In one of our Iaege Canadian cities there resides one of Canada'smerchant princes who can at any, moment write his checque for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Some time ago this merchant prince - was a very sick man. Liver troublesa headache and insomnia, were fast pulling down a strong physical frame. - Doctors bestowed great care and at- tention on their wealthy patient, but , no cure came to cheer him ; in fact nw perceptible benefit was felt after. months of treatment. A voyage to the south of Europe" was then undertaken, and weeks were' spent at one of the mostfamous water- ing places, but no change for the bet- ter was experience. Returning homee the merchant prince received a visit front his faithful pastor, who. strongly urged the use of Paine'et Celery Compound, a medicinethat hatt: some years before cured it member of his family. The good advice of the; ministerial friend was promptly takena the great bealing compound was used,. with the result that in five weeks the - sick man and his family were overjoy-. ed with proofs of recovery and new. health. Restless sleep was restored,, digestion wasimproved, and a brighter • look came into Ins eyes and face. After four months' careful use of Paine's. Celery Compound and proper dieting,. , every deadly and treacherous symptom' of disease had vanished, and the mer- chant prince was a new man. What a. wondrous and. happy proof' of the life-giving virtues of Paine's Celery Compound 1 Surely the state- ment is powerful enough to lift. ali poor and helpless ssufferex s from thee dark pit of despair. This story of a. true cure was related by an intimate friend of the cured man.. who. gave permission to refer to it publicly without giving the names of' the once -dying merchant. *TELL DEAD."
