THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECOKDER: TUESDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1801. WITH A HEALTH DOCTOR Goes right to the spot —ono of Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pel lets. They do the right kind of work when they get there, too. No violence, no unpleasantness—but mild and gentle cleansing and regu lating of the whole system. Sick Headache, Bilious Headache, Dizzi ness, Constipation, Indigestion, Bil ious Attacks, and all derangements of the liver, stomach and bowels, are promptly rclioved ahd permanently cured. They’re the best Liver Pill ever made. Purely vegetable, per fectly harmless, easiest to take, and always fresh and reliable. Gently aperient, or strongly cathartic, ac cording to size of dose—one tiny “Pellet” for a dose. They’re the smallest in size, but the most satis factory in result. They’re the cheapest pill you can bny, becauso they’re guaranteed to give satisfaction, or your money is returned. You only pay for the good you get. Can you ask more? This is the way with the Ball corset: if you want ease and shapeliness, you buy it—but you don't keep it unless you like it. After two or three weeks' wear, you can return it and have your money. Comfort Isn't all of.h though. Soft Eyelets, and "bones” that can’t break or kink—Ball’s corsets haws both of these. For sale by GKO. D. WHEATLEY.

EARLY MORNING SCENES IN TENE MENT HOUSE DISTRICTS. Half Starved Hair., auil Children That Ur* mi Hecnjrwl Fruit bm<I Nourish- nient That U Wont*—Homily Hindis Abound itnd How They Are Corrected. Twenty minutes in one of the districts of tlie slimmer corps of the board of health will enable any one to obtain an idea of how the tenement house people live. .. Imagine that yon have accepted an inVitntion to spend twenty minutes with one of the summer doctors. It is a hot Angustday, 8 o'clock in the morning. The air even at this early hour is stifling Are you surprised to find life astir here? Remember you are in the midst of the poor people, who ijegin their day's labor at 0 o'clock. Entering our district, nothing escapes our eyes. See fhis stand on the comer piled up with fruit, beautiful to behold, suggest ing a garden in the tropics. But what ia that odor? And this wee newsboy— what does he want to bny? Unriosity to see what the child is go ing to buy, also our duty impelling us to discover the cause of the odor, bold ns a moment. We seo that he buys two peaches for a cent, and then for the first time notice that the luscious heaps con sist of piles of decaying frnit thrown promiscuously together—rotten pears, bananas and peaches; this rotten frnit selling at two and three for a cent We mildly accost the owner ami tell him snob fruit is not wholesome; it ought to bo thrown away. He "doesn't care” about the unwhole- someuesaof the stuff. Wo then show our iNtdge anil make him throw it away. We pass on thinking that we bare saved the lives of many children, an ounce of prevention being better than a pound of cure. Pushing our way we proceed. It ia really pushing onr way, for the street fa lined with mothers, each holding a baby in her arms, with another dragging on to her skirts. Some are sitting on the stoops, some in the areas and others on the curbstones; iu fact they are all over. Suddenly we hear a pitiful wail from a little baby. We know what that meana —it means that the baby ia thirsty. The mother also thiuka she knows. She gives it the breast The poor baby, after clutching it eagerly and taking many swallows, releases it and again cries that same pitiful, forlorn waiL BLESSED WATER. Can any one be Ignorant that nothing can qneneb thirst bat water? Milk ia a poor substitute. Ban ie a chance to give a private lecture, aad preseatly we are telling the mother that the baby needs water to qaenok its thirst; the hot weather makes it sweat*good deal; it loses * great dtal of water and so needs a great deal. . A passing ica wagon fur nishes a scrap of ica It dost oaa good to sea how eagerly baby aucka it This mother lives in a bouse where there are fifteen other mothers, and asking her to tell the others, wa walk away feeling rare before night all then babies trill be drinking water.' Wa ban told her to boil the WAUr.'pnt .lt o* ioa and then give it to thababy to drink. Looking np and down the street we see that it to very dirty. Going over to investigate a pile of dirt, wa sea on Its nphiU side a pool of stagnant water which to almost item, (riven a hot August day, a peck of garbage and the universal dust, and wa have a germ breeding orator.' The people inhale this •trail da?and all rd£kt' Looking around we ses the booses that need us moat—dirty, filthy homes. No wonder the people camp out in the streets all day—yea, and all night Wa ssa a. group of tnotbenand children standing ata ball door. They make room fer us to pass. We ’stop to speak to tbem. Noticing a weary, white faced girl of about twenty yean, and seeing a child clinging to her dress, we ask her about the baby, then nbont herself. Sbe tells ns that the baby is a year and a half old, still nursing. Asking her it she does not know that babies should be weaned at nine months, the answer we receive is, yes, that she knows, but it does not hnrt it and it saves the cost of buying milk for the baby, for they are very poor. DEATH IN THE CELLAR. Out in theyard we notice n child about three years old, with an old man’s face —this face being characteristic of rick- etts, that disease now becoming so com mon among poor people. Tills little one is busy eating nn apple skewered on a stick, and eating it as if it were its en tire breakfast; not dessert or any relish, hut its whole meal. In contrast to this one and other dirty children, three dean children attracted attention, nud what n contrast! Uur twenty minutes is almost up, but We can hardly teur ourselves away from this gypsylike encnnipmeuL A last look at them forces a smile, os we see a Ger man huosefrau with her basket of lunch, blanket and knitting. She has evidently come from an upper story to spend the day on the sidewalk, in the hall we meet a pleasant faced, motherly woman; she is evidently the janitress. Wo ask her about the number of families in the house, children, plumbing, sickness, etc. We notice a distinct odor in the ball. We'll try the cellar. She lights ns down there, and answers glibly all our ques tions. We are'really osluuned to have suspected anything wrong iu the cellar, bat the odor is a danger signal, which says. "Take heed; danger!" We look around the cellar; all clean and dry. We are just going to leave when we see a relieved look in her face, and suspecting at once something wrong, begin to pry about from end to end. Knocking on one end of tbe wall wa find it not solid, but boarded np. We poll one of the boards ont and discover tbe tbe cause of tbe odor. There lice an un derground lake, fed not by springs, but by an old leak in the sewtrl This, at least, tbe authorities can deal with. We report^ tho case at ;onoe.—New York Did it ever oocur to you to think bow wretchedly Inferior as a runner mania to nearly every other living creators? IImIsmc nud Berthut. Balzac, the great French novelist, once receive.1 a iessou In ginul manners from a younger and less distinguished associate. The hint came with good grace from the younger man. Elie Ber- thet. because it was deserved, and lie- cause Berthet himself was a person of courteous manners and gen tie and amia ble disposition. Berthet bail written some romances which became so popular, and he so distiugnfshed himself in juitri nalistic work, as to become an assistant editor of The .Steele As tile assistant of M. Desnoyers. tile editor of The Socle, he had tieen intro duced to Balzac. But though Balzac had many interviews with M. Desuoy- ers, ami was often in the office, he never paid the slightest attention to Berthet. He did not even speak or Ism- to the young novelist. One day Balzac* took some copy to The Siecle office, mid was greatly disturbed because M. Desnoyers. whom he wished to see, was out. Soon after he left the office he met Elie Berthet. He went np to the yonng man. and without touching Ins hat or otherwise salnting him. tonched him on the arm with one finger and said: ••All! yon tell Desnoyers that I have ieft the copy at the office." Without a second glance he tamed away. Berthet delivered the message and tbe editor replied: "I am not likely to forget It. He has sent me word by three persons already." Three days later Balzac and Berthet met at about the same place. Berthet did not take off his hat. He tonched Balzao on the arm with one finger and said: "Abl he says you'have sent him word by three persons already." Then he walked on.—Youth’s Com panion. Chamberlain’s Eye rmri Fran Ointment.
