CONSUMERS LEAGUE FORMED.
No shopping After o'clock or De-
livery of Goods After O.

A number OF representative women met
on Thursday. and formed a con-
sumers' league. calling It the Consumers
League of Virginia. Although bearing
the name OF that body which has done
so great a work In New York for the
amelloration OF the conditions under
which shopgirls work. this does not follow
In its footsteps, having an independent
standard of its own.
This league is formed for self-educa-
ton, and in entire cooperation with the
shopmen and their trade. No shopgirl
is eligible for membership. Nothing is
asked OF shopkeepers.
The consumers are pledged TO three
things.
l. Not to shop after 5 o'clock r. NJ,
Christmas excepted.
q To ask shopkeepers TO deliver con-
sumers bundles by p. NJ, or hold them
over until the next day. IL they cannot
be delivered before g.
3. Consumers pledge themselves to care
fully search the shops in Richmond
before sending elsewhere for goods, and
to make II a matter Of conscience to shop
In Richmond, when Il Is possible.
No fee is asked from members. and The
movement is genuinely and heartily FOR
the help of the shopkeepers, for only
through them can the shopgirl be bene-
flied.
Finally, 1t is realized by these women
that the fault which brings about some
of the Objectionable conditions lies solely
with the public and before all else, rhs
effort is made for their education in the
responsibility which they cannot avoid.

Pyramid Pile Cure Cures Piles
Quickly, Painlessly, with
out Danger.

People go along for years suffering
with piles. Then try this and that ana
the other thing; from carrying a DUCK
eye to getting treatment from physi-
clan. They obtain temporary RELIEF, may-
be. but they are never quite cured. A
little strain In lifting, excessive fatigue,
a little constipation. or a little diarrhoed.
and the piles come back
They don't seem to amount to much,
but they Danish sleep and appetite. No
position is comfortable. There is intense
local pain and that dreadful feeling oil
weight in the perineum.
Maybe. In the early stages some of the
many salves on sale will afford temporary
relief. If the case is OF long standing
there is only one speedy and sure remedy.
II Is Pyramid Pile Cure. Even in light
cases 1t is the safest thing to use. Other
applications may cure and may not.
Pyramid Cure Is always certain, always
reliable, always brings comfort at once.
Its prompt use saves months of severe
suffering. In extreme cases 1t will save
surgical operations and their attendant
dangers and discomforts. 1t is better
than q knife. VIII cure easier, quicker,
and safer Thousands have used it,.
Thousands have been cured by it, The
cost is trifiing compared with what 1T
does. The price is so cents. Most any
body would gladly pay SO to be rid Of
piles.
Druggists sell Pyramid Pile Cure. Send
20 Pyramid Drug Company, Marshall,
Mich, for book on cause and cure OF
piles.

Mrs. Anna Hickin, the young woman
who was arrested in an Eleventh-street

from Norfolk. charging her with being a
fugitive from justice from that city, is
now a prisoner in the city Jail, where she
was committed yesterday by Justice
Crutchfeld to await the arrival of an
officer from the city 10y the sea.
Mrs. Hickin, when she appeared in the
Police Court. was defended by Mr.. NJ. L.
Maury, and after her committal she was
taken before Judge Witt, of the Hastings
Court. on a writ Of habeas corpus. her
counsel contending that a telegram speci-
flying no charge was no authority on
which to hold the prisoner. Judge Witt
denied the writ but said he would admit
the prisoner to bail in the sum Of $500
This, she was unable to give, however
TI sne went TO Jail. where Sergeant
Epps made her as comfortable as posi-
BILE in one Of the rooms set apart for The

Calendar Social mt Seventh-Street.

The calendar social at the Seventh
Street Christian church last evening was
a gratifying success When the members
of that church went their several ways
this summer each took a mite-box, not
only for themselves. but for every friend
whom they might meet interested in
church work. About 600 of these boxes
were distributed. Last night was the
time set apart for handing these boxes in,
most of which were full, In order to
make the gathering of this harvest at
tractive, the ladies Of the church con-
ceived the idea of a calendar social There
were four booths to represent the four
seasons. At each booth three young
ladies stood, representing the months OF
the year. December the old year Janu-
airy the new, and February, the month OF
valentines, were ably pictured. Among
the most beautiful Of the seasons were
spring, with its promise OF fruit and
flowers, and summer, with that promise
fulfilled.
Or. Sweeney, the energetic pastor of
this church. is full of energy, and his
many wishes, which he hopes TO see full
filled. The money brought in last night
is entirely for institutional work" Dr.
Sweeney's earnest desire is TO keep his
church open every day and every eve
ming, as a kind of retreat for those need
ing quiet rest and comfort.

A Minister Happily Surprised.

Rev. j. I. Bays, pastor of the Christian
church at Neodesha, Kan, has a little
boy who was afflicted with rheumatism
in the knee. Rev. Bays says: 1T was so
bad al times that my son was unable to
put his foot to the floor. We tried in vain
everything we could hear of that we
thought would help him. We almost gave
up in despair, when some one advised us
10 try Chamberain's Pain Balm. We did
so, and the first bottle gave so much re-
lief that we got a second one, and TO
our surprise it cured him sound and well. "
