As the time approached for sailing
Colonel Funston called out from the

Pretty Mrs. Funston laid a small hand
on his shoulder and whispered a word or
two. Funston called again, but in
milder tones; you can take little
not feeling happy. One Of the soulieds
at the gangplank, whom he had ordered
to stand aside, answered him impudent-

AS the swell of the Pacific caught the

The tug with the farewell party on

The suffering and agony endured by
the unfortunate person who is deprived
of his sleep, can only be appreciated by
those to whom a merciIess fate has
brought the same experience. To lie in
bed, minute after minute, hour after
hour, night after night, unable to close
an eye! To roll and toss and thresh
the bed clothes-to walk the floor, back
and forth, to and fro, wishing, longing,
praying for sleep to come and close the
blood shot eyes, and rest the weary
brain! To look ahead and see looming
up in the near future the horrible scep-
tire of threatening insanity-that awful
state in which a person is lost to him
self and to his friends forever-these are
but part Of the agonies endured by the
sleepless one. For all of which there is
no better, safer or surer remedy known
to man than DR.. Niles Restorative Ner-
vine. Nothing in the past has ever
equaled it in power of building up
weakened nerve tissues and giving
strength to the tired body. 1t searches
out the weak parts and gives them new
life and vigor.

spondent plainly has unusual sensitiveness
to the etynology OF words borrowed from
sacred use. There is certainly an unpleas-
ant use of the word, as when we speak of
christening new hat or a new gown
an improperly in more senses than one,
since to christen in any sense means to give
o name to, and not merely to bring out or
use for the first time; but there is excellent
historical justification for speaking of the
ceremony of naming a new ship as the
christening of the vessel. This ceremony
was a solemn rite before the Christian re-
ligion existed, and its survival through all
these centuries seems to prove that 1t has
deep and genuine significance. The Chris
tian religion, perhaps, should not take 1t
amiss that the ceremony has borrowed the
name of Christian rite; it is simply a COM
pliment to the universally of the Christian
religion throughout the countries in which
seafaring and shipbuilding chiefly thrive,
and the testimony to the completeness with
which the worship of Christ has replaced,
with the universal mariner, the worship of
Venus.

Pyramid Pile Cure Cures Piles Quick
~, PainlessIy, without Danger.

People go along for years suffering with
piles. They try this and that and the other
thing, from carrying a buckeye to getting
treatment from a physician. They obtain
temporary relief, maybe, but they are never
quite cured. a little strain in lifting, ex-
cessive fatigue, a little constipation or lit
tie diarrhoae 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 Of 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. 1t is
Pyramid Pile Cure. Even in light cases it
is the safest thing to use. Other applica-
tions 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 eX-
IRENE cases it will save surgical operations
and their attendant dangers ana dlscom-
forts. 1t is better than a knife. Will cure
easier, quicker and safer. Thousands have
used it. Thousands have been cured by 1t.
The cost is trifing compared with what 1t
does. The price is 80 cents. Most anybody
would gladly pay $40 to be rid of piles.
All druggists sell Pyramid Pile Cure.
