THE aMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECUKDER: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1893.
Brought back
to health—sufferers from the worst
forms of Skin and Scalp Diseases,
Scrofulous Sores and Swellings, and
all manner of blood-taints. It’s
done by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med
ical Discovery, which purifies and
enriches tho blood, and through it
cleanses and renews the Whole sys
tem. Even Lung-scrofula (known
as Pulmonary Consumption) yields
to it, if taken in time and given a
fair trial. It’s guaranteed to bene
fit or cure, in cvety case, or money
paid for it is refunded. Only a
medicine that does what is claimed
for it, could bo sold on such terms.
Uo other medicine, besides the
“Discovery” has undertaken it
So positively certain is it in its
curative effects as to warrant its
makers in selling it, ns they are do
ing, through druggists, on trial!
It’s especially potent in curing
Totter, Salt-rheum, Eczem.v, Erysip
elas, Boils, Carbuncles, Sore Eyes,
Goitre, or Thick Neck, and Enlarged
Glands, Tumors and Swellings.
Great Ealing Ulcers rapidly heal
under its benign iufiucuco.
HOW AN AUNT WAS FOUND.
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.

A Ln>t Chilli Whose Knowledge of
ISotMiiy (.’Mine Into Good Play.
Colonel \V. D. Moore tells o story which
would, could it be given in print us Mr.
Moore tells it, produce a great effect.
Ex-Sheriff Cluley was accosted a day or
two since at the corner of Sixth street
and Liberty avenue by a little tot, a girl,
too young to talk plainly, who pulled at
his coat and asked “Do 'oo know Aunt
Tatier
.Somewhat surprised, Mr. Cluley re
plied that he oould not say unless he
knew “Aunt TatieV last name. The
child opined that the wanted party
didn't have any last name: she was “dist
Aunt Tatie.” The little one then ex-
plained that she was lost, and she was in
great distress, her lips quivering so that
ut times she could scarcely speak.
Mr. Cluley thought with all his might
fora few moments, when <tn idea struck
him and he asked the child for a descrip
tion of his aunt. The little maiden re
plied that “Aunt Tatie” was rather tall
and wore nastuitiunj flowers in her bon
net.
Now, Mr. Cluley would h::rd!y stand
a creditable examination in 'ootany. Ele
knows cabbages from potato vinea, and
knows the nasturtium when he sees it
on the table in the shape of a pickle, but
to save bis soul he conld not tell what
its flower was like. Again he rubbed
bis dome of thought until be rubbed
into it afresh suggestion and acted upon
it at once. Accosting a lady who was
passing, he asked her if she knew a nas
turtium flower when she saw it. She
was at first disposed to resent the ques
tion as an impertinence, when Mr. Clu-
ley hastened to explain, and begged her
to take an observation and ascertain
whether there were any ladies in the
neighborhood with that familiar flower
in their bonnets.
The lady glanced into several milli
nery and dry goods stores, and finally
called out that she had discovered a
lady with a bonnet bearing the flower
wanted. She pointed her out, and im-
tnediately the little one cried out joy
fully. “That’s Aunt Tatie.”
“Aunt Tatie" was disposed to be cross
with her charge for wandering away
from tiie spot she had designated to wait
until her aunt did some shopping, but
Mr. Cluley’s feelings were aroused, and
he wouldn’t hear the little one scolded.
Instead be proceeded to reprimand the
woman for her thoughtlessness in leav
ing her charge exposed to the danger of
being kidnaped.
“Aunt Talie” had become so interested
in her shopping that she 1 had forgotten
to note the flight of time. Had the little
one not been bright enough to recollect
the name of the flower in the bonnet she
would probably have been crying her
eyes ont, a guest at the central station,
and her aunt would have been frantic.—

Clilldl.1i Faith.
An example of childish faith, of a kind
a dnll age wears away, was seen the
other day. A little boy was sitting in
the yard of an old country homestead:
on either side of him sat a huge dog, pa-
llent and loving. The sun shone down
scorchingly on the trio, and its rays were
uncomfortable. Shading ins eyes with
his carved hand the child looked sky
ward and said, “Putin thatsnn, please.”
The son shone brightly, and the little
fellow repented softly, “Please pnt in
that snn. man up in thesky; it hurts my
held."
Just then over the face of tfie blazing
orb there sailed a white summer cloud,
then another, and the yellow blase
turned suddenly to a hazy, restful gray.
Taming to the dogs, the little boy, pat
ting an arm around the neck of each,
nidi “Did you sse the sun polled in.

Why KyM Are Light and Dark.
An interesting point is the cause of
the different shades of color we see in
the eyes. Ou a certain membrane in the
interior are numerous cells, called "pig
ment” cells. When these are present in
very great numbers they produce that
deep black color of some eyes, and in
proportion to tlieir numbers decrease
also the depth of color, till finally a light
blue is reached. In certain eyes these
pigment cells do not exist at all, being
wanting, indeed, all throngb the system,
hair aud skiu. A person of this descrip
tion is called an albino, and among ani
mals we find a parallel in the ease of
the win to rabbit.—Chambers' Journal.
Inventors Arc Born.
Generally speaking, inventors, like
poets, are bom, not made. Nearly every
hoy can become a good mechanic or
tradesman by diligent stmly and perse
verance, hut not every one can become
a good inventor. If he has a “knack”
for invention, stndy and hard work will
greatly help him, and he stands a fair
chance some day of succeeding us well
in his chosen line ns bis brother play
mates do in business or professional life.
Invention is no longer a spasmodic work,
bnt a legitimate branch of indnstry,
which has its rewards and remunera
tions for those who follow it faithfully.
—George E. Walsh in New York Epoch.
Th.r. Ar. No Blind Fish.
There are many animals iu the world
which pass all their lives in darkness,
never seeing a my of light. Every one
has heard of the blind fishes of the Mam
moth cave. The latter is the biggest of
500 gnat caverns in the United States.
All of them are inhabited by nnmerotu
other sorts of creatures that have no
eyes for vision. Literally speaking than
is no such thing as a blind fish, since the
most sightlssiof tbs finny tribe possesses
visual organs in a rudimentary condi
tion, bnt throngb want of use the optic
ganglia and nerves have broken down
and been absorbed.—Washington Star.
