The Mysterious Visitor
Is Nov Invading Many Homes.
1t Strikes Young and Old Who
Are Physically Weak and
Predisposed to Disease.
Paine'sCeIery
Compound
FortiAes the Body Cleanses
the Blood and Gives Strength
TO Resist All Attacks.

That mysterious visitor Grip, is now
invading many homes and striking down
the young and old who are weak or pre-
disposed to disease.
1t is now Well known that the disease
spreads rapidly to the various members
of the household into which 1t has been
introduced 1t accords with the theory
of infection, also, that the disease has
usually attacked the persons liable to
infection. Dr. Richard Sisely. in his book
on Epidemic Influenza" says the disease
is almost entirely propagated by infection.
In past winter seasons it has been fully
and happily demonstrated that Paine $
Celery Compound is a tower of sa6ety
when grip is prevalent. When this
scientific and health-giving medicine is
used it strengthens the nervous centers OF
all the vital organs; it purifies the blood,
regulates digestion, gives healthy
tone to the whole system, enabling young
and old to feel secure from the ravages
of disease Weak nervous, dyspeptic and
ailing people will find in Paine's Celery
Compound a true protector and shield
from the dangers of grip. A trial OF one
bottle will Danish all existing doubts.
