What is August Flower for ?''
As easily answered as asked. 1t is
for Dyspepsia. 1t is special rem
edy for the Stomach and Liver
Nothing more than this. We believe
August Flower cures Dyspepsia.
We know it will. We have reasons.
for knowing it To-day it has an
honored place in every town and
country store, possesses one of the
largest manufacturing plants in the
country, and sells everywhere. The.
reason is simple. 1t does one thing,

WILL WIDEN SALEM TUNNEL.
The Boston Maine will Double
Track Its Road From Boston to
Newburyport.

The Boston & Maine is making an Ell
fort to double-track it's Eastern division
from Boston to Newburyport, which
means that the road is to be double
tracked in Salem, the only portion OF the
division between Boston and Newbury-
port that is not so constructed. Is is
therefore likely that the Salem tunnel
will be torn completely out and recon-
structed for double tracks.
The engineers who have been survey
ing Washington street, in that city, by
orders of President Mcleod. finished
their duties Wednesday. The scheme,
as surveyed, is as follows: Dig up
Washington street, SO as to allow the
laying Of double tracks, with san extra
two feet of space between the tracks.
Build heavy stone abutments on either
side and across the top string heavy
iron Orders, to be supported in the
middle by iron columns to be erected
between the tracks. The street to be
then relaid on the iron girders.
Such plan is regarded as feasible,
4
and could be carried ont at no great ex-
pense. The northern end of the tunnel
would not have to be widened in the
least, while the southern end near the
station would have to be altered materi-
ally. 1t would be constructed, however,
in such a way that the width of Wash
| ington street would not be materially
impaired.
| The only objection the railroad offic-
ials fear is that of property owners on
the street where the tunnel is construct
ed. By the shifting of the tracks the
trains will pass in closer proximity to
the foundations of the buildings on
either side, and consequently the build
ings be subjected to a slightly heavier
jar. Beyond that no serious objection
is expected to the forwarding of the
scheme. Fl
