Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
lcrgest sale OF any medicine IN the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought Of using
anything else tor Indigestion or
Biliousness. Doctors were scarce,
and they seldom heard of Appen-
dicitis, Nervous Prostration of
Heart failure, etc. They used
August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of
Indiges ted food, regulate the ac-
ti,'n 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

At the approach of the vacation
season a timely warning against the
unsanitary conditions existing in
many rural neighborhoods has been
sounded at convention of the
health officials and sanitarians of
Pennsylvania. One physician in
sisted that the healthiest place in
which to live is the city, and not
the country. The ''old oaken
bucket" is all very we'll in poetry,
he thought, but the ordinary city
water has about IS per cent less
disease in it. He dwelt also in
other unsanitary conditions com
mon in the country, where town
ship health regulations are ineffcien,
or imperative. An instance in a
suburb of Philadelphia was cited,
IN which a nuisance from the house
of the employer on the hill en-
dangered the lives of the employees
resi- ding in the valley, but of which
they dared not complain. The EN-
ployer, it was said, was kind
hearted, and gave literally towards
the funeral expenses. The eviden
moral is to be CAREFUL in the choice
of a country abiding place. Such
care. generally exercised, woulc
soon compel, for selfish reasons, :
betterment of unsanitary surround
ings by those who cater to the sum

Richard Harding Davis at
Waldorf.

New York Press.
When a newspaper man gets to
be sswriter," by which is meant
one who dabbles in literature to the
extent of publishing books with his
name on the title page. the hacks of
journalism are at liberty to mention
his name. They never think of
mentioning each others names.
Richard Harding Davis is writer;
therefore we may touch him up.
One night his private table in the
Waldorf cafe was occupied by two
distinguished looking strangers,
whereat Dick protest to Oscar. He
had friend in tow and wanted his
rights. Oscar refused to throw. the
strangers out and our writer made
bold TO request them to take an
other table. AS their dinner had
not yet been served they courteous
ly yielded, and Dick thanked them
effusively. 1t occurred to him pre-
sently that something more was due
so he walked over to their new
seats and SAID: ssGentlemen, you
have been SO kind that perhaps you
would like to know who we are!
My friend is Mr.. So-and-So, and l
am Mr.. Richard Harding Davis. .
The strangers smiled. One replied,
bowling obeisan,ly: ''And per-
haps you would like to know who
we are. My friend here is Julius
Caesar, and I am Alexander the
Great"

thinks that in stating that the pre-

opinion of a large majority of the
ell-thinking people of the parish.
The new members, as we'll as the
old members who have been hon
ored with reelection, enjoy the conf
dence and respect of their fellows
and we feel assured that their ad-
ministration will be a creditable
one. In the election of officers we
believe they have acted wisely.
The president, Mr.. Billeaud, has
served four years as the juror from
his ward and his unanimous re-elec-
ton by his constituents and selec-
ton as presiding officer by his col
leagues, show how well he has done
his duty. The secretary, Mr..
Greig, and the treasurer, Mr.. ]. E.
Martin, are thoroughly equipped
for these officers in which they have
already served the public with eff
cheney.
The Gazette repeats that it has
confidence in the ability and in
tegrity of the present Jury and be-
lieve that it will give the parish
four years of clean and wise admin
istration.

largely because the Republican
party is afraid to change its candi-
date.
The convention is thus without
any matter to arouse publ. interest.
It's candidate Is determined on in
advance, and it cannot get rid of
him, although many leaders in his
party would like to do SO. Its plat
form IS also determined long be-
forehand, and could be written
without the formality Of conven.
ton. There are manv Republicans
who dislike the platform that will be
turned out, and who revolt at the
imperialism and expansion teach
ings of the president, but they are
forced by the conditions existing to
take the platform he has made for
them.
The lack of interest felt in the
convention is shown in the effort of
the Republicans to work up SEN
sation out of the vice-Presidential
nomination. There is no interest
in the second place on the ticket
no more to-day than in past con-
ventions, but an attempt is being
made to boost the vice-presidency
with special importance in order to
give some interest and enthusiasm
to convention which is likely
otherwise to be dull and stupid. 1t
is frankly admitted that the conven-
ton could finish its work in two
days; indeed, with little energy
and industry it could get through
to-day with its cut-and- dried pro-
gramme; but it is gong to be
heightened out to three days. This
is due partly as compensation to
the hotel keepers, saloon men and
other Philadelphians who bought
the place of the convention at a
high price, and largely because it
is thought that it would look ill to
rush things through in such a hurry,
and that longer convention might
arouse some popular enthusiasm, or
at least interest.
The campaign which begins to-
day will be fought on we'll defined
principles. affecting the very life OF
the republic. To-day's convention
ton will contribute the Republican
| candidate and platform, but it is
hardly likely to do more.

New York, owns stock in an ice
trust the Republican papers are
speaking about ssmoral guilt" and
illegal guilt. If Van Wyck were
a Republican it would be amusing
to know what kind of guilt it would
be. AS the trusts have long since
bought out the grand old party of
moral ideas, the fact that Repub-
lican mayor or Republican sena-
tor owned stock in a trust would
excite no comment among well in

The Republican Convention.

The Republican, National Con-
vention meets to-day. 1t promises
to be a somewhat tame affair, in
spite of the efforts made to work up
some enthusiasm over it. Mckinley
is not the popular candidate he
was in 1896. Even the most stall
wart Republican admits this, that
the president has lost ground and
popularity of late, and that his cam
paign is going to be a harder one
than four years ago. He won the
nomination then after vigorous
fight which had strengthened him;
he gets it to-day without opposition,

NOT Just.

A bill has been introduced into
the State Legislature, which, if
passed. will practically nullify the
act enabling Police Juries. to adopt
high license. The bill provides
that half of the money collected by
the parish in excess of the amount
of the State lice,.se is to be turned
over into the State treasury. The
State license being 500, should the
parish collect $500, it would have
to give the State $50. 1t is clear
that should this bill become law
few Police Juries will care to fix the
parish license at figures exceeding
those of the State. It would seem
that the advocates of this measure
are the opponents of high license,
as it is not reasonable to expect that
any parishes will be willing to adopt
the high license ordinance under
these circumstances.
From all accounts high license
has done a great deal of good in
some of the parish, and it is un-
fortunate that any legislation should
be permitted to hinder the efforts
of the local bodies to curtail the
evil influences of the grogshops.

An Expensive Congress-

An Expensive Congress.
Times Democrat.
Congress is beginning to figure
in the issues of the Presidential
campaign, and the fact that the Re-
publicans are acting on the defen-
slve shows that thew are not salts
fed with Congress, although they
Times calls attention to the fact
that the Republicans were defeated
few years ago on the showing
made by the Congress which they
controlled. That Congress made
a reputation for extravaganza with
its appropriations of billion dol
lars. In vain the Republicans
pleaded that Congress was not ex-
travagant; that the country had
grown and was now billion dollar
one, as they expressed it. The peo-
pie were not to be deceived by any
such pretense; they realized that
the bulk of the money expended
was wasted and that what we need
in our government is economy;
and they, therefore, swept aside the
party in power.
They will do the same to-day. AS
we have already noted, the Repub-
icans are prepared to concede that
they will lose the House; indeed,
the chairman of the Republican
congressional committee said some
time ago that the Democrats were
likely to control the House of Re-
representatives..
How much afraid the Republic
cans are of this issue Of extrava-
gance was shown the other day,
when Chairman Cannon, of the ap-
propriations committee, sought to
mitigate the big bill by explaining
that a large part of it was due to
the war with Spain. The total APP
propriations of the Sc ssion were
S7o9, 100000, of which, he said,
SI31, 247,I55 was son account of
or incident to our war with Spain. "
This will not do. The war with
Spain ended Aug. 4, 1898, almost
two years ago. The appropriations
made at the recent session were for
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1901,
and had nothing to do with tina,
war, but were because of Mr..
McKinley's war with the Filipinos,
which, after nearly a year and a
half of fighting, is still going on,
and which is likely to go on for a
great many years longer, in spite OF
the many declarations that 1t is
nearly over. IT the expenses are
properly charged to the Spanish
war, then the President bought an
instruction for US at cost 81
$40, 900, 900.
The Republicans cannot get away
from the fact that the Congress
which has just adjourned was an
expensive and extravagant one.
They cannot charge any portion OF
these expenses to the war with
Spain-they are properly charge.

No queen could have been the recip-

paid recently to Miss Mabel Langshaw
Of Cleveland, who works in store.
Men bent and crippled with disease
and age passed by her with their gray
hair uncovered, and many of them kiss

eyes they thanked her for happy day.
The men were twelve of the aged in
mates Of the city infirmary to whom
Miss Langshaw had given day In the
public park, n dinner and a long ride in
the street cars.
Miss Langshaw formed the plan Of
giving the old men In the poor house
picnic and worked out the project al
most alone. She asked the street car
companies to help and they placed two
large trolley cars at her disposal.
Among her friends she started sub

for the dinner at the park and more
than enough was contributed. Mrs. G.

A warning to Smokers.

There was an accident on Broad
way street car at New York the other
day that ought to be thoroughly ad-
vertised, because 1t is liable to happen
on any street car in any city at any
hour. 1t was an open car, with seats
running crosswise. A young man who
had been smoking n cigarette flung the
stub under the seat before him. The
wind and the jarring carried the stub
along until 1t reached the cotton skirts
Of lady who occupied the next seat
and set them afire. People smelled the
peculiar odor of burning cotton, but
paid no attention to 1t until this lady
arose to get Off the car Then the
smoldering blaze burst out, and she
was badly burned before 1t could be
extinguished. The man who threw
away the cigarette had the moral cour-
age to confess his fault, and took all
the blame upon his own shoulders. He
accompanied the lady to the nearest
drug store, where her burns were
dressed, then sent her home in cab.
