Remarkable Success of a New Pile
Cure.

Remarkable Success of a New Pile
Cure.
People who have suffered for months
or years from the pain and incOnVeni-
ence of that common disorder, piles,
win look with skepticism upon the
claims of the makers of the new dis
cOveTy for cure OF all forms of piles,
known under the name of Pyramid Pile
Cure; nevertheless the extraordinary
cures performed by this remedy are
such as to warrant the investigation of
any sufferer. As a case in point the
following letter speaks for itself.
Mr.. Henry Thomas of sub-statiOn No.
8, 'Hosack Ave, Columbus, Ohio, writes
as follows:
Pyramid Drug Co:
Gentlemen:I want you to use my
name if it will be of any use to you. I
was so bad with the piles that I lost
work on that account. Nothing did me
any good. I read in Cincinnati of the
many cures of piles by the Pyramid
Pile Cure and went to a drug store
and asked for it. The drug clerk told
me that he had something else that he
thought was better, but I told him that
I wanted to try the Pyramid first.
The first box helped me so much that
/ tried another and then to complete
the cure used two more boxes, making
four in all. I am now completely cured
Have not trace of piles and I had
suffered for four years with the worst
form of protruding piles.
suffered death from piles, but
have found the Pyramid Pile Cure to
be just as represented. have recon-
mended it to several of my friends and
I am thankful to be able to write you
what good the remedy has done for
me-"
Physicians recommend the Pyramid
Pile Cure because it contains no opium,
cocaine. or mineral poison of any kind,
and because it is so safe and pleasant
to use, being painless and applied at
night. The patient is cured in a sur
prisingly short time with no inconveni-
ence whatever.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by
druggists at so cents per package and
If there is any constipation it is well
TO use the Pyramid Pills at the same
time with the Pile Cure, as constipation
IS very often the cause of piles and the
pills effectually remove the costive con-
dition. Price of pills is % cents per
package.

Now some are tearing their hair over
this great sin and want Lewis Walker
to sit in sack-c!oth and ashes over the
pardonable sin. OF course it was
not exactly right, but if those raising
the howl are SO perfect and pure that
this sin is offensive to them, they have
no business in this wicked world; thei
place is up with st. Peter. Such ideas
of religion make us very, tired.

The Court Hous, was crowded Fri
day night by people f.om all oyer the
county, who came to witness the Old
Bachelors Convention. The first
scene represented a barber shop with
the well-known bachelors of the town
and county making ready to go to the
convention. This part was frst-class
in every particular The second scene
was the convention proper, which was
presided over by Lewis L. Walker,
representing J. Crafty Burnside. 1he
bachelors were represented by young
men about town. Many good hits
were made, though some OF the parts
were exceedingly tame and fell fiat

think that all they had to do was
''ma Ike up" and get on the stage, put
ting no work on what they were tC

pearance. Joe Robinson's aidres-
(repre sen ting Pony Beaz' cyl, was very
good, and took well with the audi
ence, though he was interrupted by
some Smart Alex in the audience, vino
tIisd to "kid" Joe. The aforesaid
Alex was 'callel down successfully
by MIR. Walker.
At the conclusion of the convention
a minstrel show was given by several
young men, assisted by the Lancaster
band. Lewis Walker acted as inter
locutor, with Charley Anderson and
Letcher Owsley on the lends" An
derson and Owsley are certainly first

highly complimented by everybody
who saw it. Their gags" were all

them more enjoyable. The singing OF

joyable features of the evening. This
in a great measure was due to the

by Miss May z. Hughes. This charm
ing little lady very gracefully agreed
to help the boys by playing, as they
had no orchestra, and had it not been
for her kindness, the musical part of
the program would have been a fiat
