August
 Flower

For two years I suffered terribly with stomach trouble, and was for all that time under treatment by a physician. He finally, after trying everything, said stomach was about worn out, and that I would have to cease eating solid food for time at least. I was so weak that could not work. Finally on the recom- mendation of friend who had used
 your preparations A worn-out with beneficial re-
 suits, I procured stomach. bottle of August
 Flower, and con- menced using it. It seemed to do me good at once. I gained in strength and flesh rapidly; my ap- petite became good, and I suffered no bad effects from what I ate. I feel now like new man, and con- sider that August Flower has en- tirely cured me of Dyspepsia in its worst form. JAMES E. DEDERIcK, Saugerties, New York. . w. B. Utsey, St. Georges, S. C., writes: I have used your August Flower for Dyspepsia and find it an excellent remedy. Q

Interesting Notes from Kansas
 and Along the Line.

A carload of H, reford bulls, 29 in number, were taken ont to the San Bernardino ranch this morning by G. s. Baker who brought them from Kansas. The bulls are the property of J. H. Slaughter and will be placed on his ranch They are, with one exception, fast year calves, and are all of one size and marked so much alike tLat it would be difficult to tell one from the other. They are in splendid order and look as fresh as though they had come off Kansas corn field instead of a car. They were brought through in A T & F palace stock car, which accounts for their good condition. It s understood that the cost O: the car to Benson from Eureka, Kansas, was $l70, or frac- tion over $6 per head Mir Baker has been with MT Slaughter since his departure for Kansas with 200O head of steers. Mir. Slaughter has about closed out, having but 400 head to dispose of.
 The market has gone all to pieces. It takes good, fat, three year old range steer to bring $22 after fatten- ing on Kansas grass. Cattle in New Mexico are in a bad condition and to save them they are shipping train loads to Kansas and turning them loose to shift for themselves on buffalo grass. One shipper has turned 2OOO head onto the prairie m this way. At Deming Nevada shipper is loading 20O0 head for that state. They go over the s P, which is making a low rate, notwithstanding a report that they had declared the Nevada low rate off.

A Mystery

How the human system ever recov- CTS from the bad effects of the nauseOus medicines often literally poured into it for tine suppositive relief of dyspep- sia, liver complaint, constipation, rheumatism and other ailments is a mystery. The mischief done by bad medicines is scarcely less than that caused by disease. If they who are weak, bilious, dyspeptic, constipated or rheumatic, would oftener be guided by the experience of invalids who have thoroughly tested Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, they would in every instance obtain the speediest aid derivable from rational medication. This medicine is searching and at the same time a thoroughly safe remedy, derived from vegetable sources, and possessing, in consequence of its basis of pure spirits, properties as medicinal stimulant not to be found in the fiery locol bit ters and stimulants often resorted to by the debilitated, dyspeptic and languid.

IN looking over the victories which
 have been accomplished by the Me Kinley bill, the closing of the Ameri- can cattle market to the cattle owners of Sonora and other states of Mexico, should not be overlooked. Their cattle are dying and their owners helpless to do anything to relieve their condition. With the duty off, they would all find their way to east
 ern packing houses, and back into the country in the shape of corned beef canned tongue and boots and shoes. Mexico would willingly take off the duty on all of these manufactured products of their cattle, for the privi- lege of entering their steers without the duty of $l0 per head on U s soil.

 NEW YoRK-Michael Davltt express. himself on Mir. Parnells death as fol- lows: "Ny feeling about MT. Parnell is one of unmlxed sorrow at his sud- den death. The occasion demands the expression of deep regret that he should have been cut off at compar- atively early age. We should remem- Der only the good work which he per- formed for Ireland, career of useful ness and destination for his country. His recent unhappy conduct will, I am sure, be forgotten by grateful people. It was sad episode in his life which will not finger in the mem- ory of Ireland side by side with his great services
 BoRDENTowN, N J-The news of her sons death was first made known to Mrs. Parnell by reporter yesterday morning. When the reporter was announced, Mrs. Parnell evidently divined that he had some information relating to MT. Parnell, for she ex- claimed, "What has befallen my sonY Seeing that the reporter hesitated she continued: "Is he ill or worse; has he been shot or did he shoot himself?' The reporter broke the news to her as gently as possible and when he at last announced that MT, Parnell was dead the white haired mother fell backward falling on the floor. "Oh my son, oh my son, kind Charles, they have killed you" she shrieked. Her grief was heartrending.
 LoNDoN-Coupled with the announ- cement that MT. Parnell died was the news that Sir John Pope Hennessy, member of parliament for North Kill kenny, was also dead. Sir John Pope Hennessy, it will be remembered im- mediately after the O'Shea case, in December 1890, contested the North Kilkenny elec:i backed up by MT. PArpelPs opponents and defeated the Parnellite candidate, MT. Vincent Sully by 1l17 votes.

MEssRs EDITORS: Allow nc space in
your columns to reply to one "Ichabod
Crane" of Slabtown, who has made some
remarks in your last issue concerning
the condition OF the roads in that section,
which is my division. I have appointed
good men as overseers on all the roads in
my division, with instructions to work not
less than six days between April 1st and
October 1st, and if the roads have not been
worked it is their neglect, and my duty to
have the law enforced for their not COM
plying, which I will have to do if not
worked by October 1st. I trust that the
Overseers will do their full duty, and T
will not have the unpleasant duty of put.
ting any one 10 trouble or costs. was
through that section about two weeks
ago, and I did not see any roads in such
condition as "Icbabod Crane" describes.
In regard to the bridge, had arranged to
have the mud taken off before bis letter.
l will have to visit the Slabtown section
again this week to see the roads that have
been so much neglected. I have travelled
all over my division. and was thinking
that the roads were being well worked.
will say to the credit of some of the Over
seers near Shutdown that they have work
ed the roads we'll, but will say to those
who have not worked to look out, am
coming to see them. B. G. MARTIN.

Well, Mr.. Editor, our crops are ahead OF
any that we have seen or heard of this
year; the cotton is little late, but it is
well fruited. All we have to grumble
about is that we will not get enough for 1t.
Bad times on fodder pullers. This
section was visited by very heavy rain
last Friday night, washing the fields and
raising the creeks and branches out of
their banks. The DEVILS Fork was
higher than it has been for years.
Mr.. J. G. Gilmer came very near receiv-
ing severe blow on the head and face by
skid. He was rolling log over on the
carriage of the saw mill, when the skid
slipped and edged the side of his face,
bruising it little. We would have been
doubly sorry for our young bachelor had
he got seriously hurt, because he wouldn't
have the one that should be his" to nurse
him.
Mr.. w. II. Milford is down with mala-

many friends will be glad to see him up
again.
