steps towards such an object are said
to have been taken under the guidance
Of j. Pisrpont Morgan, James j. Hill,

fluid. A healthy increase In appetite and
a corresponding gain in weight and good
spirits follow the use OF Paine's celery
compound.
Paine's celery compound is the most re-
markable medical achievement of the last
fifty years.
1t makes peopls we'll. 1t is the one
true specific recognized and prescribed
today by eminent practitioners for dis
eases arising from a debilitated nervous
system. Prof Phelps gave to his profess
sion q positive cure for sleeplessness,
wasting strength, dyspepsia, biiiopsness,
liver complaint, neuralgia, rheumatism,
all nervous diseases and kidney troubles.
For all such complaints Paine's celery
compound has succesded again and again
where everything else has failed.
1t is as harmless as 1t is good, and 1t
was the universal advice OF the medical
profession that the compound be nlaced
where the general pubiir could secure 1t,
and thousands of people have year after
year provsn the wisdom OF this good
advice,
Only truly great and effective remedy
could continue, as Paine's celery COM

strength. They call for Paine's celery
compound
Tne story of the iifework of this great
physician has been often told, and Is
FAMILIAR to most readers.
Prof. Phelps was born In Connecticut,
and graduated from the military school
ut Norwioh, VT. He studied medicine
with Prof. Nathan Smith Of New Haven,
Conn and graduated In medicine at
Yale.
His unusual talent soon brought him
reputation and prominence. First he
was elected to the professorship of anat-
ony and surgery in the Vermont uni
yersity. Next he was appointed lecturer
on materia medica and medical botany
in Dartmouth College. The next year he
was chosen professor of the chair then
vacated by Prof. Robby, ana occupied
the onair, the most important one In the
country, at the time when he first formu-
lated his most remarkable prescription.
Today Paine's celery compound stand :

nerves and building up the strength of
the body. IL cures radically and perma.

general debility from which thousands OF
women suffer so long that 1t finally gets

When the gret Vt of modern phys.-

scientific study, gave to the science of
medicine the most wonderful remedy of
the present day, host OF imitat ors
sprung up.
No sooner was 1t announced that a
positive cure for nervous ailments, an
unfaiiing blood purifier, had been discov-
cred by Prof. Phelps, of Dartmouth, and
physicians everywhere welcomed Paine's
celery compound as the st-to-be-desired
discovery of time when modern ways
of working and living had begun to null
tiply diseases that arise from impaired
nerves and impure blood

this remedy from one end of the country

venezueIa DisineIined To Regard
American wishes.

Washington, January 1.-THE status
OF the Venezuelan controversy has NOT
been improved by the latest negotiations
between the United States and Venezuela
and this government has demonstrated
against the seeming discrimination OF the
Venezuelan authorities to take executive
oognizanos Of the asphalt rights, instead
OF leaving them to the determination OF
the judicial branch. The desire OF tnis
government has, from the OUTSET been
that the matter be left to the courts a nd
1t has sought to impress this view upon
the Venezuelan government. But the
latest advices have indicated to officials
that Venezuela inclines to take executive
authority over the subject. The United
States has therefore demonstrated against
such exercise OF executive authority and
there Is the fullest belief that Venezuela
Will not. under the circumstances insist
upon carrying out her view of taking the
matter out Of the hands OF the courts.
