BLEEDING PILES

And all other forms Of this common and
often dangerous disease readily cured
without pain or inconvenience.
Thousands of men and women are at
ficted with some sort Of piles, without
either knowing the exact nature Of the
trouble, or knowing it, are careless enough
to allow it to run without taking the SIM
pie means offered for radical cure.
The failure OF salves and ointments to
permanently cure piles has led many to
believe the only cure to be a surgical ope-
ration.
Surgical operations are dangerous to
life, and moreover, not often entirely sue
cessful, and at this time are no longer
used by the best physicians or recon-
mended by them
The safest and surest way to cure any
case of piles, whether blind bleeding or
protruding, is to use the Pyramid Pile
Cure, composed Of healing vegetable oils
and absolutely free from mineral poisons
and opiates The following letter from
Pittsburg gentleman, severe sufferer
from bleeding piles, gives some idea of
the prompt, effectual character of this
pile cure. He writes:
l take pleasure writing these few lines
to let you know that l did not sleep for
three months except for a short time each
night because of bad case of bleeding
piles. / was down in bed and the doctors
did me no good. A good brother told me
of the Pyramid Pile Cure and l bought
from my druggist three fifty cents boxes.
They cured me and / will soon be able to
go to my work again.
WILLIAM HANDSCHU,
46 st., Cotton Alley, below Butter ST.,
Pittsburg, Pa
The Pyramid Pile Cure Is not only the
safest and surest remedy for piles, but Is
the best known and most popular. Every
physician and druggist in the country
knows 1t and what 1t will do.
Send for little book on cause and cure
Of piles, describing all forms Of piles and
the proper treatment
The Pyramid can be found at all drug
stores at 50 cents per package.

a striking and eloquent letter in the Call.
If any people in the United States are in
doubt whether the Hawailans do or do not
desire annexation, they should read Miss
Michelsons article. Miss Michel

on the Island of Hawaii, which was at

presided over by Mrs. Kuaihelani Camp

opened with prayer by the minister Of the
Hawaiian chuch, who prayed with much
earnestness in the Hawaiian tongue that
their land might be preserved to them.
The first to address the Hawaiian women

eloquence and fire:

WANT TO SCALP THE sCALpERs.
Passenger Agents Ask For Anti
ScaIping Legislation.

st. Louis, Mo-. Oct. 2O.-The American
Association of General Passenger Agents,
now in session here, with delegates pres
ent representing the principal railway sys-
TENS of the United. States, Canada and
Mexico has adopted resolutions calling
attention to the necessity for state and
national legislation against the ticket
scalping evil. State legislatures that have
not already done so, are urged to adopt
laws combining the sale of tickets to the
properly authorized agents of the trans
portation companies, and at the same time
that will require under suitable penalties
the redemption of every ticket or part of
ticket that may be not used. Congress is
also requested to pass the so-called anti
scaiping' bills now before that body.
Officers for the ensuing year were elect
ed as follows: W. A. Turk of the South
ern railway, president; c. S. Fee of the
Northern Pacific, vice president, and Mr..
Smith reelected secretary.
President Turk announced the following
executive committee for the next term:
Mr.. Sebastian of the Rock Island, chair
man; Messrs. Lee of Philadelphia, Deha-
ven, Grand Rapids; d. L Edwards, Gin
cinnati; c. P. Atmore, Louisville; Kendall,
Boston, and Nicholson, St. Louis.
Resolutions of regret were passed upon
the recent deaths OF Messrs. B. w. Thatch-
er of the Mexican Central railroad, and
c. c. Hancock of the Philadelphia and
Reading.
Detroit was chosen as the place for hold
ing the next meeting.

Talk of ignoring or Repeating Gen.
DOw's Famous Law.
From dc Nav York SIM

FROM the New York Sun.
Portland, Me-, Oct. 16.-Will the prohib-
itory law die now that Neal Dow is dead
is a question frequently asked here. The
general opinion seems to be that some de-
cided change may be looked for in the
near future.
As matter of fact, Gen. Dow retired
from active life when little past 80 years
of age, but nobody thought much about
it. People took it for granted that he was
still as ready for fight as ever, and so
concluded to put off for a while any at
tempt to change the law that bears his
name. Now he is gone, those who don't
like this law are talking Of a change. 1t
may be that there will De a general adop-
ton OF the Bangor system" so called
all over Maine. In Bangor long ago the
people said: Don't enforce the law, and
that ended it. Public sentiment set aside
a law of the state, and, for that matter
part of the organic law also Portland Is
rapidly getting into line with the Bangor
system. At the late term Of the superior
court, before Judge Bonney, more than
$4,000 was paid in fines by liquor sellers
and besides many cases were appealed
only in order to get little more time
That record indicates the extent to which
the law Is violated. There Is also a great
deal Of talk favorable to a crusade against
the law itself. There is no leader left on
the side of prohibition able to take the
place of Gen. Dow. and the friends of the
measure would be forced to fall back on
the farmers ana to ask them to stand by
the law
1t is admitted that the public sentiment
in the cities, where the law has failed to
a very marked degree, is In favor of IL
cense, while in the country towns people
still believe in Gen. BOWS law, as they
call 1t. 1t would be the cities against
the country If a strong attempt was made
to break down the claw. The fact that it
is intrenched In the constitution of the
state would make It doubly hard to re-
peal. Very likely there win be ne organ

Mr.. Laffan is supposed to have a COM

1t would be likely to return to the ranks

Mr.. Laffan's life has been one that has
