QUESTIONS ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower still has the largest
sale of any medicine in the civilized world.
Your mothers and grandmothers' never
thought of using anything else for Indi-
gestion or Biliousness. Doctors were
scarce, and they seldom head of Appen-
dicitis, Nervous Prostitution or Heart fail
ure, etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fermenta-
ton of undigested food, regulate the ac-
ton 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
only need few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you sat

with you. Get Green's Prize Almanac.

And yet ray of light can guide you
To guess q risky sits beside you,

Whence my own folk have fed away;
No voices call me to the moor
When at the noon the heat grows sores

Ny fairy birthright have lost,
And yet / never grudge the cost,
Because Of one who CLEANS beside me,
Whose dark brown cloud Of hair shall hide n
From sorrow, who goes seeking ever
For hearts to break and hands to sever;
The running brooks for her crossed.
Thresholds Of human homes I passed;
Ny lot among you mortals cast.
Because q cleaners voice was kind,
A cleaners laugh rang down the wind
Like q birds music among leaves.

on the ground, and Mr.. Edison promised
us all that he would give us an interest
ing demonstration of the apparatus that
afternoon.
"At the appointed hour we were on
hand in his private Office, and as a sort of
preliminary entertainment the great in
ventor said he would give us an illustra
ton of how the photographic principle
could be applied to children's toys. The

means of very elaborate arrangement

recite poetry. say its prayers or sing
songs of several verses. He dwelt al
come length on the immense sale Of such
Toys anu pOlulcu OUT HOW tudl ueiu dIOu'

nue.. "
"WhiIe he was talking an assistant
brought in beautiful French doll about
two feet high that had been fitted up with
the necessary apparatus. II was per
feet efiigy of coquettish little Parisian
with curly chestnut hair, saucy tip
tilted nose and a mouth like a cleft
cherry. We all fell in love with her on
the spot The assistant stood the fas-
cinating doll on the table and reached for
a spring concealed somewhere in the
back. Now, gentlemen he said well

way of a recitation With that he press
from the rosy lips in a deep, gutteral
German bass: ....

laughter. and the assistant switched off
the mechanism in cold fury. Who
made this doll cylinder| he beloved

body replied. Schmidt was the big Ger
man foreman of the experimental depart
ment. and. being a member of the Lieder
kranz and very proud of his voice. he
had insisted on preparing the phone

who was unmoved throughout the incl
dent was Mr. Edison. who, as you know,
is very deaf and consequently missed the
point of the joke. The remainder of the
doll exhibition was indefinitely deferred"

According to n convention between
New Zealand and Venezuela and tho
United States u parcels post system
became operative the other day be-
tween this country and the other two
nnmod. Altogether, provisions have
been made for the parcels post service
between the United States and five
other countries, They are now in
operation and are working sntisfnc-
torily.
The countries with which these
agreements have been made are Great
Britain. Germany, Guatemala, Ncne-
zueln and New Zealand. Other coun-
tries are anxious to enter into sim
liar agreements, and II Is believed
that before the expiration of ths
year number Of others will be
drawn and ratified by the legislative
bodies OF the countries Interested.
Since the United States entered into
the treaty with Germany many other
countries have been clamuring for
parcels post system with the Unit
ed States. This system permits the
mailing of a parcel weighing not
more than II pounds TO be delivered
at The door OF the person 10 whom IL
Ia addressed
There has been considerable outcry
on the port of the people In this
country because congress has not pro-
yided for domestic parcels post.
Owing 10 the lack of this service for
tigners have the advantage OF tho
people Of the United States, MS tho
former can mail packages 20 be de-
livered anywhere IN this country,
while this privilege Is denied TO those
living in the United states.
On the other hand. there are many
persons who do not favor It domestic
pnrceis post They contend the es-
tnblishment Of service of this kind
would mean the ruin OF business con-
Germs IN the small towns. MS the de-

popularity Of the honey Is that IL has

these bees are small producers is that.
