About one person in every four
suffers from some form of rectal dis
ease. The most common and an
noying is itching piles. indicated BY
warmth, slight moisture and intense,
uncomfortable itching in The parts
affected.
The usual treatment has been some
simple ointment or salve which
sometimes give temporary relief,
but nothing like a permanent cure
can be expected from such snper-
fetal treatment.
The only permanent cure for
itching piles yet discovered is the
Pyramid Pile Cure, not only for
every other form of piles blind,
bleeding or protrudiHg. The first
application gives instant relief and
the continued use for q short time
causes a permanent removal of the
tumors OF the small parasites which
cause the intense itching and dis
comfort of itching piles.
Many physicians for long time
supposed that the remarkable relief
afforded by the Pyramid Pile Cure
was because it was supposed to
contain cocaine, opium or similar
drugs, but such is not the case. a
recent careful analysis Of tie feme-
dy showed it to Re absolutely free
from any cocaine, opium, or in fact
and poisonous, injurious drugs what
ever.
For This reason the Pyramid Pile
Cure is probably the only pile cure
extensively recommended by physi-
clans, because it is 50 safe SO proinpi
in the relief afforded and SO far Il:
known the only positive care fol-
piles except 4 surgical operation
| IN one year the Pyramid Pile
Cure has become the best known

sold of any pile cure before the
public

BULLION ON HAND
Gage Wants Money to Keep the Minis
Going


WASHINGTON, June 8-secretary Gage
sent to the house a recommendation for the
appropriation of $250.00O for the payment of
the wages of workmen and the contingent
expenses at the minis in coming gold and
subsidiary silver for the next fiscal year,
together with an elaborate statement of the
gold bullion now In the treasury and the
needs for its conversion for prompt use. The
appropriation is to enable the minis to con-
vert a very large part of the gold bullion
now on hand as we'll as to coin and domestic
deposits that will be made. The secretary
calls attention to the $97 900 900 held in the
treasury on June LIST and the apparent ne
cessity for its conversion into coin at an
early date to be applicable for disbursement
from the treasury in case 1t should be re-
quired. The secretary says:
"Of the gold bullion in the treasury $92,-
600 900 is held at the assay offices at New
York and at the mint at Philadelphia, and
to reduce the stock In reasonable time 1t
will be necessary to run overtime at the
Philadelphia mint for several months.
While the stock of gold bullion on hand at
San Francisco at the present time is about
81 500 ,000 it will be increased in July and Au-
gust by receipts from the Klondike, most of
which will be deposited in that institution.
Conservative estimates place the amount
that will be received from the Klondike dur
ing July and August at not less than $12,
600 900 to $4,000 ,00O and it probably will be
necessary to work the mint at San Francisco
overtime two or three months. Especially
will this be necessary should further i'm
portations of gold be made from Australia.

CANADIAN QUESTIONS
Do Not Include Matters in Dispute
With England

WASHINGTON, June S.-A statement
made by Mr.. Curzon in the house of COM
mons yesterday to the effect that negotia-
tions were progressing for settlement OF
all open questions between the United States
and Great Britain has very naturally al
tracted; great deal of attention, and has
been the cause of some very vigorous ca
bling between representatives of the Euro
pean powers stationed at Washington and
their home governments. The Associated
Press has official authority to say that if
Mr.. Curzons statement is accepted as cor
rectly published, it will lead to- misap-
prehension Of the facts. He probably added
the words sin respect to the Dominion of
Canada" as only Canadian questions were
considered.
OF course, however, in order to comply
with diplomatic rules, the negotiations are
between the United States and Great Brit
ain, as Canada cannot appear as princi-
pal in the matter.
The same view as expressed by the off,
Gals here was taken at tine British embas-
sy, where. on inquiry, it was stated there
was clearly a clerical error in the state
ment from the foreign office.

AN ALLIANCE FOR PEACE
WOULD MEAN THE DAWN OF
BETTER DAYS
John Morley Considers an Alliance of
American and British Jingoes an
Inexpressible Calamity

LONDON, June S.-The Rt. Hon. John
Morley, Liberal member of parliament for
Montrose, speaking at Leeds this evening
and referring to the recent speech of the
Rt Hon. Joseph Chamberlain at Birming-
ham on the subject of an Anglo-Saxon alli-
ance, said that he did not believe a word
of all the gloomy talk about Englands
isolation and threatening prospects, unless
she secured an alliance with Germany.
"Englands naval power is gigantic, her
financial resources and credit are tirmer
than ever said Mr. Morley, land the spirit
of her people to repel invasion or to protect
their rights is as great as at the beginning
of the century. The whole country desires
more intimate relations with the United
States, an end always diligently worked for
by Lord Salisbury and Mrs. Gladstone
at is conceivable that a treaty between
Great Britain and the United States could
be entered upon without taking into con-
sideration the Irish vote in America. II
the vote is against the treaty it is not the
fault of the Liberal parry
Proceeding to discuss the kind of alli-
ance intended, Mr. Morley said:
eff it is an alliance for peace and har-
monious cooperation for the mutual good,
But is that what is intended? Or is it to
be an alliance between the jingoes of Amer
lea and the jingoes of England, an alliance,
not for peace, but for menace and war?
I'VE shall see, but I know tens OF thou
sands of the best and wisest men in Amer
lea believe that hardly any more inexpres-
sible calamity can befall mankind than that
a community, as Lincoln nobly said, Con-
ceived in freedom and dedicated to the hap
piness of free and equal men, should en-
tangle itself in the unrest and intrigue of
miitarism, which are the torment and
scourge of the old world
Referring to possible alliance between
England and Germany, Mr. Morley asked:
what are we going to give Germany to
induce her to run risks for the sake of our
trade?
at must be remembered he continued,
that Germany was the great trade rival
of England, and that it was Germany
which started the conflagration in China"
Summing up the whole situation, Mr..
Morley said:
Regarded in the cool and sober common
sense, this policy of alliances In the east
or the west amounts to nothing"
