Liver Is King.

The liver is the imperial organ of the whole
human system, and it controls the life, health
and happiness of man. When it is disturbed in
its proper action, all kinds of ailments are the
natural result. The digestion OF food, the move
ments Of the heart and blood, the action of the
brain and nervous system, are all Immediately
connected with the workings Of the liver. 1t has
been successfully proved that Green's August
Flower is unequalled in curing all persons affct-
ed with dyspepsia or liver complaint, and all the
symptoms that result from an unheal
thy condition Of the liver and stomach. Sample
bottles, to try, 10 cents. Positively sold in all
towns on the Western Continent. Three doses
will prove that it is just what you want.

pHelene: A Lore Episode, a tale oflove, pas
sion and remorse, by Emile lola, translated
from the French by Mary Neal Sherwood, isjnst
published by T. B. Peterson 4 Brothers, Phila-
delphia. "Emile Zola' is one of the four great
authors in France of the present day, and there
he is called the cleverest of the four. His novel
'L'Assommoir, - to be issued in a few days by
ms, has already passed through fifty-eight edi-
tions in Paris, and 'Helene,'' which is ex
tremely interesting-indeed, exciting-has passed
into its thirty-eighth edition. One of the most
noted literary editors in New York wrote as fol-
