THE COMPLIMENTS OF THE SEASON

Some princeIx salaries.
From Success.

It is estimated that 1900 men in New
York city alone get salaries of $4,000 a
year or more apiece
John A. Mccall, president of the New
York Life Insurance Company, has never
been engaged in a single business enter
prise on his own account, and yet he is
earning $4,000 a year. Thirty years ago
he began his struggle with the world as
a clerk at Albany, ". Y, on salary of
$50 month.
1t is perhaps true that the eminent law
yer, Joseph II. Choate, receives $3.50, 600
year in his business. the largest amount
earned by any lawyer in the United States,
yet he was willing to abandon his entire
practice to go into the United States Sen
ate, for a salary not one-fortieth as large
as the gross amount obtained from his law
practice.
John e. Parsons gets a salary of $4,000
year as attorney for the sugar trust.
When he merged the different refneries
into one big concern he received a fee of
$4,000. the largest single business fee we
know Of
1t is said that Chauncey Depew gets
salary twice as large as that of the Pres
ident of the United States. When he was
in private practice he did not make one
tenth part of what he gets from the New
York Central and Hudson River Railroad
Company. His connection with the Van
derbilts has undoubtedly given him OPP
portunities for making money outside
which he never would have had independ-
entity. This is true with many who work
on salaries.
Large salaries are not confined to rail-
road and insurance companies. Many
clergymen become wealthy. DR.. John
Hall, pastor of the richest congregation
In New York has a salary of $4,000 q
year This only represents part of his
income, for his fees, as in the case of
many other clergymen, are very large for
tying nuptial knots, for christenings. etc.
Dr. Halls income is estimated as high as
$50, 600 year.

across his head breaking his neck and
causing death almost instantaneously
Lem Foster, the driver of The wagon,
was placed under arrest, pending an in
vestigation. he protested that he knew
nothing of the accident until a passer-by
who saw him lying in the street, called
his attention to him. The parents of the
little fellow Vere both at home when he
was brought in, limp and lifeless, by a
neighbor. who picked him up out of the
street, and the shock made them almost
frenzied with grief.

COAL MINERS OFF COLORADO.
Strike Threatened fer Jan. 10 Unless
Wages Are Advanced.

Strike Threatened fer Jan. 10 Unless
Wages Are Advanced.
Denver, Col, Dec. 29.-Trouble is brew.
ing in the northern coal fields. The oper-
atOrs have received notice from the min
ers that unless their wages are increased
before Jan. 10 they will close down every
coal mine in Lafayette Louis
Vile, Marshall, Erie and the
smaller camps. The operators say
that the schedule demanded is an advance
of from 10 to 40 per cent The present
scale runs from 20 to 80 cents per ton for
mining with machines and 20 cents for
pick work. According to the way the OPP
orators, figure it. the scale demanded
would ybe from So to 60 cents with ma
chimes and from so cents to 81 for pick
work.
The operators say that the present
wages, together with the expenses of pro-
duction, leave them very small margin
and they declare that if the miners insist
on the higher scale, the operators will be
forced to close down the mines
There are 1850 men in the territory who
would be thrown out of work in the event
of strike.

ONE IN EVERY FOUR.
One Person in Every Four suffers
From Piles.

About one person in every four suffers
from some form of rectal disease. The
most common and annoying is itching
piles, indicated by warmth, slight mois-
ture and intense, uncomfortable itching in
the parts affected.
The usual treatment has been some
simple ointment or salve which sometimes
give temporary relief, but nothing like
permanent cure can be expected from such
superficial treatment.
The only permanent cure for itching
piles yet discovered is the Pyramid Pile
Cure, not only for itching piles, but for
every other form of piles, blind, bleeding
or proUuding. The first application
gives instant relief and the continued use
for a short time causes a permanent re-
moval of the tumors or The small para
sites which cause the intense Itching and
discomfort of itching piles.
Many physicians for a long time sup
posed that the remarkable relief afforded
by the Pyramid Pile Cure was because
it was supposed TO contain cocaine, opium
or similar drugs. but such is not the case.
A recent careful analysis of the remedy
showed it to be absolutely free from any
cocaine, opium, or in fact any poisonous,
Injurious drugs whatever Sold by drug
sists at so cents per package
