A CERTAIN CURE FOR PILES
Safe and Effective In Every Form OF
This Common and Annoy
ing Disease.

Many people suffer from piles, because
after trying the many lotions. salves and
ointments without relief or cure, have come
to the conclusion that a surgical operation
is the only thing left to try and rather than
submit to the shock and risk to life of an
operation, prefer to suffer on. Fortunately
this is no longer necessary, the Pyramid
Pile Cure. a new preparation cures every
form of piles, without pain, inconvenience
or detention from business
1t is in the form OF suppositories. easily
applied absolutely free from opium, CO.
caine. or any injurious substance whatever.
and no matter how severe the pain, gives in
slant relief, not by deadening the nerves of
the parts, but rather by it's healing sooth-
ing erect upon the congested membranes
Inc PYRAMID Pile Cure is the most effec-
tive, the safest and most extensively sold of
fore the public, and this reputation has
been secured by reason of it's extraordinary
merit and the reasonable price at which il
IS sold, all druggists selling it at so cents
and 81 per package, and in many cases a
single package has been SUFFICIENT
A person takes serious chances in neglect
ing simp-e case of piles as the trouble
soon becomes deep seated and chronic, and
very frequently develops into fatal incura-
ulcers.
Any druggist will tell you the Pyramid Is
the safest most satisfactory pile cure made

send to any address a treatise on cause and
cure of piles, also book of testimonials.
