Cured in the river here. In the first
instance the water rose from two and
One-half feet to three freet, or almost
to the top Of the docks, carrying YES

dry were surrounded by water.

Paine's Celery
Compound
DYSPEPSIA, INDIGESTION,
AND STOMACH TROUBLES.

The tortures and evils of dyspepsia and
indigestion are experienced by thousands at
this time. The dyspeptic's train of evils
may be enumerated as follows: feelings of
dizziness, languor, nervousness, sleeplessness,
headache, distension of the stomach, loss of
flesh, difficult breathing, and the action of the
heart is seriously affected.
All forms of dyspepsia are quickly banished
by the use of Paine's Celery Compound.
The use of this marvellous medicine allays the
Inflammation of the nerves centred about the
stomach; it opens up the sewers of the body
and removes all waste matter; it cleanses the
blood; it makes new nerve fibre; it restores
digestive power, and promotes bodily strength
and activity. Mr.. Fred. Ross, Clarendon,
Iowa, briefly writes about his happy expert
ence with Paine's Celery Compound as
follows:-
sit gives me great pleasure to testify to the
merits Of Paine's Celery Compound. l can
candidly and honestly say it is the best medi-
cine in the world. Two years ago was suf-
fering from indigestion and nervousness, and
was SO run down that I could hardly walk
without help. 1 used two bottles of Paine's
Celery Compound and got better almost from
the first dose, and have hai; no use for medi-
cine since. I was completely cured"

Madison Democrat: The taxation
problems in Wisconsin are growing more
and more muddled. Somehow, the tax
commission, the governor and the legis-
lature have not been able to settle diff
cult questions that have troubled ex-
perts for century. AS our life and
business and investments become more
complex these questions become more
difficult and only the men who form
their opinions on the narrowest views
are dead certain that they are right.

Fighters In London Streets.

The reign Of George II. was u great
fighting time. Every man who went
abroad knew that he might have to
fight to defend himself against footpad
or bully. Most men carried a stout
stick. When DR.. Johnson heard that a
man had threatened to horsewhip him
he ordered thick cudgel and was easy
in his mind. There were no police, and
therefore man had to fight. 1t cannot
be doubted that the martial spirit of
the country, which was extraordinary
was greatly sustained by the practice
Of fighting. which prevailed alike in all
