Question Answered.

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 Append
citis, Nervous Pros tration 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, aud that is all
they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches aud other aches.

CAPT. WRIT HURT AGAIN
OUT OF BANDAGES u a WEEK
AND IN A RUNAWAY.
As Usual. the Venerable Mail Carrier
Reported His Trouble tn
the superintendent.

Capt. J. b. Writ, who collects mail in the
northwest part of the city, North Indian
apolis and HaughvilIe, added another run
away last night TO the long string of SINH
lar accidents in which he has played the
prominent part. His horse started on North
West street, and. after running several
squares, began to slack speed. The captain
stayed with his vehicle until it began to
stop and then fell out near Tenth street.
The horse cantered on down the street and
was stopped. His mail was scattered for
three squares and was picked up by patrol
men. The animal was bruised in several
places and the captain sustained several
cuts. and bumps about the head. As is his
custom in his accidents. the first thing he
did after picking himself up was to go TO
the telephone and call up Night Superin-
The bell in the postoffice rang and the
conversation started thus: rs this Mr.. Blu
chanan?"
"Well. the old sea dog has been wounded
again"
He then began to suggest that a man
might have to help him over the rest of his
route. and Mr.. Buchanan said one had al
ready been sent to assist him. The VEN
cradle sailor had his wounds patched up in
q drug store and made the rounds with his
assistant as if nothing had happened.
LONG RUN OF ACCIDENTS.
Captain Writ has the reputation of hav-
ing runaways with about every change of
tho moon, and comes out more or less
scratched each time, but never seriously
disabled. His closest call was last April,
when he was knocked down by a West
Michigan-street car. near the White-river
bridge. and. in the language of the motor
man. was literally planted over in a corn
field" This accident laid him up for sew
enteen weeks, and he had only been at
work a week before his wild ride on North
West street last night.
y short time before the street-car acct
dent his horse was frightened by a dog
chasing a cat. The cat ran under the
horses feet and the result was a loss of
skin TO horse and master and a spokeless
buggy. Since then the captain has enter
tanned a bitter feeling toward cats. An
other one of his accidents that is recorded
at the pOstofflce is a runaway on Indiana
avenue. in which he was reported to have
been killed. Night superintendent Blu
chanan himself started to the terminal OF
this runaway and found the captain bris-
Ting with industry and worrying about his
route.
These are only some of the few incidents
that have relieved the monotony of the cap
tain's life since he left the navy. He is
now SeVenty-four years old. but stout ana
hearty. and still declares that he is good
for the port OF Indianapolis" for many
wears to come.

of an old farmer that came to the city to
visit his daughter and her husband. He
was received by the maid in the absence of
her mistress. The old man related to the
maid his adventures I'm his strange city
surroundings. She at last induced him not
to wait until the late hour at which her
mistress and master would return. but to
go 70 bed. The old man agreed. but i'm a
few minutes returned TO the darkened par
Tor, clad in his night robe. and pensively
picked out an old tune on the piano. The
