Because man is growing old he
need not be an invalid. Old age isn't
disease. A man at sixty should be
well, and many at seventy are as we'll
as ever in their lives.
But as age comes on the blood needs
to be rid of rheumatism and the mus
cles of neuralgia: the nerves needs
feeding and the brain nourishment.
Paine's celery compound is food for
the brain and nerves. It builds up
the strength of the body. The saddest
ignorance is for sick person not to
know the remedy that will make him
well. Fortunately, few people have
failed to hear of the remarkable cures
from the use of Paine's celery COM
pound
For rheumatism, neuralgia, impure
blood, nervous diseases and kindred
troubles, it is a positive cure. The
experimental efforts of scores and
scores of so-called spring remedies
with which the market is constantly
recruited are in startling contrast with
the thoroughly scientific way in which
Paine's celery compound restores
health and vigor to the worn-out
blood and nerves.
New strength, new life, new health
come from its use-especially 10 this
true in the spring.

TO ORGANIZE LOCAL COMPANY
Americas May Thus Secure Fertilizer
Plant.


Not Ia very great many years ago,
when the citizens of Americas began
investing largely in manufacturing en-
terprises, fertilizer plant was includ
ed among others. It wac home in
stitutiOn, operated aud controlled by
Americas men, and always paid good
dividends.
In fact, no other enterprise here at
tanned such satisfactory results, and in
few years the stock more than doub
led in value.
At later date, however, the control
passed into other hands.
It is now quite evident that if Ameri
Gus is ever to have fertilizer plant our
people must ''go back to first princi-
pies" aud build it, as they did before.
There is plenty of money here seeking
profitable Investment Why not build
fertilizer plant.
1t seems a fallacy to hope that the
concern owning the remnant of the
once fine plant here will ever rebuild
it. Promises are easily made, cost
nothing and are not binding.
Next season the farmers of Sumter
will buy gusno made in Albany.
Unless, of course, they help them
selves as suggested, or buy their goods
from agents outside the trust. There
are several of these here. and there will
be others.
The Times-Recorder believes that a
capital stock of $4,000 can be raised
here for fertilizer plant. The farmers
will subscribe literally thereto. Put
the shares at $40 each and make it q
popular enterprise. in which all can
invest.
Let 1t be strictly home enterprise,
managed wholly by home people, and
everyone will work for its success.
Agltate the question at once and build
| the factory this summer.

Hon. F. B. Doran who has been sew.
eral times honored by the citizens OF
st. Paul by reelection as mayor, pos
sesses many of the characteristics that
go to make the reputation of ''sound
man, +" and is the last person in the
world to publicly indorse anything of
which he has not fully informed him
self.
Mayor Doran decided to take Paine's
celery compound this spring, having
heard much of it's wonderful effica-
cy from physicians, nelghbors and in
innate friends. He was not disap-
pointed. His experience with this
great remedy was so gratifying that a
few days ago he sent the proprietors
testimonial which adds conclusive
proof to the statement of physicians
that, of all the spring remedies that
can be had, Paine's celery compound
stands far above all others IN honest
and great results:
March 81, 1901.
Dear Sirs-T am convinced that
everyone, sick or well, needs to take a
spring remedy, and for that purpose I
believe nothing can equal Paine's
celery compound. [ commend it es-
