NOT A SICK DAY
For Over Thirty Years!
BESTJXT OF USING
AYER'SPILLS
"Ayer's Cathartic Pills for over thirl
.years have kept me in good health,
never having had a sick day in all that
time. Before I was twenty I suffered
almost continually as a result of con
stipation from dyspepsia, headaches,
neuralgia, or boils and other eruptive
diseases. When I became convinced
i m
that nine-tentlis of my troubles were
caused by constipation, I began the use
of Ayer's Pills, with the most satisfac
tory results, never having a single
attack that did not readily yield to this
remedy. My wife, who had been an
invalid for years, also began to use
Ayer's Pills, and her health was quickly
restored. With my children I had no
ticed that nearly all their ailments were
preceded by constipation, and I soon
had the pleasure of knowing that with
children as with parents, Ayer's Pills,
if taken in season, avert all danger of
sickness." H. Wettstkin, Byron, 111.

Where Bard Times Do Not Pinch.
Six cars of fruit were shipped last
week from The Dalles. Another will
"leave tonight and two more Wednesday.
'Prices so far have been very satisfactory,
' even the local market ruling high. It
is very fortunate our interests are so di
versified, as a continual stream of money
'irora the East is converted to us the
- year round. . Beginning with strawber
ries, the fruit shipping season does not
close till nearly strawberries again, for
winter apples and pears are shipped
until the middle of April. Other im
mense interests which attract capital are
wool and stockraising, which reaches
into the millions -annually in Wasco
and surrounding counties of which The
Dalles is the outlet. Fishing, mining,
lumbering and general farming add
their quota to the business of a common
wealth, prosperous even in these pinched
and panicky times, by sheer virtue of
our raising and possessing so much
natural basic wealth. This leads us to
again observe that oar fruit is the best
in the United States, proving it by two
. cotemporaneous facts. At the world's
fair of 1893 Oregon took first premium
And at the Oregon state fair the same
year Wasco county also took first pre
mium for the state.

LI HUNG CHANG.
Liberality of the Views of the Chinese
' Statesman.
It is claimed that notwithstanding
Li Hung1 Chang: has shown some liber
ality of views toward modern improve
ments and education, he is at heart a
hater of foreigners, and has an abiding
faith in Chinese institutions and meth
ods of government. He is,' it is true,
a great admirer of Confucian philos
ophy, and remembering' the enduring
history of his people we can hardly
'.vonder at his devotion to the institu
tions which have made that history
possible. When we call to mind the
ejsperience China has had with certain
western nations, it might not be con
sidered strange if his attachment to
foreigners was-not very ardent; but
in all his public life, says John W. Fos
ter in Century, . his conduct shows
that he feels the need of foreign aid,
and is disposed to give it proper wel
come, and of all Chinese statesmen he
is the most liberal-minded and free
from prejudice. He is far from claim
ing that the present system of govern
ment is perfect. He has, in fact, urged
upon the authorities at Peking two im
portant changes which look to a reform
of the most serious defects in the sys
tem; to wit, the withdrawal from the
viceroys of provinces of powers which
should be exercised only by the imperial
government, and such a change in the
method of admission to the public serv
ice as will liberalize the examinations,
and make fitness rather than scholar
ship the test. There are other changes
which he would gladly bring, about if
he had the power; but, as he confessed
to Marquis Ito, "China is hampered by
antiquated customs which prevent de
sirable reforms."
