IT'S WEIGHT IN GOLD.
A NEW DISCOVERY WHICH is WORTH
THAT MUCH
To anyone Af,icted wien Piles.

The Pyramid Pyle Cure, the new,
painless remedy which has been so re-
markably successful in curing every
form of piles and rectal diseases, has
recently been placed on sale at drug
glsts and it is safe to say that when
It's extraordinary merit becomes fully
known, there will be no such thing as
surgical operations for the cure of this
obstinate and common trouble.
Mrs. NJ c. Hinkly, of COL Mississippi
ST., indianapolis, Ind, says: | had
been terrible sufferer from piles for 15
years and no remedies benefited me,
until | saw an advertisement of the
Pyramid Pile Cure; / got a package,
also a package of Pyramid Pills, anu
used both according to directions.
was astOnished at tae immediate RELIEF
obtained and now | honestly believe
the Pyramid to be the only certain cure
for piles.
That you may realize how bad was,
l Will say that | was confined to my
bed and went before the college ply
slclans here, who said my case was
new one to them and wanted seven or
eight hundred dollars to undertake a
cure; the great pain had brought on
rupture, and | knew an operation
would be death to me on account OF
blood poisoning. Nearly everyone here
knows of my terrible suffering from
piles and ! fsal that l cannot praise the
Pyramid Pile Cure enough, ana TIE
pyramid Pills also. My husband will
join me in highly recommending the
Pyramid. My daughter was cured by
one box only. For several years 1
weighed but about 80 pounds, now
weigh $50 and feel in perfect health.
This seems to be the universal testi-
mony of every sufferer from piles wlo
have ever tried the Pyramid; it is the
safest, most painless pile cure yet dis
covered; contains no opiate morphine,
cocaine or any poisonous ingredient
whatever, has a soothing, healing eff
feet from the first application, and the
moderate price places within the reach
OF everyone needing treatment. The
Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by druggists
at so cents and S100 per package and
the Pyramid Pills at % cents a box.

piles.
