But they make a terrible mistake. There is no more fruitful source of death than constipation. And the evils it ways brings, cause the most agonizing tortures.
Constipation paralyzes the muscles of the bowels, which are then unable to per- form their duties.
Foul, decaying waste matter lies in the bowels, instead of being expelled I causcesirritatior, inflammation and death
Again, with such matter decaying in tne bowels, the liver and kidoevs become diseased, the blood is poisoned, heart dis- ease and death result.

THE DAILY EXAMI
ORIGIN OF THE BICYCLE.
Be Traced as Far Back as the
Seventoeath Century.
Ya St. Nicholas ‘rank H. Vizetelly kas told ‘‘The Story of the Wheel,’’ tracing tbe evolution of the bicycle. Mr. Vizetelly says:
lt bas been often said that ‘‘to trace the origin of tke bicycle we must go back to the beginning of the century,” and as this has not been denied it is probably true. I sball try to show that the bicycle grew from experiments in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, and that the celerifere, first invented in 1690, was the earliest form of the “safety’’ of today. ‘he first attempts to ride wheels date back as far as the fifteenth century. True, the machines then made were crude, clumsy and im- perfect, yet they deserve mention, for they were a distinct step in the history of the wheel. The first of these was a heavy carriage driven by means of ropes attached to and wound round its axle tree. To the other end of the ropesa pole was tied, and this pols was used as a lever in front of the vehicle, and by this means it was slowly drawn for- ward.
Little was done in the century fol- lowing, yet in the ‘‘Momoirs of Henry Fetberstone”’ it is told that a Jesuit missionary named Ricius, who was traveling down the (Ganges,
It May
having missed a boat that plicd at regular in- tervals botween points he was to visit in his journey, made up for lost time by building a small oarrizge propelled by levers. Because so few details are told, the truth of the author’s account has been doubted or discredited by many.
In one cf England's older churches— St. Giles’ at Stoke Pogis—is a window
wooden ‘‘wheel.’’ At the sides, in sep- arate panels, as if to fix the date of the design, stand two young men attired in Puritan dress, one playing the violin, the other, with hands in his pockess, smoking a pipe. Is it from this desien that the first thonght of the hobby
+I + Pave “7 +o)? horse of other Cays was taken?
Before the Royal Academy of Sciences, in it€5, Czanaim read a paper describ-
ing a vebicie driven by the pedaling of a footman, who stood in a box bebir~ and rested bis hands on a ber level wit’ bis chin attached to the back of an
| awning ebeva the rider in the comver- ance. ‘This may prove that Petber- stone’s account was. not untrue. OZza-
nam ’s veliclo was followed by ancthcr, built on a somewhat similar plan, by an Englishman named Ovenden about 1761, for a description of tie machine then appeared in The Universal Maya- zine. The vebicle was said to be ‘‘the best that has hitherto been invented.”’ The distance covered ‘‘with ease’’ by this rude vebicle is stated to bave been six miles au hour; with a ‘‘peculiar exertion,’’ nine or ten miles. The steer- ing was.done with a pair of reins.
Perfectly Cured
Weak and Low Spirited — Nervous Prostration—Appetite Poor and Could Not Rest.
‘*T take great pleasure in recommending Hood’s Sarsaparilla to others. It has been the means of restoring my wife to good health. She was stricken down with an attack of nervous prostration. She suf- fered with headaches and her nerves were under severe strain. She became very low spirited and so weak she could only do a little work without resting. Her appetite was poor, and being so weak she could not get the proper rest at nigbt. She decided to try Hood’s Sarsaparilia, as we had heard it highly praised, and I am giad to state that Hood’s Sarsaparilla has perfectly cured all her ailments.” G.

TH OMAN,
A TRICK THAT ENRAGED HER SLEEP- ING CAR COMPANIONS.
YW SELFISH W
Lu AS
She Emerged the Pink of Perfection, While the Other Women Barely Man- aged to Get Their Hats on Straight Be-
fore Leaving.
A sleeping car which arrived in New York numbered eight women among its passengers, and cne of them displayed wisdom which made the other seven ber enemies. She was a prim looking, mid- dle aged woman, and she had attracted attention the previcus night by the busi- pesslike way in which she ordered ber aupper. It was evident that she had traveled on a sleeping car before and from their nervousness it was quite slear that the otber women were novices in night traveling and that they were anticipating great discomforts. It was not until the morning, however, that the wise woman proved her wisdom as well as her selfishness.
Two hours before tha train was dne in New York she left ber berth and dis- appeared in the end of the car. This sleeping car, like others of its class, had fonr wash bowls for men with large mirrors over them and only one wash bowl] for women, in a room so small that two women could not stand in it at the same time. Half an hour after the wise woman arcee the other women in the car began to stir around and four of them went at the same time to com- plete their toilets. The wise woman still occupied tbe room and they sat down to wait. Half an hour passed and still the wiee woman didn’t appear. The men in the car had become inter- ested in the comedy, which promised to develop into a tragedy. They had al- ready completed their toilets without interfering with one another.
‘*This is an imposition,’’ said a big ywoiman whose hair was disorderly, ‘‘and fam going to investigate.’’
> be disepreared, and the other pas- senyzers beard ber voice, first mild and then loud am] angry, but the responses sf the wise woman could not be heard.
‘“What do you suppose that creature ig doing,’’ caid the big wowan, when sie returned. ‘‘Why, I never heard apytbhing like it. Here we are witbin an honr cf New York and not one of us bas had en opportunity to wash her face and that woman inside has a little alcohoi lamp going and sbe is deliber- ately curling ber bair. She should have some sense of devency. I'm sure she is old enough.’’
This information cast the other wom- eu into the deptbs of despair, and as the train eped cn one of them, the youngest woman in the car, began to cry. Her woe was greater than that of the others because a certain young man had prom- ised to meet her at the station, and she would not bave him see ber as sbe then looked for the whole railroad. The men in the car evidently thonght that she was good to look at just as she was, but nove of them knew her, and this in- formation could not be conveyed to her. A delegation of two women was sent to compromise with the wise one who was curling her bair, and they returned in disgust.
‘‘Sho says that sho is going to com- plete her toilet before she comes out,’’ said cnc of them. ‘‘Sbe is curling ber bair all over. I asked her if she wouldn’t please just curl itin front and then put ber hat op. The rest wouldn’t show, you know. She said she would attend tothe curling without any as- sistance from me. This is simply dread- ful. I’ll never ride in a slesping car again. It is an imposition te have only a little bit of a cubby hole reserved for women, while the men have all the room they need. I’m going to sue the road.’’
An indignant discussion followed, and just asthe train was pulling into New York the wise woman made her appearance. Conscious that not a single flaw could be found in her toilet, she ignored the angry glances of the other women. It was too late for them to make elaborate toilets, end the men withdrew from the smoking rogm, s0 that they might at least use the mirrors to set their hats on straight. They trailed after the wise woman as she left the car, and if angry glances could have stabbed ber she would bave become a coroner’s case right on the platform.
‘This isn’t the first time that I have geen such an exhibition,’’ said a com- mercial traveler who had been in the car, ‘‘and really I don’t blame the wise woman atall. Sbe simply showed her experience. The fault is in the con- struction of the car, and it is a short- sighted policy to make them so incon- venient for women. It takes a woman
- longer to dress than a man, and I be-
lieve that if the car builders would sac- rifice the space occupied by a section or two and put in wash bowls for women more women would be willing to ride in sleeping cars. As it is, the average woman would rather stay at home than make a trip that involved a night ride.”’ —New 107« Sana.
