THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1891. Keep oat disease by keeping in healthy ac tion the liver, stomach and bowels. There’s a pleasant and a sure way of doing it. It's with I)r. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. They’re the best Liver Pill ever made, and a prompt and effective remedy for Sick Headache, Bilious Headache, Con stipation, Indigestion, Bilious At tacks, and all derangements of the stomach, liver and bowels. They cleanse and renovate the system, quietly but thoroughly. '1 hey reg ulate the system, too—they don’t upset it, like the old-fashioned pills. Tneso are purely vegetable and per fectly harmless. One “ Pellet ” a dose. They’re the easiest to take, and the mildest in operation—the smallest in size, but the most effi- cicnt in their work. 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 get. Can yon ask more ? That’s the peculiar plan all Dr. Pierce’s medicines are sold on.

The anemone coronaria commonly prows wild about Smyrna aud in Asia Minor, spreading fur and wide as the most lieantifnl of spring blossoms, grow ing on chalk soil along the edges of shrublierv. We cannot wonder that it was already in ancient times a favorite of the inhabitants and excited in poetic minds sensations such as can only be ex cited by surprising beauty. *'I am the rose of Sharon and the lily of the val leys," sings the first wrse of the second chapter of Solomon's song, and there can be no doubt today what is here meant by ( the rose of Sharon. j it was an American, Fiske P. Brewer, who decided this question, Narcissus j Tazetta. which likewise grows in Pales- | tine, having previously lieen considered j the Biblical flower. This gentlemau, ac- ! curding to the Edinburgh Review of lSHii, while traveling in the year 1859 from Jaffa to IiunMi, came npou a place where a considerable expanse of ground was half covered with brilliant ml flowers. At the sight of them some of his native companions immediately ex claimed, -Roses of Sharon." and when he inquired about the name he was told that the anemone was there universally so called. in truth it would not be easy other- wist; to hjicak of a rose in Palestine, for native roses do not exist there—at least not where they would justify the associ ation of the plain of Sharon with their name. Wild roses are found in Pales tine only on Lebanon, or where, here and there. R. centifolia is cultivated for the production of attar, as in the Wadi- el-Werd (Rose-valley), near Hebron. According to Ebert, and Quthe, in their “Palestine," the translations of the Bible often use the word rose where there is no warrant for understanding by it a true rose. The roses of Persia and Media were not introduced into Palestine before the Grecian period.— Uhwtrirte Garden-Zeitung. for Infants and Children. “CutsrlaRioiren adapted to children that I recomnred llil lupirior to any prcacriptlop known to me."

Few are the intelligent farolllea who do not keep Castoria How Old fa Punch? On lumliug at one of the sugar fac tories we found that there was a fair go ing on under nn avenne of tamarisks close by. The dealers sat under the trees with their wares before them, fruit and vegetables in one quarter, cotton and calicoes in nnother, native woolen stuffs, robes, rugs, cloth, etc., in a third; there was also a cattle fair, sheep, buf faloes, camels and donkeys. There were nl fresco coffee stalls and a booth, with in which the sonnds of very noisy music could be heard, the drum predominating. We entered, and were much amused on finding that it was an Arab Pnnch and Judy show, but Pnnch wore a turban and Jody a yashmak. Tlie former jierpetrated a series of enormities, and ended by tearing off Judy's veil during a family sqnabble: after this he became a perfect desperado, and on the mainour (chief magistrate of the district), got up in the official tar boosh and blue frock coat, arriving, at tended by a retinue of cawasses armed witli sticks, he knocked that redoubtable personage head over heels, amid the vo ciferous applause of the assembled fella heen. Punch fiasha’s popularity was now at its height, and much sympathy was felt for him when his career termi nated by his being hanged on the pole of a shadoof. It was really a very clever and lively performance. I tnfned to the inspector of the factory, who was with me, and said, "I suppose they have borrowed this from Europe.' “Borrowed it from Europe!" he ex claimed. "Why, it was performed in the east before Europe was thonght of. So then old Pnnch is, after all, but a de generate version of an Egyptian play.— Stuart’s “Egypt After the War." A Suro Way of Killing O.l. Frost Bunker, of the Dead river re gion, is a guide who. it is said, Is a suc cessful rival to James A. Smith, of Phil lips—a Rangely guide—in story telling. Frost is intimately acquainted with “John Smith,” who is well known in all parts of the country. He says he was with John on a hunting trip once on a time, when they came upon a man who had tired at an owl (perched in a big tree) about a dozen times without suc cess. As they approached the stranger offered John a five dollar bill if he would secure the owl. John cocked his rifle and walked around the tree. The owl turned his head in the same direction as far as John walked. John kept on going around the tree, the owl turning his iiend all the while. Just as John completed the tenth circuit the owl's head was twisted off and ho fell to the ground dead. John said small owls eooldn't he killed that way because their feet would fly up in turning.—Phillips (Me.) Phonograph. Salaries of Old English Actor*. Kean never spent more than two or three tb«'UH*o(l poyml* upon a revival, xml this was considered marvolous in those days. Messrs. Irvin# and Wilson Barrett have more than doubled such sums. Again, salaries were incompara bly smaller. For some time John Ryder, who played second to Kean, received only three i>ouih1s ten shillings a week until, discovering that another actor of about equal jwsition was in the receipt of eight pounds, he threatened to break his engagement unless his salary was at once doubled, a request which was com plied with. Now such an actor would command from thirty to fifty pounds a week. On the other hand, Kean raised the ballet girls from a shilling a night, their old pay, out of which they had to find shoes and stockings, to a guinea a week, and found them everything.— London Tit-Bits.
