thirty-twO volumes OF convenient size
neatly bound. four volumes of thean-

atlas and the neat convenient revolving
oak cas- ewith glass doors. From the
evidence obtained We find that some
part of this work is placed in the
best private and public library In this
country an dabroad, for the reason
that they cover a field relative to the
past. present and future progress
and achievements Of the human race
not attempted by others. The plan
is original, and the work throughout

The magazine will be indispensable
to all people who have encyclopedias,

works up to date. To those who do
not own encyclopedias it will be doubly
valuable as their source of information
is more limited. About March of
each year the four volumes of current

So the days passed in gossips and

supper but the dear women invited
couldn't imagine where she cooked it

finger bowls bothered them ard they
wondered why she had six cushions on

Sometimes she Vas very pleasant and

TO SUFFERERS
HOW YOU MAY OBTAIN A LASTING
CURE FOR PILES.
Ito Surgical Operation, No Pain, Trifing
~Expense-h Simple, Harmless Remedy,
But it Does the Work.

Ito Surgical Operation, No Pain, Trihing
E~xpense-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 e%xertion, as in lifting, will pro-
duce them, and in fact will often appear
without any apparent proyocation. Piles,
however, are much more serious than a cold
as the tendency is always to grow worse un-
til the trouble becomes deep seated and
chronic, or deyolopes 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
we'll 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 a surgical operation, and its advau-
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 possible be, costing but a dollar a pack
age at any drug store.
The cases that the Pyramid Pile Cure will
not reach are so few that physicians are do
ing away with operations for piles and de-
pending on this cheap but effective remedy
to accomplish a complete cure, and it never
~disappoints 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 as so cents per
package. Each package contains a treatise
on cause and cure Of piles, together with
testimonials from every section of this
country.

will become operative in a few days,
Delegates visited Providence yesterday
and secured the signature Of the Knights

the number above the limit required to
insure the movement. 1t is generally ex'

The agreement binds the mills to a forty

weeks, but a generally improved market
before that time may shorten the curtail'

The HONEST SHAKERS AND THEIR
CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA.

The shopkeeper who cheats us by lying
with regard to the quality of his goods, and
the grocer or the butcher who gives us short
weights, is a thief. However, their knavery
touches nothing but our pocketbook. There
is another widespread form Of misrepresenta
ton of a far more dangerous and v|illainous
character.
We refer to the false statements and worth.
less guarantees that frequently accompany
medicines. To guarantee a medicine to cure
is to brand it as a quack product. If we cal
guarantee to cure disease, then we cal
guarantee everlasting life, for in a large
majority of cases people die of disease, tn,
proportion of violent or accidental deathi
being very small.
The Shakers have always been known as q
most upright and honorable people, anC
their success in the manufacture of medicines
has also been well known. 1t is therefor,
not surprising to find them pursuing a very
original and novel plan for the introduction
of their remedy for dyspepsia.
These God-fearing people, whose motto ha.
always been Try all things and hold fss
that which is good" have put upon til,
market ten cent sample bottles Of their pro
duct, or sufficient to give it a trial.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial is so promp
in its action that for the trivial sum Of tel
cents, a person can usually determine as t,
whether or not it meets the requirements o

IT rarely occurs that any new devices of
r~ascality designed to be made useful in de
c%eiying and defrauding honest people are
long-lived. The agents of the law generally
find them out, and the law provides penalties
for the using of them, which generally have
deterring effect. Among those devices which
nave found favor with scamps is the use of
what are known as Knockout drops"
Those drops have no doubt been the agent of
many murders, and Of course Of many rob
berries. The use Of the drops have become so
common that Senator Martin, of the New
York Legislature, has introduced a bill into
the body Of which he is a member, which
makes it a felony for anybody to be found in
possession of Knockout drops" when it can
be shown that the drug is carried with
criminal intent. The penalty is imprison-
ment in the State ~Penitentiary for five years.
Pennsylvania could afford to have a similar
law, as it is known the Knockout drops"
have been used extensively in this state.

CHARGED WITH PIRACY.
Serious Action Against the Fill
buster Three Friends.
ATTORNEY GENERALS ATTITUDE.

The Head Of the Department of Justice
Orders a Florida District Attorney to
Fake Radical Action Against the Ao-
cused Steamer.
WARRINGTON, Eel. 2-Attorney General
Harmon has given instructions to the
United States attorney at Jacksonville,
Fla, Co at once proceed against the alleged
alibuster, Three Friends, under section
4,297 of the revised statutes, for engaging
IN an act of piracy. it is the understand
ing of the department that the Three
Friends, some weeks ugo, while on a llt-
clustering expedition, carrying arms and
ammunition and a mounted amor on
her decks, was pursued by a Spanish YES
sci and IN making her escape fired n OF
more shots at her pursuer. Whether shots
were actually fred or not, the contention
Is that she was so armed as to clearly
bring her within the terms of section 1927.
The attorney generals opinion is that
there is but one alternative. The Three
Friends, on the occasion named, was
either engaged in a political expedition
against % friendly power or on a piratical
one. Her urms and mounted cannon fur
nish evidence that her mission was not a
peaceful one, but quito the contrary. In

THE announcement of the death of Hon.
D. D. Phillips, which appeared in tho HER
AID last evening, caused expressions Of
sincere sorrow in all quarters. He was one
of the most prominent men in Schuylkil
county, and was active in many enterprises
that tended to the development of his native
county. In political circles, he was known
as a master in the art of commanding and
directing political combinations. He was al
ways in close touch with national and state
leaders of the Republican party and retained
their confidence up to the time that the fatal
disease took him out Of active political life.
In bis demise the party has lost one Of its
~aBlest leaders and S~chuylkill county a pro-
gressive citizen.
