TRIBUTE.

Because my body turned clod,
And death sat on this shrouding sod,
My soul rose upward. seeking God.
Oh, thou who makest time to feet
Before thy holy judgment seat,
Lo, here / stand with muted feetl
In that far bower where roses spring
And little birds are choiring
] found no sacrifice to bring.
Only my heart. this bleeding spot
BY thee conceived. by thee begot-
Where worm Of hunger dieth not.
Take it, on, Lord, a scarlet stain
To set within thy robe of pain
And make thee dream of earth again.

Question 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 Bill
BUSINESS. 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, regul-
ate 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 head
aches and other aches. You only
need 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
