THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMBS-RECORDER: TUESDAY, MAY 12, 1891. Brought back to health—sufferers from the worst forms of Skin and Scalp Diseases, Scrofulous Sores and Swellings, and all manner of blood-taints. It’s done by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med ical Discovery, which purifies and enriches tho blood, and through it cleanses and renews tho whole sys tem. Even Lung-scrofula (known as Pulmonary Consumption) yields to it, if taken in timo and given a fair trial. It’s guaranteed to bene fit or cure, in cveiy case, or money pud for it is refunded. Only a medicine that docs what is claimed for it, could bo sold on such terms. Mo other medicine, besides the “Discovery” has undertaken it. So positively certain is it in its curative effects as to warrant its makers in selling it, as they aro do ing, through druggists, on trial l It’s especially potent in curing Tetter, Salt-rheum, Eczema, Erysip elas, Boils, Carbuncles, Sore Eyes, Goitre, or Thick Meek, and Enlarged Glands, Tumors and Swellings. Great Eating Ulcers rapidly heal under its benign influence. gn.lire.tlon. of N liu.baod. Robert J. Burdetto sayss "Vou say yon demand a domestic, useful woman as your wife. If that is to marry Nora Mulligan, your laundress' daughter. She wears cowhide slyies, is guiltless of cor sets, never had a sick day in her life, takes in washing, go#* out house clean ing and cooks for a family of seven chil dren, her inothferand three section men who board with bar. I don't think she would marry yon, because Con Reagan, the track walker, to her style of man. “Let us examine into your qualifica tions as a husband after your own mat rimonial ideas, my boy. Can you shoul der a barrel of flour and carrydt down cellar? Can yon saw and split ten cords of hickory wood in the fall 8b us to hare ready fuel all winter? Can you spade np half an acre of ground for the Idtchen garden? Do yon know what will take the lime taute out of the cUtern? And can yon patch the lc&k in the kitchen roof? “Can you bring home a pane of glass and a wail of putty and repair damages in the sitting room window? Can yon bang some cheap paper on the Idtchen? Cun you fix the front gate so it will nut skg? Can you do anything around the house that Con Reagan can? My dear, dear I>oy, yon see Nora Mulligan wants a higher type of true manhood. Vou expect to hire men to do all tiio man's work about tho house, bnt you want your wifo to do anything any woman can do. “Believe me, my son, that nine-tenths of the girls who play the piano and sing so charmingly, whom yon, in your limit ed knowledge, set down ns mere butter flies of fashion, are better fitted for wives than you are for a husband. If you want to marry a first class cook and experienced housekeeper do yonr courting in the in telligence office. But if you want a wife marry the girl you love, with dim pled hands and u face- like tile sunlight, and her love will teach her all these things, uiy boy, long lx-fure yon have learned one-half of your own lesson. NOBLESSE OBLIGE. If 1 were you and had |iiuk ,htdls for ears. And eyes like violets dipped in Of having lay love's love I’d have no fears. If I were yon. If I were you. with such flower like face. And all a flower’s own grave to hold it loo. I'd keep my heart as flower pure In Ita place If I were you. If 1 were yon and looked to be a queen. I*d keep myself, as though 1 knew. That what's lietieatb should equal what is seen. i If i were you. If I were you. and Uod had made me fair. So fair that I seemed made to woo; I'd bo as gracious as my grama were. If I were you. ? If I were you-bnt no. alas! 1 see - I could not loro yon as I do; Nor tell yoo ail I'd strive to lie, - , . If I were you. . -Ilrunklyn IJfa.

Anent Mr. Toole’s visit to New Zealand one or two mousing stories have- come to hand. Just before leaving Napier he had a difference of opinion witli n cabman us to a Jure. The matter arose from a mis understanding on both sides, bnt ns Toole was detertninoil not to pay tbe amount, which lie considered unjustly demanded, nnd ns the cabman was equally determined to liavo it. a sum mons wus tho result. The evening pa pers annonneed the fact, anil stated that Toole would defend the case in person in the resident magistrate's court. A large crowd assembled at the conrt honse in consequence, but Toole, huving seen tbe |tarograph referring to the mat ter, preferred paying the claim to being made a free show. The crowd rapidly melted away when this was announced, but tbe fact of the payment did not ap pease the irate cabman, anil when Toole drove down to the launch which was to take him on his way to Auckland, one of the cabmen on the stand called ont for “Three groans' for Toole." “Oh, make it fonr, do!" cried Toole,- and fonr they made it It was probably the first time the fa mous comedian bad over been groaned, and he was hugely tickled at the dem onstration.—London Tit-filto.

Trib une. I*ole Pulley for. Are Lamp*. Moat of die arc lamps used for outdoor lighting are bung from a cord passing over a pulley. And their safety necessari ly depends on the strength of this cord. Usually there is another pulley fastened to the pole, and the cord passes over this pole pulley down to&cleat or a windlass. As this pole pulley is randy found to lie in line with the cord, the result is that the rope w*ra|»es on the edge of the pul ley and wears ont in u short time. A remedy for this has bwn provided in a ;k*t proof pulley, which fit* the up turned end of an ordinary polestep, and which can swing freely on this support. Et is evident that such a pulley is quickly put up and will always stay in lino with the cord.—New York Commercial Ad vertiser. Uevenge.
