Paine'S Celery

Permanently Cures Sick and
Nervous Headaches that
Make Life Miserable.

Sicl; and nervous headaches are amongst
The worst ills OF life. The man or woman who
is subject to headache al irregular intervals,
goes through life bearing load of misery
and wretchedness that is terrible to think
of.
Headaches as rule, result from a dis
ordered condition of the nervous system.
Mental excitement, loss of sleep, bodily
fatigue, and disoTdered digestion are exciting
causes. Mhen the brain becomes tired and
delillaled, the whole nervous system is weak
ened, and headaches result. II the liver is
sluggish, the kidneys inactive, and digestion
deranged, headaches invariably follow. To
cure and prevent headache, the nervous sys-
TEN must be Strengthened and vilalzed.
The most persistent cases OF headache, nervous
feebleness, and sleeplessness, are permant ntly
cured by Paine's Celery Compound; it Is the
great reconstmctant of the nervous system.
