An Explanation.
What isthis"nervons trouble" with
which so many seem now to be af
flicted? If you will remember a few
years ago the word Malaria was com
paratively unknown, to-day it is as
common as any word in the English
language, yet this word covers only
tho meaning of another word used by
our forefathers in times past. So it
is with nervous diseases, as they and
Malaria are intended to cover what
our grandfathers called Billiousncss,
and all aro caused by troubles that
arise from a diseased condition of the
Liver which in performing its func
tions finding it cannot dispose of tho
bde through the ordinary channel is
compelled to pass it off through tho
system, causing nervous troubles,
Malaria, Billions Fever, etc. You
who are suffering can well appreciate
a cure. We recommend Green's Au
gust Flower. Its enres aro mar
velous. Of Local Interest.
Tho bill introduced by senator
Mitchell providing for the purchase
of a site and the construction of a
wharf in Astoria for tho use of the
ligbthonse department has been re
ported back by senator Dolph, from
the committee on commerce of the
senate, with the recommendation
that the appropriation for tho same
be S15.000 instead otSlO.OOO, as
originally specified in the bill.

scratch every night until I was raw, then tho
next night tho scalos, boing formed mean

I consult oil tho doctors in tho country, but
withoutnid. After giving up all hopcaofre

and obtained almost immediato relief. X be
gan to notice that tho scaly eruptions gradu
