10 the monastery of the Grand Char
treuse women, as rule, are inexorably
refused admittance, only a very few
having had the privilege of seeing the
Carthusians (monks of the order) at
homo. A story is told of French
daughter of Eve, blessed with even a
greater share of curiosity than that pos
sessed by the generality of her sex,
who, having heard from her husband
and brother of their late interesting
visit to the monastery, tried by every
means i'll her power to effect an entrance
there, but all to no avail. Determined,
however. by hook OF crook, to succeed,
she mt last hit upon tho happy idea of
presenting herself there dressed as II
man, managing to persuade her husband
to allow her to do so, and to take her
with him Oh his next visit
On arriving mt the gates of the mon
astery she entered unchallenged with
the remainder Of the party, but while
III the garden the conducting monk,
leaving her side, gathered an exquisite
rose, which he brought and presented
to her with courtly bow, proving that
he at least was not deceived by her dis
guise. She, too, foolishly betrayed her
self by her ready grace and charm of
manner i'll accepting the rose, which she
did most willingly. Needless to say
that after this incident she never pcne-
trated into the interior of the building

The shelless limpet pulls 1854 times

ter. Fleas pull / ,403 times their own

Venus verrucosa, can exert pulling
power equal to 2,07l times the weight

possessed by the oyster that to open it n
force equal to 1919 times the weight
of its shelless body is required. If tho

The Search For Truth.

In the search for truth no aid is so
effective as the ever ready spirit of.ac-
tlvlty. He who postpones putting what
he knows into practice until he knows
more will find his journey long and
dlscouraging one. Carlyle well says:
Conviction, were it never SO excellent
is worthless till it converts itself into
conduct. Nay, properly conviction is
not possible till then, inasmuch as all
speculation is by nature endless and
fornless. Most true is it, as n wise man
teaches us, that, Doubt of any sort can
not be removed except by action On
which ground, too, let him who gropes
painfully i'll darllrczs or uncertain light
and prays vehomently that the dawn
may ripen into day, lay this other pre-
cept well to heart, which to me was of
Invaluable service, Do tho duty which
lies nearest to thee, which thou know
est to be duty. The second duty will
already have become clearer"

You CANBOT CURE PILES
By Internal Remedies.

The only sure way to cure every form
of piles is to use a remedy like the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure, which is applied directly
to the parts affected and its wonder
full healing effects are apparent from
the first application because the lnedi-
cinal properties are rapidly a absorbed by
tissues and sensitive membranes of the
rectum and the cure is made speedily
and almost before the patient is aware
of it. every trace of piles has left him.
This is one of the reasons why the
fornaly successful. 1t is applied di-
rectly just where it is needed and where
it will do the most good Not by the
rounda bout way of the stomach nor by
the harsh, barbarouS methods of vari-
Gus surgical operations and so-calIed
systems.
Direct application to the seat of dis
ease is the only rational way, and this
is fully accomplished by the Pyramid
Pile Cure.
If the voluntary testimony of thous-
ands who have tried this remedy Is
worth anything, then no sufferer has
any excuse for longer delaying in giving
it a fair trial, knowing that when you
do so the Pyramid Pile Cure will have
made one more friend, the best possible
advantag es of the remedy ara: 1t cures
without pain, the cure is lasting, it con-.
tains no poison, and lastly, it is the
cheapest and quickest cure yet found.
