THE AMERICUS DAILY TlMES-RECOhDER: WEDNESDAY, JULY 15, 1891. v ' At good as lie iff —dait’s the condition of liver, stom ach and bowels, when Dr. Pierce’s Fteaaant 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 .11 done so mildly and gently 1 There’* none of the violence that Went with the old-time pill. One tiny, sugar-coated Pellet’s a gentle laxative—three to four act as a cathartic. Sick Headache, Bilious fft.fdii.ha, Constipation, Indiges tion, Bilious Attacks, and all de rangements of the stomach and bowels, are prevented, relieved and eared. As a Liver Pill, they’re un equaled. They’re purely vegetable, perfectly harmloss—tbo smallest, cheapest, and easiest to take. .They’re the cheapest pill you can bay, because they’re guaranteed to ^fve satisfaction, or your money is returned. You only pay for the good you get Can you ask more? That’s the veetdiar plan all Dr. Pierce’s medicines are sold on. THE GREAT TONIC. Peerifts Me Bleed. Aids Blgsstion.

Roan..he. A Comedy of Errors. Attorney C. C. Babcock Is a very hon •at looking young gentleman, and yet ho was twice taken for a thief and ones for ; a dead l>eat. Mr. Babcock went into a restaurant on Third street and deposited his umbrella in the rack and hung his black Derby hat on a nickel plated hat hook. When the disciple of Blackstone had finished his repast he walked over to the wall and took what be supposed was his hat, put it on and started toward the counter to pay for his breakfast. An athletic looking gentleman, who was eating his morning repast and watch ing his portable property, roared out: “Come back here, sir, and leave my hat.” All the ladies and gentlemen in the restaurant watched Mr. Babcock as he replaced the hat and took his own. The young lawyer was as mad as a hor net and somewhat confused at the con' tretemps. Then ho walked over to the umbrella rack and picked up an um brella. The observant gentleman whose hat Mr. Baltcock had taken noticed that it was his umbrella that was being carried off, and he shouted in stentorian tones: “Drop that umbrella or I’ll hand you over to the police.” Mr. Babcock saw that he had made a second mistake, and soon fished his own rain shedder from among the many others that were in the rack. Then ho left the restaurant, and he was called back by the cashier, who came to the door and excitedly said: “Hadn’t you better come back and pay for your breakfast? You will at least avoid being handed over to the police.” As he still had his check for a flfty- cent breakfast in his hand, Mr. Bab cock walked back and paid his bill, with the eyes of every lady and gentleman In the place fixed suspiciously upon him. One elderly lady audibly remarked: “He don’t look like a thief, but you can’t tell by looks nowadays what a person is, as good clothes don’t cost much.”-Seat tle Press. Notice! The patrons of Tns Times-Recorder are urged to pay promptly the bills which are now due for subscription, ad vertising and job work for the past month. A newspaper has to pay its labor the cash weekly, aud on the first of the month it Is necessary for all its bills to be promptly collected. The current expenses of The Time*- Kecorder establishment are about $50 per day, which must be paid every Monday without fail or delay. We are therefore compelled to press collections; and while the small bills that some owe may cause them to re gard the matter as insignificant, these small accounts aggregate several thou sand dollars, which we are compelled to collect promptly to meet our obligations. A newspaper can’t run a week with out money; so come up to the captain’s office and settle. Times Publishing Company.

J i l & Geo. (Huccesaorn o W. L. Mardre.) SCHOOL BOOKS No Flies on This With the Tong.. A great deal of laughter has been ex pended on womankind for taking the broom as a weapon in “shooing” an enemy, but, after all, why should not ono use the implement to which she is most accustomed? Great executinh is possible with the weapon of our choice, as an English Indy, living in Canada, has proved. She was one day greatly interested in putting out the family washing to dry. Sheets aud tablecloths were on the line, which, to her horror, suddenly fell, dropping her sjiotless clothes in the dirt. A largo buck, caught by the antlers, was tlie cause of the trouble. There was not a man within five miles—they hod all gone to a neighbor's for the day. The deer plunged about, and the lady Bcream- ed. Something had to be done, and done at once. There was a fine gun in the house, loaded, but the lady would not ap proach it, as firearms were her especial dread. Among her many possessions sho had a large pair of tongs. She thoroughly understood this firearm, and witli ail her housewifely instincts outraged, shoscizod them and licgan the attack. Within five minutes the buck's skull was pounded to a jelly, and then the vic tor, her clothing slightly torn, sat down and indulged in a good cry.—Forest and Stream. Trout sod Superstition. The trout is derived from a word mean- lng to eat, just as salmon from one mean ing to leap. The former fish has acquired some celebrity in folk medicine. Thus it lu a superstition of Shropshire that a pin dish full of cider should be takon down to a river and a good sized trout caught and drownod in the cider, would a per son recover from the whooping cough. Trout and cider were then to be carefully carried bock to the house, and the sick person must eat the trout after it has been fried and drink the cider. In North umberland for the same ailment a trout's head is put into the mouth of the suf ferer, and, as it is said, tho trout is left to breathe in the patient's mouth. Still more curiously, Mr, Henderson relates that a friend, when fishing in Cleveland, was asked by a peasant to give him a “wick” (live) trout to lay on the stomach of ono of his children who was much troubled with worms, a trout so applied being a certain cure for the complaint.— Gentleman's Hngozino. Nina Tailors Make s Man. Everybody lias heard of the saying that it takes nine tailors to make a man, and the general supposition is that it re flects upon tailors in some indefinite man ner, and no one knows where the saying originated. Now, the truth is that the saying is misquoted, and the proper word is toilers, or tellers, not tailors, as often written, and its origin can he traced back several centuries. It was one of the customs wuen a per son died in the parish to toll the church bell once for every year of the deceased's life. But nobody from this could tell tho sex of tiie departed, so the sexton, to gratify public curiosity, after ringing in the usual way the number of years, would give eight quick strokes if tho de ceased was a woman and nine if it was a man. This being rung at the cud of the strokes for tho years were called tailers, and thus nino tailers raado a man.— Golden Days Understood tlis Case.

Let the World Know You Are In It. It seems almost a crime for a man to “hide his light under a bushel.” If he has something low that will benefit the human race, ho should mako it known Old fogy physicians tread the beaten path of their grandfathers, denounces advertised remedies, and never learn anything new. Medical science knows no parallel to Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre scription, compounded by a physician of skill and long experience, especially for the maladies which alllict women. It effects a permanent cure of those ago nising disorders which attack her frail organism, and is an anchor alike to deli cate girls and suffering women; contains no deleterious drugs.
