What Is It For7


 ed boys. Life is an interrogation point. "What is it for?" we con- tinually cry from the cradle to the grave. So with this little introduc- tory sermon we turn and ask: What is AUGUST FLOWER FOR ?" As easily answered as asked: It Is for Dys- pepsia. It is a special remedy for the Stomach and Liver. Nothing more than this; but this brinfui. 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 thought. It is honest, does one thing, and does it right along-it cures Dyspepsia. s G. G. GREEN, Sole Man'fr, ,WOCdbury,NJ.

yolapuk Up to Date.

Volapuk, the new tongue which was to bind all articulate creation together in the bond of a common language, has been but little heard of for some time past. In Belgium, however, the Vola- pul.ists are showing signs of life. A conference of Volapukists, as they are called, is being held at Brussels, and ac- cording to all accounts much enthusiasm is being displayed for Pastor Schleyer and his system.
 The Volapukists profess to be indiffer- ent to the ridicule with which they have been assailed. Their pet notion is des- tined to triumph and they can afford to wait. If the present generation does not reap the full benefit of their labors, suc- ceeding generations will do so. Such has been the tenor of their discourses. But in the meantime, if their figures are to be trusted, they have made solid prog. ress. It is only twelve years since Vola- puk was first promulgated to a world which is slow to adopt new ideas, and already by its means 3,0OO,000 of people English, French, German, Russian, Italian and Belgian--are able to con verse with each other on that common ground.
 Not only is this so, but we are told that thirty newspapers altogether are published in Volapuk in different parts of the world; that courses of lectures on the new language are held at the uni versailles of Munich and Turin, and that the Russian press censors are bound to be acquainted with it to qualify them- selves for their posts.-London News.

The Place to Grow Bananas.

The country most extensively culti- vated for the growth of bananas, and which for the past three months has so distinguished itself by the unusual quality and fine development of its prod ucts, is situated in the Republic of Colombo, Bocas del Toro being now the shipping center and principal attraction for planters and merchants engaged in the industry.
 There are at the present time, taken at a rough estimate, no less than 1S,000 acres of land devoted entirely to the cul- tivation of bananas, from which can be shipped weekly 30, 900 punches, all aver aging 250 bananas to each bunch. These are termed "whole bunches"-besides which about 9, 900 punches of smaller size, averaging 200 bananas each (which are termed halves) still remain uncut, and at the expiration of another week attain their full size, when they also are ready for shipment.
 At the lapse of the same length of time perhaps twice the quantity of punches are ready to be cut, and so on from week to week, month to month, and year to year. New plantations are continually starting up, taking ten months from the time the suckers" or plants, are first put into the ground to the time they commence to yield. New Orleans Picayune.

Evolutionists believe that the five senses were developed one after another, first of course that of touch, and that the nerves controlling them were spe- cialized i'll the course of the ages neces- sary for such accomplishment. In truth, the whole five senses are specialized vari- ations of the original general sense, that of touch. A ray of light from an object touches the specialized nerve of sight, the impression is conveyed by the spe- cialized nerve to the brain; thus we see A sound vibration touches the special ized nerve of the ear; we hear.
 The psychological evolutionist con cludes that these special senses, having been developed originally from the original one of touch, must still be cor related intimately in the brain. That having come from one sense, they may in time be so developed as to reach out and touch one another again. In brief. it may be that color will also impress the nerves of hearing, that sounds will also impress the nerves of sight, and so on. Late experiments show this to be true to a certain extent. It is not un- common for sudden sound to produce a flash of colored light across the retina. On the other hand, the sight of red or yellow makes persons whom Dr. Gruber has experimented with hear certain notes of the musical scale. A member of the English parliament writes that when he is fatigued mentally he catches at times a distinct violet odor, with no known source whence it can come. Will the five senses in time perhaps develop into sixth or universal sense?

The highest achievement in brain surgery is the successful operation for epilepsy and apoplexy. In one case on record the skull of all epileptic boy was opened and growth of nearly an ounce was removed. The fact that such oper- ations have been successful opens new world of hope to epileptics. It is proba- ble that the brain operation would like wise cure insanity in many cases.

CURRENT COMMENT.

In loo5 the ouez canal was opened. That made the shipping of wheat easy from India to Great Britain About the same time railroads began to be built with extraordinary rapidity in both In- dia and the northwestern part of the United States. Both regions thus being opened up began to produce wheat for export in large quantities. It was not till 1880, however, that the export from India began seriously to threaten the United States trade with England in wheat.
 The enormous production still goes on. Great Britain preferably takes her sup. ply of wheat from her own colonies. There are besides thousands of English, Irish and Scotch farmers in the Argen- tine Republic who send their crops to the mother country. Before the Rus sian famine our export of wheat to Eng land had fallen of over 30 per cent This much is certain-the United States cannot any longer depend on Great Britain to take from her the former quantities of wheat. Our own popula- tion will in time grow up to the point of consuming all our wheat at home, but it will not be next week, nor in five years
 Meantime dispatch says, "There is not an elevator in all the west that is not crammed to bursting with wheat" The storehouses at all the lake ports are in the same condition. In one day not long since there were at Chicago 10000 cars loaded with grain. Never before in the history of the country has there been so vast store of wheat within its borders. It is really worth considering whether it will not be well for farmers to let up on the raising of wheat for a year or two and try something else. The southern farmers raised too much cotton last year.

oil is sprayed into the tirebox by means of steam jet. The spray is consumed at a white heat in the frebox It has been found that these brick furnaces do not burn and crumble away so rapidly as might be expected in the fierce heat produced. The retort in which the oil was consumed was used in one case six months on one locomotive of the Oroya railway, and at the end of that time showed no signs of burning out. On one of the engines upon the little rail way that leads up Pike's peak oil is used instead of coal as fuel
 The evolution of the chrysanthemum is a striking feature in floral decoration. Twenty years ago beautiful, rather mod est flowers, in size like small rose, were favorites in the outdoor garden, because they bloomed late in the fall, almost on into winter. Four varieties were prom inent-an exquisite golden brown, bril- liant crimson, vivid yellow and a pure white
 Now there are several hundred varie- ties. No belle is equipped for the promenade unless she has a gorgeous yellow feathery chrysanthemum as large as sunfower at her bodice. At the chrysanthemum shows this Novem- Der are single flowers as large as the biggest cabbage head. Last of all, chrysanthemum salad has been intro duced, made from recipe obtained from the cook of the mikado of Japan, so it is said. The chrysanthemum grows no more in the open garden, but is forced in the greenhouse by the latest imported fashionable gardener.
 No flower has ever come into fashion with such whirl, or increased in size and variety so rapidly. The most fash ionable kinds are perhaps like the most fashionable bonnets--those which are most grotesque in shape. Where is it all to end? Perhaps next year the prize chrysanthemum will be so large that it will have to be brought to the flower show in a special car constructed for it. And yet, with all this new blown splen- dor, one happy enough to have had childhood in the country goes back in memory and asks, Are these gorgeous creations of the florist really any more beautiful than the brown and pold tho deep crimson, the splendid yellow and the snowy white of the old fashioned chrysanthemum that grew outdoors in the garden2

As an instance of the use that can be made of supposed waste products may be mentioned "isoprene," one of the sub stances left from the distillation of crude rubber to get the pure gum. It has been found that if this isoprene be treated with certain chemicals it will produce a real elastic rubber as good as the best. Another discovery is worth noting in connection with india rubber. Isoprene has lately been found in paying Guanti- ties in turpentine. When treated as the other product is, with the chemicals, the result is an elastic rubber which seems in all respects like the real gum elastic. Now, if the waste product isoprene can be turned into genuine india rubber, and isoprene is also to be found in turpen- tine, and this, too, can be turned into genuine rubber, perhaps the manufac- turers of rubber goods will not any long CT need to adulterate the rubber of com merce to such an extent that articles made from it are not worth carrying home.

Hard on t'rc Deaux.

There IS nothing that shows so plainly the mutation of hpnan affairs as tbe change in the manner of the sunburned maidens who were so lately wont to ganbol on the sands or roam the noun. tains OCT in their greetings of the youths who on those occasions acted as escorts during those long weeks of Adamless inactivity. In those sultry summer hours how the pretty creatures did their best to spoil the one or two specimens of masculinity that came within their ken' How they feted and pelted the callow tiedgelings until the boyish hearts flut. tered and the bump of personal vanity developed with alarming rapidity!
 All nowis changed-they meet their one time worshipers on the public thor. oughfares and a cool nod is all that in dicates that the fair ones recognize their existence. Sometimes this ceases when a real man is promenading y4 4h the tckle summer goddess, and little boys are looked upon as good enough when there was no one else to practice upon, but nuisances when there are actually three or four genuine men to pay all homage to the heartless maidens. Well, boys. take courage. Your time is coming, and it will not be so many years before these same autocratic fair ones will not con. sider disparagement in ages any detri- ment to matrimonial prospects that are not as fattering as they once were New York Commercial Advertiser

DO long ago as l77S, when the original articles of confederation were adopted by the founders of this republic, it was believed by the farseeing ones among them that Canada would ultimately want to be united with the United States. It is especially interesting and important to note that the view taken by the states. men of the infant republic was exactly the same as that held by intelligent Americans today on this subject. It was that Canada might come in or stay out, just as she wished. They would welcome her and let her be one of our magnificent sisterhood if of her own free will she expressed wish to join us; otherwise not. But they seem to have foreseen the commercial necessity that would in time draw the northern colony into the Union. It is another remark. able instance of the wisdom of the earli. est American statesmen.
 The few American states adopted the original articles of confederation, which preceded the United States constitution, in ITS. We are reminded by MT. Gil bert Shaw, in 1.-The Magazine of Ameri. can History" that article II of |. the doc. ument read as follows:
 Canada, according to this confederation and joining in the measures of the United States, shall be admitted into and entitled to all the nd n n an pft thfg mi Ipt, shall be admitted into the same unless such admission be agreed upon by nine states.
 Thus it appears that if we let in any outsiders at all, Canada will be our first choice.

Mulvey, was discovered lying on the
ground behind a pile Of bO1rds in a lum-
Der yard on Eleventh avenue, between
Twenty-fourth and Twenty streets.
