THE aMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECOltDER: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1891. UX»UtXTJ69° As good as nets —that’s the condition of liver, stom ach and bowels, when Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets have done their work. It’s a work that isn’t fin ished when you’ve stopped taking them, cither. It’s lasting. They cure, as well as relieve. And it’s ' all done so mildly and gently 1 There’s none of the violence that went with tho old-time pill. One tiny, 6ugar-coatcd Pellet’s a gentle laxative — threo to four act as a •cathartic. Sick Headache, Bilious Headache, Constipation, Indiges tion, Bilious Attacks, and all de rangements of tho stomach and bowels, are prevented, relieved and pared. As a Liver Pill, they’re un- equaled. They’re purely vegetable, perfectly harmless — tho smallest, cheapest, and easiest to take. 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. Can you ask more? That’s tiiu veculiar plan all Dr. Pierce’s medicines are “old on. AFTER THE STARTER. DEATHBED SCENE DESCRIBED BY LOUIS HARRISON Wm a Dying Truck ‘Tout.** and H*» Imagined He Mad “« Copper Lined Cluch'* to Play on the Track That Day and No Time to Lomi. This is the way with the Ball corset: II 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.

I nave Herniated about giving to print the following true story ot a deathbed neene winch occurred in this city 1 bad tlic description directly from the doctot in attendance He has lately left New York to continue his profession else where. and I am constrained to tell the story as lie described it. suppressing all names The snow and sleet dashed through the death chilling atmosphere in wild waves The wind moaned a dirge among the telegraph wires A solitary hackman. driven from Ins Seat by the warring elements, had ensconced him sell inside his mournful looking vehicle and tapped u|)on the frost covered glass to attract the attention of belated night owls Winter in Its cruelest phase was upon ns. In a dingy looking bouse on Thirtieth street a young man weak and emaciated tossed restlessly upon a bed. He was a race track tout, and the great mental strain he had lieen subjected to for years in naming sure winners had left him an absolute wreck His sunken cheeks, his eyes ablaze with fever and his corpselike pallor all deuoted that he had but a few short hours to live. A professional nurse, with that cold, bos- pital stretcher expression they all pos- sat in a corner of the darkened room and whiled away the time by figuring how tlie undertaker wonld mam to get tile coffin around tiiat narrow turn in the stairs The doctor had been summoned, and when he rang the bell the tout waved Ins bony arms aloft and shrieked •They're off I Tenny in a walkl Tenny gets all the money, and Salvator won’t lie one. two. six!" TIIK TOUT'S CINCH. He fell back on the bed exhausted os the doctor entered the room The phy sician removed his greatcoat and the nurse shook the rain anil snow from it “Doctor, this is a dreadful night. I suppose yon are wet through?' The tout regained consciousness and muttered: "The truck will tie heavy to morrow. and I've got a copper riveted, lead pijie. copyrighted, air tight cinch. Firenze in the umd—she swims in it— She can make the pace so hot that the truck will be dry before she does the find quarter.’ Tlie doctor approached the bed, and touching tlie patient's pulse said. “How do you feel?” "Well. IT! tell you." lie replied, "just bow I feel about this. The Dwyers sta ble is next to ours, and they tell me everything. Phil told me this morning that Blackjack would win in a horrible canter You see. the party that owns him wants to make a hogkilling, and no one knows that he's out for the dust." Turning to the uurse the doctor in quired, “Have yon notified his friendsof his condition?" The tout started up and yelled: “Of course I havel I want to let 'em all in ou the ground floor. Why, it's a little sure money. I saw him tried at daylight this morning. He made the first quarter in 0:31 f. the second in 0:07. ami the third was so fast that It broke my stop watch nnd loosened three of my teeth ’ How cun be lose it? Why, it's jnst like fulling through the roof of a mint." The doctor looked very serious nnd said. “He will be dead in an hour." LOST BY S BISKATH. "Oh, no, be won't," the tout sneered. 'There's not a dead one in the bunt. If any of 'em were stiff I’d know it. 1 tell you, Cluckjuck is full of Tabasco sauce, and he'll leave all them other plugs at the post Why shouldn't he? Do you know bis pedigree? Blackjack is out of Dark Lantern, by Blackwell's Island, and he's a bora cracker." The doctor felt his pulse again and sighed, “I can do no more; I must bo going." The tout caught his arm and. drawing bis head dowu closo to the pil low. whispered: “After the Bluckjock race meet me in the paddock. If you win I’ve got to give fifty dollars to the trainer, twenty-five to the jockey and twenty to the stable boys. PU put wbat’s left on the next race, and if the horse wins, you're in on it So meet me iu the paddock and I'll cash your ticket." The doctor took the dying mu..‘s baud and said, “Uy poor boy, are you pre pared to meet the Great Judge?" The tout gasped. “I don't want to meet the judge; tiie man Pip after is the starter.” The physician pressed his attenuated band, and, as the moisture gathered in bis sympathetic eyes, said, “Now turn your face to the wall, my boy. and go to if cep." “I will," tho tout muttered. “I’ll get next to the rail, so that when 1 turn the corner they can't foul me. Here's a telegram I just received from the owner. There’s 60 to I on Blackjack; get it qnick before they cut it down. I'll win"— Bat he didn't.
