"What is August Flower for ?"
As easily answered as asked. It is
for Dyspepsia. It is a special 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 place in every town and
country store, possesses one of the
largest manufacturing plants in the
country, and sells everywhere. The
reason is simple. It does one tiling,
and does it right. It cures dyspepsia®

Submarine Photography.
A Rliort time ago Louis Boutai |
brought hiiUKelf to the knowledge ol
scientific naturalists by undertaking
an exploring tour of the Red Sea.
from which he brought back a strang
and curious collection of fish and shells,
embracing several specimens entirely
unknown. Continuing his researches
on the coast of France, Mr. Boutan as
sumed a diver's costume in order tc
observe at the bottom of the sea th<
metamorphoses of certain mollusksim
possible to cultivate in aquaria. H<
was struck with the wonderful l>eaut>
of submarine landscapes, and resolved
to photograph what he could, since
simple description would savor toe
I much of an over vivid imagination. Al
first he worked in shallow water with
a water tight apparatus, and the clear
| ness of the water allowed him suffi
cient light to sensitize the plates. Bui
proportionally as the water deepened
clearness diminished, and the motioD
of the waves clouded his proofs. Then
the young scientist conceived the idea
of utilizing magDesium in an appa
ratus of his own invention. This ap
paratus consists essentially in a barre.
filled with oxygen and surmounted by
a glass bell containing an alcohol lamp.
On the flame of the lamp, by mean* ol
a mechanical contrivance, powdered
magnesium is thrown, flaring as often
as a view is taken. The barrel b
pierced with holes on the lower side
in such manner that as the oxygen di
minishesthe sea water enters, so pre
: serving the equilibrium between ox
I terual and internal pressure. By tht
aid of thin machine he has already
j made great progress in a direction new
I to naturalists, and one likely to con
; fer permanent benefits in the result*
obtained by their science. —Frank Les

Net as Wicked as Fainted.

"There are over 350 churches in this
city, from the pulpits of which ring out
700 warnings eaoh Sabbath to those
who have ears to hear. These churches
have a seating capacity of 250,000.
In addition to this three of the theaters
and one large hall and several smaller
ones are utilized on Sunday morning
for religious purposes. Supposing that
each of these churches are but half
filled at each service, that would pos
sibly be a fair average for this or any
other city, would give an attendance
of 125,000 for eaoh service, two services
each Sunday (the Roman Catholic and
Episcopal churches have more,) will
show an attendance of 300,000. Add
to the 8,000 or 10,000 who attend the
several services in the aforesaid thea
ters and halls will bring the total up
to considerably over 800,000 churcn
attendants each Sunday in Chicago
out of a population of 800,000. Then
take into consideration the many Sun
day-schools, some of them having an
average attendanoe of 4,000 and 6,000.
Ho, notwithstanding all that might be
said about the wickedness of Chicago,
she will compare favorably with like
cities even in Puritan Canada."
A Habit Died Dot,
The habit of inhaling snuff was so
prevalent fifty years ago, not only with
gentlemen but with many elderly
ladies, that there were few counting
rooms or offices that did not have a
huge box supplied with the favorite
maecaboy snuff and the sweet smelling
bean on the desk, counter or bracket
specially arranged for it, and callers
would inhale a pinch or two, then draw
forth a huge yard square red silk
handkerchief, and there would be a
resounding blast. Fortunately, no
American then wore a mustache. Men
did not carry white linen handker
chiefs, but sometimes used white silk
ones in those days. As bad personal
habits usually increase, it's a marvel
that this one died out some years ago.

Guilds in China.
Speaking of employer's unions, all
classes of Chinese men have their guilds
and these are almost as old as the coun
! trv. One of the finest Club Houses of
, Cliina is that ©f the Canton merchants
Df Foo Chow. It is made up of a great
number of finely finished rooms ele
gantly furnished in Chinese fashiou
and located in the best part of the city.
Here the merchants come to drink tea
and to chat. They have a temple ami
a theater connected with it, and the
club consists of five hundred members.
I visited at Shanghai some of the finest
specimens of Chinese architecture I
have seen. They were guild halls bc
, longing to tea and rice merchants, and
; they had wonderful gardens of caves
i and rocks built up in the busiest part
: of the city. These guilds regulate the
. commerce of China. They fill the rate
of interst, the time on which goods may
I be sold, the weights and the standards
lof goods. A member using different
j scales than the one prescribed is fined,
! and a man acting contrary to the guild
can, in many instances, not go on wi I I
his business. One of the druggists' ,
guilds has just adopted some new rules
which lie before me. These prescribe
that accounts shall be settled three |
times every year, and that a discount !
of 5 per cent, may ho allowed on cash
transactions. No member in the guild j
shall be permitted to trade with the '
| others while he is in debt to a member
! of the guild, and any member who vio
j lates these laws shall pay for two thea
i ter plays for the guild, and for the
drinks and a feast for twenty members.
! Home of these guilds prescribe that
promissory notes shall bo dated on the
day of sale, and all of them fix the
rules of giving credit. The bankers'
guild fix all matters relating to inter
est, and these different organizations
make the dealings of foreigners with
the Chinese more safe than such deal
ings would be in other countries, 'i lis
Chinamen respects his contract, and if
i he does not his guild makes him.—
