hausted and took TO his bed with an
attack of the grip. After awhile the
disease not having left him he was ad-
vlsed to try Paine's celery compound.
He was soon back at his Office in the
department Of public works. a well
man. and forthwith wrote letter TO
the proprietors of the remedy in which
he says:
Il had been told by friends of the
wonderful results obtained by them
from the use Of Paine's celery COM
pound. After my severe attack OF the
grip | determined To try IL. / have
already found that my friends reports
were not at all exaggerated, and / wish
to join most cheerfully with them in
recommending the remedy to others"
Hundreds Of grateful letters have
been written TO the proprietors of
Paine's celery compound since the APP
pearance of the grip this year, telling
of the perfect recoveries il has affected.
The letters come from men and women
of many conditions. Few persons are
SO poor that they cannot afford TO have
this great remedy constantly in the
house, and none are so prosperous that
for their health's sake they can afford
to be without il. When so many men
and women whose words carry the ut
most weight in the communities in
which they live testify as they do to the
great benefit they have received from

Now, what is the grip?

Now, what Is the grip?
Can IL be avoided or prevented?
And can IL be cured?
Grip is characterized by a continued
fever. by a tendency 10 inflammation
OF the membranes of the digestive and
often the respiratory tracts, by pain in
the muscles, and by debility.
The grip i'm individual cases varies
from a slight disposition to severe
forms with grave symptoms-these
variations depending wholly upon the
health, age, temperament or nervous
condition of the person. Those preds-
posed TO rheumatism suffer great pain
in the muscles; persons Of nervous
temperament become low spirited, often
watched have been known TO commit
suicide. Several cases of this sort have
been reported this month i'm the news
papers. Headache is a constant symp-
tom. The bowels are generally con-
stipated. Whatever form the disease
takes there Is invariably extreme pros
tration. The danger To persons I'm pre-
vious healthful condition is slight.
1t has been absolutely proven that
there is one certain preventive of seri-
GUS cases of grip; and that there is one
remedy for persons suffering with il.
or beginning to be convalescent from
it's attack.

One of the strangeSt character,

produced has just been taken to the
county almshouse. said Mr.. Il. B..
Weeks. of Reading. Pa. at the Riggs.
Her name i Sophia Christian. and
she commonly went by the name of
Funeral Sophia, owing to her mania
for attending funerals. She never
missed one. and by reading the news
papers kept informed on all in the
locality. so that she often attended
three or four in the same day. 1t is
estimated that within thirty years she
must have witnessed 5000 funerals.
SOphia's long suit was to get up in
the part of the church where the rela-
tives of the deceased sat and she
mingled her tears with theirs as though
the departed were near and dear to
her. She would scale high back
fence to get into Il house of mourning
if denied access in front. 1t was a
cold day. too, when she didn't get
into a carriage bound for the cemetery
and the nearer the hearse the better
she was pleased.
After the ceremonies at the grave
her usual programme was to return
with the family of the deceased. and
if near the dinner hour she would be
a self invited gnest. The official that
got her to the almshouse used STRAIT
egy by telling her that funeral was
on hand and that an elaborate dinner
was to follow
