Circuit court convened this morning

turned a verdict of guilty and fixed
his punishment at three years in the
state ponitentiary at Eddyville.

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale Of any medicine in the
entire world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought Of using
anything else for Indigestion OF
Biliousness. Doctors were scarce,
and they seldom heard of append.
citis, nervous prostration 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, and that is all
they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. You
only need a few doses Of Green's Aug
ust Flower, in liquid form, to make
you satisfied there is nothing serious

With the assistance Of the passen-

touch his body at all, the force of the
fall breaking his neck. The train
was rounding a curve at the time he
