Nature Smiling While Thousands Suffer.
 Paine'S Celery Compound The Great Spring Health Glver Makes Sick People We'll.
A Prominent Clergyman Tells How He Escaped from His
 Deadly Perils.

When spring comes with It's gentle show CTS, its balmy air it's bright sunshine and bursting buds, 1t too often brings to our homes scenes of suffering and physi- cal decay.
 The seeds of disease which were imper- ceptiHy germinating during the winter months. have developed and planted in the system dangers that now call for our instant care and attention. Neglect and proscrastination will only deepen exist ing perils and lead to death.
 Before the advent of spring, you must have noted symptoms, perhaps of indiges- tion. dyspepsia, rheumatism, neuralgia, kidney disease. liver complaint, function al irregularities, or nervous disorders.
 Take warning sufferers! the symptoms you experience are signals of disease. De- Iay not another day; hesitation and in- decision on your part may forever seal your fate If you have already made ef- forts to bansh your troubles by the use of other medicines and the treatment of physicians, and these have failed, we counsel you to put your full trust In that great disease banisher, Paine's Caery Compound. It's use for a week or two will convince you that you have truly commenced a new existence. Rev. w. F. AIdridge, a leading and prominent cler- gyman of Birmingham. Ala. says
 ''I had been afflicted for ten years with what 1 thought to be heart disease. but after having the physicians examine me. learned that I was almost dead from indigestion. They told me they could give me medicine that would relieve me but there was no permanent cure. Then be- gan using Paine's Celery Compound which gave me immediate relief. and I am now we'll and enjoying good~Eealth. can rec ommend Paines Celery Compound to be the best medicine for all ailments: if peo- pie will use the Compound freely they will have no doctors bills to pay"

tim of an accident Tuesday afternoon

so badly lacerated that an amputation n
of two fingers was found necessary.
His right arm and hand were slightly
burned. DR.. MacIaughlin of this
city, who had been called TO attend to
his Injuries, reports his patient as
doing nicely.
Mr.. Murray's m any friends will con-
gratulate him on his escape from what
might have proven far more serious.
