A POPULAR CASE.

Sweet Cupid sat on a mossy bank,
With u tear in his round, blue eye,
His wing were draggled with silver dew,
And his culver and bow flung by,
The butterflies came from the garden
near
And perched on his dimpled toes,
And honey-bee slipped at his limple lip,
And thought it an opening rose,
mot an arrow went TO its mark today,
II wasted them all, he sighed,
my wings and my curls too well they
know,
So the men and the maidens hide,
My mother must clip my pinions close.
And must braid my locks of gold,
And I'll borrow the frock of damsel
fair,
My roseate limbs to fold"
So now no more in the fiowery field
Or the woods where the thrushes sing
Do we hear the patter of naked feet,
Or the sweep of an airy wing,
He has stolen the gown of a pretty girl,
And her hat with its dropping plupe,
And a cluster of velvety blue
From his breast TO shed perfume
He has donned her veil with its bordered
edge,
And her gloves of the palest gray,
And hides his brow In her fluffy tan
lie has clipped his wings and braided his
curls,
But beware of his roguish eyes,
For sly little Cupid is still the same,
In spite of his new disguise.

SURGICAL OPERATIONS
FOR THE CURE OF PILES AND RECTAL
DISEASES NO LONGER NECESSARY.
A Medical Discovery which VIII Change the
Treatment Of All Such Diseases.

1t has long been thought not only
by some physicians but by people in
general, that the common, painful and
exceedingly annoying trouble, piles,
was practically incurable by any other
means than surgical operation and
this belief has been the cause of years
of needless suffering, because of the
natural dread of surgical operations
There are many salves, ointments and
similar remedies on the market which
afford some relief in cases of piles. but
the Pyramid Pile Cure Is the only prep
aration 80 far introduced that can be
reliably depended upon to cure to stay
cured, every form of itching, bleeding
or protruding piles.
Mrs NJ. c. Hinkley, of sol Mississippi
street, Indianapolis, was told by her
physicians that nothing but a surgical
operation costing between seven and
eight hundred dollars, could cure her
as she had suffered for fifteen years;
yet even in such a case as hers the
Pyramid Pile cure accomplished a
complete cure She says: 'I knew an
operation would be death to me and
tried the Pyramid with very little hope
and II is not TO be wondered at that
/ am so enthusiastic in its praise"
Mr.. d. +. Reed, of South Lyons
Mich, says: l would not take $500 and
be placed back where I was before I
used the Pyramid Pile Cure, suffered
for years and it is now eighteen months
since / used 1t and not the slightest
trace of the trouble has returned.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by
nearly all druggists at so cents and 81
per package and as 1t contains no
opium, cocaine or other poisonous
drugs can be used with perfect safety.
No one need suffer from piles in any
form who will give this excellent rem
edy trial. Send for book on cause
and cure of piles, sent free by address,

The trouble with too many country wo-
men is that they do not sufficiently realize
the supreme importance of keeping healthy
in q womanly way. A woman's general
health cannot be good If she suffers from
local weakness and disease. If she suffers
in this way, the strongest woman will soon
break down and become a weak, sickly,
nervous, complaining invalid. DR.. Pierce's
Fsvorite Prescription cures all weakness
and disease of the organs distinctly femi-
nine. 1t acts directly on these organs,
making them strong, healthy and vigorous.

EXTRACTS FROM EDITORIAL
EXPRESSION.
State and Coast Opinions on SUBJ
iects of Living News
Interest.

San Jose Mercury: The agents OF the
San Francisco Alaskan Trade Commit
tee didn't stay long in Chicago, Out
they had a hot time in the Ola Town
the little time they were there. VI
course they could not have been ex-
pected to remain after the committee
money had all been blown in ana no
more was in sight. 1t is doubtful IL the
agents drummed up a single customer
but after their brilliant career IN that
CITY Chicag 60 will never call san FTan-
cisco jay town.
RUSTLING.
Kern Echo: Thousands OF people
would do but little rustling for a job
If they knew the Government would
find one for them. 1t IS because OF
that feeling of dependence that the sons
of rich men are so often not worth Inc
powder to kill them.-Echo.
What is the good in ''rustling for a
job?" Did any one ever earn a meal,
add a whit to human accumulation OF
wealth or knowledge, become any bet
ter or help to raise the standard of
civilization any higher by rustling for
Il job? Is it not a fact that it is not
until after the job has been found that
the man seeking it becomes OF any use
whatever to the world or to hlmsei1 I!
Only by productive labor OF muscle
or mind can a man be other than
burden upon society, which as whole
is forced to maintain the rustlerS while
they continue to be SUCH without any
return. On the other hand, the rustlers
themselves compete among themselves
for place, bidding down wages and thus
reducing the consuming power of the
people, which fact in turn lessons the
number Of places to be competed for.
CLOSE FIGURING.
Colusa Sun: The San Francisco Eek
aminer' has been figuring on the num-
Der of deaths by the street cars in that
city, and makes them out about one
a month. Now. the city claims about
100000 inhabitants. and big and little
average ten crossings day; this is o.
100000 crossings a day, or something
over 100000 a month, or 1865, O00,OOO
a year. At this stage Of the figuring
we begin to get scared. If we make
our ten crossings day, in just 2o,OOo-
600 years comes our time, sure! And,
figuring on probabilities, life insurance
men, we will probably be killed in To-
600 years, Ugh, Think of it!
OPPOSING THE LODGE BILL.
San Jose Mercury: An organization
has been formed in New York which
styles itself the Immigration Pro-
tective League" the sole purpose OF

the existing condition upon the audi
ence.
There may be some truth in that, but
there may be other considerations. It is
not every day that we come across a
good Shakespaarean artist. 1t takes gen.
Jus and hard work to make such an
actor. A really good performer of that
class seldom fails to draw an audience
here or elsewhere. But a bad Shake
spearean performance is something very
bad indeed, and calls down the anger
Of the gods. A lively modern play, even
with considerable nonsense about it,
played as many combinations on the
road can play it, is better that a TRACE
dian who tears a passion to tatters,
rants and makes guy of himself in the
effort to do something for which he is
qualified by neither art nor nature, to
say nothing of his support.
BOIES HEDGING.
Stockton Independent: Ex-Governor
Boies of Iowa has evidently yielded 20
Democratic pressure and is hedging.
His speech at Fairfield Tuesday night
seems not to have touched the SUBJ
ject of his recent advice that 10 to l"
be abandoned as forlorn hope, and
he devoted himself to his new currency
scheme. The telegram about his speech
contains ten lines describing his former
position and only three about what his
speech was like. This shows plainly
that it was a disappointment 1t had
been announced that he would make
his position plain in that speech for
which reason he had declined to talk
to interviewers in advance. If he made
his position clear that position is that
he is awaiting authority to say what
Democratic doctrine is and that he will
accept the dogma. Meantime he is
spinning cobwebs in the effort to divert
attention from his late spasm of indie
pendence.
