BILI0USNESS,

Bilious symptoms invariably
arise from indigestion, such as
furred tongue, vomiting ofbile,
giddiness, sick headache, ir-
regular bowels. The liver Sc
cretes the bile and acts like a
litter or sieve, to cleanse impu-
rites Of the blood. By irregu-
larity in it's action or suspen-
sionS Of it's functions, the bile
is liable to overflow into the
blood, causingjaundice, ,sallow
complexion, yellow eyes, bill
ious diarrh9a; a languid,
weary feeling and many other
distressing symptoms. Bilious
ness may be properly termed
an affection Of the liver, and
can be thoroughly cured by the
grand regulator Of the liver
and hillary organs, BURDOCK
BLOOD BITTERS. Act upon the
stomach, bowels and liver,
making healthy bile and pure
blood, and opens the culverts
and sideways for the outlet
of disease. Sold everywhere
and guaranteed to cure.

New Things in Watermelons.
"Any new varieties this yearP"

"Any new varieties this yearp"
"Well, we have the vanilla and the
lemon favored watermelons. They
are got by injecting the vanilla flavor
or bit of lemon into the stem while
the melon is growing. The flavor is
taken up by the pulp and makes de-
licious combination. Only epicures
know of this wrinkle, and we therefore
have few of the doctored species on
sale. You can get toothsome dish
by plugging melon, injecting u little
fine claret, restoring the plug, and al
lowing the wine to be taken up by the
fruit. But, beware; the combination is
rs seductive rs Roman punch.
ANY new ways of preparing the
melon for the table"
"Well, I've been eating melons for
forty years, and | still prefer them
plain. Some of my customers, how
ever, like 'em mixed. One OF my best
clearinghouse customers has water
melon salad every Sunday in the sea-
son. She prepares it, she says, just as
she does lettuce--cuts the red part of
the melon up into bits and adds pep
per, salt, vinegar, and oil. 1t ought to
make 'em sick. but she says her board
ers just fight for it Another family
that l know of pour molasses on their
melons. A good many people, I be-
licve, always add Il squeeze of lemon
to the fruit. A Boston family that deal
with me are always particular to have
their melons firm and just ripe. and
don't haggle about the price when they
get 'em to suit. They have the melons
cut into little strips, and eat 'em with
cold baked beans. But, as I said be-
fore, for my part I like -em plain. -
