AMERICAN HUMOR. As Furnished by Our Exchanges. The Presidential Electors of Connecticut cast their ballots in ex-Lieutenant Governor Sumner’s silk hat, and he now talks of pre senting it to the New London Historical Society. Ella Wheeler Wilcox says she goes to sleep “drapedin a soft, luxurious gloom” The gloom is all right, Ella, but cold weather is coming on, and you had better guard against sickness by putting on two or three more glooms or a blanket. —Boston Post. Sitting Bull is now so far advanced, in aesthetics that he is brought to believe the napkin to be the basis of cividzation, and when he comes to the dinner table he care fully spreads his napkin on his chair and solemnly sits down on it. A young girl has just died in the asylum at Hamburg who possessed the peculiar gift > of changing the color of her hair according to the state of her mind. This, however, is nothing remarkable. Auburn hair often turns to a fiery red when the fair owner’s husband comes home late from the club.— Philadelphia Call. Mr. H. B. Russel, (Savannah, says : “Like every one living in the South during the summer months, I have been subject to ma larial fevers. Took Brown’s Iron Bitters as a preventative and found it a success, also rind it an excellent tonic.” An Exploded Boom. A long, lank, lean and chronic Anti-Potash Boom met the new, fat and saucy Atlanta Big Bold Boom on a hot, sultry day. “Who are you?’’ asked the B. B. B. Boom. “I am the old Anti-Potash Boom,” was the sad reply, as the perspiration rolled down, and it leaned heavily on the B. B. B. Boom “Don't lean on me,” said the B. B. Boom,” “I may look strong, but I am quite young only 11 months old, and am growing rapidly, and am mighty weak in the knees. 1 am doing the work which you have failed to do, although you ase 50 years old. You are old and tough and rich, and don’t require sup port. But what causes you to look so thin of late?” “Well, I hardly know,” replied the Anti- Potash Boom. “Myphysician tells that memy abilities have been over-rated, and that while trying to whip out all opposition by boast arid brag, that 1 have only proven my ina bility to cope with what he calls my supe riors. Old age is also creeping on me—having fought near 50 years before anyone knew I was living—and now I am unable to perform feats that others are doing. I am collapsed: my friends have turned against me and call w me names: and, oh, Lordy, how sick I become at the very sight of B. B. B. Hold my head while Idle.” ATl,anta, June 5,1884. Blood Bam Company: I take pleasure in making the following statement: For four years I have been a great sufferer from Malarial Blood Poison, and for six months have had Rheumatism to such an extent that I was forced to use crutches a por tion of the time, and could not raise my left, arm to my head. I used all the leading Blood Remedies of the day, besides the attention I of several first-class physicians, all withou benefit. I became quite feeble and emaciated, having very little appetite and poor digestion. Calling at your office one day, I secured two bottles of B. B. B. and commenced its use at once, and before one bottle had been used, I felt a most wonderful change. Two bottles have given me almost entire relief. Rheuma tism relieved and can use my arm as good as ever; cured the neuralgia in my head and all malarial poison is being rapidly relieved, and I feel better than I have for six years. To tell you the truth, I have never used such a won derful medicine in all my life, as the effects have been magical. It has acted as a splendid tonic, gave a good appetite and imparted quiet slumbers. I cheerfully recommend it as a quick remedy. W. P. MCDANIEL. THE greater portion being heavily wooded with Pine, Oak and Hickory, and the balance consisting of rich Rice, Cotton and Corn land, located about TWENTY MILES FROM SAVANNAH. Are offered for sale. The timber on this tract has never been “saw-milled” or “boxed,” and being of virgin growth is very valuable to either mill men or turpentine getters. The products of this land, which have amounted to 45 bushels of rice, a bale of cot ton and 40 bushels of corn to an acre, can be marketed at a minimum cost for freighting. S? EUD BI m TRAKSPORTATIOI The Improvements in the way of dwell ings, barns, rice mill and machinery are sub stantial and ample.
