A Lady of South Portland Cured by
Drs, Smith and McMuIIen.

Mrs. c., who resides in South Portland, has
been great sufferer for the past eleven years
from piles and for the past ten months has been
constant sufferer. Eleven years ago pile tumors
made their appearance. These tumors at first
were about as.large as an ordinary grape, and at
times would come down, especially when the
bowels were evacuated. She became very much
constipated and as the years went by the pie
tumors gradually increased in size until they be-
came as large as a small coffee cup. AT each
movement of the bowels and when she was on
her feet any length of time they would come
down and il was with much difficulty that they
could be replaced Whenever they came down
they would bleed so profusely and the pain was
so severe that she often experienced great faint
ness which was followed by extreme prostration.
Her face was pale and sallow In consequence of
so much loss OF blood. She complained of a pain
in the small of her back and an all gone feeling
in her stomach and bowels. 1t is very difficult
for any one to describe the sufferings caused by
this wretched complaint The strongest man,
when attacked by piles, will in time become con-
hrmed invalid. 1t is one of those complaints
that gradually undermine the strongest constitu-
lions and thousands of men and women are dying
by inches 'FRONT.'
Mrs. c. had tried every medicine that she
could hear Of and had consulted many physicians,
Dul all 10 no puTpOSe. one Qtclutu W cdii
on Drs. Smith and McMullen, at the United States
Hotel. She did so and received treatment on
the 10Th of September. On the 22nd inst. she
again called upon them, but this time she came to
tell them that she was well. ANY responsible
person desiring to call on Mrs. c. in order to
ascertain full particulars and to learn whether
this statement is true or not, can obtain her full
name and postoffice address by calling on the
Doctors al the United States Hotel.
Drs. Smith and McMullen beg leave TO state
that every case published regarding cures made
by them absolutely true. They also make a
bona fide offer to refund all monies received by
them for curing eny case of piles they undertake
to cure and fall providing the patient carries Out
all instructions given them by the doctors, and, IL
addition, will pay each and every patient whom
they fail to cure, $500 in money. Why suffer
from piles when you have such an offer made
you. Drs. Smith and McMullen are permanent,
located at the United States Hotel, and one Of
both of them will remain in Portland through thu
coming winter. Consultations free from a. m
till p. M, daily, except Sundays. Letters of en-
quiry must contain postage. sept24dtf

That is to say your lungs. Also all your breath
ing machinery. Very wonderful machinery it is.
Not only the larger airpassages, but the thousand
of little tubes and cavities leading from them.
When these are clogged and choked with matter
which ought not to be there, your lungs cannot
half do their work. And what they do. they can
not do WELL
Call 1t cold, cough, Group, pneumonia, catarrh
consumption or any of the family of throat and
nose andhead and lung distractions, all are bad.
All ought to be got rid of. There is just one sure
way to get rid of them That is to take Boschee's

failed you, you may depend upon this for certain.

ceIebratIng che Republican Victory.

Several of the Democratic campaign CON-
panies went to Biddeford last night to cele-
brate the Republican gain of about 200 votes
in that Democratic city at the last election.
Naturally enough the ranks of the companies
were not very full, as many of the members
evidently saw the absurdity of the thing.
The rest Of the boys went for good time.
Ihey bore with them the transparencies
painted for use on election night, but which
were carefully slowed away in Mulhalps
shop, as they were little previous tor that
occasion. The boys last night marched well
and the band played with spirit.
