had preached some time previous on the

sermon was devoted to a discussion Of the

would be repeated doubtless had something

Leavell prefaced his sermon by announc-
Ing that today marked the first anniversary
OF the opening OF this church. II was a

BLEEDING PILES.

And all other forms Of this common
and often dang srous disease readily

Thousands of men and women are
afflicted with some sort OF piles, with
out either knowing the exact nature
of the trouble, or knowing 1t, are care
less enough TO allow 1t to run with
out taking the simple 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 surgical
operation.
Surgical operations are dangerous TO
life and moreover not often entirely
successful and at this time are no
longer used by the best physicians or
recommended 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 heal
ing vegetables oils, and absolutely free
from mineral poisons and opiates The
following letter from a Plttsburg
gentleman, severe sufferer from
bleeding piles, gives some idea Of the
prompt, effectual character of the pile
cure. He writes:

lines to let you know that | did not
