groans were fearful to hear during the
death struggle. His powerful consti-

gathered in an adjoining room, was
plunged into the very anguish of grief
by the means from the death chamber.
The despair was intensified by Dr.
Schweninger's absence, although medi-
cal art was unavailing. The only con-
ISOLATION was that the prince was I'M
conscious during the last two hours.
DR.. Schweninger was in time only to
afford some relief in the final moments.
The last words Prince Bismarck ut

time.

the hill opposite the castle, in the vicin-
ity of Hirschgsuppe.

PRINCE BIsMARCK's CAREER.

The Iron Chancellor Who Was Re-
Eponsiblc ForGcrmany's Greatness.
Prime Otto Eduard Leopold Eis-
~ 1lck-Schonhausen was born of an old
NJ e family of the Mark" (Brenden-
bJE) at Schcnhauscn, April /, 1915. He

Stiles of GottinEen and Griofswald.
spent some time in the army, and sub
sequently settled down as a country
gentleman. Brought up in the political
faith of the Junkers, or Prussian Tory
squirearchy, he became, in 1886 men,
Der Of the provincial diet of Saxony,
and of the Prussian diet, in which he
first attracted attention by his fiery
speeches in defense of the old mon
archial party. During the revolution
ary period of 1S4S the services he rem
dered in the public debates to the con-
servative cause led to his appointment
as the representative of Prussia in the
diet of the old German bund at Frank
fort. Austria was then all powerful
In the German bund. From the time
of Bisn,arcss appearance, however, the
voice cf Prussia began to have increas-
ing weight. The successful audacity
with which he checkmated Austrian
intrigue at Frankfort was the source
of constant irritation at Vienna, and
naturally tended to produce some es-
arrangement between the Austrian and
Prussian courts.
Bismarck was sent as ambassador
to st. Petersburg in 1850, and held that
position until 1862. In May, 1862 he
became Prussian ambassador at Paris.
Five months later he was made first
minister of the Prussan crown With
in the next ten years he humbled the
Austrian empire, destroyed the French
empire and treated the new German
empire. lie temodeed the map of Eu-
rope, dismemhering Denmark and
France. He enlarged the frontiers of
Prussia by the annexation of various
provinces, including the dominions of
three dethroned German princes, and
succeeded in placing Germany. which
had previously been the weakest and
least respected of all the great powers,
at the head Of all the states Of Europe.
In 1868 Bismarck withdrew for some
months from active public We, but he
was In power again before TIE end Of
the year. Then came the Franco-Ger-
man war of 1870 and after campaign
consisting of an unbroken series Of
victories, largely due to the strategic
genius Of Count Won Moltke, King
william was able. through, his chan
cellor to dictate terms of peace to his
helpless assailant.
OF the events in Prince Bismarck's
life subsequent to the Franco German |
war, 1t may be mentioned that he pre-
sided at the congress of Berlin In 1879 |
and 1850, and the colonial conference Of |
1884.

ONE OF THE BEST FEATURES
Of the Pyramid Pile Cure.

Is the fact that 1t cures every form of
piles without one particle of pain. This
desirable point Is not obtained by the
use of injurious opiates which simply
deaden and paralyze the nerves OF the
parts and make matters worse in the
long run. But it is done solely by its
remarkable healing and soothing eff
fects.
And while It thus gives immediate re-
lief. at the same time the disease is not
merely checked, but a radical cure is
rapidly accomplished.
And the point we want to make clear
is that all this is done without a particle
of pain.
This fact is one reason for the great
popularity of the Pyramid Pile Cure
and constitutes one very great differ
ence between it and almost any other
kind of treatment for piles.
Every kind of surgical operation for
piles is excruciatingly painful besides
endangering the life Of the patient and
in most cases is not to be compared
with the Pyramid Cure, either in max
Gn cheapness and safety.
The Pyramid Pile Cure has been be-
fore the public too long, and its merits
recognized by too many people to allow
it to be classed with the many salves,
suppositorieS, pills, etc, and you run no
risk in trying it, as is often the case
with new and untried preparations.
If you are ever troubled with any
form of piles or rectal disease do not
forget the Pyramid Pile Cure. Pre-
pared by the Pyramid Drug Co., Mar
shall, Mich, and sold by druggists at 90
cents per package.
