"the gentler sex," Is not necessarily
"the weaker sex," morally, mentally

Rev. Mrs. Lydia (Tollman is an exam?
ple of the womanly woman whose In?
fluence for good in the community Is on
a par with that of the manly man.
She Is not one of that silly class of
persons who,, broken down In henlth
by mental or bodily strain, not quite
sick enough to be abed, put off think?

' Improperly ' nourished nerves and
poor blood snon pile up a desperate
I number of disorders.
On the other hand, when reduced
health and splrltH nre early recognised
and courageously taken In hand at
once, when Paine's celery compound
Is used to restore the integrity of the
nerves and blood, no further trouble Is
to he feared.
Pulne's celery compound at once cor?
rects any unhealthy condition of the
nervous system. It forwards the rich?
est elements of growth to every nerve
cell and the remotest nerve thred
throughout the body.
Paine's celery compound positively
ami permanently cures every form of
nervous debility and exhaustion?mel?
ancholia, hysteria, headaches, dyspep?
sia, neuralgia and disordered heart and
liver.
The great number of cnthuslastlCUU
studied testimonials from men and wo?
men living in widely-separated States
Is one of the best evidences of how
P.nlne'fl celery compound is regarded
all over the country.
Woman's peculiar life brings a lan?
guor and llstlessness that are liest met
by Palhc'S celery compound. The dis?
pirited condition, the backaches, the
neuralgic headaches, the sleeplessness
and nervous debility, that so frequent?
ly attack women when their blood Is
robbed of Its vitality Is soon dispelled
when Paine's celery compound is used.
Mrs. Collman, writing October 110
from her home, 157 Scott street, Wll
kesbarre, Penn., says:
"Fully appreciating the benefits from
the use of Paine's celery compound. I
I recommend It to others. Suffering
I from sleeplessness nnd nervous debll
' ity, I was persuaded to use this truly
I greatest of remedies. Although 1 can
have every medicine from my brothers,
the druggists here, 1 gave Paine's cel?

four years old, was also treated with
it. and his nervousness.lias disappear?
ed. My father. Rev. C. Ktichn. with
whom I live, thinks a Rrent deal of

There are untold numbers of women
who are working and worrying enough
to drive them into ihelr graves If
