Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civil
ized world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for indigestion or biliousness.
Doctors were scarce, and they seldom
heard of appendicitis, nervous prostra-
ton or heart failure, etc. They used
August Flower to clean out the system
and stop fermentation of updigested
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 head
aches and other aches. You only need a
few doses of GREEN'S August Flower, in
liquid form, to make you satisfied there
is nothing serious the matter with you.
You can get this reliable remedy at

How TO Prevent Group.

1t will be good news to the mothers of
small children to learn that Group can be
prevented. The first sign of Group is
hoarseness. A day or two before the
attack the child becomes hoarse. This
is soon followed by peculiar rough
cough. Give Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy freely as soon as the child becomes
hoarse, or even after the rough cough
appears, and it will dispel all symptoms
of Group. In this way all danger and
anxiety may be avoided. This remedy
ia used by many thousands of mothers
and has never been known to fail. 1t is,
in fact, the only remedy that can always
be depended upon and that is pleasant
and safe to take. For sale by j. w.

IN BUILDING A HOUSE
The Position of the Building in the
Grounds Important.

The first point to tie considered in the
building of house is it's position on the
grounds. This is most important. Foreigners
are always impressed with the fact that we
Americans live so much in the public view.
In England houses are placed well back from
the road and surrounded by walls or hedges,
and there is a seclusion and a nominees
about life in such house which the Amer-
can, sitting at his plate glass window ten feet
from the street, can never feel We live too
much for our neighbors' eyes, writes Jose
pine Wright Chapman in the July Womans
Home Companion. The smooth shaven lawn,
with it's straight asphalt walk and its sym
metrical flower beds, has no beauty save its
tidiness. Contrast with this the picturesque
gardens surrounded by hedges and scattered
with trees and shrubs, through which may be
seen glimpses of the house within. There is
an air of mystery and secusion about such
house which makes it most interesting.
1t Is the fashion at present to leave our
lawns fenceless at the street line. This is
truly American. Let copy our English
cousins, and surround our little plot with the
good old fashioned hedge the gray stone
wall, over which nasturtiums may run. If
fences are used they should be studied with
the house and correspond with it's architec-
ture For instance, for IA colonial house a
picket fence, with each dignfed post sur
mounted by an urn, is only appropriate.
The Minneapolis journal., 1902-08-26
TO TAKE THE REST CURE
The Pillow Should Be Placed Under
the Feet.

The rest cure be taken in a semi-re-
clining pose in any easy chair, by relaxing
every muscle. Sleep may or may not follow.
1t is not an easy matter for woman who is
unaccustomed to sleep in the daytime to fall
into doze at will. Sleep should not exceed
ten or fifteen minutes, this time being mora
refreshing than hour. Place the hands
back of the head, slightly swaying it from
side to side; think of nothing; this is
absolutely imperative to attain the best re-
suits from the afternoons rest. When rest
ing the pillows should be placed under the
feet. instead Of under the head. The head
must be on level or lower than the feet.
The physician who is responsible for this
theory of resting declares that if people rest
in this way insomnia and nightmare will
be unknown. One Of his converts is the
Queen of Servia. She eschews the soft bed
and down pillows and sleeps on a narrow
divan, spread with a hard, unyielding mat
tress and without the vestige Of pillow un-
der her head, but one under her feet By
this method she hopes to preserve the best
figure and most stately carriage in all Eu-
ropes royalty.
