| For recruiting the strength and spent
energies of men and women advanced In
years. there can be no substitute for
Paine's celery compound. 1t Is the one
pre,aration considered worthy the name
of a true nerve food and blood remedy by
physicians throughout the country. 1t is
prescribed by them in every state in the
Union to tone up the system. regulate
the nerves, and restore health and
strength.
Nothing in the past has ever approached
it in power of building up weakened nerve
tissues and giving strength to the tired
body. In severe cases Of persistent head
aches, dyspepsia, neuralpia, and Sleep
lessness, due to nervous feebleness,
Pane's celery compound has a record OF
rapid and lasting cures that embraces
every city aud town in the wide sweep OF
the United States.
It's remarkable power over diseases lies
in its active repa cling Of worm out parts
by new healthy ones, and its healing and
purifying action among the most minute
tissues of the body.
Tine heavy, alarming pain in the back
and loins disappears; the growing pale
ness, nervousness and loss OF flesh is
stopped, and bright, buoyant feeling
gradually takes the place of that unending
sense of tire and nervous depression.
An improved appetite. sound diges ton,
uninterrupted sleep. and an energetic
nervous condition invariably follow the
use of Paine's celery compound.

BEE BUzzEs.

Moth worms are often very destructive
to empty combs left in the hives or stored
away.
Queens may be produced at almost any
time in fair colony Of bees by simply re-
moving the old queen.
On the average farm there is little OF
no expense in keeping a few colonies Of
bees except the hives they are in.
Fertile workers sometimes appear N
queenless colonies, which amounts to
about the same as drone producing
queens.
Have the entrances to hives and the
vicinity around them clean and con.
venient for the bees to get into and out OF
the hives. -,
As cold weather ensues the bees Will
arrange themselves in juxtaposition with
their supplies and use them as they need
without leaving the heat OF the cluster.
Bees are naturally clearly in their hao-
its. so that if they are confined too long
Mt a time they are apt to become diseased
especially if their food is not wholesome.
Bees winter better if they have part
honey and part sugar and strip to live on
during the cold weather. They need
some genuine honey for food. and II IL
false economy to try to do without it,
