QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flowee still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers' never thought of using
anthying else for Indigestion or Bill
iousness. 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 sermenta-
ton of undigested food, regulate the
action of the liver, stimulate the nerv-
Gus 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 August Flower, in liquid form,
TO make you satisfied there is nothing
serious the matter with you. Get

Luxurious Travelling on an Inn.
DeriaI Train.

Foreigners travelling through the
Middle and Western states are aston
| ished at not only the comfort, conven..
fence aud even luxury OF the homes OF
the American people, but at the fine
railroad equipment and the service
| they meet. Special mention is made
by them of the elegance In furnishings
and conyeniences for every possible
need. "A great many Of our visitors
/ from across the water do not realize
that the people in the interior OF the
United States are educated and accus-
toned to the very best the land affords
and when travelling over the country
on an 'simperialn train like the
stNorth- w estern Limited their eyes
open in surprise at the superb equip
ages furnished. Their surprise is not
to be wondered at after an inspection
of the Limited running between the
Twin Cities and Chicago over the
North-W Western Line. No train
on the globe, either here or
in foreign lands, is fitted with finer IN
terror furnishings. Especially is this
to be noticed in the dining cars and
compartment sleepers, which are beau
ties unsurpassed bX any trunk line IN
the country. Nothing is too good for

They Made a Sneak.

Last Saturday night, while the sing
ing class was being organized at the
Presbyterian church, bashful, meek
eyed young man noiselessly entered
and succeeded in attracting Rev. Hig-
gins attention. He whispered to the
reverend his wishes, but SO audibly
that the whole band of amateur sing
ers overheard him. As Mr.. Higgins
is not regularly ordained preacher
he informed the young man that he
would lend his assistance by calling
Rev. Watson. The young man
seemed satisfied with the suggestion
anybody would do--as he couldn't
take the chances of losing the girl
since she had only recently said she
would have him. Some of the young
STEERS suggested to Mr.. Higgins that
the couple be married at the parson-
age, which stands close to the church
just west, and to place the soon-to-be
bride and groom infront of the window
80 that they might witness the cere-
mony from the church window. Twas.
done, and when the happy couple had
been pronounced man and wife, StheI
church bell began to ring and the
groom for the moment thought it was
he fire bell, and suggested that the
entire party make a grand rush down
own. He was finally quieted down
and went about his business.

Martin Makes a Roar.

The News is making big roar
about a petition, they claim purports
from the taxpayers and citizens of
Beltrami county, which was presented
to our honorable board of County
Commissioners at their first meeting,
when in fact the petition originated
at the News Office and was signed by
about one-twelveth of the voters of
Bemidii, only, and that was not even
thought Of until the News found out
that they were not going to get the
county printing.
1t is enough that allthe voters have a
say in who is to run our county affairs,
once in every two years, without hay
ing to be bothered with petitions
galore at every meeting to consider
something that the law does not re-
quire a petition for.

praise To the choice of the people in a
fair election and not chew the rag
because your financial air castle has
fallen. Shame! Put Your shoulder
and support TO the wheel and assist
our worthy officers in their duties. and
not throw dust in their eyes by fault

good in their behalf and show the out

but submit, the same as the rest OF the
