A RELIC OF THE PAST.
surgical Operations for the Cure OF
Piles and Rectal Diseases No
Longer Necessary.
A Medical Discovery Which VIII
Change the Treatment OF
All Such Diseases.

1t has long been thought not only by some
physicians. but by people in general, that
the common, painful and exceedingly an
noying trouble, piles, was practically incur
able by any other means than a surgical
operation, and this belief has been the cause
of years of needless suffering. because of
the natural dread of surgical operations.
There are many sGlves, ointments and
similar remedies on the market which
AFFORD some relief in cases of piles. but the
Pyramid Pile Cure is the only preparation
so far introduced that can be reliably de-
pended upon to cure to stay cured, every
form of itching, bleeding or protruding
piles.
Mrs. NJ. C. Hinkley. of col Mississippi
street, Indianapolis, was told by her ply
SlclanS that nothing but a surgical opera
ton, costing between seven anu eight hum
dred doliars, could cure her, as she mad suf-
Tered tor nfteen years; yet even IN such
case as hers the pyramid Pie cure ac-
compliShed a complete cure. Sne says: Il
knew an operation would be death TO me,
and tried the pyramid with very little hope,
and il is not to be wondered at that / am
so enthusiastic in its praise.
Mr. ID. h. Reed, OF south Lyons, Mich,
says 1 would not take $500 and be placed
back where 1 was before l used the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure. L suffered for years, and it
is now eighteen months since used 1t, and
not the slightest trace of the trouble has
returned.
The pyramid Pile Cure is sold by nearly
all druggists at so cents and 81 per package,
and as it contains no opium, cocaine or
other poisonous drug can be used with per-
feet safety,
No one need suffer from piles in any form
who will give this excellent. remedy trial

ALEXANDRIA, Ind, Nov. N.-The head
quarters of the committee on the matter of
gas waste furnishes a scene of activity and
the rooms in the Doxey block resemble
campaign headquarters on the night before
election. Answers have been received to
nearly all of the invitations sent to the
mayors to visit the city next Monday, and
the prospects are that the committee will
have its hands full in the entertainment of
its guests. The committee is greatly en-
couraged over the interest manifested in
neighboring cities and is assured of the ac-
tive support from nearly every executive
applied to. Letters have also been received
from portions of the State outside OF the
gas belt cordially supporting the movement
and evincing most intense interest in the
success of the movement.

A Boys Opinion OF the Mole.
Monhop'c M0uthlxr ~ rN

A young friend of the conductor made
some remarks on the mole that indicated
an observing spirit worth encouraging. He
was asked to write them out, and this is
what he says:
''They needn't tell us in books. that moles
have no eyes. You see one that wants to
cross road where the dirt has been trod-
den hard-or maybe il is a gravel road, he
does not so zigzag across, not knowing
where to go, like a blind one, wasting of
his time for nothing. but he cuts straight
across the shortest way. If he couldn't see.
how would he know the shortest way? He
must either see or smell that's sure-but
there is nothing to smell across road. To
be sure there are no peep holes or the top
of his runs for him to look out to see which
way to bore his hole under ground-but as
he does make his runs square across these
hard roads. he must sufely see some way,
or how could he do it2
Then ] was reading In the books about
moles: That they are always hungry. and
that unless they can eat something they viii
die in a day. ! don't think the mcles eat
much in the winter time, but they seem
awful hungry sometimes. In the winter we
have thaWs for few days at a time, and
