A PLAGUE OF THE NIGHT
Itching Piles and Other Rectal
Troubles Easily Cured by
New and Safe Method
A Remarkable Number OF Cures Made
by the Pyramid Pile Cure.

by the Pyramid ItIc cure.
About one person in every four suffers from
some form of rectal disease, The NEST conf
mon and annoying Is Itching piles, indicated
by warmth, slight moisture and intense un-
,ontrollable itching in the parts affected.
The usual treatment has been some simple
ointment or salve which sometimes give
temporary relief, but nothing like perina-
nent cure can be expected from such super
hcial treatment
Tho 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 protrudng
Tho first application gives instant relief and
the continued use for a short time causes a
permanent removal of the tumors or the
small parasites which cause the intense itch
ing and discomfort OF itching piles.
Many physicians for long time supposed
that the remarkable relief afforded by the
Pyramid Pile Cure was because 1t was sup
pcsed to contain cocaine. opium or similar
drugs but such Is not the case A recent
careful analysis of the remedy showed II to
be absolutely free from any cocaine opium,
or in fact any poisonous. Injurious drugs
whatever.
For this reason the Pyramid Pile Cure Is
probably the only pile cure extensively rec
commended by physicians, because It Is so
safe. so prompt IN the relief afforded and 60
far as known the only positive cure for piles
except surgical operation.
In one yoar the Pyramid Pile Cure has be-
come the best known, the safest and the
most extensively sold OF any pile cure be-
fore the public.
Nearly all druggists now sell 1t at 70 cents
and 81 per package.

proceedings taken by the sovereign com
mander Is simply petty spite work on his
part, wishing as much as possible to cripple
Alpha camp. on account Of its move FOR
separate jurisdiction, an action which should
be beneath the dignity of any officer OF an
organization OF this kind We trust you viii
send In your dues and assessments as before.
The time Is very short now until the con-
vening Of the sovereign camp In March at
St Louis al the session OF which there will
be many gross irregularities and njustices
rectlhed"
The result OF these communications has
been that many of the nonresident members
OF Alpha camp have paid their recent as
sessments and dues into the general Offices
The officers OF the camp are determined that
this shall be stopped at once In fact, they
threaten that II Sovereign Commander Root
does not shortly order these members to
pay their money to the camp they will begin
legal proceedings to enjoin him to do so.
The camp members allege that the object
OF this move on the part OF the sovereign
commander is to break the power OF Alpha
camp, which is becoming too much for him,
especially in this matter Of a separate juris-
dicton The nonresident members number
would considerably decrease the membership
which Is now about 800. Furthermore, the
Alpha camp officers charge that ultimately
the sovereign commander intends to add
these nonresident members to new camp
which will be faithful to him. This new
camp has already been organized and Is called
Camp Loyal. Almost every one of the EN-
ployes in the offices of the sovereign camp
are enrolled. and almost every office in the
camp is filed by one OF these employees.
The Alpha camp people figure out that this
new camp will be used as a counterbalance
to their own Its power will be used par
tlcularly in the fight for a special jursdic
ton. II 1t becomes as large as Alpha camp
the sovereign commander can show that the
sentiment in favor of the separate jurisdic-
ton, as represented by Alpha camp, Is no
greater than that against 1t, as represented
by Camp Loyal.

VIII Mean the Closing of Many of
LcndVilie's Mines.

LEADVILLE, Colo. Jan. 16.-The pulling
of the big pumps in the Maid of Erin mine,
which has been definitely determined upon
by the owners, Messrs. Moffat and Smith
will cause the closing down within a short
time of nearly every large silver. lead and
iron mine in Leadville. The determination
to pull the pumps is due to the refusal of
the owners Of wet mines to agree to con-
tinue to pay for the pumping, which costs
over $1,000 a week. Governor Adams and
Il. V. Debs are both in the camp and are
actively working to bring about an agree
ment between the strikers and mine oper-
ators. Prominent mine owners agree that if
settlement is not reached Leadville will
become a second-rate mining camp.
