Every traveller knows That continuous

THE END,
Thomas Cooper, the Chartist.

The autobiography of Thomas Coop.
er, the English chartist, is, as Carlyle
would say, altogether human and
worthy" and one of the most fasci-
mating records of a strange and often
stormy career that can be read in any
language. With a vividness that even
Carlyle might envy, it describes the
hard struggle of Cooper's early years
how his poor widowed mother was
tempted to sell her boy to the village
sweep for money with which to pay
the rent of their little cottage; how
he got a smattering of the three RS,
and at Is was apprenticed to a shoe
maker; how he learned by hook and
crook to read four languages, and &C
quired, besides, as much history, math-
ematics and science as made him
prodigy even in the eyes of educated
men, how he became schoolmaster,
then journalist, and at last, in 1910,
flung himself heart and soul into the
Chartist agitation. 1t cost him two
wears in Stafford gaol. Through the
kind offices of Charles Kingsley he was
provided with writing materials. Mix
ing them with brains" he speedily
produced a number of short poems and
stories, a History of Mind" and, most
important of all, vigorous and imagi-
native poem in the Spenserian stanza,
"The Purgatory of Suicides" which
has gone through several editions. 1t
is lust about four years since Thomas
Cooper died, at the age of 81. He had
outliyed his fame, as he had outlived
his Chartism. Indeed, we might say
of him what an American critic said
of Beecher, that, had he died sooner
he would have lived longer"

Francis B. Harlowe, of Atlanta, Ca, fur
nishes a case in point. He writes;
'For some years past, was subject to
constipation from which l suffered in
creasing Inconvenience, in spite of the
use Of medicines of various kinds, until
some months ago, when l began taking
Dr.. ]. c. Ayers Pills. They have entirely
corrected the costive habit, and vastly
improved my general health" - (REv.)
FRANCIS B. HARLowE, Atlanta, Ga.
Constipation is, perhaps, the most seri-
Gus physical evil of to-day. 1t is like the
octopus, that grapples its victim and
fastens its tentac1es on trunk and limbs
one after another, until at last incapable
of longer resistance, the helpless being
succumbs to his frig11tfu1 foe. Constipa-
ton is the beginning of many of the most
murderous ma1adies, the clogged system
becoming charged with poisons that affect
the liver and kidneys, and PROSTATE
the entire being mentally, morally, and
physically. DR.. Ayers Pills will cure
constipation. If you doubt it send for Dr.
Ayers Curebook, free, containing the
testimony of those cured by this remedy.

to the friends round him.
