Celery Compound Restored Health and Strength
In 1891 I started Paine's Celery Compound after chronic illnesses and nervous prostration left me unable to work. The remedy improved my health, I gained twenty eight pounds, and I continue using it in spring and fall as a preventive measure to stay well. Strong nerves keep digestion and organ function active, and aging ills from nerve decline are prevented by the compound.
