Countless homes in every city in
America have been saved from the
sad loss of some desparing member
by Pains celery compound.

discoverer of this world-famed rem

likeness of Dartmouth's greatest
professor, Prof. Edward E. Phelps,
M. D., LII. D., given above, is the
best portrait of him yet printed.
Excepting it's handful Of mag
nificent statesmen and its military
heroes says the most recent writer
upon and critic of America, ''the peo-
pie owe more to Dartmouth's phys1
clan teacher than to any other one
man.
"In every walk of life among the
highest oMce-holders at the nationa.
capital, in the homes of the best PEG

everyday folks of the country, thai

not, if they wished, afford the service
of one ordinary physician-every
where I have met people to whom
Paine's celery compound has been

by Prof. Phelps of an infallible cur,
for those fearful ills that result from
an impaired nervous system and i'm

Present Disgracaful Condition of
our local State government.
The time was, thirty years
ago, at the end of the Civil War,
when such things had to be
tolerated. but no true hearted
Southern man, who lived through
the Reconstruction period, can
wish to see a repetition of those
dark and stormy days, when civil
law was dominated by military
strength to uphold partisan local
government.
It is high time now for all true
North Carolinians to arouse
themselves from their lethargy
and come together as n man
with one mind, determined tina
our Anglo>Saxon civilization
shall be preserved.
The true white men of NORTH

ton that the present condition o

among his professional brethren.
First he was elected to the profess
orship of anatomy and surgery in
the Vermont University. Next he
was appointed lecturer on materia
medica and medical botany in Dart
mouth College. The next year he
was chosen professor of the chair
then vacated by Prof. Robby, and
occupied the chair, the most impor-
tant one of the country, at the time
when he first formulated his must
remarkable prescription.
Prof. Phelps has given to his
professioninPaine' celery compound
a positive cure for sleeplessness,
wasting strength, dyspepsia, bilious
ness, liver complaint, neuralgia,
rheumatism, all nervous diseases and
kidney troubles. It is the only
specific recognized and prescribed
today by the best physicians for
diseases arising from a debilitated
nervous system. For such com
plants Paine's celery compound sue
ceeds again and again where every
thing else fails.
No remedy was even SO highly re-
commended, because none ever ac-
complished so much.
Paine's celery compound stands
without competition for feeding ex-
hausted nerves and building up the
strength of the body. It cures radi-
cally and permanently. A healthy
appetite and a corresponding gain
in weight and good spirits follow
the S Of Paine's celery compound.
It is the most remarkable medical
achievement of this late half of the
t nineteenth century.

Scrofula is a disease as old as an
tiquity. It has been handed down
from generations and is the same to-
day as in early times. It is emphatl-
cally a disease of the blood, and the
only way to cure it is by purifying
the blood. That is lust what Hoods
Sarsaparilla does in every case where
it is given a faithful trial. It eradi-
Gates all impurities from the blood,
and cures the sores, boils pimples
