The liver is the imperial organ of the whole human system, as it controls the life, health and happiness of man. When It 1s disturbed in its proper action, all kinds of ailments are the natural result. The di-

tion of food, the movements of the heart and blood, the action of the brain and ner- vous system, are all immediately connected with the workings of the liver. It has been successfully proved that Green’s August Flower is unequalled in curing all persons afflicted with «lyspepsia or liver complaint, and all the numerous symptoms that result from An unhealthy condition of the liver and.stomach.

Dr. De Wolf Hangs Himself.

: A dispatch from Kentville, N. S., to the St. John Sun, says that Dr. DeWolfe. whe has been committed to Kentville jail for the murder of Bessie Harris at Wolfvill hanged himself in his cell on Thursday afternoon. It appears that he got hold of an axe handle and putting it across the stove pipe hole in the roof, he fastened a sheet to itand then around his neck, and kicking away the chair on which he was standing he launched himself into eternity, a _——........

A Marvellous Invention.

coming to

In these days of gloomy reports from the manufacturing centres of the Mother Coun- try, it is refreshing to read the following, which is a Washington, U. 8., despatch, re- ceived this morning : ‘‘ The United States Consul at Leeds, Eng., gives enceuraging reports of the revival of trade and manu- facturers in that district ; the woollen trade especially thriving. Customers from France and Austria are beginning to appear in un- wonted numbers. In the flax trade there is a marked improvement; flax machinery in considerable quantities is being imported from the United States. The coal trade continues depressed, the miners working only three days a week.

**The Consul at Leith, Scotland, shows the agricultural interest of Scotland slowly adapting itself te the present condition of things. Rents of farms have been re- duced at least 4 per cent. Many cases of sequestration have occurred. The imper- tation of catile, sheep, &c., from America, increased at a remarkable rate last year.”
