A very appreciatiye audience wit
messed last night the first presentation
in Americas of "The Three Muske-

thoroughly capable one. Harry Gla-
zier as D'Artagnan was stranger here
until last night. Now he is favorite.
He was magnificent in the part. At
the close of the seventh tableaux he
got an enthusiastic curtain call with
Miss De Vernon, who was superb as
Miladi. Every member of the COM
pany was deserving of special mention,
the ladies being notably strong. The
costumes are accurate for the time of
the play, rich and numerous, while
the scenery comprises eight different
sets, elaborate and handsome. You
missed treat if you did not see "The

tional Church of Denver, COL, whose

Palne's celery compound, and am
much pleased with its effect. My ex-
treme nervousness has been diminish

to great extent restored. l shall con-
tinue its use.
And here is a letter from the pastor
of the Curtis Bay Baptist Church, the
most influential church in South Bal
timore, the Rev. William Il. Bailey:
Gentlemen: / propose to do what 1
can to let people know of your Paine's
celery compound, the remedy that has
done me SO much good, For six years
my wife was an invalid. Many doc
tors have first and last attended her,
but one bottle of Paine's celery COM
pound has done her more good than
the other remedies. Ihave myself taken
the compound and been immensely
benefited. 1 have given money to
many poor people in my church to
purchase the compound. You may
use my name if You wish, and will
with pleasure answer all inquiries.

best remedy in the world.
The Rev. A. *. Sanford, pastor of
the Thirty-ffth Street nj. E. Church,

The Rev. FL. j. Granllenard, pastor
of the French Presby terrain Church,
New York City says: ''I have fire.
quentIy been relieved of nervous
affections by Paine's celery COM
pound. "
The lesson to be learned is plain.
Attend to your health and that of your
family. Take no chance of miracu-
lous recovery when youT Il SrTes begin
to show signs of breakdown.
Paines celery compound, which is
within the reach of every family where
there is an afflicted member, cures
rapidly and permanently.

When, several yearsago, New York s
great Presbyterian minister made the
public statement that it was due to the
use of Paine's celery compound that,
after winter of exhausting work, he
was able to carry on his duties through
the enervating springtime with un-
usual ease and comfort
And when, little later, the learned
Bishop of Burlington, Bishop Michaud,
published in Endorsement of this great
remedy, saying: clipping that my
words may inspire those readers who
need health and and strength with
faith to try Paine's celery compound
and prove to themselves its worth
When, about the same time, tho pub
Tic statement was made by the super
intendent of the largest Woman g
Christian Association in the country
that "those who have been taking
Paine's celery compound are greatly
benefited and desire to continue its
USE
When the Rev. j. G.. Laird of Lon
don, Ont, who wrote to the proprie-
tors that, if he had only known Paine's
celery compound when he was first
afflicted with nervousness, he would
never have been placed on the list of
retired ministers
When these and hundreds of other
unsolicited testimonials have come
from ministers of every denomination,
there is no shadow of question Of
the sincere regard in which this great
est of all remedies for blood and
nerves is held by those who have used
it.
Jealous work, with no thought of
their health or nerves, causes the re-
tirement of large number of clergy
men every year.
1t is possible, however, to work hard
and yet keep we'll, if one will but pay
the proper attention to the benefits to
be derived from Paine's celery COM
pound.
