AUGUST FLOWER.

1T is a surprising fact" says Prof.
Houton, that in my travels in all parts
of the world, for the last ten years, 1
have met more people having used
GREEN'S August Flower than any other
remedy, for dyspepsia, deranged liver
and stomach, and for constipation. I
find for tourists and salesmerf, or for
persons filling office positions, where
headaches and general bad feelings
from irregular habits exist, that GREEN'S
August Flower is a grand remedy. 1t
does not injure the system by frequent
use, and is excellent for sour, stomachs
and Indigestion" Sample bottles free

THE BEST REMEDY FOR RHEUMA.
TISM.
Quick Relief from Pain.

NkAlCh, 4NCAAC4 AAOlA Z dAAs
All who use Chamberlain's Pain Balm
for rheumatism are delighted with the
quick relief from pain which it affords.
When speaking of this, MI. D. N. Sinks.
of Troy, Ohio, says: Some time ago /
had a severe attack of rheumatism in
my arm and shoulder. I tried numerous
remedies, but got no relief until I was
recommended by Messrs. Geo. F. Par
sons & Co., druggists of this place, to
try Chamberlain's Pain Balm. They
recommended it so highly that I bought
a bottle. I was soon relieved of all pain.
I have since recommended this liniment
to many of my friends, who agree with
me that it is the best remedy for muscu-
lar rheumatism in the market" For
