ONE OF THE BEST FEATURES
OF the Pyramid Pile Cure

Is the fact that it cures every form OF
piles without one particle of pain. This
desirable point is not obtained by the use
of injurious opiates which simply deaden
and paralyze the nerves of the parts and
make matters worse in the long run. But
1t is done solely by its remarkable healing
and soothing effects.
and while it thus gives immediate re-
lief. at the same time the disease is not
merely checked. but a radical cure is rap
idly accomplished.
And the point we want TO make clear is
that all this is done without a particle of
pain.
This fact is one reason for the great pop
ularity of the Pyramid Pile Cure and con-
stitutes one very great difference between
ii and almost any other kind of treatment
for piles.
is excruciatingly painful besides endanger-
ing the life of the patient and in most cases
is not to be compared with the Pyramid
Cure, neither in making successful cures
without pain nor in chea cnesS and safety.

Rumors of War in Samoa.

SAN FRANCISCO. March Is. = The
steamer Zealandia brings the following this
morning from Apia, Samoa, dated Feb 3d.:
Once more there are rumors of war in Sa-
moa, with apparently more ground for
alarm than is usually the Gaze. 1t is be-
lieved. however that the arrival of one or
two more war ships with power to aid con-
suls in maintaining firm attitude could
quell the impending disturbance, which is
the outcome of old-time jealousy between
the parties. Chief Justice Ide expects to
leave for his home in Vermont by the next
outgoing steamer. His departure will be
greatly regretted by all lovers of law and
order here.
Several Hawaiian leDers managed to
reach Samoa and have spread the disease
among native Samoans. The natives are
now trying to check the disease. One leper
died recently and United States Consul
Churchill ordered the house in which the
leper lived and all surroundings to be
burned

come revenue for the new fiscal year be-
ginning in July will hardly reach $l4OO0,0OO,
which amount will shrink considerably

must decree new taxes in Spain or call for
