MAKES WOMEN WELL. Astonishing Record of Paine’s Celery Compound Among the Sick, sine’s celery compound is today mimended, hoth in public and in | 2 portion of the mos and is the most successful, J remedy— just as it was, at the most talked of—ever clan to his fellow practitioners Paine’s celery compound has than fulfilled the great things that were ex- pected of It when it was first annouaced to medical men as the discovery of that distinguished scientist, to the public. 7 “I have taken a number of bottles of Paine's celery compound,” says Mrs. E. Warren Davidson of 202 Warren ave., Chicago, “and consider it the heat of remedies in case of Insomnia, arising from torpid liver, nenralgia, rheumatism, ete. It has done for me ali that is claimed for it, and I cheer- fully indorse it.”” We all know women who are living on the “rag- ged edge” of nervous exhaustion. ‘They eat their food without relish, sleep with- ‘out refreshment and worry along day by day half sick, but refusing to believe it. These women who are farther along in poor health than they think, are the very persons who THE EVENING STAR, SATURDAY, DECEMBER. 12,. ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS What is Said of the Need of Street Im- provements, ‘The Daughter of Mr. Meran Returns te Her Home—Various Items of Curre! The agitation of the need of street im- provements has been commended on all sides, and, it is said, will bear fruit when the spring electicns come around. It 1s conceded on all sides that the city must have “up-to-date” streets instead of the rough and uneven cobblestones which are now used, if the population is to grow and business increase. King street, it is said, should be improved at any cost, so that the many strangers who annually: pass through that htoroughfare en route to Mt. Vernon may see that the city has one good street, if no more. The suggestion of citi- zens that some of the streets be macadam- ized with the broken stone now in the Jail yard has met with much favor. Restored to Her Father. Mr. Frank C. Moran called at the station house yesterday afternoon and withdrew the warrant he had sworn out against Randolph Cuyler, charging him with keep- ing a house of ii repute about one mile west of this city. Mr. Moran says that he has already gotten inore notoriety in con- nection with the affair than he cares for, and will not push the charge against Cuyler. Constable Wm. Webster returned from York yesterday afternoon, bringing with him Miss Moran, who was later turned over to her father and went home with him. She was staying with a former schoolmate in York, and with her own ac- cord accompanied the officer home. There has been a great deal of talk of abduction, but no such charge has ever been placed against Cuyler on the blotter at the station house. John Tolman, who was locked up as a witness in the case because he could not give ball for his appearance, was also re- leased. Friday Night Club. Misses Earl and Geraldine Taylor hand- somely entertained the members of the Fri- day Night Club at the residence of their parents, on Prince’ street, at a tiddledewinks party last night. Miss Jessie Armstrong won the first prize. Among those present were Misses Carrie Beckham, Marian Bryant, Bessie Jones, Emily Ayres, Hattie Gatewood and Jessie Armstrong.

It may gain him a few legislature who will vote for no man who is not a thorough supporter of the St. Louis platform. These have good reason to doubt if John H. Mitchell is the man they should re-elect to a seat in the upper house of Cor gress; for does not his past record show him friendly to the white metal and in- imical to the gold standard? It is this past record they want repudiateds and until it is repudiated Senator Mitcheli’s re-election is most assuredly a matter of much doubt. It was Saturday last that Senator tive Hermann.
