Marvellous Escape from
Death
PAlNE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
Does a Wondrous Work for a Lady
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 tortures had 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 Palne's
Celery Compound, and is enjoying true life
once more. She says
For thirty years l have been a great suf-
ferer from neuralgia in the head, and also
with rheumatism in the whole body. began
taking Paine's Celery Compound and soon
found l was much better. Before taking the
Compound, my life was such burden that
almost prayed to lay it down. was bedfast
every two weeks with horrible pain in the
head, back, and neck, until was almost
crazed. | am able to do harder work and
more of it today than for twenty-five years. |

Paine'S Celery Compound. l am satisfied
that my life has been prolonged many years
by its use
