rose the whittier outlines of an immense
iceberg.
There was no time to lower boats.
The huge mass was overshadowing the
vessel, when all at once it grated and
grounded hard and fast on an underiy-
ing shelf OF ice. Fast in this ice cradle
the vessel drifted southwark day after
day, the crew expecting an overhang-
ing cliff of ice to fall and crush the yes
sci or to have the whole ice mass turn
turtle"
But nothing happened. Only the
steady southwark drift of berg and
steamer followed, and day by day. as
warmer seas were encountered, the ice
mass grew smaller.
For three weeks the huge iceberg
dwindled, until, as it tilted. the White
law was lifted out of the water. From
this pinnacle the crew finally attracted
the attention Of the Cyrus, OF Hamburg,
Scarcely had the crew deserted the i'm.
prisoned ship when the berg turned
on its side, carrying the Whitelaw
down.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought Of US
ing anything else for Indigestion or
Biliousness. Doctors were scarce,
and they seldom heard of Appendix
citis, Nervous Prostitution 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 organic
action Of the system, and that is all
they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches.
