MI. William Sewers, of Bradford. Ohio,
was cured by SIS. ten years ago of a
severe blood poison, and writes that to
this day no sign of the dreadful disease
has ever returned. He says:
81 had a terrible blood disease which
is considered incurab1e, and was treated
for a long time by the best physicians,
but they did me no good. The disease
seemed to get a 6rmer hold on me, and
attacked my tongue and throat, which
were soon full of vile ulcers.
81 changed doctors several times, and
afterwards took nearly every blood rem
edy on the market, without the slightest
benefit. After five years of treatment
which did me no good whatever, 1 was
induced to try S.S.S. This remedy
proved itself equal to the case, for in q
few months | was entirely cured and my
skin was perfectly clear and smooth.
could hardly believe that the cure was
permanent, but ten years have elapsed
and no sign Of the disease has yet ap-
peared."
SIS. is a sure cure for Cancer, Ca
tarrh, Contagious Blood Poison, Scrof-
MA, Rheumatism, Eczema, and ali other
blood diseases, which other remedies
haye no effect whatever upon. 1t is

FOOD STRENGTH.
1T COMES FROM THE RIGHT TOoD
PROPERLY DIGEsrED.


Food strength is natural strength It is
new strength created strength. That is
it is not stimulation.
The real strength Of your body is your
constitutional strength, your reserve strength.
It is the result Of eating proper food and
digesting IL.
Eating food does no good at all; rather
harm-unless it is digested. SO that every
thing narrows itself down to one proposition:
How is your digestion?
One person in three Of us have indigestion
in some form or another. 1t is not really a
disease. but condition, condition which
may become serious.
We all wish to be strong, and we might all
become so if we digested our food. The loss
Of your strength is serious matter. 1t may
be the beginning Of dangerous disease. 1t
may mean that you cannot go on with your
work.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is an aid to
digestion it is a strength maker. IL makes
your food nourish you 1t makes you strong.
/ 1t relieves at once all the symptoms of acute
/ dyspepsia, tones up the system and creates
/ flesh, energy and strength Taken regularly
/ it will permanently cure indigestion and
make tho weak, thin, irritable, nervous
dyspeptic, strong, fat, hearty and well again.

will do

IMPORTANT TO SUFFERERS.
HOW YOU MAY OBTAIN ALASTING CURE
FOR PILES

No Surgical Operation, No Pain, Trihing
Expense--A Simple, Harmless Remedy
but it Does the Work.
There are some people who have piles as
frequently and regularly as other people have
colds.
Any little bowel trouble will bring them
on, any extra exerton, as in lifting, will
produce them, and in fact will often appear
without any apparent provocation. Piles,
however, are much more serious than cold
as the tendency is always to grow worse
until the trouble becomes deep seated and
chronic, or devolopes into some fatal rectal
disease.
While there are many pile remedies which
give relief, yet there is but one which not
only gives instant relief but at the same time
makes a permanent cure, and that is the well
known Pyramid Pile Cure.
This remedy is composed of simple, harm
less, vegetable ingredients, but combined SO
effectively and act SO promptly and thor
oughly that it cures every form of piles
whether itching blind, bleeding or protrud-
ing.
In long standing cases the Pyramid Pile
Cure has proven to be the only certain cure
except surgical operation, and its ad dvan-
/ tages over an operation are many, as it is
painless causes no delay or interference
with daily occupation and last but not least,
it is cheaper than any surgical operation
could possibly be- costing but dollar a
package at any drug store.
The cases that the Pyramid Pile Cure will
not reach are so few that physicians are doing
away with operations for piles and depending
on this cheap but effective remedy to accom-
plish complete cure, and it never disap-
points except in cases beyond the reach of
medical skill.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by the
Pyramid Drug Co., Of Albion, Mich, and for
sale by druggists everywhere at 80 cents per
package. Each package contains a treatise
on cause and cure of piles, together with
testimonials from every section of this
| country

THE POSTAL CONGRESS.
A Scheme Being Urged For an In
ternational Postal Telegraph,
EoREA WILL JOIN THE UNION.

Minister From That Country Makes
Formal Announcement-No Doubt
ful whether China VIII Enter-The
Orange Free state Has Not Reported.
Washington, May 11.-There were two
significant features of yesterdays de-
velopments of the universal postal con-
gress. The first was the positive an
nouncement from the Korean minister
here, Mr.. Chin Pom Ye, that the little
kingdom would join the union and the
second a decision that was reached
after a long discussion to reduce rates
of international postal orders on
sliding scale basis after reaching
certain amount. This matter does not
affect the United states. The action
will not affect postal orders for less
than 100 francs, or $40, but will cheaper
the cost of all issued for more than
that sum.
A scheme is being urged, and may
be submitted at this congress for re-
port at the next, providing for inter-
national telegraphic service at the
postohices of some Of the leading cities
of the various countries. This already
is i'm operation at some places abroad,
but it's advocates want its operation
made general.
The Korean minister's announcement
puts an end to doubt that has been ex-
pressed as to Korea's intention of en-
| tering, the minister stating explicitly
! that his country would join Ex-Gov-
! ernor Hoyr, counsel for Korea, is at
tending the meetings and advising the
| Korean delegation, and added today
that of course that country would re-
serve the right to refuse adhesion un-
| less the proceedings Of the congress are
entirely satisfactory.
Despite positive announcements from
Pekin some months ago, there is some
| doubt now as to China's joining the
/ union, though it's delegates are in at
| tendance, but without a vote. Orange
/ Free State, also, has not been heard
from The delegations from Bulgaria
| and Roumania made a proposition for
| the adoption of the franc basis for all
postal orders, and many of the Latin
countries supported this. France,
/ Greece, Belgium, Italy and Spain were
among them.
England and Germany and other
countries opposed this at some length
and finally France announced that that
country would not insist upon the prop
osition, as it recognized it might be in
convenient, though recognizing the
compliment to its monetary system. 1t
was the general sentiment that the
present scheme, the basis of payment
being in each case that of the stand
ard of the issuing country, should be
continued.

London, May 1.-According to dis
patch to The Daily News from st.
Petersburg a terrible crime, the result
of superstition, has been committed at
TirespoI, in the government Of Kherson,
where are a number of hermitages in
habited by sectarians. Recently II of
the hermits disappeared, and it was be-
lieved that they had emigrated in fear
of the impending day of judgment. But
a hermit named Kowalind has con-
fessed that he walled them up alive in
response to their earnest entreaties that
they might receive the martyrs crown.
The police examined the spot and veri-
fed the confession.
