In Palne's celery compound, because
OF the great good that it has done me
and many others of my acquaintance
that has come under my personal
knowledge within the last seven years.
In 1868 l. had to give up business on
account of very poor health. I was
suffering from number of old chronic
complaints. Among the rest / had
complete nervous prostration from
which / suffered for six years. In
June, 1891, l commenced the use of
Paine's celery compound After TAX
ing few bottles | found that the old
complaints began to ease up, which
encouraged me to keep on with the
compound. / soon got over all of
those troubles that had chung to me
for so long, and got out and was more
like myself. Since then ] have taken
few bottles in the spring and fall as
tonic, and sometimes few bottles be-
tween as a preventive. / am inclined
to believe in the old adage that Gan
ounce of prevention is worth more
than pound of cure, so when there
has been prevailing sickness in the
community, such as grip, malaria, fe-
vers, etc. | take the compound, and
thus far have had none of these all
ments, although they have been prey
alent all around me, so that have
great faith in Paine's celery compound
as preventive. / have recommended
the compound to very many of my
friends, and have the satisfaction of
knowing that it has done them very
much good.

beneficial. The uninterrupted good
