Col. Joseph
One of Sheridan's Commanders Saved
by Paine's Celery Compound.
Col. Joseph I.. Follctt of Xcw York has a
national reputation.
At the age of 21, Col. Follctt enlisted In
Battery G., First Missouri Light Artillery,
and soon rose to its command. At Lookout
Mountain, his was tho only Battery that
reached the summit.
Since the war ho has devoted himself to
mechanical engineering, and has invented
several important improvements on the sew
ing machine, and a bicycle that promises to
bo ono of tho surprises of next season.
Tho tension on tho nervous system of an
inventor, kept up for months and months,
seriously weakened the health of a busy
brain worker like.Col. Follett, and his con
stitution, which even the hardships of war
did not weaken, threatened to succumb to
nervous exhaustion.
What Col. Follett has to say in regard to
his restoration to health, cannot fail to carry
great weight. In a letter to Wells & Hich-
ardson Co., of Burlington, Vt., he writes :
"When suffering from mental exhaustion
and a generally disorganized Bystcm, and
overwork, I used Paine's celery compound.
"Tho compound acted liko a charm on my
bowels and kept them in fine condition, and
I experienced great relief from my brain
troubles.
"I have not used Paine's celery compound
for six mouths, but I shall when in need of

I have recommended it to a great many,

"It is the best general remedy I ever used
or knew anything about."
When tho nervous system has become
weakened from any cause, Palno's celery
compound builds it up as nothing else can.
It makes people well.
People in every walk of life have reason to
bo grateful to Prof. Phelps, of Dartmouth,
the eminent scientist who discovered Paine's ,
celery compound. Ho understood the pe
culiar needs of tho nervous system; he knew
that tho backache, headache, sleeplessness,
loss of appetite, and disordered blood all
mean that the nerves are weakened and.iu
adequate to the demands upon them. Tho
expcrlenco of thousands has proven all over
this broad country that only Paine's celery
compound will give health to tho nerves,
and through them to the entire body.
Colleges conferred upon Dr. Phelps their
highest honors for his invaluable investiga
tions in medicine, but all this seems insig
nillcant in comparison with tho chorus of
gratitude that has gone up all over the
world fiom men, women and children, who
havo outgrown weakness and the lack of
health by the use of Paine's celery com
pound, the mo?t wondcifiil nerve and blood
restorative.
