Hill. P. W. I WHAT AK I TO DO The symptoms of Biliousnew are unhappily but too well known. They differ in different individuals to some extent.

A Bilious man is seldom a breakfast eater. Too frequently, alaaj he has ah excellent appetite for liquids but none for solids of a morning. His tongue will hardly bear inspection at any time if it is not white and furred; it is rough, at all events; The digestive system is wholly out of order and Diarrhea or Constipation may be a symptom or the two may alternate. There are often Hemorrhoids or even loss of blood. There may be giddiness and ofteu headache and acidity or flatulence and tenderness in the pit of the stomach.

To correct all this if not effect a cure try Green's August Flower, it costs but a trifle and thousands attest its efficacy. Col. J. W. Feighan, of Emporia, will be urged for the position of Department Commander of the G.A.

Gibson's. llow Lincoln Comforted au OBleer. There was a free fight one night near the National Theater. An officer of the district who had most intimate relatione with the President attempted to stop it by commanding the peace. The crowd for a moment obeyed hut a bully, theii leader, pushed the officer hack and ordere him to leave on penalty of sound beating.

The ofiieer siid, "I arrest you," whereupon the bully aimed a terrific blow which was parried, an3 in turn the officer struck the bully under the chin with his fist, knocking him senseless. Blood issued from his mouth, nose, and ears. It was Lelieved thai the nun's neek wa3 broken. A surgeorj was called who pronounced the case critical one and the wounded man wa hurried away ou a litter to the hospital. There the physicians Ea'd there wai concussion of the brain and th man would die.

The officer was deeply grieved. His conscience smote him for as he believed, taken the life of a fellow-creature, and lie was inconsolable. Late that night he went to the Whit House and begged to see the President. Mr. Lincoln admitted him anil heard his story, which was manifestly truthful in all its details.

"I am -sorry," said Mr. Lincoln, "that you had to kill a mad, but thesa are times of war and a good many men def serve killing. This one, according to your story, got no more than he deserved. So give yoursei no uneasiness I will stand by yon. You go home nofi and get eome sleep.

But let me give you a little advice when1 ever you have occasion to strike a man, don't hit him ivith your fist. Strike him with a club, or a crowbar, or with something that won't kill."

There are splei did single buildings town hall, university, parliament houses, public houses, pub- lie offices, besides 'banks, exchanges, and, again, churches, etc There are superb shops, too, gorgeous as any in London or Paris. But side by side with them von see houses little better than theds. People have built as they could and as tlieir means allowed them, and they have been too busy to study appearances.

But rhey have boundless Wealth and as boundless ambition and self-confidence.

IT OUGHT TO BE IN TOUR TAXttT.

This February number is so full of good things that most people will read it through from beginning to end. The frontispiece is a life-like likeness of the poet, Whittier. The opening article is by Mrs.

Croly, the editor, ori Working Girls. The continued stories are "The representative from Raccoon," Battle for Birthright," and a new one by Edgar Fawcett, "Two Enemies." There" are several spirited sketches of real life, and a variety of quite meritorious poetry. "To day and To-morrow" is a bright resume of what is going on in the world. The fashion directories give the latest styles, amply illustrated. In the various' departments of matters whieh specially interest the ladies, this February number is as good as a cyclopaedia.

Women who want to be nse-' ful, and to make Lome cheerful and happy, are greatly helped by Godey's' Lady's Book. Write to the Croly Puplishing 1226 Arch Street," Philadelphia, and find out about it.
