invigorator the world has ever known.
The character of the testimonials to
Paine's Celery Compound is in marked
contrast to those received by any other
remedy. People with ample means Of
getting the most efficient medical assist
ance employ Paine's Celery Compound in
their families and recommend it 10 others.
It is . conspicuous fact and one that
should be borne in mind by persons suf-
fering from the effects of impure blood or
a weakened nervous system, that Paine $

who are treated by him are cured, tie

His wonderful exhibitions in public, IN

Lowell, and Mechanics Hall, Worces-

and the JOY of the scC~es who were
cured there knows no bounds, and has
spread the good news all over New
England until the name of Professor
Coffey has become almost a household
word, synonymous with the divine heal
ing Of ancient times.
Professor Coffey does not resort to
the use of dangerous medicines to pro-
duce these marvellous results. lie (by
the simple laying on of the hands,
transmits the vital force of the brain
to the defective parts and the result
in many cases is obtained in moment

durable diseases can be controlled by
few treatments.
BY this apparently simple method,
many who are being systematically
drugged to death are saved from pre-
mature graves and given the use of
their faculties and senses in short
time.

pointed They predicted the contest
would be close whoever won. Hennes-
sey's friends did not look to him TO
lead in the first few games. He takes
a few games to strike his gait. lie
thought himself he would gain at the
start on account of his rivals lack of
practice on the alleys. But Sheafe won
at the outset. First blood went to the
Boston man. He led in the first game
by a single pin. Hennessey got the
lead in the second game by four pins
but lost il Immediately, Sheafe putting
up 107 for his third game, while Hen
nessey got but SO. That gave Sheafe
20 pins lead. In the fourth game
Sheafe increased his lead to % pms,
and that was The highest he got.
Tie tide turned Hennessey's way. In
The eighth game he went ahead and
steadily increased his lead. He suffered
only two severe cutdowns. He lost but
three games from that time on When

14th game, Sheafe cut him down to 80
at the end of the 18th game, Hennessey
went back to 10 on the next game. He
went up to 1872 ahead on the 18th game.
The record game of Sheafe's 145 in the
next string brought Hennessey back
to 119 ahead. Sheafe brought his lead
down to III on the Dist game and that
was his final effort. He fell back stead

HAVE YOU TESTED HIS MYSTIFYING POWERS j?

perfection of a method which seems
destined to replace all other means Of
banishing pain and disease.
You marvel that such things can be
and right at your very door, and you
have not heard OF them; but to Prof.
Coffey, the great exponent of the prir-
ciple of Vital Magnetism, such cases
are of daily occurrence at his office and
pass with no notice except, perehapce,
the qualification in tho heart of a man
gifted to perform such wonderful acts
If only the sick and suffering ia this
community could be made to realize the
bountiful help that is within the reach
of their hands as Vouchsafed By Prof.
Coffey and his power of healing, the
crowd that would come to receive his
aid would be legion.
We know that such remarka BILE cures
as are being made in this city seem
almost incredible and these perform
ances seem more like miracles than
solid facts, yet they have been witness
ed by thousands of people as they
daily took place in Mechanics Hall in
the most public manner
John Ellerman had been told by ply
sicians that he had cancer of the stom-
ach. He told the writer that he had
received only five treatments and felt
safe in saying that he was entirely
cured.
henry SSdIleS, d. COtlul ileu Grippe
from rheumatism of is years standing,
has discarded his crutehes and gone 20
work at his trade once more.
Mrs. Ellen May Joyce had a large
goitre on her neck; today after only
three treatments there Is nothing left
! of it but little loose skin where the
tumor formerly was.
Peter Halloran was cured of deaf
ness of 10 years standing. and he can
, now hear the lisping voice Of his little
babe for the first time.
William Hardy, instead of being
( doomed to walk with the aid Of crutch
es all his life, finds his legs as good as
ever, and says he never ceases prais-
ing the name of the inspired healer who
cured him.
Annie Parker lost her hacking cough
and all the congestive pains in hor
! chest after the healing hand of this
! great man had touched her. Thomas
Kenna was cured of neuralgia. Sam
uel Birch Of liver trouble and kidney
disorder. Celia Butler of an ovarian
tumor Allan Carter Of partial paraly-
sis of the leg. Evelyn Jardine OF q
weak back. Joseph Phillips of sciatic
rheumatism and Amelia Chapten or
nervous prostration. All Of these and
scores more have been cured. So may
you, if you will but apply for aid.
Prof. Coffey has offices at the Lincoln
House, Worcester, where those who are
able and willing to pay may go and be
cured. Hours from $50 a. m, to $50
p. m, daily except Sunday.
10000 TREATED.
When it is understood that more
than 1000 persons have been treated,
benefited and cured by Professor
Coffeys method of magnetic healing
during the past few years, and that the
almost miraculous cures performed
have caused thousands of patients to
write letters expressing their gratitude
for the cures effected, the reason for
his famous and worldwide reputation
becomes no longer a question of doubt.
