nurse from the Francis Willard National
Temperance Hospital at Chicago, says:
In my experience as trained nurse, have
often observed that where patient has been
very weak, Paine's celery compound has
quickly returned him to his wonted vigor,
whenever the physician has prescribed it."
Paine's celery compound is now the only
spring remedy demanded by thoughtful men
and women. 1t has pushed aside the count

Every woman is said to make good nurse
The opportunity to try is certainly forced
on every woman at some time in her life, and
when the time comes and sickness enters her
home, she should know exactly what to do.
She can follow no better advice than the ex-
pert counsel of physicians and trained nurses
who every day see before their eyes the Won
derful results of Paine's celery compound
among their sick, debilitated, and nervously
exhausted patients.
Paine's celery compound is the only spring
medicine that has the confidence of, and is
used and prescribed by nurses and physicians.
For years they have seen patients under
their care rapidly recover health and vigor
from the use of this wonderful restorative
Miss Cora Smith, whose portrait is given
here, tells of her experience with this great
spring remedy. Miss Smith is graduate OF
the Northwestern Hospital School for Nurses
at Minneapolis. She writes:

ingly curing those diseases that result from
deranged nerves and impure blood. 1t has
displaced all other spring remedies, in the
opinions of the best class of druggists and
physicians and the great mass of intelligent
people who judge of remedy by its results
more than by what it claims for itself
Thousands of letters have been received by
the proprietOrs of Paine's celery compound
and by newspapers and medical journals
from men and women in every walk of life,
I all telling one experience-the immediate re-
lief and perfect cure effected by Paine's
celery compound.
The best physicians openly endorse it, use
it, recommend it and authorize the public
use of their statements that Paine's celery
compound in case after case, cures rheuma-
tism and kindred diseases, purifes the blood,
regulates the stomach, liver, bowels and kid
neys, and rejuvenates the fagged-out or dis
eased nervous system

Pittsburg, April 8.-The Dispatch
says From a source the reliability of
which cannot be questioned it was
ascertained yesterday that Philip d.
Armour, the Chicago beef king, is
making strenuous efforts to absorb the
glue business of the entire country.
Pittsburg dealers in that sticky article
are viewing Mr.. Armour's attempt to
get a monopoly of it's sale and manu-
facture with apprehension. 1t will
take about $20,000,000 to buy all the
glue factories in the country.

Higgins at Guantanamo.

George Higgins, who is a member of the
crew of the gunboat Machias, has written a
letter to his relatives in Tamaqua. His ship
was stationed at Guantanamo, Cuba, and
tells of heavy sea that was encountered on
the journey there, when he was life watch,
The bow of the ship would dip so low that
water would run clear over the ship, and
there wasn't a man aboard who was not sea-
sick. Admiral SIMPSONS flagship New
York is in the harbor. He says "Guan-
tanamo is the hottest place l have ever
visited. 1t is almost under the Equator, and
its air is as scorching as that in some of the
old-fashioned outdoor bake ovens that
have seen in dear old Tamaqua."

IDENTIFIED BY PICTURE
Two Girls Insist that Corbett is the
Man Who Robbed Mickey
Residence.

GAINESVILLE, Wis, Dec. 16.-[Special. J.
Henry Corbett of Milwaukee, the man
now under arrest at Racine on the charge
of shooting Rev. and Mrs. Cheney, may
be the same man who entered the Park
place home of Ex-Ald. George M. Nc
Key last month and. at the point of a
revolver, robbed the house and threaten
ing to shoot Mrs. Mickey and two serv-
ant girls if they did not obey him.
The police of Racine have secured an
excellent photograph of Corbett.
Today the photograph was taken to the
Mickey home and shown to Miss Lib
Trinworth, domestic employed there :.
the time of the hold-up. She said, or
being shown the picture, 81 am positive
that that is the same man who
entered this house. He was here
the day before and for fully
five minutes | talked with him at the
front door, SO you see [ got good look
at his features. / would have known
who he was if you had not informed me.
The expression about his eyes as well as
the feature of his entire face look natur-
al: L would say that he was the man
who was here"
Rose Mcconnell, the other girl at the
Mickey home at the time of the hold-up,
said, on being shown the picture: cat a
quick glance | would say that the man
was the same one who confronted me
with a revolver. But to make sure of it,
[ would rather see him with his hat on
and his coat collar turned up about his
neck
In case Corbett is held at Racine an
effort will be made to have those who
saw the alleged Corbett here go to Ra-
cine and identify the man now under ar
rest there.
