A GREAT REMEDY


Dr. Redmond. n specialist In the study
and treatment Of Piles and rectal diseases,
recently stated that the Pyramid Pile Cure.
the new discovery fer the cure Of piles, was
the most remarkable remedy he had ever
seen or tried In one respect; and that was,
the instant relief experienced in all cases,
no matter how severe. from the moment
tho remedy was applied; this was the more
surprising TO him, because he had carefully
analysed the preparation and no trace OF
opium, cocaine or similar poison could be
detected.
Physicians look with great favor upon the
Pyramid Pile Cure. because 1t Is rapidly
taking tile place of surgical operations and
because 1t is so simple, so easily applied
and contains no mineral or other polsons
so commonly used In pile cures.
Or. Esterbrook reports that the Pyramid
Pile Cure not only cures the various forms
OF Files, but never fails to give immediate
relief on the first application, no matter
how severe the pain or discomfort may be.
People who have suffered from piles for
years are often astonishcd at the instant
relief experienced from the first application.
Another important advantage is the fact
that any one can use the remedy without
detention from business or interference with
daily occupation. Sold by druggists at 90
cents per package. u.

Mannheim form, when the highest score for

Judge WOOIson P"rOnounces Sentence

on Some Convicted Cuiprits.
In the federal court yesterday Judge
Woolson pronounced sentence upon a num-
Der of convicted prisoners. Thomas Rifle
OF Red Oak, who sent an Objectionable let
ter to a young widow and used the mails
to secure Its delivery, was fined $50 and
costs. Sentence was suspended upon pay
ment of the costs, and the man with warlike
name was given three months to secure the
costs.
Clyde Hoskins, a bootlegger, was fined
$3.50 and costs and given a sixty-day jail
sentence. Both, however, were suspended
upon good behavior,
Eddie Pitner, a young man from Adams
county, was given a fine of 5000 and costs
and a jail sentence of 100 days. The SEN
tence was suspended upon the condition
that the young man would refrain from vio-
latlon of the revenue law in the future.
The Quincy, Ia. postofice robbers, Marsh
and Robinson and the two Gale brothers,
are being tried before a jury, the evidence
duplicating all of them being about the
same. The postofice was located in a gro
Gerry store. The place was broken open one
night last summer and a lot OF groceries
taken. Unfortunately for them, the thieves
turned their attention to the postoffice after
they had secured all the plumber they de-
sired in the shape OF groceries and provi-
sions. Money, stamps and registered mail
matter were taken. The town authorities
had made up their minds that the burglary
was .he work OF professionals, who were
supposed to be far on their way to new
fields, and II the robbery of the postofice
had not occurred the culprits would prob
ably not have been detected. The federal
authorities took a hand and after a few
days work In the little village Marsh and
Robinson were arrested, the stolen groceries
found packed away in one Of their houses
and evidence also OF their connection with
the robbery OF the postofiee. A second trip
was necessary to secure evidence enough to
conuSct the Gale brothers with the crime,
but e was obtained with but little difficulty.
The government made a strong case against
the men yesterday. 1t will probably not
reach the Jury before the latter part OF this
afternoon.

The London correspondent Of the Woman's

had been hoped from the conservatives,
since Mr.. Balfour and Lord Salisbury
the measure, their recent action
has probably set back the work for years.

Fancy a hired lullaby! A few
days ago an exchange chronicled the
news that "a new industry for young women
is that of lullaby singing. Girls who are
studying vocal music are now turning their
growing talent to account by going to
nurseries two or three times a week and
singing to the children at the bedtime hour
soft. grooming lullabies. This is in house
holds, of course, where the mother Is busy
with social duties or philanthropic work or
engaged in reform work for women, but
most generally In the homes of the rich.
Even the newest woman admits the in1u-
ence of sweet and correct singing on the
developing mind of the little child. This
new industry may seem an eXaggeration
of detail, but in these days 1t is the trifes
large results.

'ine good qualities than any other cigar
on the market. It's the best shape, best
stock. and best seller because 1t possesses
a mild. rich, fragrant aroma Of such ex-

William Blizzard had a narrow escape
from death yesterday morning. He is a
woodchopper under contract to clear a piece
OF land a few miles south OF the city. While
at work yesterday morning he made a false
stroke. and the axe struck him on the top
OF the left foot. The blow cut clear through
the arch OF the lnstep, s~eyering the arteries
and crushing the bones. He hobbled to the
nearest house, but was almost dead from
loss of blood when he reached there. The
people knew enough about surgery to know
that the mans life depended upon stopping
the flow of blood and bandages were adjust
ed for that purpose until a physician could
be called from Council Bluffs.

0ratciul Women Write Us Letters.

From every corner OF the country
come thankful letters written by those
who have been lifted into cheerful, Wig
orous, healthy strength by DR.. Pieree's
Favorite Prescription.
Thousands on thousands OF women
have been relieved OF the nerve.uagging
drag OF weakness aud pain.
They have been made better wives and
better mothers by having perfect health
restored, and without the humiliating
exposure. Of examinations so generally
insisted on by physicians.
The stereotyped treatment by "local
appiica.ions IS seldom necessary, and
there Is no reason why modest, sensitive
women need submit TO them.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription IS
Of purely vegetable composition and is
perfectly harmless in any condition OF
the system. II exerts a wonderful sooth.
ing, healing and strengthening power
over womaii's delicate organism, II is
an iuvigorating tonic for the whole sys.
ten. and Is almost an infaitthie SPECIFIC
for the peculiar weaknesses, Irregular
ties and painful arrangements OF woman.
To these causes may be traced the
trouble Of tired, nervous, irritable. worm
out women. Careless, edsy.going doctors
frequently treat their women patients for
bilicusness, nervousness, dyspepsia, liver
or kidney troubles, when the real sick
ness Is in the organs distinctly feminine,
and no help can come till they are made
perfectly strong md healthy in both
structure and function which Is brought
about in due time, by the use Of DR..
Piercc's Favorite Prescription.
