When two China-
men fneet, their
way of, saying
“ How do you do? ”
is “How are your
bowels?” It
amounts to the
same thing. If the
bowels are in good
condition the rest
of the system is
pretty sure to be all
right. But when
they are consti-
pated, it has a half-
paralyzin effect on
the rest 0 the body
—and the mind too.
Headaches, dyspep-
. sia, biliousnem,
' nervousness, poor
sleep, weakness, heart palpitation and
gloomy spirits, all come from constipa-
tion. And that isn’t the worst of it: It
lays your system open to all sorts of
serious and dangerous illness.
It isn’t safe to neglect constipation and
it isn’t safe to use dangerous wrenching
carthartics, to overcome it, either. They
leave ‘you worse off than before. What
is needed is a mild natural laxative like
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. They act
surely but without any violence. They
regulate and strengthen the intestines to
do their own work. When the “ Pleas-
ant Pellets” cure you, you are cured.
You don’t become a slave to their use.
Take care the druggist doesn’t give you
something else-he calls “ just as good.”

fl 1,- mm ii. A11 Large Cities.
Science has killed the fire horse. Be-a
fore long the noble hero of a thousand - ’
mad races for life or fiath will be no
more. The automatic fire truck has
come to take his place; and soon every .‘
fire department Of importance in the
United States will be in possessioncf
one of the latest inventions.
The new automatic fire truck will be
in every way a more practical and ef-
fic’ient aid to fire fighters than its more
picturesque predecessor, but ”from an
artistic or sensational standpoint there
will doubtless be many persons who
W'ill regret the passing of the fire horse. _
The inspiring sight of a bare howled '
driver, with loose reins and Slender
whip, urging his three big horses to
greater speed, will give place to the
cool headed motorman, sittingr in the
driver’s seat, increasing or reducing
speed as the occasion may warrant by
the simple turning of a lever, and guid—
ing the apparatus in asimilur manner.
In _appem'ance the' automatic ire
truck does not differ greatly from the
book and ladder truck of tO-day. There
is the same arrangement of ladders
along the body of the truck. the same
footboard for the crew, and the mnni~
pulation of the rear steering gear is the
same. The radical difference is in the
the driver’s seat.
The motive power of this automobile
is what is known as a compressed air
gas engine of continuous running de-
Sign.
The engine which furnishes the mo-
tive power is placed just above the
front axle and directly beneath the
driver’s seat. A system of cog wheels
and levers acts directly betWeen the
engine and the front wheels: in fact,
the engine machinery,'which is very
simple and consists principally of cog
wheels, is located directly in front of,
the engine, almost beneath .the foot-
bonrd of the apparatus.
‘ Extending upward from the machin-
ery, through the footboard, and reach-
ing to aheight a little above the dri-
' arrangement of the front wheels and
ver’s seat, are two levers, which re?
semble those in common use on cable
cars. One of these levers is used for
the double purpose of steering the ma-
chine and as a brake, while the other
lever controls the speed of the engine.
The engine 'is so constructed that
when the driver takes his seat and
grasps the left hand lever the whole
apparatus is ready to start. By sim-
ply drawing the lever toward himself
Elie driver sets the truck in motion. The
cogs ,on' the lever, which work the
wheels, fall into another set of cogs
which we . directly from the engine,
and the start is made. .
A most peculiar feature is found in
the fact that, in order to stop the truck
it is not necessary to stop the engine.
A_ forward pressure on the left hand
lever throws the cogs out of place, and
a pull on the right hand lever applies
the- compressed air brakes. Should
this not stop the progress of the truck
in sufficiently short time, the cogs can
be thrown back into place and the eu-
gine reversed and an entire set of oth-
er brakes applied to the rear wheels of
the truck. ' '
The ”truck can be driven at a speed
of forty miles an hour if necessary and
in order that'it can travel at a high
rate of speed over smooth and Slippery
pavements, the tires of the wheels are
roughened and provided (like a horse's
hoof) with calks or short spikes. This
”Improvement has been found to be
most successful, especialy in turning
sharp curves. ‘ .
Another great advantage of the new
invention is found in the fact that the
» motive power being so completely un—
der control it can be used immediately
for elevating an extension ladder,
is of the greatest import~
ance both in the fighting of fires- and
the saving of human life—New York
