The Frank e. Long Company.

Mondaya Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings, Cresco people turned out in
masses to see their favorite actor and
his talented company.
Monday night was presented "The
Diamond Robber" sensational
comedy, In which the leading role
Peter Grump, a man of brains, is
taken by Mr.. Long in O very accept.
able manner and the entire company
gave good support.
Tuesday evening, Robinson
Crusoe" was the bill, and though not
strong in scope nor calling fol-
advanced acting, was acceptably
presented with Mr.. Long in the title
roll. However the play presented
opportunities for some very clever
specialties by the Makers and by Joe
F. Willard, German comedian, new
acquisition and decidedly good one.
Wednesday night was laughing
night. From the rise Of the curta in
till the close of the play, the audience
was kept In continual roar of laugh.
ter. Too Much johnson was the
play, advertised as the latest comedy
success. and SO it was. Nothing up
proaching it has ever been presented
here. Not n character could be i'm
proved upon, and every one was a
comedy part to more or less extent.
Frank Long as young married man,
quite sporty, and a liar Of the first de-
gree was in a role which he took to
perfection. Nelson Gray as the
FrenchDan made things very lovely.
Miss Ashmire played to perfection
the typical mother-in-law, and Phil
Maher as Mr.. johnson could not be
bettered by anyone.
The company are now in Austin
and are working toward Wisconsin
and Michigan where they will play
the balance of the season.

When He Is Suffering With Pile

fort Any Way But One-Pyramid Pile Cure
Will Cure Him, Give Relief ct Once
Never Known to Fail.
just little pain may so distract a
mans mind that it will cost him hun
dreds of dollars. Life is q battle. TO
succeed one needs all his energies and
all his brain force to apply to the
question at hand. Even a corn will
make him irritable, cross, angry-and
an angry man seldom succeeds. The
trifling pain of corn is o pleasant
feeling beside the agoniziny ache OF
piles. That is pain which seems to
pervade the whole body. 1t commu-
nicates itself to all the parts near the
seat Of the trouble and brings on a
heavy, dragging feeling in the peri
neum. Those who have never SO suf-
fered do not know what it means. 1t
racks the nerves, prevents sleep, pre-
vents concentrated thought and
makes a man lose flesh as fast as he
would with virulent fever.
And yet piles are looked upon as a
little thing. They are neglected
allowed to run on from month to
month and year to year. BY and by
comes dangerous surgical operation
Maybe it cures-maybe it kills.
There is only one sure, safe and
quick cure for piles. 1t is the P,ra-
md Pile Cure. 1t is a recent discov-
cry and its properties are such that it
cleanses, soothes and heals the in
flammation at once and with contin-
uel treatment. removes all swelling
and all trace of the disease. 1t Luts
the membranes in healthy, active
condition and cures completely and
permanently.
From G. F. Collins, Garnet; COM
menced using the Pyramid Pile Cure
and my case was SO bad I thought the
remedy was going to fail in my case,
but before l had used two thirds Of
one package I began to feel much
better and can honestly say am en-
tirely cured. 1t is the quickest and
surest remedy I have ever tried or
heard of.
From Josiah Roberts. Port Gram,
N. j.; just ore-quarter of package
Of the Pyramid Pile Cure did wonders
for me and I have lost no opportunity
