MOURNING IN
many A FAMILY
Precious Lives That Tight
Have Been Saved
If Paine's Celery Compound
Had Early Been Used
Instead OF Putting Faith In
Worthless Cure.Alls.

There should be new legislation
against the exercise of criminal ignor-
ance in times of sickness.
Many good family is in mourning
today for the loss of relative who,
when first the symptoms of serious
sickness appeared, made the fatal mis-
take of simply taking the wrong medi-
cine.
AS soon think of stopping the sun
with n wave of the hand as of stopping
the onward course of disease in the hu-
man system with any of the various
patent connections under patent names
so numerously in the market today.
There is but one remedy known to
medicine that can bring new life and
vigor to WORKOUT nerves. restore to
their normal condition the functions
that depend upon nerves and brain,
properly nourished and fed, that cures
sleeplessness, allays Indigestion, sends
healthy blood coursing through the
veins, tones up the system, and makes
the weak strong again, and that is
Painc's celery compound--the discov-
cry of the greatest of Americas many
great physicians.
Paine's celery compound is not pat
ent medicine. 1t is the one prepared
remedy that has the unqualified en-
dorsement of those physicians whose
knowledge and ability have made their
names known not only among their
immediate neighbors, but throughout
the country.
No other prepared remedy was ever
recommended publicly or privately by
the head of the medical department of
a great university. No other remedy
ever had the hearty, bona fide endorse
ment of the wives and households OF
the wealthiest as we'll as the poorer
citizens in every community.
A single bottle. to be had of any repl-
table druggist, will prove its unequaled
merit to any family where today some
member suffers from the much-to-be-
feared beginnings of what before the
winter is past, unless attended to
promptly, may prove to be the final
break down.
"Paine's celery compound says
Hon. r. l.. Mckee, of jefferson City,
one of the soundest men in public life
in Missouri "Pane'S celery compound
is so we'll known that l feel that a
recommendation from ME can add very
little weight. but l do wish to CRATE
fully recommend 1t to those who have
never been so fortunate as to try it,
There is no season so favorable as
this for taking advantage of the won-
derfully renovating virtues of this
remedy. Don't begin the winter in
poor health. Nature does little at this
season to rejuvenate unaided the
fagged-out brain or to restore tc
health the diseased nerves. Paine's 5
celery compound nourishes perfectly
the bodily system. 1t cures diseases
of the important organs of digestion,
circulation, and excretion, regulates
the entire nervous system and supplies
the body with strength to combat dis
ease.

position. Perhaps there have been mis-
understandings on both sides. If there
have been we hope that matters will
be fully explained"
The tie-up yesterday was about as
complete as 1t could possibly be. Two
cars manned by Dispatchers Hemden.
Brown. Schands and McTaggert made
trips to Dunmore and West Scranton
on a regular schedule for the purpose
of carrying the mails in fulnllment of
the company's contract with the gov
ernment. A few passengers were car
ried on each trip.
Two cars were run on the Green
Ridge suburban and Petersburg lines
between the hours of and y. m. and
were crowded with passengers on ev-
cry trip. They were manned by Su-
perintendent Patterson, several of the
office employees and volunteer who
appeared at the companys office about
o'clock and offered to assist in rum
ming one of the cars.
AS far as could be learned there was
no disorder of any kind yesterday, ex-
cept the blocking of the tracks in all
parts of the city. The tracks on the
providence line are blocked with all
kinds of distractions all the way from
Carbon street and the same condition
exists all the way up the valley. This
sort of thing is done in the majority
of cases by small boys, who seem to
take a huge delight in it.
AT IA meeting of the executive COM
mttee held yesterday afternoon ways
and means for the conducting of the
strike were mapped out. Committees
were appointed to watch incoming
rains and from now on day and night,
there will be pickets posted at the
Lackawanna, Jersey Central and Della
ware and Hudson stations and at the
upper end of Lackawanna avenue.
These pickets are instructed to look
out for the arrival of imported men
and to Immediately notify headquar-
ters If any do arrive.
NO MEN IMPORTED.
The company has not yet made any
attempt to import any men but Gem
eral Manager Siliman said yesterday
afternoon that the company would
make every effort to run as many cars
as possible. He would not say wheth-
er any men would be imported
II have said that we will run our cars
and l propose to keep my word" said
he.
E. NJ Clarke, ir., one of the board
of directors of the company, arrived
in the city last evening about s
o'clock to advise with General Mana
ger Siliman on the situation. He was
in conversation with the latter for
some time last night, but denied him
self to newspaper men.
