Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the larg-
est sale of any medicine in the civilized
world Your mothers and grandmoth.
ers never thought OF using anything else
for indigestion or billiousness. 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 undigested food, regu.
late the oction 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 a few
doses OF Green's August Flower, in
liquid form, to make you satisfied there
is nothing serious the matter with you.

about an adjournment after the meeting

uteS.
The announcements in The Star yester-
day and the day before of the course pro-
posed to be followed acquainted several
members of the committee with the real
intention of those behind the call for the
