A PLAGUE OF THE NIGHT.
ITCHING PILES AND OTHER RECTAL,
TROUBLES EASILY CURED BY A
NEW AND SAFE METHOD.
4 Remarkable Number of Cures Made by
the PYRAMID Pile Cure.

the Pyramid Pile Cure.
About one person in every four suffers
from some form of rectal disease. The
most common and annoying is itching
piles. indicated by warmth, slight moist
ure and intense. uncomfortable itching in
the parts affected.
The usual treatment has been some
simple ointment or salve which some
times give temporary relief. but nothing
like a permanent cure can he expected
from such superficial treatment.
The only permanent cure for itching
piles Vet discovered is the Pyramid Pile
Cure. not only for itching piles, but for
every other form of piles, blind. bleed
ing or protruding. The first application
gives instant relief and the continued
use for short time causes 4 permanent
removal Of the tumors or the small para
sites which cause the intense itching and
discomfort of itching piles.
Many physicians for a long time sup
posed that the remarkable relief afford
ell by the Pyramid Pile Cure was because
il WIS supposed TO contain cocaine,
opium or similar drugs. but such is not
the case. = recent careful analysis Of
the remedy showed it TO be absolutely
free from any cocaine, opium, or in fact
any poisonous injurious drugs whatever.
For this reason the Pyramid Pile Cure
Is proba bly, the only pile cure extensively
recommended by physicians. because il
IS so safe, so prompt in the relief afford
Ell and so far as known the only positive
cure for piles except q surgical opera
tton.
n one year the Pyramid Pile Cure has
become the best known, the safest ard
the most extensively sold of any pile cure
before the public.
Ne&rly all druggists now sell it at 50
Cts and 81 per package.

enough during the early twilight of Christmas eve, but as night came on and there were only shadows and stiffness in the great house where lights had gleamed and children's merry laughter had filled their halls, the de- pression became so overpowering that l began to feel as if a crisis were ap- preaching and that something was go- ing to happen to make a great change, either for the better or for the worse, and end the painful chapter. Once or twice as the evening dragged slowly along and the streets became still, 1 started nervously and gazed anxiousiy at the chimney place, feeling sure that Santa Claus would come down that way, or if he did not I would very soon go of in fit of mysteries. If you have never had such an experience, you should pray that you never do. About midnight, and just minute or two before the bells of the city rang out their Christmas welcome to the day, I ventured to suggest that probably they would find some forgetfulness in sleep, and as l did SO I arose and with me the mother stood up, leaving her hus- band sitting with bowed head. She stepped forward to touch him and, as her hand was laid upon his shoul-

Growth of the Soul.

Though times and seasons are not as important as many would have us think, still nearly every thoughtful person at the coming of a new year remembers how old he is and wishes he were not quite so old. Let us turn our minds away from the tabernacle of flesh, the least real thing in our lives, and think little of the inward growing old. For the body every add ed period is loss; for the soul every added growth is almost incalculable gain. How old are we? How much older than a year, two years, ten years agog How much quicker to recognize the Divine voice? How much stronger our hand and clearer our voice against evil? How much swifter our feet to bear the message of good will to men? How much gain has there been in pow CT and willingness to serve? How much more faithful are we in the chaos of small and common duties and cares? How much truer are we in friendship, warmer in the home loves, more pa- tient with the mistaken and the bad? Round our tree of life, as it has strug- gled up toward the sky, whether it bear the spring buds or the sum- mer green, or the dead russet of the

cry whose gladness cannot be de- scribed, heran to me and, snatching the baby from it's covering, he kissed it and laid 1t down on the bosom of his wife with its fat little fists digging into her cheeks and neck. 1 don't know, nor does anything human, what the baby's power IS, but in a minute the woman began to stir uneasily, and to move her hands about as if search ing for something, and then, with a cry like her husbands for gladness, she opened her eyes and her arms, and the baby, with satisfied coo, cuddled close to the mothers breast.
 That was the crisis, and as the father dropped beside the side of his wife with the child in bis arms, and prayed fervently, broke down com pletcly and cried as if all the sorrow in the world instead of all it's gladness had come into that lonely house this Christmas eve. So they called the baby Santa Claus, and as she grew up she became indeed, as you say, a veri- table Santa, bringing only good things to all the world that lay about her."
 "And do they know nothing of her?" l asked.
 Everything" she answered. "Her mother was widowed relative of the

For, weeks the father and mother refused to be comforted, nor would they go away to other scenes. There the little one had filled their hearts and lives and there. they insisted, should the empty shell remain. Elsewhere in the world there was nothing; in that spot were, at least, the memories of their idolized one. I was with them a great deal, and as often as I could I sent my own children to visit them, and from these and other playmates of their lost one they derived much comfort. But I

Instantly her husband was bending over her, and telling me to go at once for doc tor who lived directly opposite. I ran away in obedience, quite forgetting the cause of all the disturbance. Jerk ing open the front door, I almost stum- bled over a basket sitting there, and then nearly tainted, too. You men never know why women do such things as they do, but they do them just the same, and the minute I saw that bas- ket I knew what was in it, and 1 knew that there wasn't any need of going after the doctor then. And I didn't. I simply picked up the basket and car ried it back to where the stricken mother lay, with her husband over her, chafng her hands and kissing her white face as his tears fell upon it.
 Without a word to him, I opened tho white silken flannel which was folded thickly all over the precious package within, and as I dug down into the soft folds I found something warm, and then I came to a bit of filmy lace, and under that the sleeping face of baby, six or seven months old. I turned up the light and the baby opened it's big blue eyes won- deringly and, with chubby fist held up at the light, it crowed as only a baby can crow. The man leaning over the woman had not even noticed my return, but this baby's crow was to him like call from some other land, and he turned toward me. With a

Christmas in New York.

Jacob A. Riis, in an article in the Century Magazine on Merry Christ mas in the Tenements," says:
 In hundred places all over the city, when Christmas comes, as many open air fairs spring suddenly into life. A kind of Gentle Feast of the Taber- nacles possesses the tenement districts especially. Green-embowered booths stand in rows at the curb, and the voice of the tin trumpet is heard in the land. The common source of all the show is down by the North river, in the district known as "the Farm" Down there Santa Claus establishes headquarters early in December and until past New Year. The broad quay looks then more like a clearing in pine forest than busy section of the metropolis. The steamers dis charge their loads of fir trees at the piers until they stand stacked noun. tain high with foothills of holly and ground-ivy trailing of towards the land side. An army.train of wagons is engaged in carting them away from early morning till late at night; but the green forest grows, in spite of it all, until in places it shuts the shipping out of sight altogether. The air is redolent with the smell of balsam and pine. After nightfail, when the lights are burning in the busy market, and the homeward-bound crowds with baskets and heavy burdens of Christ mas greens jostle each other with good-natured banter-nobody is ever cross down here in the holiday season it is good to take a stroll through 'the Farm" if one has a spot in his heart faithful yet to the hills and the woods in spite of the latter-day city. But it is when the moonlight is upon the water and upon the dark phantom forest, when the heavy breathing of some passing steamer is the only sound that breaks the stiffness of the night, and the watchman smokes his lonely pipe upon the bulwark, that "the Farm" has a mood and an at- mosphere all it's own, full of poetry, which some day painters brush will catch and hold.
