THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: TUESDAY, MAY 5, 1891. ^OT.IIWT 111. Taken in time, even Consumption yields to the wonderful effects of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It won’t make new lungs—but it will make diseased ones healthy when nothing else will. There’s reason for it, too. Consumption is Lung- scrofula. For every form of scrof ula, and all blood-taints, the “ Dis covery ” is a positive cure. It’s the most potent strength - restorer, blood - cleanser, and flesh-builder known to medical science. For Weak Lungs, Spitting of Blood, Bronchitis, Asthma, Catarrh, and all lingering Coughs, it’s an une- qualed remedy. It’s a guaranteed one. If it doesn’t benefit or cure, you havo your money back. You’ve everything to gain from it—nothing to lose. It’s especially potent in curing Tetter, Salt-rheum, Eczema, Erysip elas, Boils, Carbuncles, Sore Eyes, Goitre, or Thick Neck, and Enlarged Glands, Tumors and Swellings, Great Eating Ulcers rapidly heal under its benign influence.

White Fcrda the Spi Every day about 10 o’clock there ap pears in the doorway of the Pierrepont house, Brooklyn, a gentleman with gray hair and whiskers of a rather English pattern. The closely buttoned frock coat shows the figuro of a well kept man, careful and methodical in his habits. This inan is Col. P. Wliite, who for the last twenty years lias been a boarder at tbo Montague street hotel, and who is as well known as the very name of the house he inhabits. Regular as a planet, rain or shine. CoL White appears with the same object in view. He feeds the sparTows, who daily await in the big tree opposite the hotel the ap pearance of their friend. Generally Cpl. White has a handful of corn bread. When he stands outside the door the little gray and brown birds swoop down from their perches. Some of the boldest light on Col. White’s arms and shoulders, and there is ono very date and methodical bird that will take his stand on the colonel’s thumb and pick crumbs from his open hand. Not less than twenty sparrows are regular in their attendance, and often there are a half.a hundred chirping and twittering for their share of the food. When the crowd is unusually large Col. White walks around to the Hicks street side and deals ont the crumbs on the sidewalk or on the asphalt street. Some of the birds know his voice, and stand around his feet twittering impudently and impatiently for their rations. When the meal is ended they are told to go, and they do, but only to return about o’clock in the afternoon for their dinner from the samo kind hands.—New York Telegram. “Bringing Father'* Dinner." It was in the C., H. anil D. depot in Cincinnati one day when one of the men employed to oil the cars ns they came in accidentally fell nnder the wheels of moving coach and had his right leg and hip crushed in a horrible manner. He was picked np and laid on some coats spread on the platform, and a doctor was soon on hand. Ho must have suf fered intensely, but after the doctor had examined him he coolly asked: “Doctor, how had is it?" “Very had, indeed." “Will I liver’ “Not more than ten minutes; you ore bleeding to death.” Wlmt time is it, Jim?” asked the man of a fellow employe. “Eleven fifty-five,” was the answer. "The children will bring my dinner at sharp 13. Homo of yon go np and stop them. They innsn't see mo die. Poor, motherless children—orphans now!' I went to the door with the others, and we were just in time to stop a boy of 8 and a girl of 0 from coming in. Each had hold of tbo handle of a basket con taining father's dinner, and they were smiling in anticipation of the greeting they would receive. We sent them awny with a false story about his having gone home, und tho eyes of both were filled with tears of disappointment. The echo of their footsteps could still be heard on the pavement when the father breathed his last.—New York Sun. for Infants and Children. Trrmtm.nt or Dolls Tho treatment of boils should be, in the first placo, constitutional, aiming to restore the vigor of the system. The diet shonld be generous, without excess, And easily digestible. The patient, while avoiding exhaustion, should tako a proper amount of exercise, have an abandonee of pure air and wash bis body daily with cool water and soap. Local treatment also is needed. To arrest the progress of a boil at its early stage Sir Erasmus Wilson advises the application of a solution of aagar of lead every six or twelve hours with a camel’s hair brush. If this fails he would pro mote suppuration by spreading on it a wash leather plaster of galbannm and opium, cut in the middle for the escape of the pus. If the pain continues to increase ho wonldapplysoothingapplications. When the boil begins to heal ho would keep the skin around it dry, clean it with tar soap and smear it with yellow rosin oint ment, dressing the broken surface with lint spread with tho same ointment, keeping tho dressing in position with strips of adhesive plaster or by a light bandage.—Youth's Companion.

Alphonse Daudet, considered by many the most popular living novelist, is one of the most remarkable looking mon in Europe. He has an exquisitely shaped head, broad, white forehead, coal black eyes and hair and a full dark beard. Years ngo, when he first camo up to Paris from Lyons, unknown and friend less, ho was so poor that he was forcod to mako his journey in a cold freight car, and had nothing to eat for two days. A copy of his poems fortunately b*ec tho eye of tho Empress Eugenie, who directed the Due de Merry to send for him. Poor Daudet with difficulty 1 procured suitable clothing for his Ap pearance at the Tnilerie8. bnt a lucra tive secretaryship wus soon offered him by Do Moray, and hi3 pecuniary trials Were ended.—New York Ledger. Origin of a Common Cipirulon. “Barking up tho wrong tree” is a very common expression in the west It orig inated from the fact that a dog will bark at the foot of a particular tree to indi cate to his master whero the game is located. While endeavoring to see the animal he discovers it on another tree, and it finally escapes him altogether. In its application it denotea that a person has mistaken his object or is looking for it in tho wrong place.—Detroit Free Press. Rev. James W. Ford, for more than half a century a missionary in China and founder of tbefint Christian church in that country, says: “After studying the Chinese language for ten years I translated the New Testament and other religions work*. I began to preach in a way immediately after I entered Siam, bnt though I have studied for fifty years I do not yet tldnk that I have mastered the Chineso language." “Cutorlatedowen adapted to children that I recommend Ita* superior to anj prescription known to me."
