Questions Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought Of using
anything else for indigestion or
biliousness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard Of appendicitis,
Nervous Prostitution, or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fer
mentation OF undigested food, regulate
the action of the liver, stimulate the
nervous and organic action OF the
system, and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches
and other aches. You only need u
few doses Of Green's August Flower,
In liquid form, to make you satisfied
there is nothing serious the matter
with you. Sample bottles at Eastman
and Meserole's.

our INDIAN POPULATION.
Herein We Are Informed That It Is
Not Diniinishing, as Il Gcn-
orally snpnosed.

An interesting feature of the census
soon 70 be taken is that relating to the
Indian population. Some discussion
was created recently by the statement
In an eastern paper that there we're
more Indians in this country now than
there were IN the time OF Columbus.
Thesc seems TO be n general impression
that the red@man is passing away. and
win In ascomparatively short timc be-
come extinct. While Il Is true thgt In
many tribes no. increase IN birthsovcr
deaths Is shown, andAsome have become
extinct, it cannot be denied that rs q
race the Indian is increasing rather
than diminishing.
A unique reason is given by TN Off
cial OF the Indian Office for the popular
impression that the red man. is passing
from earth. When the government
adopted the policy of segregating the
Indians in the interest Of the white set
tier by placing them on reservations.
generousannuities were offered il they
would copsent 10 tho removal. Those
were the days when Indian agents
waxed fat and rich on small ealary.
If was TO the interest of the agent 10
show up as large a number Of Indians
as possible in order to insure large dis
bursements, and, as the official cx-
presses IL, having nothing else TO do
with the money, the agent put il in his
own pocket. II was at that period that
the Indian population showed the most
marvellous increases. In those days an
Indian never died and thousandsawere
ictitiously born. 1t was later devel-
oped that instead Of there being mill
lion Indiaps in this country thorc were
but a little more than 100000. Hence
the popular notion that the Indian
Is dying out, and would himself, inNthe
natural course of events, soon solve the
Indian problem. While the census Off.
cials do not expect 10 find a very mate
