Questions Answered

Yes, August Flower still has the larg-
est sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers and grandmothers
never thought of using anything else for
Indigestion or Biliousness. Doctors
we're scarce, and they seldom heard of
Appendicitis, Nervous Prostitution or
Heart Failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigested food, regu-
late the action of the liver, stimulate the
nervous and organic action of the system
and that is all that they took when feel

Lion Cubs as Pets.

The most attractive household pets
in the entire animal kingdom are said
to be very young lion cubs. They are
docile, affectionate and quick to learn
tricks, it is said, besides being very

adopted young lions as pets and en-

SIXTY~FIVE LIVES LOST
That LIZ the Estimate of the Result of the
Atlantic Storm-Property Loss,
$4,000 900,

New York, Sept 1S.-The storm that
swept the Atlantic coast from Maine
to Delaware reaped Il harvest of sixty
five lives, as estimated at this writ
ing. Besides this it destroyed $3,OOO,-
600 worth of property in that long
stretch of coast, most of the property
being marine. such as boats. yachts,
ETC., with a sprinkllng Of summer re-
sort property on shore. AS a specimen
of the destruction of craft forty seven
yachts, including the schooner yacht
AnSOnia, were wrecked at BayOnne;
fifty slOops and launches and as many
more smaller craft were hurled upon
the beach at Perth Amboy and the Red
Bank clubs fleet of twenty yachts was
destroyed at mOOrings.
Much of the loss of life occurred at
Delaware breakwater, and most of it
was lost at sea, but there were a num-
Der of deaths ashore, caused by be-
ing struck by flying missiles and in
various other ways. Fifteen men were
lost at sea off the Maine coast alone.
Dispatches from Florida say that
twenty-one lives were lost by ship
wreck on the coast of that state when
the MeXicano, steamship, went down
with twenty-five on board, and only
one was rescued.
Later.-The steamer Vidar from
Caibarien, which has arrived, brought
six members of the crew of the Next
canO. This reduces the number of lost
to fifteen.

Postal Service a Life Work.
The postal service offers opportuni.
ties for the young men rarely to be
found in any other dine $lof industry.
These positions are all under the civil
service and when one enters the
service it usually means a life emoiu-
ment. The examination for admittance
s is comparatively easy partaking of the
common school branches, geography,
arithmetic. spelling, writing, grammar
and the reading of addresses on enve-
lOpeS. When one enters the service he
is advanced as his ability permits. Ad
vancemerts in salary occur each year.
Ore starts with a small salary and
within a short time he receives a
handsome lump sum each month or
each half month as the custom of pay
ing may be.
The law provides for an annual vaca
ton each year and the pay goes on.
A clerk is entitled to fifteen working
days, whereas a letter carrier receives
one half Of month.
The postal service is doing it's ut,
most to better the conditions of clerk
and carrier. The carriers are al
ready classified and are allowed to
work eight hours a day and no more
The clerks are as yet not classified
But it will not be long before a clerk
will work the same length of time as
a carrier does now The time of the
various clerks in the country is now
being very carefully recorded i'm an
ticipation OF reducing the time each
clerk deyotes to his work.
