THE aMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: TUESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1891. CONDENSED NEWS DISPATCHES. A MAD POET rushed Into a newspaper office recently, and threatened to “clean out” the es tablish ment, because they printed his verses wrong. Said he: “I wrote. ‘To dwell forever in a pent of peace,’ and you idiots put it ‘a pot of grease.'” The inoriiiicd editor presented idnt with a vial of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, a year's subieriptiou and an apology. The little “Pellets” positively cure sick and nervous headache, biliousness, costiveuoss, and all derangements of the stomach, bowels and liver. It's a large contract, but the smallest things In the world do the business — Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They're the small est, but the most effective. They go to work in the right way. They cleanse and renovate the liver, stomach and bowels thoroughly—but they do It mildly and gently. You feel the good they do—but you don't feel them do ing It. 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. That's the peculiar plan all Dr. Pierce's mci.iciues are sold on, through druggists. Oom.stte amt Foreign and of General Internet.

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 it though. Soft Eyelets, and "bones” that can’t break or kink—Ball’s corsets have both of these. For sale by GEO. D. WHEATLEY.

She called at the office and in the course of a brief conversa tion expressed a wish to kiss him.

A r«*culiur Phenomenon. Monroe, Ga., Oct. SO.—A very pe culiar phenomenon was witnessed by parties traveling in the afternoon ibortly after sauset. Distinct warm waves were encountered in the cool at mosphere of the October afternoon. In walking in a southerly direction, abont half a mile from the courthouse, some three or four warm currents were no ticeable, each lasting the distance of two or three ordinary paces. The sen sation was so marked as to remind one of the touch of warm water after being in cold air, and in emerging from the wnrtn current into the normal temper ature was like the touch of ice. It was a peculiar phenomenon. Mistaken Identity. Indianapolis, Oct. 26.—Several days ago a man was found drowned in the canal, and the body was identified by a grand-daughter as the remnins of J. E.
