THE AMERICUS DAILY TJMES-RECOKDER: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1891 COHXJW6HT 1830 It's a tip that you need help, when pimp] ;', blotches, and eruptions begm to ap pear. Your blcwd needs looking after. You’ll havo graver mattris than pimples to deal with, if v m neglect it. Dr. Pierce’s Golilen Medical Discovery prevents and cures all diseases and disorders caused by impure blood. It invig orates the liver, purifies the blood, and promotes all the,bodily func tions. For all forms of scrofulous, skin and _ scalp disease, and even Consumption (which is really lun<-- scrofula) in all its earlier stages, it is a certain remedy. It’s the only one that’s guaranteed, in every case, to benefit or cure, or tho money is refunded. It’s a matter of confi dence in one’s medicine. It is tho cheapest blood-purifier , sold , til rough druggists, because you only pay for Che good you got. Can .you ask more? Tho “ I'iscovory ” nets equally well a!l tin gear round. 3 ST0NE fence.

But we had tuirilly jin-1 ) look over the old man’s ii.uiiliw'.rlt n"d pronoanfie it gisnllieforo - -I “truck it nnd scattered the .ailst.fer-i '.-ml neighboringtownships. Hit!" I I' liietaiitly Braun then decided .'1 fmli'w my esiimplo ami fence his jI ii'i- wiiii li rh wire. He put in place i>f tin- mil t'-nco that wus a wire fence wliit-ii t-oiiM scarcely be beaten. It bad l.-ii'gf. snwi-d postsand five heavy wires, ami “li'itiM have lasted a lifetime. It might 11avi* hone so, perhaps, lint for an iniliirliiiiiit.- occurrence. One afternoon early in November another blizzard ( a ring along, pulled up every blamed fence post, ctirefally wrapped a few niih-'of wire around them and sailed oil toward Chicago with the whole outfit. When the liedge was destroj-eil the old Dutchman merely sighed; when the rail ient-i- went he said something hulf niiih-r his lireath; when the wire fence followed it he swore. Then he snt down, lighted his pipe and fell into a brown study. Bright anil early the next spring he began another fence. It was somethin entirely new for onr country, but it was a dandy ami no mistake. The old man set his hired hands to work plckin up stones and liauliu bowlders together, and in a few weeks h.e had collected enough of ’em to build a stoue wall. It was as strong as stono and cement could muke it, and was four feet wide and three feet high. Out) afternoon, just after it was completed, Braun was pofutin out tti tnu the fine points of his new wall, when we noticed a black dond over ngiu the western horizon. “There's trouble over thar, old man,’’ said I. “That blamed tiling is jest rollin up its sleeves and spittin ou its hands and gettin ready for business. It'll lie along here, too, in about two minutes." ‘•Veil, let it coom." Then, as there wasn’t anythin else to do, we sat down to watch it. It cams zippin along, twistin off trees close to the gronnd or pullin 'em by the roots, enttin the prairie grass as clean as a mower could have done it nnd sweepin a clean path. When it reached that wall it just stopped a moment ns if to look it over, aud I could swear I heard a chuckle. Then it stopped and caught hold of the edge of the masonry. It held together well, but np it came, slowly and steadily. Jest when the wall had been turned half over the blizzunl suddenly gave a groan, tost its grip nnd loosened its hold. The wall settled down upon its side and the blizzard jumped over it and went howl- in oat of sight. “Velir said Braun jubilantly. “Vot I told yon. Dot fence U a dandy, don't iff It ia von feet higher now as yiefore dot vind coom along.” And be winked the other eye.—Bomb Dakota Cor. Chi cago News. The Wonsan with the Fan. The woman who uses a fan in a public assembly must see, if she has any ade quate perception of what she is doiug, that five-sixths of the air carried by this implement of tortnre is thrown into the neck of the gentleman or lady who sits in front of her.' She may have read in worka of physiology, and she most have seen very often In the newspapers, that pneumonia and kindred diseases are often the result of such careless me of the fan; hot she would not abandon the haUt or forego the alight relief that lit tle waft of air brings to her cheek to save the life of the whole assembly. We have have had a stiff neck (not the moral, bnt the physical kind) for several days following the gratification of one who sat behind us in a church or lectnra room, and we regard the woman with a fan as the ideal picture of supreme ael- fishnem. Men are bad enough, bet a, selfish woman with a fan can take the prize.—New York Journal of Commerce. Nil-rant ■( the Omln anil Romans. The mirrors of the ancient Greeks and Romans were thin disks of bronze, high ly polished nnd usually fashioned with handles, lliongh sometimes they were set upright on stnnds.
