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 very
scarce and seldom heard OF appen-
dicitis, nervous prostration or heart
failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and
stop fermentation of undigested
food, regulate the action Of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and or
ganic action Of the system, and
that is all they took when feeling

LaGrippe destroys the health by
Iaralyzing the nervous system, there
by undermining the very foundation
upon which life and health are built.
When the disease gets a hold on its
victim it fills the blood with myriads
OF the disease germs which find their
way to the little nerve centers scat
tered throughout the body and there
begin their work of destruction.
Then follows the congestion of the
small blood vessels; chilliness, fever,
cough, sore throat, sneezing, running
at the eyes, splitting headache and
pain in the spine. 1t is this intol-
cradle aching of the body in general
and the sudden loss of strength
which proves beyond a doubt that
LaGrippe is disease of the nerves.

use of improved machinery aud by the
numerous advantages of central control.
But the whole question of whether there
may be any need of making laws to restrain
trusts may be readily answered when we
stop 10 consider that we find 1t necessary to
make laws to restrain men and that these
same trusts are made by these same men.
| Hence II men need the restraining influence
| of law, 1t Is even more necessary that these
| combinations of men which are so very pow.
erful with their immense capital should be
placed under the same control. A fair field
| and no favor is what should be demanded
| of ali and no more. We should not try to
crush such combinations Unfortunately.
In the last few years the organization of
trusts and combines has spread everywhere.
A few years ago too there was a universa al
| complaint of low prices. But now prices
have gone up and some people still are
bowling so about the trusts that they do not
| realize that these are good times. But
| trusts must stop unfair Determinations
| against small purchasers and at the same
| time the great combinations of capital for
Legitimate purposes must be protected Let
| us foster the good and restrain the evil.
Trusts can be of great benefit but IL they are
caught stealing or numbering let them be
punished lust as men would be punished.
The paper was discussed briefly by Mr..
\ A. l.. Chandler who seemed to think tn at
Mr. Cook had been little too lenient to the

said of this paper THAT II Is the best one

speaker and she held her audience spell

appearance, but her words are spoken with
so much feeling and earnestness that all

HIS JUDGMENT WAS WRONG.
to Whip All the Dogs in the
NeiEhbOrhOOd.

Sooner was waif, or, more correct
ly speaking, a soldier of fortune. No
one knew his antecedents. He had
dragged himself into Hogarth's yard
one day, worn out and exhausted after
a long run on the trail of buck.
There was no telling how far he had
come, as fast hound will cover many
miles in day, and keep it up for
two or three days. But he had driven
the buck into the lake, and the Ho-
garth boys had killed it; therefore
they treated the dog well, and as he
liked the place he remained and be-
came one of the household, relates the
Chicago Chronicle.
The time Sooner discovered he had
fighting blood in his veins marked an
epoch in his life. He overestimated
his ability, it is true, and suffered in
consequence. A new settler moved
into that part of the country and es-
tablished himself about six or seven
miles from Hogarth's. Regarding the
size of his family, he was far behind
Hogarth, but when it came to dogs
it was simply a walkaway. Several
breeds were represented in his collec-
ton, but the "yaller dog" FREEDOM
mated.
Sooner undertook to clean out the
entire crowd alone and unaided It
was something of an undertaking, and
he spent six out of seven days in the
hospital while the war was on.
He doesn't seem to be much of a
fighter" 1 remarked to HogartF one
day when the subject was under dis
cussion.
ooh, he kin fight all right" Hogarth
replied; cts his Judgment what's
wrong. Sooner's a fust-rate fighter,
but he's dern poor jedge of dorgs."
He was game, though, and stuck at
it until he had conquered each one
of the new dogs in turn, with the ex-
ception of a huge brindle bulldog.
With this dog he employed strategy.
He bowed down before him and adj
dressed him with smooth words and
made friends with him, and then one
day he enticed him over to his own
home, and all the dogs there pitched
on the brindle bull and half killed
him. Sooner became more blase than
ever after this achievement. 1t sc
plainly showed his superiority to all
the rest of the dog creation.
This fighting trait was unusual in
a hound, for as a rule they are peace
ably inclined. It served to accentuate
the fact that Sooner was not like
other dogs.
