Who Was Almost Crazed with
Pain and Suffering.

1t is well known that terrible rheumatism,
sciatica, and neuralgia cause more helpless
ness, acute suffering, and agony, than any OF
the other diseases that afflict humanity. The
great medicinal virtues of Paine's Celery Com
pound make it the only trustworthy SPECIFIC
for the cure of all forms of rheumatism and
neuralgia. Thousands of strong testimonial
letters from the most prominent people OF the
land, prove that Paine's Celery Compound
has banished these terribly fatal troubles when
all other treatment has failed. Mrs. Mar
garet Bethel, of Brainerd, Mimi, after thirty
years of agonizing fortunes had a desire to end
her life, if it was the will of Heaven; she al
most prayed for the time to lay it down.
Heaven-directed, she made use OF PaIne's
Celery Compound, and is enjoying true lie
once more. She says:-
For thirty years l have been great SUI
ferer from neuralgia in the head, and also
with rheumatism in the whole body. began
taking Paine's Celery Compound and soon
found I was much better. Before taking the
Compound, my life was such a burden that

Senator Brown said the legislature

and fix the salaries as it pleased.
Dickey replied that at this session

proposed that it be referred to the
