THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: TUESDAY, MAY 2G, 1891. fi/tirt the door against disease. Danger comes oft- enest through impure hlootl. Keep your blood in order, and yon teep in health. For this, nothing equals Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov ery. It invigorates the liver, puri fies and enriches the blood, and rouses every organ into healthy ac tion. By this means it cures. Ev ery part of the system feels its saving influence. Dyspepsia, Indi gestion, Biliousness. Scrofulous, Skin and Scalp Diseases — even Consumption (or I.ung-scrofula) in its earlier stages, all yield to it. It’s the only Liver, Blond and Lung Remedy that's guarantied to bene fit or cure, or the money is re funded. Trying terms to sell on —but it’s a medicine that can carry them out. “ Golden Medical Discovery ” contains no alcohol to inebriate, and no syrup or sugar to derango digestion. It's a concentrated vegetable ex tract; put up in largo bottles; pleasant to the taste, and equally good for adults or children. .Harder Will Out. Ten years ago nu old 'Inter named Tom Poole, who, with his twochildre lived on a farm between Pemberton meadow* and LiUoo-t lakes, was f I murdered.

About two weeks ago Nemiah quar reled with another Indian in his hand, and the hands of the chief were almost stained with the blond of his third tim. Other Indians present seized and bound him, and immediately s^nt a sage to B. Franklin, justice of the peace at Tatlae Lake, that they had got Ne- xniah and wanted theanthorities to come np and take him. <hi receipt of this in- furination Franklin, accompanied by a posse of special constables, left immedi ately. only to find- on arriving nt their destination that their bird had flown. Nemiah's squaw had cut the ropes that l>onnd him while the others were asleep. Making good use* of his liberty Nemiah took to the “stick.” where he is supposed to be at present. The party found that the Indian Guishon, with whom Nemiah had the quarrel, was not dangerously in jured. All the other Indians are willing to assist in the capture of Nemiah, or ap pear to be.—Vancouver (B. C.) Cor. Ta coma Ledger. APPLICATION FOR CHARTER. GEORGIA—Sumter County.

Oxford St., Brooklyn, N. Y. 31 ii ft hr 1*01 A local expert proposes to make mush room hunting a sjiecialty this summer, and he is certain that if there is any sec tion of Maine where there are lovers of this fungus it is right here in Lewiston and Auburn. On his finger he can count scores of men (has to use his fingers twice over and more, too, you see) who are fond of them and know how to cook them. At one certain country house in Lewis ton the Sunday mushroom dinner is a fixed thing in summer, and my! aren't they delicious! The old rule for distin guishing them from toadstools—viz., eat them, and if you die tjiey are toadstools —is not now operative. It’s a poor mushroom gatherer who does not know the difference. The top of the young mushroom is white, the under portion loose aud lighter. As it matures the top changes to a brown color and the under part to a dark red. The stem, which is white and round when young, also grows dark with age. Eatable mushrooms have pleasant odor and are never slimy. A test projnjsed is to sprin kle salt on the under side or spongy part and give it time to act. If it turns black the innshroom is good: if yellow, the toadstool is poisonous.—Lewiston Jour nal. Woodpecker** •! nit ire. A year ago a pair of red headed wood peckers determined to peck a hole in the boarding under tho eaves of a house, as wood peckers often do. The owner of the house, not liking such mutilation, after repeated efforts succeeded in driving them away, and they went to work at onco and dug a hole in the nearest tree. When the birds' home was finished and housekeeping had begun the farmer’i boys captured the female as she sat in the nest and kept her in a cage, hoping to catch tho male also. Two days later he returned with an other wife. The boys relented at the sight. They gave Mrs. Woodpecker No. 1 her liberty and awaited results. To their surprise the male woodpecker, after a relentless pursuit of about six hours, killed her. Then he destroyed the one egg which she had laid, and con tin ued housekeeping with wife No. 2 as if nothing had happened.—Cor. Youth’s Companion, uiperc rogation to endorse It.

It is hard to got ahead of the street car companies, liut some people in Chicago think they are going to do it. They are having constructed vehicles exactly like street cars, except tliat the wheels are a little larger. They are ganged to fit the car tracks, and it is proposed to run them Dn the tracks just like any horse car, with out asking with your leave or by your leave. They will stop like the street cars and charge the same fare. If tin- car companies object, owners of the new vehicles will {mint to the fact that they are simply omnibuses, which are en titled u use any portion of the public ftnsits, whether tracks happen to be there or not. If the car companies don’t like their tracks to be nsed tln-y are at liberty to take them away.—Exchange. Hands That Statesmen Write. Anion# Lord Granville's other amiable possesions was that of a very neat and scholarly handwriting. Perhaps this’is one ret. son for his popularity with press men. On the whole, however, states- jon certainly do not write worse than writers.” Mr. Gladstone's hand is in deed spoiled by over indulgence m {>oet- cards. Mr. Balfour’s hand is not pretty, and Mr. G-then's is execrable. Mr. John Morley’s hand has character, hut is not always easy to read. Lord Salisbury write* clearly. So do Lord Rosebery and Lord Harrington. But it may be doubted whether any of those we have mentioned write at once so prettily and so legibly as did Lord Granville.—Pall Mall Gazette.
