"August Flower" There is a gentle Dyspepsia, man nt Malucn-on- tiie-IItidson, N. YM amcd Captain A. G. Pareis, who lias written us a letter in which it is evident that he has made up his mind concerning some things, and this is what he says: ' I have Used your preparation called August Flower in my family for seven or eight years. It is con stantly in my house, and we consider it the best remedy for Indigestion, and Constipation we IndigOBtlon. have ever used or known. My wife is troubled with Dyspepsia, and at times suffers very much after eating. The August Flower, however, re lieves the difficulty. My wife fre quently says to me when I am going to town, 'We are out Constipation of August Flower, and I think you had better get another bottle.' I am also troubled with Indigestion, and when ever I am, I take one or two tea spoonfuls before eating, for a day or two, and all troublejs removed.'' A Gnmo of Doll.

Curtlss In New York World HOW HE WON HER. Wo wcro Rnthorod around a blitz ing grnto flro ono wiuter'B night in tho cozy apartinoutB of a bachelor friend on Church street Outeido it waa bitter cold, and tho blustering wind woh playing u doloful dirgo on tho caves of tho adjoining buildinga Insido all wa bright and duttrful. Wo had all boon bojii together, and hod guthcrod in ono of our occasional reunions to smoko our pij)e8 and talk of old school days, of tho gray haired old Bchoolmantor who had long ago been laid to rent in tho old city come tery. Wo talked of tho sweeth carta of boyhood days of thoso who had married, and of thoso who, like us. bad preferred to fight. lifo's buttles ulono. Now and then tho name of some old schoolmate who, in tho busy cares of life, had almost boon forgot ten. would bo mentioned. As Ids uamo was spoken it would recall, IKirhups, some prank ho had played ou tho stern faced but kindly old schoolmaster. Ho was ulwent now, but wo could, in momory, still see bis happy, lxyisu face and mis ehlovous. laughing oyes and hear hu joyous laughter. Where was the light hearted boy wo knew and loved so well? None could toll. Perhaps ho was dead; or. maybo, ho was a wanderer on tho faco of Uio eartb this cold and cheerless night, far away from homo and friends. Wo had that is, with ono excep tion longsluco passed that ago when wo should bo classed as young inon in the strictest moaning of tho word yeung: yot at tho same timo wo could hardly havobeon reckoned old. Tho fact is, wo woro nothing more nor loss than bacholora old or young, as you pleaso. Tho excep tion that I hnvo mentioned -not that bo was any older or younger than tho rest of us, for wo woro nil near tho sumo ago but the reason 1 do nominate him an exception Is that ho was a married man. Ho had sovoral yoaitt before forsaken us aud led to tho altar a charming gin wnoso gnw of tntud woro as rare as her beauty was jMirfoct. Thoy huvo a pleasant homo out in tho West end and two- lovely chil dren to mako comploto their happi ness. 1 said ho had forsaken us. To a certain extant ho had, but not on- tlroly, for ho would occasionally drop in to have a chat with his old com jmnlons. Hois tho happiest man 1 over saw, antl would uovor leave ns without delivering a lecture on ttio satisfaction and coutoutmont of mar vied lifo, and advising lis to forsako tho paths of slnglo blessedness, marry sorao girl and sottlo down. Wo know his rulvico was sound and good, but Bomohow wo proforrod to drift aloug in tho old, easy way. wo unti not dreamed time there was n romance connected with our friend's marriage and wo would doubtless havo forovor remained In ignoranco had ho not clioson to tell tho story himself. On tho uight of which 1 writo our mar ried friond, who had Iwen o silent liatonor, suddenly Hoko up "Boys, did 1 overtoil you tho wtory of how I won my wifol" Nouo of us hud ovor hoard it. "If you will havo tho pationco to hear mo out." ho continued, "I will toll vou of a Httlo romanoo, tho equal of which ono rarely moots with oven hi novels. To begin with, 1 wou ray wlfo by moans of n gumo of cards. Now, do not look surprised- 1 did not literally win hor at curds. 1 -but wait until you have heard tho story I waa about twenty-sLx years old ot tho timo my story begins, and, as you aro all aware, was passlouutoly fond of gaming at that timo. It waa in Uio spriug and tho races woro in full blast, which or course brought great crowds of HiKirtinnr mou to tho city. I waa invited to join a number of gentlemen in a gamo of draw poker Tho hoi's all had plenty of money, and Uio gamo wis a stiff ono from tho start "Luck favored mo and I ticgnn to win from tho moment I took a seat at Uio table, and couthuied to win uutil I quit tho game, when I found myself nearly $800 richer than when 1 commenced, "To iny left sat a young mnu who, although intensely palo, was ono of tho hanilaomoHt men l nna over soon. aud very prominent. His handrf wore small andaatlolhtttely shaped almost as thoso of n woman. Ho was neatly dressed, and it required but one glance to boo that ln was a thorough gentleman. He was very young, his faco waa smooth, and I judged that ho had scarcely pawied his tweuty first year. "Misfortune seemed to have soloct cd tho boy as its vitthn. He had been as unlucky us 1 had 1kxii for tuuute. Every baud ho played some ono would have tsmls just a little larger. Ho had lost ovor a thousand dollars, and though ho did not com plain and curso. an men usually do when they have a run of hard luck, I could sco that ho wan greatly trou bled and becoming moro desperate each moment Finally about mid night, Bomo one opened a jackpot Two or throe of us staid, nnd when ft got round to tho young fellow to my loft ho carefully examined his cards and then raibed tho pot All dropped out but myself. Having a pair of kings I concluded to stand tho raiso. I called for threo cards and tho young fellow Htood pat It was his first bet and ho shoved out quite n stack of blues. "After looking at my hand to see what I had caught in tho draw, 1 haw his bet and 'topped' him. He did not hesitate a moment, but called. I spread outrn the tablo a full hand three kings and a pair of deuces whilo ho showed down three jacks and a pair of fours. Ho gaz-ed at my hand in a bewildered, dazed manner fully two minutes, then quick as a flash he drew from his breast a re volver and placed it to his head. I saw tho movement, quick a it was. and wrenched tho pistol fiom his grasp boforo ho could commit the desperato act "I arose from tho table, had my chips cashed and was preparing to leavo tho room when my eyes rented on tho boy. His head wax resting on tho tablo and ho was muttering to himself, 'Ruined I Ruined I My God, I am ruined I' 1 saw that it would never do to leavo tho poor boy in that condition, so utopping to his sido 1 gently laid my hand on his bowed head and asked him to follow mo. I shall never forgot the look of misery and despair 1 saw in his faco as ho looked up. 'Come, go with me.' I said, and ho followed mo as a child would havo dono, without a word. When wo reached tho street I asked him to take a walk with mo, tolling him I wished to havo a talk with him. "Wo walked around through tho square and out on tho old bridgo. All was quiet there, and but for ourselves tho placo was deserted. 'Havo you any raonoy?' 1 asked the boy. 'Not a cont on earth, sir. I am ruined?' ho answered. 'Take this, then,' I said, drawing from my pocket $200. 'But boforo I lot you havo it you must promiso mo on your honor as a gentleman- for 1 soo that you are ono that you will uovor again enter a gambling house or play a gamo of cards for money, and tlxat you will leavo tho city this morning. You can repay too money some uay u you becomo able; if not, it will bo all right Is it agreed?' "Ho grasped my hand, and with tho team flowing down his clieoks said i 'God bless you, sir. You havo saved mo, anil I shall remomlier you as long us lifo lasts.' "There on tho quiet, deserted bridgo in that early morning hour tho boy told me Ins story. Ho bad loft a happy, comfortable homo up in tho bluo grass region of Kentucky to follow tho checkered lifo of a gam blor. Ho had imbibed the lovo of gambling whilo at school, and it had grown on him until it became a ml lug passion. It had taken such com ploto possession of him that in a mo ment, blinded with passion and ob livious to tho teachings of his child hood, ho had forged his father's namo for several thousand dollars. His fathor, too proud to proclaim to tho world Unit his son was so de based, paid tho chock aud lot tho mattor drop. The boy hud followed Uio races all over the country, souio times winning, but tuoronften losing, and now ho had lost his Inst cent Ho would now go homo, ask his faUior's forgivenohs and Ixi a man onco moro. "All this ho told mo that night, nnd when ho had concluded Uio gray streaks in tho east proclaimed that anothor day was dawning. Now and thou a routo boy with his amis full of newspapers would hurry iwst us, Uio collar of his jacket turned up and his cap pulled down over his ears to protect him from Uio crisp morning air. Heavily loaded market wagons rumbled across tho bridgo, aud in Uio dlstanco tho shrill notes of a wakeful chanUcloor could bo hoard heralding tho uowa to mnu thnt it waa timo to prepare for work. "Wo loft Uio bridgo and wont to gether to a rostnunmt After wo had eatou breakfast I accompanied tho young follow to tho depot, saw him on tho train with a ticket in his ixxJfet for homo and with a warm linudshako wo jwrtod -ho Iwck to his homo to ask his father's forgiveness, and I back to my old haunts. No I That bcouo hi the gambling house of Uio jmiIo faced boy with u pistol at his head had cured mo of my passion. I aworo then thtit I would never touch auother canl for mouey, and I havo kept my word. "It was moro than n year after I lotter with the postmark of a little town In Kentucky on the envelope t opened it and read tho follwmg "'My Deak Frienu -Inclosxl you will find u check for tho ?200 you so goneroualj let me havo.

" 'My friend, I want you to como up and sp'md tho hunting season with mo. I can assure tho best of sport and will tnko no oxruse.' "Having a Httlo spare timo on my hand. just at that timo I determined to pay my frif nd a visit I arrived at Uio Httlo station on a cool bracing evening in the latter part of October. I was met as 1 alighted from Uio cars by my young friend and I could not havo been more cordially i-eccived had I been a long absent brother. When wo reached hw home I waa ushered into a cozy Hitting room, which wan made moro cheerful by tho crackling flames of a huge liick ory tire in an old fashioned fireplace. "ILu father, a perfect typ of tbo old time Kentucky gentleman, mot U3 at the door and bade mo welcome. To tho left of the fireplace, in an easy armchair, sat a gray haiix t, sweet faced old lady quiotiy lmltting. Sho remained sitting as I entered and 1 saw at a glauce that sho was an in valid. She received me with a sweet, motherly smile, and trusted my visit would be a pleasant one. I heard somo one enter the room just then, and looking around, my eyo tested on a slender, girlish figure. "It was my young friond 's sistor, and there standing in the middle of tho room 1 saw my wifo for tho first time. I thought sho was tho lovo licit girl my oyes had ever beheld, with her graceful figuro and rich brown hair aud big bluo innocent oyes. and 1 thoro and then fell head over heels in lovo with her. Her mother being an invalid, tho girl luul assumed Uio duties of house keeper, and had entered tho room to announco that mipper was ready. Tho family did all in their power to mako mo feel at homo, and after tho evening meal was over I folt as if I had known them all my lifo. "Next morning tho son took mo ovor tho plantation. It waa a typical old southern home. Tho house was in Uio center of a largo lawm carpeted with bluo grass and tnodo bright with brilliant colored lato fall flow ers, and magnificent forest trees dot tod tho placo hero and thoro. Tho house itself was largo and roomy, with numerous broad and inviting galleries. I was Bhown tho well kopt paddocks aud given a look at tho rare specimona of thoroughbred hordes, descendants of tho equino woudors that havo made Kentucky's uamo famous tho world ovor. Then wo wont out into tho pastures nnd instiectod tho hord of fat, sleek Jer soys It was a magnificou t old placo, and I wondered as I gazed at its beauties bow ovon tho passion for gambling could havo induced tho boy to loavo such a homo. "I remained with my friends al most a mouth and was always treat- I od 'as ono of Uio family. In fact, tho father could not havo treated mo Kinder tiau i ooen uri own sou. nis I boy hod doubtless told him of what I i had dono for him, and the old gontio- ; man could not do too much to show his gratitude. "Tho daughter of tho family and myself were thrown much together, and loforo I was ready to leave I had told hor of my lovo and tiho had promised to bo my wifo. I lod hor blushing to hor faUior and mother, and Uioy with smiles of approval cravo us thoir blessing, wo wore married tho noxt fall. Now you can understand how a gumo of cards led to my winning a wifo. "My wifo and I and, of courso, tho children always bpond October and November at tho old homo. Tho old peoplo aro dead, but my broUier-in-law nover fails to give us a royal welcome Ho, too, has married, and thoro is not a happior man in Uio commonweal w ; auu why shouldn't ho bo happy, for ho has a charming, loving wifo, threo bright, beautiful children und ono of tho finest stock farms m Kentucky, vhat moro need a man want?"
