August Weather.
The average man is inclined to regard

have ever had, but the monthly sum
mary issued by Observer Shilling of tho

as warm as last month, the,
average for August in each of the three
years being sevonty-seven degrees. On
tho 27th of last month the absolute
maximum for August was reached
when tho temperature registered 103.
The rainfall last month was ninety
eight one-hundredths of an inch, which
Is the lightest precipitation wo have
had in any August sinco 1894, when
the fall was but seventeen one-hundredths
of an inch. There have been five
Augusts sinco 1875 when the rainfall
wns less than last month. The average
for tho month is 2.4G inches. Had we

Diarrhoea Quickly Cured.
"I was taken with diarrhoea and Mr.
Yorks, the merchant here, persuaded

After taking one dose of it I was cured.
It also cured others that I gave it to,"
writes M. E. Gebhart, Oriole, Pa.
That is not at all unusual. An ordinary
