tory sermon we turn and ask: What

the Stomach and Liver. Nothing
more than this but this brimful.
We believe August Flower cures
Dyspepsia. We know it will. We
have reasons for knowing it. Twenty
years ago it started in a small country
town. To-day it has an honored
place in every city and country store,
possesses one of the largest manu-
featuring plants in the country and
sells everywhere. Why is this ? The
reason is as simple as a child's

thing, and does it right along-it

HER TRUST BETRAYED.

Mrs. Dr. Oatly, who lives about five
miles west of the city on Maple street, was
in the city yesterday and reports that a
robbery occurred at her home early yester-
day morning.
Upon arising yesterday morning and GO
ing to the stable for her rig in which she
intended to come to the city, she noticed
fresh tracks which showed that two
wheeled cart had been driven into the barn
lot and the horse unhitched from it and
hitched to herphaeton, the cart tied behind
and all driven away toward the west.
Upon further investigation she found that
one full set of harness and part of an
other was also missing.
On account of having no one to send
the tracks were not followed and Mrs.
Oatly hurried to the city to inform the
authorities, after which she went to Nc
Kenzies' carriage shop to get cart she had
left there sometime ago to be repaired but
she was told that it had been taken away
several days ago by a man who said she
had sent for it. This man was described,
and is undoubtedly person who has been
working for Mrs Oatly hauling off grain
to market. She had been warned by
friends that he could not be trusted but
she needed them not and has suffered
thereby. She allowed hin to collect for
the grain and he was often heard to re-
mark that it would be an easy matter to
steal part or all the money and skip but
as far as is yet known he did not do any
thing of that kind.
There is no question but that the officers
are after the right man and it is very

The Best wav TO See Lopdop.

LONDON, Aug. ".-The best way to see
and enjoy London-for you can enjoy your
self in the worlds metropolis despite the
rain and the fogs-is TO avoid the regular
hotels and seek private apartments. A
very comfortable room in good neighbor-
hood can be had for five dollars per week,
including attendance. The landlady will
buy and prepare your dinner and other
meals, if necessary, which need not cost
more than they do in New York. II it
should happen that you meet with mer-
cenary member of the lodging house tribe
and your supplies disappear in a mysteri-
Gus manner, the stealings win not amount
to great deal, since she will think more
of saving a threepenny piece from the mar
ket money than her American counterpart
would of a dollar.
But if you are fortunate enough to meet
with genuine cockney, what you will
save in valuable hints about seeing the
town will more than compensate for any
slight failings in other respects. She will
tell you the cheapest way to reach the
points of interest, where to dine elegantly
as well rs economically, how to treat and
tip the walters, as well as much other in
formation which is usually very expensive

Origin of an Old Fad.

A practice was common about fifty
years ago of rubbing the eye in a peculiar
way from the outer to the inner corner,
the result being, as was supposed, TO
strengthen the sight The practice orig
mated with President John Quincy
Adams, who had what is called ga
weeping eye," disease having csused the
closing of some of the ducts, so that he
was forced to wipe away the oyerhowing
moisture about once in every FIVE min
utes. He always wiped his eye from the
outer to the inner corner, and some one
noticing this peculiar action, and know
ing also that, although he had passed his
eightieth year, he never used spectacles,
connected the two facts and started the
theory that rubbing the eye in the way
indicated prevented the changes insep-
arabic from advancing years. For time
all the old people in the country spent
half their time rubbing their eyes, but
the fad soon died out, and is now scarce
ly remembered, save by some old man
who saw people practicing it when he
was a boy. = Interview in Sc. Lonis

The Pleasure of Matured Age.

Young people in this country are very
apt to think that the world and its
pleasures belong to them alone, that the
outlook for older people is colorless and
uninteresting, and that, at the best, they
can only enjoy life vicariously through
their children. This is, however, by no
means the case; the sense of enjoyment
is as keen, in most instances, at fifty as
at twenty-five, and vastly more appre-
ciative. To be sure, that which would
constitute the pleasures of one age would
not be exactly the kind which would suit
another.
Il do not envy you bit" said dear
old lady of seventy, as her granddaugh-
ters presented themselves in all the
bravery of their fine attire before going
to the ball. II have my pleasures, too,
and | would not exchange my comfort
able seat before the blazing fire with my
feet on the fender and good novel for
all of your anticipated triumphs."
Young people are really too full Of
themselves to enjoy thoroughly an alb
stract idea, too brimming over with
their own personality to enter entirely
into the spirit of art, music or the mystic
beauty of nature. Only those who have
learned that ''fiesh and blood cannot in
herit the kingdom" can feel the keen in
tellectual enjoyment that is warped by
no personal bias, no restless self seeking;
and whatever may be the glory of youth,
to it is not given the fuller and higher
appreciation that only comes with ma
turer years.-New York Tribune.

Bombav,s Big Dam.

The distinction is now said to belong
to Bombay of possessing the greatest
piece of solid masonry construction that
the world has ever seen in modern times
1t appears that for years past the water
supply of Bombay depended upon works
known to be defective, involving the
possibility of a water famine in that
great eastern seaport, and in view Of
this consultation of eminent engineers
was held, under the direction of the
government, with the result that a large
dam was determined on, to inclose the
watershed of the valley which drains
into the sea south of Bombay.
This gigantic structure, designed and
accomplished by the superior engineer
ing skill of T. @. Glover. is two miles
long, 118 feet in height, and 103 feet
wide at the base, with roadway on
the top "a feet wide, the stonework
alone costing 100000. The lake
of water which this dam imprisons is
some eight square miles in area, and
sixty miles of pipe perform the service.
Twelve thousand Hindoos were special
ly trained by Engineer Glover for en-
ployment on this dam.-New York Sun.
