COMMON SENSE CURE
Remarkable Remedy Which is Bringing
Comfort to Thousands of Sufferers

Probably one-haf the people who see this
article suffer from piles.
1t is one of the commonest diseases, as
well as one of the most obstanate and pain
full
People suffer from piles for years and just
because it is not Immediately fatal they
neglect 1t.
Carelessness causes no end OF suffering
Carelessness about so simple a thing as
piles has frequently caused death.
Hemorrhages occur from no apparent
cause, and the loss of blood causes death.
Surgical operations for piles often cause
DEATH Piles are simple in the beginning
and easily cured!
They can be cured even in the worst
stages without pain, loss of blood or deten-
ton from business. And the remedy which
will do it surely and completely is the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure.
1t allays the itching and inflammation
Immediately, heals the irrltated surfaces,
and after regular use for a short time re-
moves the swelling and puts the rectal
membrane into sound, healthy condition.
The Pyramid Pile Cure cures all forms
of piles thoroughly and permanently.
A great many pile remedies contain CO.
cane, morphine and similar dangerous
drugs to quiet the pain and make the pa
tient believe he is getting well. but their
action Is temporary and 1t requires no ar
gument to show the danger of using such
remedies.
The Pyramid Pile Cure contains no CO.
cane narcotic, nor any poisonous drug
whatever, and it is so far ahead of any
other pile remedy for safety and efficiency
as not to be mentioned in the same class.
Any sufferer from piles who will write the
Pyramid Drug Co. of Marshall, Mich. may
receive a valuable little book on the nature
and cure of piles, sent free by mail
Or better yet, ask any druggist in the
United States what is the safest and surest
pile cure and he will say the Pyramid.
All druggists sell full sized packages of
the Pyramid Pile Cure at 50 cents. They
cure itching piles, protruding, bleeding or
any form of this common and troublesome
disease.

PRESIDENT WARNER
CONFIRMS REPORT
Republic Company VIII Build
New Furnaces at Thomas.
THE OUTLOOK ENCOURAGING
Pioneer Property Looked Upon as One
of the Best Holdings Earnings
Have Been Entirely Sat
isfactory to Officers

Some time since The Age-Herald stated
that the Republic Iron and Steel company
would build two new blast furnaces in this
district. President r. S. Warner of that
company now confirms the report. In an
interview he makes the following official
statement:
We have contracted for our raw material
for our blast furnaces, such as coke, lime
stone, ETC., to January 1, 1901, our ore sup
ply for our furnaces being covered from
our own mines. We are also largely COW
cred ON raw material for our mills TO July
l, 1900.
Our monthly sales are keeping pace with
our production, and the outlook is most
encouraging.
The physical condition of our mills has
been greatly improved since they We're
turned over to us May 1st, and extraordi-
nary repairs dlave been made at quite
number of our large plants. All of these
repairs have been charged up to operating
expenses. As many of these repairs will
last for some years, we could properly
have distributed these charges through a
period of months. We consider 1t wiser
to have all expenses for repairs absorbed,
from time to time as they are made, with
the operating expenses as we will get the
full benefit in results later on.
Il am pleased to report satisfactory pro-
gress on the Bessemer steel plant at our
Brown Bonnell works at Youngstown, o.

As stated in yesterdays Age-Herald, an
election for mayor and aldermen of Jasper
was held on Tuesday, September -, con-
trary to the provisions of the city charter,
which require the election to be held on
Monday. Later when the mistake was dis
covered the board ordered a new election
for October g. The election was held and
the mayor, with two of the old board, were
reelected. When the time for eanvassing
the vote arrived they refused to particle
pate, claiming that it would be Illegal for
them to do so.
The board elected at the October election
went before Judge Coleman, of the circuit
court, and petitioned him to issue writ of
mandamus against the three members of
the old board who had refused to partici-
pate in a count of the vote.
The defendants demurred to the petition
on the ground that it should have been
directed against the entire board, and not
the individual members.
Argument was begun Friday morning and
ended yesterday afternoon, at the conclu-
sion of which Judge Coleman rendered his
decision sustaining the demurrer.
If the board-elect wishes to prosecute the
contest further they will have to file new
petition with the court and join all of the
old board as defendants.

DEED FILED
Conveying University Lands to the Sloss
Company

The purchase by the Soss-Shefied Iron
and Steel company of the University of
Alabama lands, about which so much has
been written recently, is now matter of
record.
The deed of conveyance has been filed in
the office of probate of Jefferson county.
A copy of the resolution adopted by the
board Of trustees at the called meeting
OH September % authorizing the sale was
filed with the deed The resolution de-
scribes the lands sold, and reads as fol-
lows:
Resolved, That the board of trustees
OF the University of Alabama does hereby
sell to the Sioss-Sheffield company, or to
Sol Haas, as trustee of such company,
$40 acres, more or less, of land of the
University, in township 10, range 6; town
ship 16, range 6; township 16, range Z; and
also 1,0i0 acres, more or less, in township
is, ranges and 6, and township 10, range
5, for the sum of $3.50 per acre net to the
University, and on such terms as may be

one-nalf cash, deferred payments to bear
per cent interest. The deed to be ex-
ecuted by the governor of the state as the

corporate seal of the University"

Most of the foundations are completed and
THE balance we'll under way. We are in
staling in this plant great deal of labor
saving machinery, and unless we have I'M
usual delays, we hope to he making steel
there some time in March.
We are adding an additional 25-ton open
hearth furnace to our open hearth at Min
neapolis. This will increase our output of
open hearth steel at this plant very materi-
ally. We expect to have this ready for OPP
Grafton by February l.
On our Pioneer property at Thomas, Ala,
we commenced mining coal from our Say
reton mine (Which is the New Castle vein
of coaD in September. We also open
ing up the Pratt vein of coal and hope to be
able to ship coal from this mine within 80
days.
We are going to build two additions blast
furnaces on this property On account of
ability to get blowing engines for anything
like near by delivery, we can hardly ex-
pect to have the first furnace in operation
before some time next fall
We are also opening up additional ore
mines on this property.
This property has been carefully exam
ined by several of our executive committee
and all of our reports from them are very
enthusiastic. This property, when fully
developed will have great earning capacity,
having abundant ore, coking coal and lime
stone to supply four furnaces for many
years. Pig iron can be made there at very
low cost, under any conditions, owing to
the fact that labor Is the only element that
can increase the cost of production on ac-
count of the abundant supply of raw ma
terial.
Our production of finished iron and steel
from May 1 to October 81 inclusive was
SS,994 tons.
Our production of muck mar from May
1 to October 81 inclusive was All tons.
The age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1897-1902, 1899-12-03

Our output of pig iron from May l to Oc-
tober 81 inclusive was 1859 tons
Our average daily output of pig iron since
November / has been 1920 tons per day.
The output of the six furnaces taken over
by our company has been increased quite
largely over what they were making prior
to the time they were turned over to u.s.
and are now making at the rate of over
400, 900 tons per day.
The earnings of the company so far al
ready exceed considerably the requirements
for preference dividend for the entire year.
and in view of the contracts made for fu-
ture delivery and of the raw material Sc
cured to fill them, there can he no doubt
that the earnings of the first year will
leave very large surplus over and above
the amount of the annual preference divi-
dend.
