THE AMERICUS DAILY TtMES-RECORDER: THURSDAY, MAY 14, 1891. HOW GEN/6 CAME INTO THE WORLD. The Mooasprite looked down from her sent In the moon On the dark world, bo distant and low. And fancied ita women would hall aa a boon Any keepsake that lore can bestow. She gathered the glittering stars from on high. And she warmed every star with a hoe From the bow which Jehovah has set in tbs sky As a sign of his covenant true. • As good os new —that’s the condition of liver, stom ach and bowels, when Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets have done their work. It’s a work that isn’t fin ished when you’ve stopped taking them, either. It’s lasting. They cure, as well as relieve. And it’s all done so mildly and gently! There’s none of the violence that went with the old-time pill. One tiny, sugar-coated Pellet’s a gentle laxative — threo to four act as a cathartic. Sick Headache, Bilious Headache, Constipation, Indiges tion, Bilious Attacks, and all de rangements of the stomach and bowels, are prevented, relieved and cured. As a Liver Pill, they’re un- cqualcd. They’re purely vegetable, perfectly harmless — the smallest, cheapest, and easiest to take. They’re the cheapest pill you can buy, because they’re guaranteed to give satisfaction, or your money is returned. You only pay for the good you Can you ask more ? That’s the peculiar plan all Dr. Pierce’s medicines aro sold on. She transformed by her magic each afar to a gem. And, unloosing the folds of her robe. That love may be proven by searching for them. She scattered them over the globe. And some as they fell mink deep in the soil. And others fell Into the sea. There’s treasure enough to reward for their THAT'S 50 JOHNNY ROACH imsbsssws .

Women are especially hard to serve. 1 had a case the other day in which I spent a great deal of money and was very mnch an noyed by the delay caused by my man' failure to serve a female defendant in case where personal service waa neces sary. “One of my clerks said that he thought that he could have the paper served. Sure enough, he caine back the next day with an affidavit of service, and told me that a yonng woman friend served the paper. Since then, whenever t have a difficult case of that kind I call the young woman to my assistance. The moat sus picious debtor will not, for a moment, suspect a woman with having clandes tine designs against him, and a well dressed female can easily gain admit tance where it wonld be impossible for a man to enter.”—New York Telegram. A Question of Etiquette. It hag repeatedly been asked ns to why the empress, after the news of Sedan was made public, did not present herself to the guards and the people of Paris, and call upon them to rally aronnd her and her son, and to maintain for the latter the imperial throne. The cause of this sin gular abstention haa been made public. It was because no suitable riding habit conld be fonnd for her in which to show herself on horseback to the troops and the populace. There was only one to be found at the Tnileries in the hurry and confusion of that terrible crisis. It was one made for the hunting parties at Compeigne, and was in the Lonis XV style, composed of green velvet embroidered with gold, and necessitating a cocked bat for comple tion of the costume. It was too theat rical. It would not do, and so the gal lant appeal to the public was given up, and with it the last hope for the preser vation of the empire.—Paris Cor. Phila delphia Telegraph. W.

Bowles for the past six months has been acting pastor of the Universalist churches in Abington and South Weymouth, Moss., in place of her husband, who has been seriously UL On Easter Sunday Mrs. Bowles drove four miles to Sonth Weymouth, preached an Easter sermon and administered the communion; then retained to Abington, preached again in the afternoon and again conducted the communion service, and in the evening assisted at an Easter concert of the Sunday school. Both churches were beautifully decorated with plants and flowers. The sermons were preached without notes, and re ceived high commendation.—Woman’s Journal. The Ut.lt Veil. The latest veil is a spider mesh pat tern, with a tiny spider himself in vel vet arranged as the beauty spot. Just remember, there is always a right and a wrong way to assume a veil. The right way is to have it well over the chin, drawn up slightly at the (idea and fastened high np at the back. A badly arranged veil will often spoil the entire charm of a dainty bonnet, and while the wearer is wondering that her dearest friend does not admire it and say so, die little .realizes that ite beauty has beat spoiled by the arrangement of the bit of filmy stuff at once a protection and a coquetry.—New York Letter. A Yellow Sommer. We all know that last summer was a white summer. The girls affected white costumes even to shoes and glqvee, and to oar expense wo know that white flan nel suits and shirts were the correct things for men. A lady who says she knows all about it, and who certainly should, assures me that this is to be a yellow summer in the same way. For a convincing proof she points to any of the shop windows.—New York Herald. Sweep, Oh! Sweep. Henry Carter, a Colorado millionaire, was walking about in' Philadelphia and saw a servant girl sweeping off the front steps of a house. “Jnst the gal I want for a wife!” whispered Henry; and in three weeks he had her on his arm and was westward hoipg.
