The symptoms of billiousrness are too
well known. They differ in different in-
dividuals to some extent. A Billious
wan is seldom a breakfast eater, Too
frequently, alas, he has an excellent a
petite for liquids but not for solids of &
morning. His tongue will hardly bear
imepection at any time; if it is not white
and furred, it is rough at all events.
The digestive system is wholly ont of
order and Diarrhea or Constipation mav
be # symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often Hermorrhi or even
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache acidity or flatu-
lence and tenderness in the pit of the
gtomiache. To correct all this if not ef
fect a cure try Green's August Flower, ie
costs but a trifle and thousands attest tot
efficacy.

George Bugel, and Louis Lingp, who
cheatsd the gallows by committing suicide
the day before-—were placed in their final

brought about by Mrs. Parsons, the dusky

A passage was made and Mrs. Parsons,
sccompanied by Mr. and Mrs. William
Holmes, came forward. The nearest coffin
to her was that of August Sples. Her bus-
band’s was the second from this. Mrs.
Parson's eyes seemed to pick out the casket
in which she was interested. At the mo-
nent her gaze caught it she gave voice to a
wall which startled the crowd. Captain
Black paused in his speech, the throng was
startled, then came a scream from Mrs,
Parsons which reached to the outer circles
of the erowd. Thrice she strove to speak,
but the words refused to come out, and she
sank fainting into the arms of her friends.
