"What is August Flower for?"
As easily unr.wertd as asked. It is
for Dyspepsia. It is a spteial rem
edy for the Stomach and Liver.
Nothing more than this. We believe
August Flower cures Dyspepsia.
We know it will. We have reasons
for knowing it. To-day it has an
honored pluce in every town and
country store, possesses one of the
largest manufacturing plants in the
country, nr.d Fells everywhere. The
reason is simple. It does one thing,

Hi reiort that the ship Cabo Marhiracc
was blown to atom by a huge quantity ol
dynamite on board, by which hundreds ol
people were killed and wounded, and tht
greater part of the town dot roved.
The vessel was discharging 2,000 ton ol
Iron, many barrels of petroleum and flont
ard several wine casks. The captain hd
declared only 20 cases of dynamite. Other
wise lie would not have been allowed to
dock.
The fire started at 3 o'clock Friday after
noon in the coal bunkers. The custom of
ficers and police hastened to lemove the 20
cscs of dynamite which soon were landed
at a fe distance from the vessel. A In
was then chartered to tow the C'aho Machi-
caco seaward. Meantime desperate efforts
had been made to quench the flames. The
captain and crew of the steamer Alfonso
XII. boarded the burning vessel to help
light the flame. They worked for an hour
and a half without success. At the end ol
that time the fire reached the petroleum.
Then came a aerie of awful explosion as
the flame went from barrel lo barrel of the
oil, until they reached the contraband dy
namite. The tug bad Just been morecl

curiosity or to help extinguish the lire.
