MERIT MAKES IT FAMOUS.
The Only Remedy in the World, Ex.
cept Surgical Operation, That
Will Certainly Cure Any
Form of Piles.

The study of physicians, the expert
ments OF chemists, the loudly adver-
tised pretenslons OF quacks, have been
for years expended in one direction;
to find n pile cure that will cure.
The results have been a number of
harmless, and in moet cases useless
ointments, suppositories and even in
ternal remedies, which the public have
weighed in the balance of experience
and found wanting; nearly all of them
gave some relief. but nothing approach
ing "A radical cure resulted from these
preparations.
The remedy required is one that i'm
mediately stops the pain so severe in
most cases of piles and then by con-
tracing the small blood vessels (capn-
laries) to their normal size, produces
a radical cure by reducing and finally
absorbing the tumors and healing the
intlamed, raw mucous surfaces.
Until two years ago, no such remedy
had been produced, but at that time
suppository was placed upon the
market which has since proven itself
to be the long sought permanent cure
for this common and distressing trouble
1t has rapidly become famous through
is now sold by nearly all druggists un-
der the name of the Pyramid Pile Cure.
1t is now the best known, because its
merit and safety have advertised it
wherever used. 1t has been advertised
by word of mouth, from Sne sufferer to
another; people who had tried every
thing else, even submitting to painful
and dangerous surgical operation with
out avail finally have found that piles
may be cured without pain and without
expense, practically, as the Pyramid
Pile Cure Is sold for the nominal price
of so cents and $1.0O per package.
The Pyramid instantly stops all pain
and at the same time contain no cocaine
morphine or narcotics: the acids and
healing properties contained in the re-
medy speedily remove, cause health
full, natural contraction and absorption
of tumors; it will cure any form of
rectal trouble except cancer and ad-
vanced fistula, which by the way.
nearly always result from neglecting
proper and timely treatment for piles.
