that's the result you want
to reach. With Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets, you have it.
They cleanse and renovate the
whole system naturally. That
means that they do it thor
oughly, but mildly. They're
the smallest in size, but the
most effective sugar-coated,
easiest to take. Sick Head
ache. Bilious Headache. Con
stipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all derangements
of the Liver, Stomach .and
Bowels are prevented, relieved,
and cured. Purely vegetable,
perfectly harmless, and gently

As a Liver Pill, they've been
imitated, but never equaled.

"August

This is the query per

boy's lips. And he is
It For? no worse than the big
ger, older, balder-headed
boys. Life is an interrogation
point. " What is it for?" we con
tinually cry from the cradle to the
grave. So with this little introduc
tory sermon we turn and ask: "What
is August Flower for ?" As easily
answered as asked : It is for Dys
pepsia. It is a special remedy for
the Stomacn ana uver. XMommg
more than this ; but this brimful.
We believe August Flower cures
Dyspepsia. We know it will. We
have reasons for knowing it. Twenty
years ago it started in a small country
town. To-day it has an honored
place in every city and country store,
possesses one of the largest manu
facturing plants in the country and
sells everywhere. Why is this? The
reason is as simple as a child's
thought. It is honest, does one
thing, and does it right along it

Why Don't They Proposer
"Why don't the meu propose?' That
is the problem which is agitating large
numbers of young women.
"I don't know," replied one pretty
girl to whom 1 propounded the conun
drum. "Only they don't. Here I am in
uiy second yeiir in society and I haven't
had a single offer."
I wish to say that the young lady
whose remarks I urn quoting is not only
pretty, but she is also of good family, of
first class position, is highly educated
and accomplished, is positively known
to have brains and an amiable disposi
tion, and will ponscyi a considerable for
tune. Iu short she is a great catch.
"Not a single offer of marriage," she
continued. "Not even a single avowal
of love. I don't know what to make of
it, for I don't think I am wholly unat
tractive. I am not the only one. Of
course, some girls get miirried, but they
are very few compared to the vast num
ber of eligible young women in society.
What is the matter with the men? They
are perfectly willing to flirt all day long,
but none of them appears to want to go
any further. There is something wrong.
Is marriage, after all, a failure?"

Characteristic Even In Her Dreams.
A lady who is known to be au ex
tremist in many of her views gravely
told the following dream over the coffee
the other morning to the great amuse
ment of her husband aud some friends,
wbo declared it essentially feminine and
characteristic of her sex.
She dreamed that she had died, and
in the interval before the freed spirit
made its way heaveuward she was an
nnseen observer and listener to all that
took place in the room in which the
poor cluy she had so recently inhabited
lay. She was touched with the devotion
of her mother, who, like Mary of old,
was always first and lust beside the body,
soon to find sepulture, also intensely in
terested in the arguments fur or against
cremation (this having been her own
pet theory), which her friends held forth
in the presence of her disembodied spirit,
aud longing to depart with the celestial
throng awaiting her. yet mortified and
thrilled on the threshold of heaven by
the fact that, graven on her casket plate,
her age was given as forty-nine instead
of thirty-two. Utica IJerald.
Do Women or Fashions Changet
In an apothecary's window in New
York is a heap of the vinaigrettes that
were in use four or more years ago. Tbey
are of cut glass, from twelve to fourteen
inches long, an Inch thick, and of the
weight of a policeman's night stick.
They are eloquent of the eccentricities of
fashion, for whereas women paid many
dollars to get one only the other day, so
to speak, no lady would carry one the
length of an avenue block today for five
times ax much money. The same moral
is pointed by a picture that was famous
sixteen years ago. It is Arthur Lumley's
sketch of two rival schools meeting on

"We have ail seen the practices into which
nervous eople fall. There is the man who
cloars his throat or coughs, wben ho has never
the sign of a cold, or w ho yawns when ho hue
no reason whatever to foci laired. Others
will twitch their beard or mustache, pull ut
their clothing or buttons, or pick and bile at
their finger nails until tha blood runs. Then
there am other such familiar evidence of
embarrassment as the continual shifting of
the Kwitiun when in cinnny, and this, to
gether with a tendency to automatic and ab
sent minded actions w hen not dondeiit on
profound mental preoceuncy, may be
often taken as indicating the approach of
nervous prostration. Wheu one gets very
nervous, marked habils of irritation appear;
familiar aud naturally agreeable sounds

"In still graver states of nervous troubles
may be observed morbid fears, some of them
most wculmr. There are eople afflicted
with monophobia, or the fear or being alone,
which ia a most culiar eonditiou of tha
mind. I knew a lawyer who would never
dure to apaar in court for tbe purixwo of
pleading a cose when unacconiiauied by hi
wife or some other ineuiUr of the family.
Wben so supported he would argue well and
at length, but otherwise au iudetlnuble terror
of something that might bupjam he knew
Dot what would seize bim aud render him
powerless. Then there ure victims of claus
trophobia, or the fear of going through nar
row places, and I have known vople to be
lu mortal terror wheu proceeding along any
but the broadest thoroughfares, lest the houses
should close iu on them uud crush them. Au
throphobia and gynephobia, the one the fear
of crowds and of men, und thu other the fear
of women, are not uncommon. These and
similar troubles, ass anted with morbid
aouuds in the cars, are symptoms of w hut has
been termed American nervousness, or neu
rasthenia, it being llrst discovered by Amer
ican physicians. Again, wo have vrversion
of smell and taste, all local causes being
abseut; caae of eople v. ho smell smoke when
there is none at hand, and thu predilection of
school girls for chalk anil ground slate icnciis.
The liking for alcohol la often a matter of
the nerves and even acquired taste for
various articles of food and di ink way b
traced to the tamo cuuse,
"On of tbe saddest symptoms ot nervous
ness, and one which In many Instances murk
tbe last (tags of tbe aftliction, is the Indecis
ion of men previously remarkable for vigor
and the rapidity with which they grasaid
conclusion and acted on their convictions.
But perbai the moat characteristic of all
nervous trouble is the fear of iwrsonal con
tamination, which appears to have develoicd
moresiuoe tbe advancement of thebascilii
theory, and which so affect some persona
that they will not shake baud or otherwise
come into actual contact with their neigh
bors.' In connection with this lust a certain gen
tleman well known in HU Louis, but now
dead, may be recalled by many lu whom was
doveloped in a remarkable degree this feat
of contamination, lie wore gloves, and not
only would not shake hands, but bad thf
greatest aversion to touching any one sitting
next bim in a street cur. Many xople there
are wbo have someone nervous alllietiou that
never develop Into anything worse, and
whlcb ia merely a source of annoyance to the
afflicted. One gentleman found it Impossible
to sleep at times, and after chasing imaginary
sheep over lmagiiiury fence without avail,
bethought himself of tracing the figure
on the ball of bis thumb with the forefinger
of the same baud. This intricate process at
tained the deairud end, but unfortunately be
came such a matter of habit that it was con
tinued In waking hours, and when last heard
from tbe victim was unconsciously laboring
to lull himself asleep iu the day time.
These are but a few of tbe many tyie of
nervous men that every one encounters.
