A Well Known Gentleman
Makes a Remarkable Statement
He Assures Rheumatic Sufferers
That One Bottle
Paine's Celery
Compound
B0nishe1 His PQins oIld AgODies

The startling and happy cures
wrought by Paine's Celery Compound
for rheumatic sufferers have deeply
impressed medical men everywhere, and
today, the best practitioners are recog-
nizing the great value of the Compound,
and prescribe it with confidence.
Paine's Celery Compound stands un-
equaled as n cure for all the varied
forms of rheumatism. AT this season
Ats good work is apparent in thousands
OF American homes. Men and women.
lame and crippled, and utterly helpless
from the terrible disease are being re-
stored to activity, health and strength.
Paine's Celery Compound is the only
medicine that rescues and saves the
despairing victim who is told that he or
she is incurable. Mr. l.. A. Freshman,
Gap Mills, West Va, writes about his
happy experience with Paine's Celery
Compound; he says:
ST had rheumatism in my left arm
and shoulder, could not sleep. and haa
no appetite. I visited my sister who
lives in frankfort, and she told me that
she had been afflicted just as was and
Paine's Celery Compound had done her
more good than anything she had tried,
and she advised ME to use 1t. got one
bottle and used 1t, and the result was
slept we'll, had good appetite, and the
pains of rheumatism left me and have
not felt them since; In fact, it has cured
me and feel like new man."

counted in the merger, the report from
Cincinnati states, and If this is true III
will be the means of giving the new
corporation control of nearly every boat
plying the Mississippi.
A local rivernan when asked con-
corning the project stated that he dld
not think that the merger could obtain
control of the rafters from the simple
fact that there were contracts for tax
ing the logs down the river for certain
concerns dated two or three years
ahead, in the hands of some of the RAFT
boat owners, and for this reason the
merger, with all its strength, could not
interfere with their work.
The riverman admitted that merger
of the passenger and freight lines
might be formed and operated success
fully, but he hardly believed that the
deal would be completely formed the
coming season.
So far as the Diamond 10 line is con-
cerned. there is little stock put In the
story of the merger. An officer OF the
company denies that an effort has been
made to buy the line or any other lines
so far as he knows. 1t is thought that
the story has gained currency from the
fact that an effort is to be made to
merge all the bodybuilding concerns.

MAY BUILD OPERA HOUSE.
Manager e. H. Martin Makes an Offer
to Webster CITY

V'aU0SVt sts tWoTNtU Vl0Neo al VUCI'
to Webster City.
Webster City, Jan. 21.-Manager z.
H. Martin, OF the Martin Telephone
Company Of this city, and leading
stockholder in the Mutual Telephone
Company Of Dies Moines, made a propo-
sition to this city yesterday to build IL
new opera house. Mr.. Martin has Of
fered to build $4,000 house providing
the city will donate him certain ground
upon which to erect it. This ground is
worth $4,000. The proposition is con-
sidered very generous one in view of
the fact that opera houses in small
cities do not pay. The Midland in Fort
Dodge has bankrupted two men within
three years and the new Iowa Falls
house pays but 1k per cent. With Mr.
Martins characteristic push and in
domitab1e will, however, it is thought
that new and modern playhouse in
this city could be made to pay small
dividend. The Commercial League OF
the city has taken up the proposition
and proposes to thoroughly investigate
the plan and cooperate with Mr.. Mar
tin in getting the land he wishes do
mated. Mr.. Martin is very public
spirited man. His hobby is his Webster
City telephone exchange and his am
bition is to do his share in the making
of Webster City.
