QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers aud
grandmothers' never thought of using
anything else for Indigestion or Bill
iousness. 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 fermen-
tation of undigested food, regulate
the action of the liver, stimulate the
nervous or organic action of the sys-
tenn. and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches
or 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. For sale by Jones & Gibson.

GAGGED, cHoKED AND ROBBED.
Remarkable story Told by Woman
and Discredited by the
Police.

Chicago, Jan. 13.-Two robbers, one
dressed as a woman, gagged. choked
and robbed Mrs. George K. Wheelock,
wife of the chief street engineer of the
city, in her millinery store, 6S16 Went
worth avenue, yesterday afternoon.
After taking SIS from the bosom of
Mrs. Wheelock's dress, the robbers set
fire to the building in the hope, it is
thought, that in the confusion they
might make their escape unnoticed.
Their ruse was successful, and now the
police are searching for the pair, of
whom only a meager description was
given by Mrs. Wheelock, who is pros
trated over the occurrence.
The crime was committed while a
score of persons were passing the
store. When the victim tried to cry
for help her mouth was covered with
an apron torn from her waist, and at
ter her money was torn from her dress
she was thrown into rear room in a
state of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES She
was aroused from her stupor by the
odor of smoke, and she rushed to the
front of the store to find it in flames,
and a crowd of people surrounding it.
The police doubt the story told by
Mrs. Wheelock, and Lieut.. Burdick. the
commanding officer of the precinct in
which the store is located, declared
openly that Mrs. Wheelock set fire to
the place herself. Mr. Wheelock says
he will make Lieut.. Burdick prove the
charges or eat them

trial will probably be conducted by
the supreme court.
The Colonial Dutch point out that
these prosecutions will serve to make
more rebels, as the Y consider the treat
ment of the prisoners designed to ter
rify them. Some Britons regard the
prosecutions as impolitic, in view of
the fact that the Beers are able to
retaliate upon the leo British officers
and the $500 privates in their hands,
and might do so unless all who fight
in the Boer ranks are treated as pris-
oncrs of war.
The Beers keep up acontinuous snip
