For some years past, I was subject to

Constipation is, perhaps, the most seri-

one after another, until at last, incapable
of longer resistance, the helpless being

A TRAVELLERS TESTIMONY.
What He Carried on the Cars.
To Take when Travelling.

Every traveller knows that continuous
journeying on the railroad is very apt to
derange the system In some way. In spite
of springs and soft seats there Is contin-
uous jar and vibration, which acts upon
the nervous system, and produces results
varying somewhat, according to the
strength Of the traveller or his predisposi-
ton to some specific ailment. The most
common consequence OF continuous car
riding is constipation. And this condition
invariably produces headache, and tends
to biliousness. J. J Converse, St. Louis,
Mo-, found a way to avoid the evil effects
of constipation, to which he was subject
when travelling. He carried with him
'the pill that will - cure constipation and
all its sequent sufferings. This is what
he says:
Travelling on the cars tends to consti-
patton with me, but by using Dir. J. c,
Ayers Pills moderately, my bowels are
kept in healthy action. They also prevent
headache."-J. J. CONVERSE, St. Louis, Mo.
DR.. Ayers Pills are good for constipation
under all circumstances and conditions.
They have cured long standing cases after
every other medicine had failed. Rev.

Why RefOrmers do not Reform.

"What is the matter!" asks the
social reformer. Thousands of
devoted men and women are doing
their utmost to make life better.
Why is there so little progresst
Schools abound; so does ignorance.
Churches are multiplied, but
there is at least as much open IN
fidelity and as much practical IT.
religion as there ever was. So
cieties and even parties devote
themselves to needed reforms,
and yet pitiless and disheartening
statistics show that the sum of
intemperance and vice is not di-
minishing. Why is there so much
blowing and sowing of seed, and
the harvests SO scant.
There was convention In this
city during the past week. 1t was
called the Anti-Saloon-Keepers'
League, of which scarcely any
thing was heard. 1t was COM
posed of earnest and intelligent
people. It's purpose was the
abolition of the saloon by legisla-
ton, whereas the saloon, or the
drinking habit of which the sa-
loon is only an outcome, can
never be exterminated by law as
long as the demand for intoxicating
drink exists. When public demand
no longer makes the saloon business
profitable and when the moral
sentiment is against it, it will
cease to exist, and not before.

culties in all reform work is that

would soon be different world to
live in. But the scattered forces
become wasted forces; the million
who want most earnestly a
better lite pull in ten thousand
different ways, while the practical
people, who serve selfish appetites
or ambitions, pull all together one
way. Unquestionably the devoted
people of the Anti-Saloon League
want temperance, just as earnestly
as the devoted women of the
Christian Temperance Union, or
as the clergymen and practical
business men who advocate high
license laws that shall restrain
the traffic. while making it bear
part of the expense it causes So
ciety. But the radical prohibit
tionlsts and their allies solemnly
resolve that everybody is wrong
who tries to accomplish anything
short of party based on prohibi-
ton solely, which ignores all
other issues and sweeps all other
parties away. And so nothing
gets done. The cause of temper
ance reform is actually hindered
instead of promoted. Public
opinion rolls back ward in
mighty tide, burying prohibition
in some states and high license
laws in others.
1t is so with reforms, and with
all agitations and efforts to i'm
prove the social, industrial, po-
litical and even the moral condi-
tions of society. The pope re-
Gently issued another Of a ser IS
of appeals for the union of all the
religious bodies of Christendom in
common cause against the
wickedness there is in the world.
Of course, onl " retrogression is to
be expected, when all the forces
of progress are wasted IN fighting
each other. A prominent Cath
olic clergyman said in Mime
apolis not long ago that more
than a thousand million dollars
every year goes for drink in his
country. Nineteen.twentieths of
the people who drink themselves
realize that less liquor drinking
would mean larger savings, better
workingmen, happier homes,
healthier lives and fewer criminals.
It would seem that any measure
that would cut off half this waste
and half the other and incalcul-
ably more important consequences
ought to command the earnest eff
fort of every decent citizen. But
"No; prohibition or nothing!"
cries the one-ideaed reformer,
and so the cause of progress rolls
back ward.
But what is there strange in all
this when the churches which
profess the same essential faith
multiply their form and organlza-
tions, and buildings and separate
services, each with its separate
cost, it's half filled pews, and, too
often, it's staggering debts, and, as
if to excuse the waste of endeavor,
spend much of their remaining
force in sectarian disputes with
each other2 Or is 1t strange when
friends of prison reform, of mar
riage reform, of industrial reform,
of currency reform, of public ed
ucation, of social purity, spend
their strength rather In contro-
versies with each other about
methods than in definite effort
about nything? Is it strange
when labor reformers who think
secret organization, and others
who think single tax the key to
the millennium, instead of uniting
their siren 9th upon some definite
