A REMARKABLE CURE.
A CASE OF PILES OF EIGHTEEN
YEARS STANDING.
Cured by the Pyramid Pile Cure

There are plenty of pile cures which give
relief and sometimes cure mild case of
piles, but there is only one which can be
depended upon with certainty TO cure OBJ
stinate. long-standing cases, and that is the
Pyramid Pile Cure.
Endorsements and testimonials are re-
ceived daily from men and women whose
integrity and reliability are above question
and i'm this connection letter received
from the Rev. James H. Wesbrook, of
Bovine Mich, may be of interest to pile
sufferers who have sought in vain for a
cure. He says:
Il have used the Pyramid Pile Cure and
i know that il is all that Is claimed for it,
/ had been troubled with piles more or less
for about eighteen years and | had tried
other remedies, but the piles grew worse
until about ten months ago | used the
Pyramid Pile Cure. Ii gave almost instant
relief and | have been free from piles ever
ince"-Rev. James II. Wesbrook
The remedy seems TO act equally well in
every form of piles, blind bleeding. pro-
truding or itching. lit stops all pain almost
Immediately allays irritation and removes
constipation. and anyone who has suffered
the annoyance and pain of q rectal trouble
will appreciate the excellent results which
invariably follow the first application of the
Pyramid.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by
the Pyramid Drug Co.. of Albion, Mich,
and for sale by druggists everywhere at 80
cents per package.

AN INSURANCE BUREAU.
Ii Will Be FavOrabIy Recommended
to the Commercial Club.

1t is altogether likely that the movement
sured in the adjustment OF fire losses and
ratings buildings will take definite form
i'm the organization of an insurance bureau
by the Commercial Club. At last week S
meeting of the directors of the club the
matter was laid before them and referred
factures. These committees met yesterday
and called before them member of the
original committee charged with the mat
ter who suggested two plans of getting at
the subject. one by special organization as
outlined last week, and the other by Crgan-
iZing fire insurance bureau an adjunct
of the club. BY this latter plan. he ex-
planned, bureau could be conducted by the
nish expert to represent the assured in
either an adjustment of loss or u rating
the cost of the service to be borne by the
one applying for the assistance of the bu-
reau.
These two plans We're discussed by the
Schnull. ]. r. Ross, T. b. Laycock. Jack
son Landers, h. G. Atkins. "A. III. Nordyke
A. Kipp and G.. w. Snider. The bureau
plan was adopted and the two committees
adopted the following resolution: We rec
that it act favorably in the matter of pro-
noting an organization in behalf of the in
tereStS of insurers against fire: and second
that it authorize the appointment of "a
committee whose duty il shall be to effect
such organization as a bureau of the Com
mercial Club" This resolution will be pre-
sented at meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the club this afternoon
