THE WARNOCK FARM
Suffers Nearly Entire Loss Ol
Crop.

The wind and rain storm which
struck this city with such violence
Saturday afternoon. assumed the
proportions of a small tornado in the
southern and southeastern parts of
the county. The wind blew fiercely
from the south, carrying with 1t
heavy showers of rain and hail,
which did great damage to the corn
on the farms over which it passed.
In some places fences were leveled,
were destroyed, and
windows were broken by the force Of
the gale. At the county infirmary,
where the full force of the storm was
felt, several chimneys were blown
over, the shutters on the south eide
of the building were torn from theiI
hinges, and great damage was done
to the crops and gardens, On the

QUESTION 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 Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they seldom
heard of Appendicitis. 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
dose Of Green's August Flower. In liquid
form, to make you satisfied there Is nothing
serious the matter with you. You can get this

Nature makes all things beautiful In their
time: Every one OF life's seasons, when life
moves on Natures lines. has Its own charm
and beauty. Many women dread that period
when they must experience change OF life.
They fear that face and form may suffer by
the change. and that they may fail TO please
those whom they love. The value of Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription In this crisis OF
woman's life lies In the fact that IL assists
Nature. Its use preserves the balance and
| buoyancy Of the mind and sustains the phys
ical powers. Many women have expressed
their gratitude for the help and comfor,
given by 'Favorite Prescription In this try
ing period. Its benefits are not passing bu

A Long Lane That Has No Turn.

The Lane family are holding their
reunion near East Liberty, today.
They trace their ancestry to one
Rev. Benz. Lane, who was a noted
Baptist minister in his day. He was
married five times, and his numerous
descendants are scattered in many
States. All seem to prefer the State
of matrimony. Not one girl has
died an old maid, and but one boy
remains bachelor, although all did
not marry in youth. Not single
divorce has ever been applied for in
this large family, and all but three
have large enough families to pre-
any danger of racial suicide.

BRYAN SWALLOWS
Cold Bug Clark. Who Says He
Will Be Good.
Will Burn All His Old Clothes and
Fumigdte Himself.

Bryan has forgiven Clark, the Cleve
land gold bug, endorsed by the late
State Democratic Convention for u.
s. Senator.
Clark not only refused to support
Bryan and free silver in 1896 and
1900, but voted for Mckinley, made
Mckinley speeches and helped organ
ize Nc Kinley clubs
But Clark is a candidate now; and
he eats his humble pie, and says
he likes it. He met Bryan at Yer.
settles, Darke county, Tuesday night,
and after a conference with the Ne,
braska statesman, Bryan granted
him forgiveness, and gave him abso
luton.
Clark promised, if elected to the
Senate, to sell his bonds and banl
stock and become good Democrat
and gave such other assurances o.
repentance that Bryan made public
acknowledgement of the fact, ant
said he had faith in the sincerity o
his repentance. Anyhow, Mr.. Bryan
thought Clark a great improvement
over Mark Hanna, against whom hi
has laid up great grudge for taking
such a prominent hand in his defea
in '96 and 1900.
So Mr.. Bryan consented to speal
for Clark, and Clark promised to wor
ship at Bryan's feet, and the recon
ciliation, ION the surface,l is com
plete.
But when Bryan stultifies himsel
by thus forgiving Clark, who come
cringing at his feet, how can he ex
pect the honest free silver Demo
Gratis of Ohio to respect Mr.. Brya
iany longer.
