PAINR’S CELERY COMPOUND
Recommended by Rey. C. M. Tyler, a Methodist Minister of Nova Scotia.

It Saves the Life of Mr. George W. Parke.
A Gain in Flesh of Thirty-Two Pounds in Three Weeks.
Amongst professions! men who are ac ive end ardent advocates of Paine’s Celery Compound, clergyman are found who never weary in reeommending the wonderful med cine to members of their churches whe are ailirg, sick and diseased.
The true and honest clergymen who has bimeelf experienced the life-giving powers of Paine’s Celery Compound—who has been ra:red from weakness of bely to full bealth and vigor, feela it a duty tospeak to others of the only true health and strength builder that the worid has ever seen,
Mr. G. W. Parkes, once near the dark grave, but rescued and saved by Parne’s Celery Compound after failures of his doctors, sends the following letter :
“While at sea l was taken sick, which compelled me to absndoo my work and seek bome and rest. I consulted the doc tors who fprovoancel it ty; hoid oer slow fever. I suffered eevereiy from night sweats, and cold chills during the day Added tothis I was extremely nervous, which weakened me and reduced my ficeh until I wasa mere ckeleton. This con- tinued until laet winter, when wy wife aud friends began to deepair of my re- covery, as the medicine [ took produced no good, and I was gradually growing worse.
Through the influence of the Rev. C. M. Tyler, I was induced to give Paine’s Celery Compound a trial, and I can truly say it worked wonders. The Urst bottle gave me great relief, and five bottles complete - ly cured me. 1 gained thirty-two pounds in three weeks, andam now strong and healthy. 1 could urge the suffering any- where to give Paine’s Celery Compound a trial.”
