice OF persons not
accustomed 10 ordinarily employing
this test is ITS effect on the pulse. OBJ
serve the firm, regular, full pulse that
was before uncertain, fluttering, and
feeble.
The great susceptibility of woman
to worry is heightened by the fact
that she leads more confined, mo-
notonous life, narrowed down to four
walls Of home the greater part of the
day. Paine's celery compound is just
what such nervous, depressed persons
need to restore their nerves to energy
and TO lift them out of their consti-
pated, dyspeptic habit of today.
Paine's celery compound counter
acts the exhaustiDg strain of work by
its strong inducement 10 the delicate
tissues 10 take more food. 1t plainly
induces the nerves and brain to feed
themselves more literally, and has
thus saved countless men and women
from chronic neuralgia, rheumatism,
sleeplessness and failing mental power.
No remedy has been discovered so
rich in flesh-forming and energy-pro-
ducing constituents as Paine's celery
command.
