A New Certain Cure for Piles.

We do not intend to indorse any except
articles of genuine merit; we therefore
take pleasure in recommending to suffer
ers from Piles in any form, a prompt and
permanent cure. The following letters
speak for themselves:
Mrs. Mary G. Tyler, of Heppner, Ore,
entirely cured me of piles from which I
have suffered for years, and / have never
had the slightest return of them since.
Mr.. +. O'Brien, Rock Bluffs, Neb.,
says: The pkg. of Pyramid Pile Cure
entirely removed every trace of itching
piles. cannot thank you enough for il,
The Pyramid Pile Cure is a new, GER
tain, painless cure for every form of piles.
1t is safe, sure and cheap. Any druggist
will get it for you If you ask him.

Placer,s big Cherry Trees.

In some remote age the deep, whirling
waters of the American river at Monte
Rio washed out the rock layers of long
previous geological formation to the
depth of probably 200 feet or more, and
this excavation being filed to half its
depth by alluvial material from the
sides of adjacent hills, formed deposit
over sixty feet deep and soma ten or
twelve acres in present area.
The waters of the American now form
only small stream, the alluvial deposit
that has made the giant cherry tree
growth being ten or dozen feet higher
than the usual current of the deep river
channel. The soil of Hector's cherry
orchsrd has been bored to over sixty
feet in depth without touching bed rock
or rock Of any kind, the alluvial quality
continuing to this great depth. On
about four acres Of this soil black Tar
tartan cherry trees were set in 1862 or
1868 by ancestral relatives of the pres
ent owner, several smaller orchards or
additions having been planted since.
There are $50 large trees that yield 40
boxes, or 400 pounds each, in alternate
years. The trees are kept trimmed Of
all dead wood and lime washed every
season, and are still making vigorous and
healthy growth. The tallest tree is So
feet high, with head from 30 to 55 feet
in width, and over score more Of the
$50 large trees are from 40 to 80 feet tall,
with corresponding width of top growth
so that the excess in heighto the tallest
tree is not very conspicuous.-Country

Haunted ~ a. Adver.,..r.

haunted by an AdverttseM emit
Have you ever been haunted by an adj
vertisement?
l have asked lots of people that ques-
ton and they nearly all tell me that
they have undergone such an experience
at one time or another.
The particular lad" that haunts me is
one containing the picture of a mans
face. A very insipid face it is, too, with
an absolutely perfect black mustache
attached to it. It has grewsome effect,
too, as there is no neck yisibly attached
to the head, and have often wondered
If it would be possible to cut mans
head off SO that none of the neck would
be left on.
This face persists in getting in front
OF me and staring at me with those
meek eyes. No matter which end of an
elevated car 60 in just as soon as ] am
comfortably seated in seat can feel
that face looking at me; and sure
enough there it always is-above the
windows directly across the car. If !
open the advertising pages of naga-
zine that face will be the first thing to
meet my eye. On the street am always
seeing it on the billboards or some ad-
vertising dodger.
You may say that this is all very
easily explained by the fact of the ad-
vertisement being very common one
that everybody would be running
against. On the contrary it is rather of
an uncommon one, but wherever it is ]
am sure to find it. ! don't know what
the article is the face advertises, and l
don't want to. only want to be freed
from the nightmare of that mask.-New
York Herald.

The Story of n Suicide.

remember being called year or two
ago, in my capacity as police reporter,
to tenement on thu west side-I think
it was IN West Thirty-seyenth street
where painter had that day cut his
throat. Standing there by the corpse l
learned from the sobbing widow that
the man was desperate for want of work
He had been on the streets for weeks,
and his children were starving. It hap
pened that had been for just the same
length of time looking for man to paint
my house out in the country, where
painters were scarce and very busy. l
had just made up my mind to advertise
that day. There lay this painter dead
because he could find no one to give him
work, while would have been glad to
pay him more than the wages of his
trade to get him to work for me.
Had there been any means of bring
ing us together to which we would both
naturally have resorted, he would have
been alive and his family self support
ing. Now it seemed certain to become
a burden upon the public.
1t was not the only instance of that
sort by very many had come across
Jacob A. Riis in Forum.

The brusque and fussy impulse of

Because one remedy processes to do
what it never was adapted to do, are

and finer brain to discriminate-to
draw the differential line.

Medical Discovery and DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription have cured

''They say" for a weak system there's
nothing better than the Discovery, !"

is the hope of debiliated, feble, women
who need restorative tonic and brac-
ing nervine. And here's the proof

Peter cooper,s Earthly reward.

New Workers need not be reminded Of
what they owe to good old Peter Cooper,
who began life in earnest when boy in
a hat factory, and who died lamented
by the thousands whom his earnest, char
liable life had blessed. 1t might be said
that Peter Cooper made his money solely
for the good he could do with it. At all
events he lived to great age and saw
the practical benefits that arose from his
well directed efforts. To have died know
ing that a whole city was in mourning
and that great nation was sounding
his praises was in itself reward for
money rightly spent and time consumed.

POINTS FOR cARveRs.

Beef,s heart should be cut n>thin slices
and served hot.
If there is any roe, a part should be
placed on each plate.
A piece of the back and belly of salmon
should 20 to each person.
A guest should say whether he prefers
the roast rare or well done.
The results are in ratio with the skill
used, not the force expended.
Tongue must be cut very thin; the CEN
tral portions are the choicest.
The head pieces of all fish are considered
the most delicate and desirable.
Great care must be exercised in the car
ing Of fish to keep the fakes from fallin4-
to pieces.
A haunch of venison should be carve
in slices down to the bone, from the broati
end upward.
A few drops of lemon juice and littls
pepper and salt improve the flavor of mutt
ton wonderfully.
Have plenty of room upon the platter
and in it's vicinity; a great many nlishaps
are thus prevented.
The sirloin of beef should be cut in thin
slices, a portion of the upper part and the
tenderloin going on each plate. Good
Housekeeper.
