This 13 the query per
What Is petually on your little
boy's lips. And he is
It For? no worse than the big
ger, older, balder-hejid-edboys.
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 serniomve turn and ask: "What
is August Flowkr for V' As easily
answered as asked : It is for Dys
pepsia. It is a special remedy for
the Stomach and Liver. Nothing
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
cures Dyspepsia. 0

In n Stirglcnl Operation.
Ono of tlio tnoat dolicato Burglcal op
nttioiis over performed in Sau Fran-
dseo was that to which A. Daehm.a
luitiont nt tlio City and County hospital,
was snbjetted recently. The operation
wuo rt-iuarknblo in that an endoscope, or
Email i loctric light, was used during the
process. This was thrust into tlio tho
racic cavity, nud by its illumination the
action of the heart and lungs was plain
ly visible. This is tho first caeo re
ported on the Pacific coast where the
electric endoscope was used in diflicult
mtrgery with beueficial results.
Baolaii was nfiiictcd with nu abscess,
which had formed in tho pleural cavity
tnd ut tacked tho loft lung. Tho opera
tion v.ms an exceedingly dangerous ono,
and in order not to shock tho patient no
mention of tho intention of the physi
cians was mado to him.
The sick man was quickly nntestho
tized nud tho inflated breast was exposed
fo view. A discoloration on tho left
side showed that tho trouble lay under
the tissue in that direction, and Dr. El
lin wood began operations at onco by
making two deep incisions crosswise,
from which tho blood spurted in Htrcams.
Soveral of tho larger blood vessels were
necessarily cut, but these were quickly
ligatured, with Dr. Stillmnn's assistance.
Tho flaps of flesh wero laid to ono side,
exposing the third rib to view. This
rib was resected for three inches, and
when it was cut away a dark and bloody
opening was revealed, through which
tho thoracic cavity and tho space be
tween tho lungs could bo seen. Dr.
Hirschfelder inserted tlio endoscope
through tho opening in Baehiu'n breast
and tho light was turned on, illuminat
ting tho interior of tho cavity with re
markablo distinctness.
Tho heart worked slowly, owing to tho
effect of other. Tho aorta dilated and
fell with every heart beat. Tho lung
was also plainly visible. During tho ono
hour and a half consumed in making
tho operation tho action of tho heat t was
distinctly visible, and tho unusual sight
was tho subject of much comment upon
tho part of tho operators and spectators.
When tho process was completed and
overy vestige of pus removed, tho endo
scope was withdrawn and tho opening
in Baohm's breast closed. The opera
tion was a highly successful ono in evory
particular, and Baehm's condition shows
that ho ia gaining strength. Electric

To an American tho sight of men kiss
ing each othor is an odd ono, yet tho
prnctico is common among most of the
pcoplo of continental Europe. Captain
Sargent, of tho steamship Indiana, re
cently went to Libau, in Russia, with
his ship laden with flour for famine suf
ferers. Of courso tho Russians wero
very gratoful for tho food given by
Americans to their countrymen, and
thtiy wished to show their appreciation.
When Captain Sargent returned homo
from his trip ho was nccosted by a ro
portor. "What has becoruo of your beard, cap
tain?" for a long growth of brown whis
kers adorned his chin whon ho sailed.
"Well, now, beliovo mo or not, but 1
havo not put a pair of scissors to that
beard sinco I loft. What has happened
to it? Why, it was kissed away. Talk
about your gratitudo tho Russians aro
tho pooplo for showing it, 1 tell you!
During tho four days 1 was in Libau 1
was huggod, embraced and kissed until
my bentd actually fell away.
"Why, tho Russians would coma up
to mo and I would put out my hand to
shako them, but no, siroo that wasn't
good enough for them. Plumb into my
arms they would como, thoir arms
would go around my neck, and for tho
noxt two minutes there w.ts n catch-as-catch-can
kissing match." Harper's
Young Peoplo.
Incident at n Illsiinp's Consecration.
A touching incident marked the con
secration of Bishop riorstnianuin Phila
delphia. At tho closo of his Bormon
Archbishop Ryan addressed a fow words
personally to the bishop-olect. "May
you bo over, as you havo been in tho
past, tho sontinol of tho sanctuary," ho
said. "You aro soon to givo us all your
blossing, but first of all lot tho first
blessiug of your episcopacy bo be.stowod
upon your mother, who ia present Jioro
to-day, nnd is justly proud of her son."
Evory moinbor of tho vast congrega
tion gazed expectantly at Bishop lloret
mann, who, after tho miter had boon
placed upon his head, passed down from
tho altar and paused in tho center aisle
boforo tho first pow. A tall, gray hairod
woman roso to rocoivo his first blossing.
Tho blossing douo, sho throw her arms
impulsively about his neck and kissed
him. Tho iucidout caused a great sen
sation in tho immense cathedral. Ex

"It is wonderful how a limn will ro
hiember liitlo things in timo f thinner
nnd how a llaph of memory often num
u man's life," said T. E. Whiteaides tho
other day to a reporter. -Mr. Whito
Bldes is an engineer on tho Panhandle
nnd was in charo on the day of tho
fatal i.-ock in tho cut near Bnrgetts
town some timo ago. Ho gives the fol
lowing graphic description of tho wreck,
nnd how ho nnd his fireman wero saved
from death:
"Wo wore going nttho rate of twenty
five miles an hour, and just ns wo en
tored the cut I saw the runaway cars
coming toward us. To shut off steam
anil whistle down brakes was tho work
of a momont. 1 was off my seat and on
iho step tho next second. All this timo
my mind was nt work. To jump meant
death, for tho sidosof the outwore steep
nud to jump against it would only result
in lx'iug thrown under tho train. 1 re
momborcd n plight depression about tho
center of the cut, which if we reached
before wo struck tho oncoming cars wo
might jump and be huvlhI. it was the
last desperate chance, for to rido into
tho wreck meant sure death. I was on
the enginu step nnd my fireman on tho
tender. Wo had not exchanged a word.
Wo did not have timo, for it was all over
iu a fow seconds.
"Tho depression was reached and wo
both jumped together and landed in the
hollow, plowing up tho ground with our
noses. Tho noxt instant the crash came.
1 got up and walked about ton feot, but
had to givo up. The jar was too much
for mo. 1 cscapod with badly sprained
ankles and bruises, while tho firoman
had nn arm broken." Said ho in con
elusien: "1 havo been on the road for
eleven years aud that was my first so
rious wreck. I had often noticod that
little hollow in passing nnd thought it
might como iu handy someday." Pitts

A "Corridor" Train in Kugland.
Tho Great Western Railway company
has now a new train running between
London and Birkenhead, which is called
tho corridor train. Its distinguishing
featuro is a corridor along tho side, run
ning tho whole length of tho train (240
foot), with flexible gangway connection
between the carriages. As the train is
designed for long distanco journeys,
with fow stoppages, toilet rooms aro
provided for all classes of passengers.
In each class of carriago thero is a largo
smoking saloon provided, and special
compartments are set apart for ladies
adjoining the ladies' toilet rooms. Tho
train is warmed throughout by steam
from tho locomotive, the supply of which
can be regulated by the guard.
To call tho guard in caso of emergen
cy, nn electric bell is fitted iu tho brake
van, which may bo rung by pressing an
ordiuary push button in each compart
ment throughout the train. In addition
thero is tho cord outside tho carriage,
which on being pulled stops the train
almost instantaneously. Tho train,
which has been dpsigned by Air. Dean,
tho chief engineer at Swindon, 'pos

TJin M-vlarn Illgtnvarnian Consider
Til' in Too Antiquated for Use.
"You li"ar n great deal about
aanilraf'.'jiig" just now," eaid a Cen
tral rtti.' detective "Tho 6aud
bag is no ! .ngor used by a profes
sional criminal; there avo bettor
ways of robbing a man than by
knocldng him ovor tho head with a
weapon which, if found on tho pos
Bessor, would mako it protty bard
for him to oxcapo tho rough hand of
tho law.
"Tho sandbag, anyhow, is an an
ciont weapon. If tho pounding into
insensibility of a victim is desired a
'billy' is far handior than a sandbag.
Nowadays tho crooks carry as few
evidences of their calling as possible.
A vnst number of them go entirely
unarmed. As for tho highwaymen,
many of them havo neither rovolvei
nor 'billy' when pursuing their pecul
iar business.
"Tho old, old system of garroting
is tlio favorite method in vogue, and
this is invested with certain modern
details. Tlio victim, instead of being
pounded into insensibility and hurt
so as to bo iKjrmanently disabled, is
left with a temporary feeling of dis
tress, wliilo tho safety of the high
waymen is its nasured 03 it was under
tho old plan. Tho modern highway
men travel in twos, threes or foura.
Usually thoy go hi pairs. It is lato
at night, we'll say. A streot is al
most deserted. A pedestrian hurric3
along. Ho sees ahead of him two
men, walking slowly, almost side by
side.
"As tho fellow in a hurry nears
them they separate to let him pahs
between. When you ceo this movo
made you can gamble tho fellows aro
highwaymen. As our friend passes
between them the man nearest him
throws an aim deftly under his chin,
and tho grip on his throat provents
any outcry. Tho other fellow
punches him in tho bread basket.
You know how a man feels whon
ho's hit in tho stomach. In a minute
thoy havo rifled his pockets, havo
disappeared, and tho victim, dazed
and distressed, is lying on tho ground
recovering from the shock.
"With an occasional variation to
suit circumstances tins is tho favorite
method of tho highwaymen. A fow
try tho plan of holding a revolver
under a man's nose. Some still use
tho 'billy,' sneaking up to their vic
tim from behind. But thoy aro
bunglers. If two men aro walking
ahead of you, or are coming toward
you, and separate to let you pass be
tween them, don't pass. Take tho
middle of tho street and bo prepared
to run.
"When highwaymen travel in
fours they work this way : The quar
tet stands at a corner waiting for a
victim. They see him in tho distanco
approaching. Two of tlio crooks
walk ahead. Tho pedestrian, uncon
scious of danger, walks after them.
Behind him fall in thoother two rob
bers. Tho man is surrounded two
crooks half a block ahead of him, two
half a bloek behind. This procession
is kept up till a favorable spot is
reached. The men ahead slacken
their pace. Tho men lxjhind hasten.
Tho victim is hemmed in. Tlio
chances aro that ho will meet with
violence, for these fellows aro des
perate. They use a revolver or 'billy
and drag their victim into an alloy if
ono ia near. It is a bad trap to fall
into.
"A man who is held up generally
doesn't caro about tho valuables he
loses so much ns about tho slugging.
Some lughwaymon aro unnecessarily
brutal; the expeit resorts to no need
less violeiico." Chicago Tribuno.

Tlie Oitde Were Apnlnht Illin.
Mr. Jonathan Stoybolt had uo per
sonal ohjectiona to youngRudolph
Gignhy, who was courting his daugh
ter Clara, but ho did wish that Mr.
Gitrebv would go homo a littlo ear-
lior. Winding tho clock, that timo J
Honored n.ni to iovei"s, nau no rui-ii
upon him, but Mr. Staybolt thought
that a sudden great uproar in tho
houso mirht prove sufficiently dis
turbing to mako him think that it
was about tyr 10 to go. His plan was
to roll tho waahboilcr down tho
back staii-s. Mrs. Staybolt did not
oator vory hsartily into that plot,
but sho loL him havo the boiler.
Ho carried it up stairs early in tho
ovening, and at 11 o'clock ho started
it. It made as much noise as though
it had boon a railroad through tho
house. Mi Staybolt expected in tho
mtciiso stillness that followed to
hear Mr. GiKsby step out into the
hall for his hat and overcoat, but in
stead of that ho heard him say to
Clara: "Goodness I How careless it
was to leave that boiler whero it
would fall liko that. It's almost

Electrifying Seeds.
Dr. Leicester, of Bristol, England,
has been studying tho growth of
seeds in earth artificially electrified.
A box threo feot long by nearly threo
wide was filled with choico soil. At
ono end a zinc plate and nt the other
end a coppor ono wero placed, and
wero united outsido by a coppor
wiro. They woro about ono foot
square By tho chemical action on
tho zinc plate, a current passed
through tho earth toward tho copper
plate, and returning by tho coppor
wire mado a circuit. The box was
thu3 a very simple cell or battery.
Seeds were sown in tho soil be
tween tho plates, and thoir growth
was much moro rapid than that of
similar seeds planted in a similar
box, but ono without tho metal
plates.
Similar experiments mado with
glass tanks filled with soil show sim
ilar results. Hempseed,"sown in an
electrified glass tank, was fully an
inch high beforo any sprouta could
bo seen in unelectriiied earth. It
was found, too, that if tho doctor
watered tho soil with a littlo very
dilute acetic acid tho growth was
much quicker in tho electrified soil.

A Unique Appeal for Mercy.
Ex-Governor Taylor tells a story
of how ho saw a man como before
tho governor of a state with a rude
fiddlo a poor convict had fashioned
with his pocketknifo and sent to tho
custodian of the pardoning power as
his only appeal for mercy. Christ
mas evo was approaching, and away
up in tho mountains stood a little
cabin. Tho fire on tho hearth was
almost gone. Tho little children,
ragged and unfed, clung about a
weeping and disconsolate mother,
and tho day which should bring
peaco and joy to all promised only
sorrow and wretchedness.
Tho governor received tho simple,
rough fiddle, which was a moro elo
quent plea in its maker's behalf than
any human tonguo could have mado.
Tho records wero looked up, and on
Christinas day thero was rejoicing in
a littlo homo ovor a husband and
father restored to his family. Louis
ville Courier-Journal.
Celluloid.
Culluloid, tho composition of which
was long kept secret, has for some
years been largely employed for im
itating articles mado of horn, shoU,
ivory and oven marble. It has the
imnionso advantage that it can bo
wolded, melted, molded and shaped
without difficulty, and it is for this
reason now largely employed for tho
manufacture of walking stick han
dles, umbrella handles, piano keys,
etc. It has also been used for mak
nig rulors, set squares and other sim
ilar instruments of precision, for it
has been shown that tho expansion
of this substance is much moro regu
lar and uniform than that, of wood,
and that errors previously unavoida
ble can bo eliminated by its use.
This industrial product, now indis
pensable for a number of articles of
everyday use, is simply mado up of
nitro-cellulose, camphor and water.

Old Comical Pictures.
Thoro is in the Musoum of Turin,
Italy, a papyrus roll which displays
a whole series of comical scenes. In
tho first placo, a lion, a crocodilo and
an apo aro giving a vocal and instru
mental concert. Next comes an ass,
dressed, armed and sceptered like n
Pharaoh. With majestic swagger
ho receives the gifts presented to him
by a cat of high degree, to whom a
bull acts as proud conductor. A lion
and gazelle aro playing at checkers,
a hippopotamus is perched in a high
treo and a horse has climbed into the
treo and is trying to dislodge him.
