Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ
ilized world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard of appendicitis, nervous
prostration or heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of undi-
gested food, regulate 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 a few doses of
Green's August Flower, in liquid form,
to make you satisfied there is nothing
serious the matter with you. For sale

A year ago the school principals OF
Stockholm, Sweden. were instructed
to encourage the gathering Of pupils
in the public parks after school hours
for the purpose of playing outdoor
games. and several OF the larger boys
in each school We're officially selected
to lead the games. The innovation
proved popular and many boys who
formerly were in the habit Of spend
ing their late afternoons smoking
cigarets and learning bad habits on
the street corners may now be seen
each evening playing baseball, foot
ball and other athletic games. The
board of education of stockholm
thinks so well Of the experiment that
it has recently appointed three men
teachers to the places of supcrinten-
dents of outdoor exercise. 1t will here
after be their duty to get together all
pupils who are willing at the close of
school and lead them to the parks,
where. under the auspices of the
board. games will be provided daily
during the season from 4 to s D IN.

Georgia Showers.

Tho Georgia shower is a peculiar
one, and sometimes a single day has a
score of them. 1t is on you before you
know it. For Il few moments the
lightning flashes. the thunder rolls and
the rain falls, and it is apt to cease as
suddenly. Out comes the sun and
again as smiling and serene as though
no great damage had been done to
crops. There is something else that
comes on one unawarcs and that is
dyspepsia. Many people have suffered
years from this complaint. because
they have allowed Indigestion. consti,
patton and biliousness to become
chronic. H]ostctter's Stomach Bitters

PROPOSED ANTITRUST LEGIS-
LATION.

WASHINGTON, April 21.-Two meas
ures directed against trusts have.
been determined upon by the special
subcommittee on trusts of the House;
Judiciary Committee. The special
subcommittee has spent many days
examining the various remedies pro-
posed. AS agreed upon the remedy
is twofold, namely, a constitutional
amendment giving Congress full
power to deal with trusts and a new
antitrust law making the following
extensions to the Sherman Act:
First, requiring the branding or
marking of trust-made goods shipped
out of a State, so as to be easily iden-
titled as the product of a trust.
Second, prohibiting the inter-Stat
traffic of. trust-made goods not so
branded and making them subject to
seizure and condemnation. p
Third, requiring corporations hav-
ing a capital over 81, 600, 900 or doing
an annual business of 81, 600, 900 to
file a report of their affairs with the
Secretary of State.
Fourth, providing the process of
injunction against combinations
sending trust-made goods from State
to State or to foreign countries.
Fifth, prohibiting the use of the
mails to concerns and their officials
proven to be trusts.
