THINK THIS OVER.
A Rational Remedy for a National Trouble

A Rational Remedy for a National Trouble.
To say that hemorrhoids or the dis
ease commonly known as plies is a ma
tional disease may be slightly over
drawn, but it is quite certain that at
least one in every four persons is so
afflicted.
Because it is common and not imme-
diately fatal many suffer for years
without giving the trouble medical
attention.
Moreover the rather general impress
sion that a surgical operation is the
only cure has much to do with delay
ing attention until the disease becomes
deep-seated and chronic.
Sufferers from piles should know that
the Pyramid Pile Cure is better than
a surgical operation; it cures without
pain, it causes no detention from busi-
ness, and the cost is trifling. all drug
gists selling it at so cents per package.
The astringent effect Of the acids in
the Pyramid Pile Cure speedily con-
tracts and restores to their natural con-
dition the blood vessels Of the affected
parts, and as it quickly dissolves in
the rectum the remedy soothes and
heals the irritated surfaces, and these
two things are the only necessary re-
quirements for a cure
The principal danger from piles Is
the liability to chronic liberation of the
rectal tissue, and nervous exhaustion
from loss of sleep and the attendant
pain and irritation. All these symp-
toms the Pyramid quickly relieves,
and the fact that it is the most pop
ular and widely sold of any pile cure
is quite conclusive evidence of thor
ough merit. If you suffer from bleed
ing, itching or protruding piles, try
fifty cent package tonight. Ask your
druggist for Pyramid Pile Cure.

review will say: lie meaning Of con-
gress regarding Spain is not in doubt,
but the form of declaration at this
hour is in question. The presidents 5
message has been accepted as a strong
{. ,ement, of the situation and The
question in congress is whether it will
without change adopt his proposal. Pre-
DarAtions for war continue as if it were
inevitable.
There is some hindrance in business,
and yet the volume of payments
through clearing houses is still 1873 per
cert larger than last year, and outside
New York about % per cent larger
than in 1892, though speculative .stagna-
ton here makes the aggregate lower.
New York banks may now realize
that they are strong enough for all pos
sible emergencies and may give the
government valuable aid by greater
freedom in business loans. Sound New
York banks are not in the least alarm
ed about the business situation, nor
have they any occasion for alarm.
The industries are doing well, because
they have enormous orders taken in
February and March, or earlier, which
insure operations for periods varying
from a fortnight to several months.
Eut the new orders, upon which they
have to rely, if partial stopDage or
closing of many works is to be pre-
vented, are just now restricted by ap-
prehension about the money market
and the possibility Of loans.

CARLIsT PROCLAMATION.
Text elf 1t Suppressed by the Censor
at Madrid.

MADRID (via Bayonne. France) April
15.-The action taken by the Spanish
cabinet has confirmed the general be-
lief which has been prevalent here that
war is now inevitable. The warlike tone
of the official note issued by the Span
ish government finds general approval
and creates much excitement.
Contrary to the general opinion thai
the queen regent has been negotiating
for peace at any price, her attitude had
much to do with the firm action of
the cabinet. IT is learned on unques-
tionable authority that the queen re-
gent recently made the following state
ment:
st prefer even the horrors of war,
rather than a tarnish on the prestige
Of the army or an impairment of the
rights of the crown"
Another important fact, undoubtedly,
is Don Carlos manifesto Of which the
following is an extract, which was not
