Paine'S Celery

TEN Cleanser and Health
Builder Makes Sick
People Well.
II is a Heaven-Sent- Bless to
Disease-Burdened Men
and Women.

There is nothing doubtful or uncer-
tain about the working and effects of
Paine's Celery Compound. 1t stands
supreme as q spring system cleanser
and hsalth builder. IL reaches with.
out loss of precious time the cause of
sickness ami disease in way that no
other remedy can do. Its first and
most important mission is the purifi-
cation Of the life stream, increasing its
volume and quality. II then stirs all
the organs that work sluggishly. 1t
restores strength. renews vitality, reg
ulates the kidneys, liver and bowels,
and makes people well and strong.
Fer these reasons Paine's Celery Com.
pound Is a spring medicine stands far
above all other prescriptions and REM
edies that promise 90 much and 60
complish 90 little. Mrs. X. o. Star
key. jackson. Mich, says:
For many years l suffered more
than tongue can tell from eczema and
blood troubles. In the spring season
my agonies and distresses were in
creased, and I often wished to die.
Boils and pimples added to my suffer
ings, and for weeks was not fit to be
seen. Doctors afforded me but small
relief. I spent scores of dollars for
advertised medicines, but got no cure
from them. got hold of one Of your
books and read about lady who had
been afflicted as | was and cured by
Paine's Celery Compound. l pre- cured
a bottle Of your Compound without
delay snd began to use 1t. After l
used the third bottle experienced a
blessed change the eczema and erup-
tions were disappearing. So happy
was I that continued with the med
icine till my face and body were clear
and smooth. I am new woman in.
every respect. am now well and
strong. and believe the cure as a per-
manent one. Nay heaven bless you in
your work of doing good to suffering

YoUTsEY's CONFESSION.

The confession" of Henry Youtsey
made in the Jim Howard trial at
Frankfort today 10 in substance SINH
lar to the published reports sent out
by the advance agents some time since
1t may be true or it may be false, but
il will be we'll to take it with a grain
Of salt.
The Republicans of Kentucky want
the murderer of Senator Goebel pun
ished, but they don't want innocent
men punished. They do not desire to
shield Jim Howard if he is goilty, but
they insist that he be first proven gull
ty.
1t is we'll known that the prosecu-
tion in has stopped to disreputable
methods in these Goebel trials. II
has sought to convict by perjured
testimony and been exposed in
1t. The trials" have been such that
the court of appeals has repeatedly re-
versed them. Therefore it is not IN
reasonable to presume that possibly
Henry Youtsey testified as he did for
q consideration. He has been in the
penitentiary long enough to know
what life time there means, and is
doubtless ready by this time to swear
to anything in any way plausible in
order to ingratiate himself into the
good will of the Democratic officehold-
ers. or possiably he has already been
promised pardon. At all hazards,
Henry Youtsey has sworn before in
these trials, and he did not swear as
he did today. II what he swore then
was true, what he swore today is lie.
He has sworn TO lie some where and
q perjurer is never entitled to credit
in any court. Anyone with the same
inducements Youtsey had could have
concocted the same story and told il
just rs plausibly as he did. He is a
self-confessed perjurer, and no one
should believe him.

1t is regretted that the new city hos.
pital project was dropped by the doc
tors. If they are in earnest about
wanting a new hospital, and there is
every reason to believe they are, they
should not wait for the people to vote
on the bond issue, but raise funds by
private subscription. The city has
failed repeatedly for a quarter of a cen
fury to build the proper kind Of q
charity hospital in Paducah, and there
is hardly a probability that it will not
keep putting it off until the present
generation is forgotten. Another
thing is that the people as whole
seem to be constitutionally opposed to
bond issues in Paducah, and would
doubtless vote down any kind Of q
bond Issue. no matter what 1t was for
or how small the amount.

The sanitation Of the city is being
sadly neglected. 1t would be . good
idea il the boards would at once take
some action tending to settle the con :
troversy over sanitary inspectors. The
last plan seems to be good one. Four
Of the police officers could be detached
for the sanitary duties and this would
probably not impair the police depart
ment's work, and would at the same
time save the city the expense Of four
or more sanitary officers.

The danger that turks in careless
ness Is we'll demonstrated in the mil
lion dollar fire in the Beaumont oil
fields. A workman accidentally kicked

started fire by which every company

five out of 175 derricks escaped, and
all the pump-houses were swept away.
