2 THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1891. “It makes me tiredI PeopH ask me—is marriage a fail ure ? Of course ’t’aint; s’pose I don’t know my biz—what am I here for?” If the women only keep healthy they keep in good spirits and cupid is in demand. Let every enfeebled woman know this —there’s a remedy that’ll cure her, the prooPs positive. Here’s the proof—if it doesn’t do you good within reasonable time, report the fact to its makers and get your money back without a word—but you won’t do it! The remedy is Hr. Pierce’s Favor ite Prescription—and it has proved itself the right remedy in nearly every case of female weakness. It is not a miracle. It won’t euro every thing—but it has done more to build np enfeebled and broken-down wo men that an r other mtdicing known. MASCULINE MENTION. Henry Wattewou Iihh been made a doc tor of laws by the University of the South. Governor Van Zandt, of Rhode island, la describe! as h fecund and inimitable story teller.

Sir Charles Dilke is a broad shouldered, square built man, with clear gray eyes nud full, grizzled beard. HU manner is serious and dignified and direct almost to abrupt ness. The Marquis of Aylesbury has the bo stowal of eleven ecclesiastical “livings," ay they are called, and the equally notorious Lord Lonsdale lots the lasstowai of forty three. f Stuart. r. He in and h i antic 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.

His hair and beard are black. The bishop is an entertaining talker and a man who shines as brightly in society ns in the pulpit. Spurgeon was only nineteen when he preached his first sermon. Even then his eloquence was remarkable, and within a few years lie had gathered ai>out him a large congregation. At that time he was a pale and slender stripling with a notice ably lurge head. The youngest man to sit in the next con gress will he a Texan named Bailey. He is under thirty, wears long sweeping coat tails and looks like a before tflie war statesman. He is an orator, and it is pre dicted that he will make his mark in the halls of legislation at Washington. Frederick Douglass is a powerfully built man, possessing a tall And commanding figure.

A recent invention used in factories en ables any person iu any part of the factory to stop the maiu engine by simply pushing an electric button. An electric drill in An Idaho mine re cently performed the feat of boring a 2- inch hole through twenty feet of solid granite In four hours. A German has invented an incandescent lamp with two filaments, an automatic Mwitcb bringing the second filament into action on the failure of tbe first. Edisou is now at work on an electric motor to replace tbe ordinary locomotive, it Is designed to take up electricity from a central rail and to develop at least 1,000 horse power. The electric light which Sir K. Watkin intends to have fixed on the summit of Snowden la to be so powerful ns to light up every crag nod precipice of the great mountain, eveu In misty weather. Electricity baa taken such a hold of tbe Australians that it la proposed to bold a large IntertYational electrical exhibition in MelboiiftlW about tbe end of the year, which will be the summer season in that antipodean land. ft might be poasible to apeak across the Atlantic over a cable as big as a hogshead, but as tbe cost and manipulation of such a cable are prohibitive we shall have to be content to await further developments in telephoning work. Mauy persons Imagiue that the electric light gives out no heat. This is a mistake. So far as we have at present been able to determine there can be no light without heat; but in the case of the electric light the heat is only one-twentieth part of that evolved by gas. M. Moscnrt, one of the most eminent French electricians of tbe time, says that the use of the magnet needle in tracing the underground geology, or, in other words, tbe past geography of a country, is one of those triumphs of science which are almost tantamout to divination. We now have electric lighting and elec tric power, and the next development of this wonderful form of energy will be electric heating. Already it is reported to bare been tried on steam and horse cars, with invariable success, and it is said there U a growing demand for it in houses.
