GIVES SATISFACTION.
a Certain Cure for piles.

The Pyramid Pile Cure is a success be-
cause it has the merit which brings sue
cess. 1t cures every form of piles and
cures them to stay cured. 1t is now the
most popular and best known pile remedy
before the public, and one reason for its
great popularity is because it has taken
the place of surgical operations, once con-
sidered the only sure cure.
People often wonder that so simple
remedy will SO promptly cure such an OBJ
stinate trouble as piles are well known TO
be. Yet the greatest remedies and Creates
inventions we have are the simplest. and
the fact that it does cure is all the sufferer
from piles wants to know.
The Pyramid Pile Cure cures piles in any
stage of the disease as shown by the fol-
lowing testimonial letters which are pub
lished every week and new cases reported
each time:
From George C. Gieck, Owens Mill. Mo-:
Some time ago l bought a package of
Pyramid Pile Cure for my wife, who had
suffered very much. The first trial did her
more good than anything she had ever
tried. 1t is just as represented"
From Richard Loan, Whipple. Ohio: 81
have used the Pyramid and am entirely
pleased and satisfied with results. 1t does
the work and no mistake"
Mr.. w. r. Hines. of Magnolia, Ark
says: Although | have used the Pyramid
Pile Cure only a very short time, yet it
has been very beneficial to me-"
From Mrs Peter Lake. Mohawk. n. Y:
Il received the Pyramid Pile Cure. but put
off using ii until last week. when / be-
came so bad / decided to try it. / have
suffered twenty-nine years with bleeding
piles and have used great deal of medi-
cine. but never had anything that did so
much for me as your remedy"
The proprietors OF this remedy could
publish columns of similar letters to the
above il necessary, but these are enough TO
show what it will do in different cases.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by
the Pyramid Drug Company. OF Marshall,
Mich, and for sale by druggists every
where at so cents per package. One pack
age is sufficient TO cure any ordinary case.
Your druggist will tell you more about 1t.

Alarming Reports Received From

White People Falling Victims to the

GERS Urged to Use the Greatest
Vigilance TO Prevent the Mall
ady From Entering This Country.

Further information received by the Ma
riIe Hospital Service from the seat Of the
recent appearance of the bubonic plague in
South America today indicates that the
disease is spreading, despite the efforts of
the medical authorities to control it. A
cablegram has been received from 1nspec-
tor Wavelburg in Brazil saying that sew
eral deaths have -ocecurred from the
plague, and that the autopsies disclosed the
fact that the disease is of the same char
ter as that found in India.
Surgeon General Wyman is taking every
precaution to prevent its admission into
this country. Numbers of kilograms TO
quarantining officers urging vigilance were
sent out this morning.
A report from Consul Campbell, who is
stationed at Port Louis, Mauritius, says
that the plague has appeared there, and is
on the increase. II has also assumed in
the course of its development a new phase.
1t has been discovered from recent cxami-
nations that the new form of the disease
is of a very contagious character.
The first victim of the new form was a

to be attacked by any form of the malady.
heretofore considered themselves invulner-
able against contracting the disease, but
recently this Impression has been dispelled
Many of the white people there have died
of the disease, though nothing has been
said OF these fatal cases.
Mr.. Johnson's death from the plague, is
said 10 have caused panic. A government
council was hastily called, and the
MaUritius Turf Club races. which consti-
tute very important feature in the social
life OF the colony, were postponed and all
forms OF enterprise abandoned.
A question of indemnity has arisen out
of this. which it is claimed is quite a seri-
Gus menace 10 the Government. The horses
that were entered for the racing season
were imported from Australia at a great
expense, and it is said the postponement
OF the race will react on the government
in the form of several suits for damages
The merchants are also very much dis
satisfied as large quantities of goods have
been imported which they say would have
found an early market had the races &C.
