Surgical Operations for the
Cure Of Piles ana Rectal
Dircascs.
NO LONGER NECESSARY.
A Medical Discovery Whicl,
will Change The Treatment
Of All Such Diseases,

1t has long been thought not only
by sone physicianf but by people in
general that the common, painful and
exceedingly annoying trouble, piles.
was practically incurable by any other
means than Il surgical operation, and
this belief has been the cause of years
OF needless suffering, because of the
natural dread of surgical operations.
There are many s~alves, ointments
and similar remedies on the market
which afford some relief in cases Of
piles, but the Pyramid Pile Cure, is
the only preparation so far introduced
that can be reliably depended upon to
cure to stay cured, every form of itch.
log, bleeding or prottuding piles.
Mrs. NJ. &. Huxley of COL Mis,is.
s'ppl St, Indianapolis, was told by
her physicians that nothing but a sur.
gical operation costing between seven
and eight hundred dollars could cure
her as she had suffered for Is wears.
yet even in such n case as hers tho
Pyramid Pile Cure accomplished n
complete cure. She says: "I knew
an operation would be death to mo
and tried the Pyramid with very little
hope and it is not to be wondered at
that l am so enthusiastic in its praise"
MAJOR Dean of Columbus, Ohio.
says he suffered for 40 years from
piles and in his case two packages of
the Pyramid cured him.
Mr.. d. j., Reed of South LYONS.
Mich, says | would not take $500
and be placed back where | was bc.
fore | used the Pyramid Pile Cure !
suffered for years and it is now c,pb.
teen monts since | used it and not
the slightest trace of the trouble has
returned.
Tn" r ramid Pile Cure is sold bv
nearly all druggists at 80 cents and
81 per package and as it cantain, No
opium, cocaine or other poisonous
drug can be used with perfect safety.
No one need suffer from piles in
any form who will give this excellent
remedy trial. Made by the Pyramid
Co., Albion, Mich. Any druggist
can get it for you.

LIVE STOCK NOTES.

A cross of Shropshire or Dorset on
a Merino eve makes a good market
lamb.
If you have coal ashes, sift them, and
spread the sif.ings over the floor of the
sheep stables. 1t is next best to plaster
A writer says that it is the food and
not the breed that gives quality To the
lamb. Oh, come of, brother. All the
feed in creation cannot make Merino
lamb equal to lamb of the mutton
breeds. 1t requires both breed and
feed to do the business.-Farmers
Voice.
We think the best way to feed is te
cut it up, corn and stalks together, and
feed in the manger in the stable. A
great deal of good fodder is wasted by
feeding out of doors scattered in yard
and allowing the stock to tramp on it
The silo is another good way to save the
corn and it makes fine feed.
4 wise choice of methods of pre-
pairing and feeding the food has muck
to do in determining profit or loss. The
cheapest production of flesh by horse.
COW or sheep, or of milk, is where all or
the larger part of the food is secured by
the animal grazing in good pasture
Simple methods of preparatf6f are best
as q rule.
