An Interesting Explanation of the Cat
endar Arrangement.
The coming year 1b one in which
uncertainty might arise as to the date
of Easter, if the Prayer Book rule
were strictly followed. Dr. Downing,
F. R. S., of the National Almanac of
fice, states that inquiries have been
address to him on the subject, says
London Nature. According to the
Prayer Book, Easter day (on which
all other movable feasts and holy
days depend) “Is always the first Sun
day after the full moon, which hap
pens upon or next after the 21st day
of March.”
In 1905 the moon is full on the
morning of Tuesday, March 21. But,
explains Dr. Downing, "the moon re
ferred to in the ecclesiastical calen
dar, Is not the actual moon In the sky,
which is full at a definite instant of
time, but a fictitious moon, the times
of the phases of which are so ar
ranged as not to differ much from
those of the actual moon.
These phases are held to occur
vaguely on cirtaln days and hold
good far all longitudes. In the In
stance before -us the actual moon
full at 4h, 6f ■-*”
_t!me.
'Easter oi
file those adopting Wash
ington time would keep it on April 23,
in the next full moon.”
Dr. Browning gives as the simplest
expression for the date of the Paschal
full moon March (44-epact). When
the epact is equal to or greater than
24 this expression gives the date of
tho preceding full moon, and the Pas
chal full moon is found by adding 29
to this date. In 1905 the epact is 24,
and the calendar moon is full on
March 20 and April 18. The latter is
Seems Likely to Result From Republi
can Financiering.
Washington, Feb. 1.—The pottof-
flee appropriation aroused a discus
sion on government finances, in
which Mr. Littlefield, of Maine, assert
ed that if appropriations were kept
at their present size there would be
a deficit of 961,000,000.
Mr. Payne, of New York, would not
commit himself in reply to questions
by Messrs. Minor, of Wisconsin, and
Gaines, of Tennessee, as to whether
the house would pass a public build
ing and river and harbor bill, but said
that the present session would be
brought to a close with appropriations
for the next fiscal year that would be
within the government's Income.
Charging that the Republicans
had profligately expended during the
last few years hundreds of millions
of dollars, Mr. Moon, of Tennessee,
declared that if that party had been
true to the people of tho United
States, the deficiency that was now
threatened and which was denied
just bsfore -election, could not {possi
bly have existed.
“The deficiency Is beforp jwrfMnr 1ay.
The 8ecret of Success.
Forty million bottles of August
Flower sold in the United States alone
since its introduction! And tho de

a fine showing of success? Don’t it
prove that August Flower has had un
failing success in the cure of indiges
tion and dyspepsia—the two greatest
enemies of health and happiness?
Does it not' afford the best evidence
therefore the Paschal full moon, and that August Flower is a sure specific

“Now Is the Time You Need Ml-o-na, 1
Says A. E. Dimmock.
Think for q moment of the extra
strain you put upon the stomach in
the winter. The hearty food, the late
suppers, and the lack of exercise and
out door life all weaken and strain the
stomach, laying the foundation
loor health and suffering.
Chronic stomach troubles, nervous
irritability, and serious bowel and kid
ney diseases have often dated from a
week of extra “good living." Nearly
everyone is bothered with more or
less headaches and backaches, furred
tongue, poor appetite, dry, hacking
cough, heartburn, spots before the
eyes, dizziness or vertigo, sleepless
ness, lack of energy, less of flesh or a
general weak, tired feeling.
Now is the .time when Mi-o-na is
needed to repair the ravages and
wastes the hearty eating of winter has
caused In the stomach and digestive
system. This is the only known agent
that strengthens the stomach and di
gestive organs, so they can and will
readily digest whatever food is eaten.
A Mi-o-na tablet taken before each
meal will remove all irritation, in
flammation and congestion in the di
gestive organs, and so strengthen them
that they will extract from the food
all that goes to make good rich blood.
Arm muscle, and a sound, healthy
body.
This remarkable remedy costs but
50 cents, and if its use does not re-
storr you to full vigor, vitality and
noa!!h, A. E. Dimmock, one of the best
Kno n druggists in this section, will
refund your money. Unbounded faith
like this deserves your confidence.
Some Big Pigs Slaughtered.
Mr. Z. J. Bussell, of Mystic, killed

for all stomach and Intestinal disor

best of all liver regulators? August
Flower has a matchless record of over
thirty-five years in curing the ailing
millions of these distressing com
plaints—a success that is becoming

and abroad, as the fame of August
Flower spreads. Trial bottles, 25c;

Take and Keep Receipts.
Every farmer should have a small,
strong box of iron or tin, provided
with a padlock, in which to keep his
receipts. Take a receipt for all
money paid out, even if to your broth
er, and avoid future disputes; and
then don’t carry it around in your
pocket until it is obliterated or lost.
File it away safely. One fellow—an
honest man, too—flatly denied ever
giving me a receipt for a good sum;
but when I produced the same he had
to alter his book a little. Today I
got a bill for “a balance due us” from
a man I paid In full last September.
Going to the file, I readily got his
“receipt in full to date,” and will urge
him to keep books after this.

E. Dimmock, the enterprising
druggist of Valdosta, is having such
a large run on “HINDIPO,” the new

so highly praised that he now offers
to guarantee it in every case to cure
all forms of kidney troubles and ner

He pays for it if it does not give
you entire satisfaction.
If you use it, it is at his risk, not
yours. A 50-cent box sent by mail
