MILEAGE BOOK FIGHT.
Mifwaukee's Refusal to- Refund for
Unused Portions.

Justice of the Peace C. E. Bond. Of
Minneapolis, has filed decision against
the Milwaukee road in a case which
has aroused some little interest. W.
Jarden, Of Philadelphia, in October.
1895, bought 2,00O-mile book from the
Milwaukee road in Minneapolis. Last
August, while in Chicago, Jarden pre-
sented the. empty cover to the railroad
company at its mileage book bureau
and asked for the customary $40 refund.
The clerks in the office declared that
the signatures in the book and those on
the mileage slips were not all Jardens
and refused the refund, wherefore suit
was brought against the company.
The plaintiff claimed that the burden
Of proof rested with the defendant as
the allegations Of violation of contract
had been made by them. C1eghorn, an
expert from the Chicago office, declared
that Jarden had declared all the sig
natures to be his The court held that
the expert testimony was not sufficient
to overweight Jarden's testimony and
entered judgment for SO and costs.
The case will be appealed to the dis
trict court.

A PLAGUE OF THE NIGHT.
ITCHING PILES AND OTHER REC
TAI TROUBLES EASILY CURED
BY A NEW AND SAFE
METHOD.
Remarkable Number of Cures
Made by the Pyramid Pile Cure


About one person in every four suf-
fers from some form of rectal disease
The most common and annoying is
itching piles, indicated by warmth.
slight moisture and intense, uncontroIl-
able itching in the parts affected
The usual treatment has been some
simple ointment or saive which some
times give temporary relief, but moth
ing like a permanent cure can be ex-
pected from such superficial treatment.
The only permanent cure for itching
piles yet discovered is the Pyramid
Pile Cure, not only for itching piles, but
for every other form of piles, blind,
bleeding or protruding. The first appli-
cation gives instant relief and the con-
tinued use for a short time causes q
permanent removal OF the tumors or
the small parasites which cause the in
tense itching and discomfort of itching
piles.
Many physicians for long time sup
posed that the remarkable relief af-
fcrded by the Pyramid Pile Cure was
because it was supposed to contain CO.
caine, opium or similar drugs, but such
is not the case. A recent careful anal
ysis of the remedy showed it to be alb
solutely free from any cocaine, opium,
or In fact any poisonous, injurious
drugs whatever.
For this reason the Pyramid Pile
Cure is probably the only pile cure ex-
tensively recommended by physicians,
because it is so safe, so prompt in the
relief afforded and so far as known the
only positive cure for piles except
surgical operation.
In one year the Pyramid Pile Cure
has become the best known, the safest
and the most extensively sold of any
pile cure before the public.
Nearly all druggists now sell 1t at
scots and 81 per package
Address the Pyramid Co., Marshall,
Mich, for book on cause and cure OF
piles and also hundreds of testimonials
from all parts of the United States.
If suffering from any form of piles
ask your druggist for a package of Ply
ramid Pile Cure and try it tonight.

AFTER HIS MONEY.
Mr.. Hidden, Who Bought u Worth
less Ticket.

Mr. Hidden, the Portland musician. whom
the chicago ticket scalpers attempted to
bunco with some old dead worlds fair tick
cts. has evidently secured the return of his
money. for the following paragraph appeared
Yesterday in one Of the Chicago papers on
the subject:
very angry man spent the greater part
OF yesterday journeying between the city
ticket office Of the Northern Pacific and the
headquarters OF scalper near at hand He
was seeking for the return of $40, and at last
accounts he was continuing the search.
Not being able to get as low rates as he
thought necessary. this man few days ago
bought two Northern Pacific tickets read
ing from st. Paul to Tacoma of a Chicago
broker. When he went to the st. Paul agent
of the road to get them signed it was pointed
out to him that the two tickets were such
as were used by the road during the world 8
fair. and expired with 1893. The broker had
plugged the original date of Limitation and
had extended them indefinitely. The tickets
were signed by a Tacoma agent of the road
who was killed in a street car accident three
years ago.
Not being able to use the tickets, the hold
er Journeyed back to this city to see If he
could get his $40 from the scalper who sold
them to him.

CHICAGO, Jan. 5.-Another meeting
