seems to hare a wonderful faculty Of
building up and arranging scenes and
incidents I remember once having
vivid dream Of going into house the
furniture and inmates of which be-
longed to the middle ages. So clear
was the dream that / had no difficulty
in recalling 1t, and then as went over
each detail of dress, armor, jewelry, or
naments and other objects seen In my
vision | realized that everything had
behcId was historically accurate-that
is to say, that probably in a fraction OF
a second my mind had conjured up
scene to construct which, with the
same faithfulness to detail, While
awake would have taken me several
hours"

You VIII Be Happy if Well.
Paine's Celery
Compound
Bestows that Health and
Vigor that Makes Liv-
ing a Pleasure.

If you are sick and out-of-sorts, it is in your
power to make yourself healthy, strong, and
happy.
There is not the slightest reason why you
should 60 through life feeling sickly, miserable,
languid, and melancholic. To be well and
strong, means happiness and true Joy.
If you are sleepless, rheumatic, neuralgia,
dyspeptic, or have the shadows of disease
lowering over you; if you are not as bright,
energetic, and strong as you were some weeks
ago, the use of Paine's Celery Compound will
tone up and fortify your whole system, cleanse
the blood, correct digestion, sharpen the
appetite, and conduce to restful sleep. Thous-
ands once in a haIf-dead condition owe their
present good health to the use of Paine's
Celery Compound. Mr.. VIM. S. Gibson, of
Pleasureville, Ky, who, through sickness and
suffering, was brought near the dark grave,
writes as follows, regarding his marvellous
cure -
:" have been broken down in health and
strength, nervous system shattered, kidneys
out of order, had nervous and trembling spells
off and on for the last ten years. have taken
three bottles of your Paine's Celery Compound
and all of the above mentioned troubles have
left me, and can now do good days work.
l go about my business all day long and it
don't worry me, and now feel better than
have in ten years. have a good appetite,
and can eat and get around on foot as active
as when was boy. My age is IS years"
