WHAT OvERwORK REALLY MEANS.

What long story is condensed in that word
which Mrs. Frye uses III her letter-as II over
work" were matter OF course.
How many persons ever stop to realize that over
work" simply that their vitality has not been
sufficient for the duties OF the day--the work has
probably been no more than normally healthy per-
could do with ease
Instead of calling it "over-work" it would be truer
to speak of it as-"Underyitaty."
Remember your strength is not in your muscles
the muscles simply work when the nerve force tells
them TO. Even your brain does not work by Itself
the substance in your brain cells depends getting
energy with which TO do it's work; and this energy
is force-the same great powerof-life that
actuates every function Of the body
Every form of weakness, or sickness or disease
results from lack of the strong nerve force which
should keep the organs working properly.
When one speaks of "a good constitution" one
simply means sound strong nerve system.
When the nerve system is not strong and we'll

describes:

"When weak and nervous, or restless from
overwork, dose Of it soothes and strength
ems that wake up bright and re-
freshed. and fully capable of going through
strenuous days work."-Mrs. Anna 3.
Frye, 1922 Dekalb Ave, Brooklyn. N. Y, Au-
gust 5, 1904.
The nerves need food to keep up their strength.
Their food is not the same food that we usually
know.
Prof Phelps Of Dartmouth University, was the
first physician to enuncate the principle which to-
day is recognized as Of the foundations of the
science of medicne.-the great enlightening truth,
that the system rules all the bodys health.
He sought and found the food that builds up and
restores the nerves-his celery formula which has
become famous Paines Celery Compound-the
celebrated nerve vitalizer and tonic.
Doctors know and value this prescription and make
constant use of it in their practice
It's effect is almost instantaneousthe nourishment
and vigor given to the nerve system by Paines Celery
Compound is felt at once.
The patient feels this at once and gains confidence
by it.
The stronger nerve forces have begun at once to
make each organ of the body do the work that ma
ture expects of it.
Two days treatment with Paine's Celery Compound
will prove its marvellous power.
Remember ths,-Paine's Celery Compound is the
prescription of of the most famous physicians this
country has known and all reputable druggists
sell and recommend it.
