NO SLEEP FOR THREE MONTHS.
One Cause of SleepIessness That Can
Be Readily overcome.

Mr.. VIM. Handschu of 18th St, Cotton
Alley, Pittsburg, Pa, expresses himself
follows regarding the new .Amedy for
that common and obstinate disease,
piles: Il take pleasure in stating that I
was so afflicted with piles that for three
months 1 got no regular sleep; 1 became
completely Frustrated, the doctors did me
no good; my brother told me of the new
remedy for piles, the Pyramid Pile Cure
1 purchased from my druggist three so
cent boxes and they completely cured me-
1 am once more at my work and but for
this excellent medicine should be on my
back. I take great pleasure in writing
this letter because so many people are
sufferers from this trouble who like my
self did not know where to look for a
permanent, reliable, safe cure.
Experience with the Pyramid Pile Cure
in the past three years has demonstrated
to the medical profession, well as to
thousands of sufferers from piles, that it
is the safest and most effectua1 pile cure
ever offered to the public, containing no
opiates or poisons of any kind painless
and convenient to handle, and being sold
by druggists at so cents and 81 per box, is
within the reach of everyAsufferer.
Very frequently two or three boxes
have made a complete cure of chronic
cases that had not yielded to other RENE
dies for years
There is scarcely a disease more aggra-
waiting and obstinate to cure than the
various forms of piles and it is a common
practice to use ointments. salves and SIM
liar preparations containing dangerous
poisons to remove the trouble. The Pyra-
mid has superseded all of these ineffect-
ual remedies and no one suffering with
any rectal trouble will make any mis-
take in giving the Pyramid a trial
If in doubt as to the nature of your
trouble send to the Pyramid Drug Co.,
Albion Mich, for a valuable little book
on piles, describing ali forms of the dis
ease and describing the method of cure.
Any druggist can furnish the Pyram
Pile Cure as it is the best known and
most popular remedy for piles and if you
ask him he can doubtless refer you to
many people in your vicinity who have
been cured completely by it.

JOE JEFFERSON DENIES.
Will Not Retire From the Stage as
was Reported.

Boston, July 6.-The report that Joe
Jefferson would retire from the stage at
the close of his engagement in the fail of
1888 is without foundation. To a cores
pondent who called at Crows Nest today
the veteran actor said that he was unable
to understand how such a false report
got into circulation.
The report is entirely without author
ity or foundation said Mr.. jefferson.
Il have repeatedly said that 1 should not
retire from the stage unless my health

An Unprecedented s

A Trained Nurse Gained Fifty-three

ONE OF THE MOST REMARKABLE
RESULTS ON RECORD.
From the Gazette, Yonkers, N. Y.

II don't look much like a living skeleton

Coffey, of 81 Warburton Avenue, Yonkers,

her, for she certainly looked anything but a
living skeleton, but rather bore the appear
ance of a plump and attractive lady in ex-
cellent health and spirits. Continuing she
said:
Il had lost my appetite and was wasting
away in flesh, losing seme fifty pounds in q
few months. Doctors said l was threatened
with consumption. l was under what was
regarded as frst-class medical Treatment,
but it had apparently little or no effect, for
I kept getting worse until l was so weak
that l could not attend to my household
duties and could hardly walk. My husband
and everybody who saw Inc thought surely
that l would die, and there seemed no help
for me.
"Tonics and stimulants and medicines all
seemed useless, and l grew worse and worse

of nauseous drugs and doses of stuff which
seemed to take away what little relish I
might perhaps otherwise have had for food.

from their use was noticeable from the first
