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
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 fermen-
tation of undigested food, regulate ac-
ton 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 few doses OF
Green's August Flower, in liquid
form, to make you satisfied there ia
nothing serious the matter with you

Northlnns' Ford to Close.

AS noted in the REGISTER some
time ago the Cement Company asked
the county commissioners to vacate
the road leading south from North
rups' ford to the east and west section
road and today the surveyor and
viewers appointed viewed The road
and the people who had objections to
the closing of the road were on hand.
An smicable agreement was reached
whereby the company agreed to put
the next ford east in excellent condi-
ton. The ford is a better one than
the Northrup ford as its approaches
are good and in time of high water
people have to go to the South Wash
ington avenue bridge anyway. The
company will close the road and run
their tram way across their land
without having any crossings to inter-
fere.
