Mr. John Scott Harrison, Jr., nephew of ex-i'rcsldent llairlson, whoso hard telling campaign work In tho Southwest showed tho Ktrong lamlly gilt, semis I no loiiowing appre ciative estimate of Paino's celery compound as an ideal resturatlvo for tho body and brain when oither are excessively used : KANSAS CITY, .Mo.. Jan. 28, 1608. Wells, Kichardson & Co. : Ocntlemen It uives mo pleasure to say that P.iine's celery compound has proved of Inestimable benefit to niu at different times, when tho labors Incident to my work and the nervous strain following arduous work in campaigns had taxed nie physically. .kVlth tho thousands of other mental workers,' wljo have been benefited by It, I can recouitncud it as a great resturatlvo and builder. Yours truly, JOHN SCOTT HAKKISON, Jr. Paino's celery compound Is the ouu means regarded sufficiently cll'ectivo by conscientious physicians to bo rolled on In cases of debility arising from whatever causo, and to counter act tho strain of unexpected, prolonged work and oxcKcmcut It is the only remedy pre pared under tho oyes of tlio medical profes sion, and lu strict accordanco with tho direc tions of a physician of acknowledged ability. No ordinary help, no well meaning hut un giofessional concoction, sarsaparllla or blood purifier can do what Paino's celory compound is able to accomplish ; curo men and women of such sorious diseases as kidney troubles, liver complaints and dyspepsia, or perma nently drivo away and there's tho point that no suirercr should lose sight of perma nently drivo out of tho system, rheumatism, neuralgia and all skin affections. Nerves and brain can ho workod out. This is tlio condition of thousands of exhausted nervous systems that havo been almost worked to doath in school, counting rooms, factories und stores. Shaky nerves, flabby muscles, muddy complexions and the general appearance of weariness and pain toll tho story of exhaustion. Persistent headaches go, witli nervous debility, runt ternuio throbbing of tho heart comes from a wretched condition of tho nervous system. Tho sure way to get back to perfect health of body and brain is to rcgulato and nourish tho nerves by means of Paino's colery com pound. It Is a searching cure for all diseases that indicate vitiated blood. It build's up the strength and roplaccs used-up parts by now, vigorous tissues.
