Paine's Celery
| Compound
Is the Great Restorer Of Health For
the Ruler and His HumbleSt
Subject.

Sickness, disease and suffering re-
spect neither ruler nor subject. The
noted and high born have their trials
and physical sufferings like those in
humber stations. Social standing and
wealth cannot bar the progress Of
disease wnen the common rules of
health are violated.
Impure blood and weak nerves are
responsible for many of the common
diseases Of life. The experienced
physician will tell you that men and
women with pure, clear coursng blood
and well braced nerves, can never be.
come victims of rheumatism, neural
gia, liver troubles, debility, headaches,
or sleeplessness.
1t follows, therefore, that sufferers
from any of the ailments referred to,
should at once take proper measures
to cleanse the blood and feed the
weak nervous system with proper
nourishment.
For the happy accomplishment Of
this important work, Paine's Celery
Compound is the only safe agent, the
one great specific, the only security
against deadly disease and death.
During these spring days, Paines
Celery Compound guarantees a per.
feet regularity of the bowels, healthy
appetite. sound sleep, good digestion,
pure blood, strong nerves, and clear
brain, all of which mean full and
robust health.
Mr.. E. M. Sutton, eX-Mayor of Bur
lington, VT, one of the strongest and
heartiest advocates of Paine's Celery
Compound in the United States, tells
us in the following letter how he keeps
well under all circumstances; he
says
People have often asked me how

out in nearly all kinds Of weather and
travelling considerably, have no aches
or sickness. My one answer has been
that instead of waiting until am sick
IN bed and forced to stop work for
awhile, whenever.I feel out of sorts
the least bft, take Paine's Celery
Compound, which keeps me well and
strong. 1t is a great deal better in
my opinion to take medicine that
Keeps one well, rather than to wait
for sickness and then hunt around for

Fires Several Times at Burglar, but Can
rot Score a Hit
EDWARD COOLEY HAS NO BETTER SUCCESS
whole NeIehborhood Joins I'm Chase
and Captures Young Fellow Who
Has Just Left the 1
of His Best Girl.

Burglars attempted to break into the resi-
dence OF william F. Maus at 216 Lincoln
avenue Tuesday night. Mr.. Maus, who Is
a member of the firm Of Smith & Maus, 81
broadway, is Of the opinion that the bur-
glars followed him home from his place OF
business. thinking that he would probably
take home a considerable sum OF money
with him rather than leave It In the store
over night.
Mr.. Maus retired early and shortly before
midnight was aroused by his wife, who had
been awakened by hearing someone walk
ing about in the kitchen. Grasping his re-
yolver Mr.. Maus made for the kitchen, and
as he reached there a man opened the screen
door and fed into the backyard. He fired
two shots through the screen door after
the fellow and then followed him into the
ward. The fellow climbed over the fence
into the alley and as he did so Mr.. Maus
noticed another man jump over the fence
into the adjoining yard. He also took a
shot at the second fellow, but his aim was
poor.
Edward Cogley, who lives next door to
Mr.. Maus, was aroused by the shooting and
arming himself with a rifle fastened to
reconnoitre. He saw the fellow climbing
over the fence and took three shots at him,
but like Mr.. Maus his aim was uncertain
and the bullets went wide Of the mark
By this time the entire neighborhood was
aroused and a systematic search for the
burglars was begun, but without success.
A young we'll known society man who Is
employed in the ONCE OF a large corpora
ton had a narrow escape from being mis-
taken for one Of the burglars. He had
been visiting a young woman in the neigh
borhood and the hours had passed so rap
IDLY while sitting In a hammock that he
was unaware the midnight bell had tolled
when the shooting commenced. While max
ing his hasty departure he was corralled
by some Of the neighbors who had beer
aroused and was forced to explain before
they would allow him to go his way.
The burglars who broke into Mr.. Maus
house had opened the kitchen door with q
skeleton key, which in their hurry they
left behind them.
