slightly overdrawn, but it is quite
certain that at least one in every
four persons is s, afflicted.
Because it is common and not
Immediately fatal many suffer for
years without giving the trouble
any medical attention.
Moreover, the rather general i'm
preston that surgical operation
is the only cure, has much to do
with delaying attention until the
disease becomes deep seated and
chronic.
Sufferers from piles should know
that the Pyramid Pile Cure is bet
ter than surgical operation, 1t
cures without pain, it causes no
detention from business and the
cost is trifiing. all druggists sell
ing it at so cents per package.
The astringent effects of the
acids in the Pyramid Pile Cure
speedily contracts and restore to
their natural condition the blood
vessels of the affected parts, and
as it quickly dissolveS in the rec
tum, the remedy soothes and heals
the irritated surfaces, and these
two things are the only necessary
requirements for a cure.
The principal danger from piles
is the liabilities to chronic ulcer
alton of the rectal tissue, and ner-
vous exhaustion from loss of sleep
and attendant pain and irritation.
All these symptoms the Pyramid
quickly relieves and the fact that
it is the most popular and widely
sold of any pile cure is quite con-
elusive evidence of thorough merit.
If you suffer from bleeding, itch
ing or protruding piles try fifty
cent package tonight. Ask your
druggist for Pyramid Pile Cure.

IAN OUTRAGE"
Attorney of Chicago Indignant at the
Presidents Action.

CHICAGO, Sept. 30.-Attorney Frank Z
Blair, who assisted in defending Captain
Carter, was visibly affected as he read the
Washington dispatch announcing that
President Mckinley had approved the
finding Of the court martial. He eXclaim-
ed: 1T is an outrage. it IS equal TO the
Drevfus case. This is the first intimation
| have had of the approval of the Presi-
dent. l see this is an Associated Press
dispatch and ! guess il must be true. The
case is now beyond legal Intervention. as
the verdict stands and cannot be changed.
MY opinion OF the matter never has
changed. and | think never will be. 1t is
a conspiracy. The court martial wilfully
and fagrantly dlsobeyed the law.
Testimony which should never have
been admitted was accepted, and that
which was clearly entitled 10 be brought
in was excluded.
Captain Carter was convicted on per-
jured testimony as the defense clearly
proved. Dreyfus was condemned on hear
say. Wherein lies the difference? The
principal witness for the prosecution was
easily caught in the REORGANIZATION,
and yet he was allowed to go, and on his
testimony alone Captain Carter was con-
demned. This injustice to an innocent
man shows that the court martial is utter
ly Unfit TO grapple with the questions in
volved in a case of this kind.
"In my estimation. a majority OF the
members OF the court martial were honest
I'm their belief OF Captain Carriers guilt.
They were induced 10 md the captain
guilty, I'm the main. because or perjured
testimony Of the government witnesses"
