ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD.
A New Discovery Which is
 Worth That Much
To Anyone Afflicted With Piles.

The Pyramid Pile Cure, the new, painless remedy which has been so re- markedly successful in curing every form of piles and rectal diseases, has recently been placed on sale at drug gists and it is safe to say that when it's extraordinary merit becomes fully known there will be no such thing as surgical operations for the cure of this obstinate and common trouble.
 Mrs. M. c. Hinkly of 601 Mississippi St., Indianapolis, Ind, says: I had been a terrible sufferer from piles for 15 years and no remedies benefited me, until I saw an advertisement of the Pyramid Pile Cure; I got a package, also a package of Pyramid Pills and used both according to directions. was astonished at the immediate relief obtained and now honestly believe the Pyramid to be the only certain cure for piles.
 , That you may reaize how bad I was. I will say that I was confined to my bed and went before the college physicians here who said my case was new one to them and wanted seven to eight hundred dollars to undertake cure; the great pain had brought on a rup- ture, and knew an operation would be death to me on account of blood poison ing. Nearly everyone here knows of my terrible suffering from piles and I 1 feel that I cannot praise the Pyramid ! Pile cure enough and the Pyramid Pills also. My husband will join ne in high ly recommending the Pyramid, my daughter was cured by one box only. For several years I weighed but about 90 pounds, now I weigh 150 and feel in perfect health.
 This seems to be the universal testi- mony of every sufferer from pil"s who have ever tried the Pyramid; it is the safest, most painless pile cure yet dis covered; contains no opiate, morphine, cocaine OF any poisonous ingredient whatever, has 6 soothing, healing effect from the first application, and the mod crate price places it within the reach of everyone needing treatment The Py- ramid Pile Cure is sold by druggists at 50 cents and s1.00 per package and the Pyramid Pills at 25 cents per box. Send to Pyramid Co.,, Albion, Mich, for free book on cause and cure of piles.
