QUESTION ANSWERED

Yes, August Flower still has the largest
sale OF any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers and grandmoth-
ers' 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
fermentation of undigested food,
regulate the action OF the live:, 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 is nothing
serious the matter with you. For sale

dragged Barbara out past Mrs. Ward
-"allow me to introduce Miss Clark,

Mr.. Morton bowed and shook hands
with Barbara, saying as he did so:
''I'm very glad to meet you, Miss
Clark"
And Barbara, listening and looking
with sensitiveness to detect a spirit
either of patronizing or of indiffer-
ence, could not detect either. He
spoke and lookedtas any gentleman

''Mr Morton was a senior in college

planned to Barbara, as they walked
out of the church. ''He had an oppor-

WISHED FOR BRET HARTE.
New York Man Tells a story Which
Made Him Sorry He Heard
1t First.
ITO Be Continued

At an informal setdcwn the Other
night, says the Chicago Tribune, of
few professional men one of them
said: Il see that Bret Harte is com
ing back to the United States ana
that he will visit some of the former
scenes where he found his best sto
ries. Bret Harte is like all LImeri
cans who 60 abroad to live. There
comes a time when they want to get
back home. They know that they can
always find hearing here. 1 sup
pose Bret Harte, however, will find
some changes in the section of the
country where he met the characters
and saw the scenes which made his
stories so well liked by all Americans.
Other writers have been in the field,
and if they have not told what they
saw as Bret Harte would have done,
they have at least taken OFF the edge,
and Bret Harte viii have to draw on
his imagination if he gives us any
thing original as the result of his
visit.
81 was out in the Sierras last sum-
mer, but I saw only one character
whom I think Bret Harte would have
enjoyed as a matter of business. He
was young man who, having touched
ali sides of mountain life, at last set
tied down in place where the inhab-
itants seemed to be huddled in order
to rest, as a minister. They told me
he was an all-round minister, by
which I was given to understand that
he had no creed. One of the inhab-
itants explained that all they wanted
a preacher for was to marry the mar
riageable and bury the dead.
"There had been death in the
community a few weeks before, and
the all-round was called upon to Off
ciate. It was his first funeral. Hav-
ing told the manner of the taking of
of the deceased, he said TO the mourn
ing ones by way of consolation:
"'His time was come and he had
to go. The Lord gives and the Lord
takes away, says the Good Book, and
the man who writ it knowed thar was
no use buckin', for he said right after
it, hurrah for the Lord
when I heard the story I felt
sorry, for I wished that Bret HartU
could have heard it first"

She introduced the young woman
who wac standing behind her, and
Barbara somewhat shyiy shook hands
with heavy-faced girl, who, how
ever, smiled little. Barbara was
astonished at Mrs. Vane, and instant
ly concluded that she was a character
in the Marble Square church and in
Crawford, as indeed she was.
my father and Mr.. Vane were in
college together" Barbara said, as
I they moved down the aisle.
"Are you sure?" The sharp eyes
seemed to look barbara through.
''Yes, ma'am. 1 have heard father
speak often of Thomas Vane. Before
he mentioned the fact of your living
in Crawford"
'Mr. Vane would be glad to see
your father again. Ask him to call"
Father died last winter" Bar
bara answered in low voice. The
tragedy of that business failure and
sudden shock which resulted in her
fathers death was too recent to be
spoken of without deep feeling.
"Dear me! 1t is strange Thomas
never told me. Perhaps he did not
hear of it. Is your mother living?"
"Yes." Barbara told her the street.
"She must come and see me after
have called. She is alone, you say?"
And again the sharp eyes pierced Bar
bara.
They had reached the door and
Mrs Vane tapped Mrs. Ward on the
shoulder.
''Mrs. Ward, you see that Miss
Clark comes to see Ine. 1 want a long
talk with her. Don't be afraid, my
dear. 1 don't want to know any more
than you are willing to tell re. But
I'm interested in you, and perhaps I
can do something to help"
She hurried out, leaving Barbara in
some uncertainty as to what kind of
help she meant. Would this woman
of wealth and social position help
her in her plans for solving the serv-
ant-girl problem?
The Wards were still standing near
tie door, and Carl was pulling Bar
bara's dress and crying to her to
hurry home for dinner, when the

Ger childhood's sheltered bays;
As now the tides Of age around me creep,
Protect my shortening days.
Thou didst defend my youth when sped my
bark
Out toward the open sea;
Al 1 approach the shore, unknown and

Still guard and care for me.
Becalmed by idle winds on placid geas,
Thy vigil did not cease;
Now tempests beat and when I shrink
from these,
1mpart uplifting peace.
When JOY, bright-winged, poised lightly on

Thou gently didst restrain;
Though Sorrow often voyages with me
enow,
My troubled soul sustain.
When many ships were nigh and skies were
bright,
knew Thy presence sweet;
AS one by one they vanish in the night,
Draw near me, entreat.
Lord. Thou hast been companion, friend
and guide
Ger life's unresting sea;
When Death, the gentle Pilot, stands be-

called them and they sat down to

But just what Mrs. Wards three
friends did say is of interest, because
it is a fair sample of what other
people of Marble Square church said
on the way home, and the young
preacher might possibly have thought
that there is still distinct place left

The amendment directs the President TO

Convention accepts these conditions it is
said the President can do nothing to

MAJOR DAVIS DENIAL.
Declares He Received No Bribes
While on Duty at Manila.

Secretary Root has decided TO have 4
thorough investigation made Of the pub
Hshed charges duplicating certain regular
army officers in the alleged frauds in the
commissary department in Manila He
has sent a despatch 20 General AiacAr-
thur calling for a cable report on the
subject, but no reply is expected until
tomorrow One of the officers against
whom Manila dispatches make accusa-
tions is Major George B Davis, who is
now in Washington on sick leave
Major Davis was an assistant in the
subsistence department here during the
Eagan regime, but was sent TO Manila
about a year ago. where he was placed
in charge of the depot commissary. His
duties there did not involve the purchase
Of any supplies ard he was at the depot
but very little owing to an attack of
fever soon after his arrival. Major
Davis declared today that he had never
received any money from any person
whatever which was not for the Govern
r1ent, and which was not fully accounted
for on the books of the depot at Manila
lie said:
Il never received any bribe nor was
any offered me. While I was sick I was
noIninaIIy IN charge Of the depot, but
Capt. James C. Rad, my assistant, was
in actual charge and frequently brought
or sent papers 10 me for my signature
On one occasion 1 received sum OF
money from Evans & Co. It was for a
large quantity of butter which had been
condemned by a board of officers and or
dered sold. 1t was sold at auction. and
Evans & Co were the highest bidders
l think the amount paid for it bysthem
was probably a thousand dollars SFsThis
money was of course duly credited on the
books Of the commissary Office
Major Davis explained that while in
Manila he and Colonel Woodruff lived in
the same house. but that 1t was for very
short time, as ne was soon sent to the
hospital on account OF illness.
They had at first occupied smaller
had a hard time finding a suitable place
They advertised in the papers and con-
suited real estate agents and were unable
to find anything satisfactory until the
Pitt House was offered to them. Contra
~ TO its rental being considered low both
he ana Colonel Woodruff thought the
price too high, but were compelled to take
it as there was nothing else suitable Soon
after Major Davis went to the hospital
Colonel WoodruT-s family arrived in Ma
Eiia and occupied the house with him
Major Davis says he expects TO return
to Manila Just as soon as he can He is
not yet recovered from an aflmeut Of the
