FOUR E0XEs DID r.

Remarkable Success OF : New Pile Cure.
People who have suffered for years
or months from the pain and incOn-
venience, of that common disorder,
piles, will look with skepticism upon
the claims of the makers of the new
discovery for cure of all forms of piles,
known Under the name Of Pyramid
Pile Cure; nevertheless the extraordin-
airy cures performed by this remedy
are such as to warrant the investiga-
ton of any sufferer. AS a case in
point the following letter speaks for
itself:
Mr.. Henry Thomas, of sub-station
No. 3, Hosack Ave-, Columbus Ohio,
writes as follows:
Pyramid Drug Co.
Gentlemen:-I want you to use my
name if it will be of any use to YOU
was SO bad with the piles that l lost
work on that account. Nothing did
me any good l read in Cincinnati of
the many cures of piles by the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure and l went to drug
store and asked for it. The drug clerk
told me that he had something else
that he thought was better, but | TOLD
him that l wanted to try the Pyramic
first
The first box helped me so much that
| tried another, and then to complete
the cure used two more boxes, max
ing four in all. / am now completely
cured. Have not a trace of piles ana
had suffered for four years with the
worst form of protruuing piles.
| suffered death from piles. but l
have found the Pyramid Pile Cure to
be just as represented. l have recon-
mended it to several of my friends
and am thankful to be able to write
you what good the remedy has done
for me-
Physicians recommend the Pyramid
Pile Cure because it contains no
opium, cocaine, or mineral poison of
any kind, and because it is safe and
pleasant to use, being painless and ap-
piled at night. The patient is cured
in surprisingly short time with no
inconvenience whatever.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by
druggists at so cents per package, and
if there is any constipation it is well
to use the Pyramid Pills at the same
time with the Pile Cure, as constipa-
ton is very often the cause of piles
and the pills effectually remove the
costive condition. Price of pills IS
cents per package.
Write to Pyramid Drug Co., Albion,
Mich, for little book on cause and cure
OF piles; sent by mail free.

Other Local 8ellaire Items.
The strikers were more Hopeful yes
terday than they have been during the
past week, in which a number of cir
cumstances have occurred which tended
20 lower their spirits. They seem quite
hopeful and are still determined to hold
out. The reason for it is that they
have finally prevailed upon those who
had decided to go back to work to still
remain out.
The leader of the so-called seceders,
and the one who was chiefly instrument
tai In causing temporary break
among the strikers, has left town, and
it is understood that the strikers to a
man will continue to remain out at
least for time. The strikers are con-
fident that the company will not sue
coed in getting any of their men to go
back to work as nOn-uniOn EMPLOYEES
no matter what inducements are offer
ed.
1t is the report that large wages are
offered to men who will go to work, and
various stories are told of the amounts
held out. A number Of the strikers
have gotten jobs in Martins Ferry,
Wheeling, Benwood and elsewhere. The
people of Bellaire and workmen of the
vicinity are contributing literally to
their support, and the unemployed steel
workers say that they feel encouraged
to keep, up the fight. To-day is pay
day at the steel works. but a more
peaceable time is anticipated than that
of last pay day. The police will be
fully prepared for any trouble and will
increase their force at various points
similar to last Saturday evening, for
tonight 1t is expected that the ma
jority of the new employees will remain
behind the fence, for it is understood
that orders have been issued to this
effect in order to prevent another riot.
