Way But Onc-Pyramid Pile Cure Wi
Cure Him; Give Instant Relief.
Just little pain may SO distract
a mans life that it will cost him
hundreds of dollars Life is a bat
tie. To succeed one needs all his
energies and all his brain force to
apply TO the question at hand.
Even a corn will make him irrit-
able, cross, angry-and an angry
man seldom succeeds. The trifiing
pain of corn is a pleasant feel
ing besides the agonizing ache of
piles. That is a pain which seems
to preyade the whole body. 1t
communicates itself to all parts
near the seat of the trouble and
brings on a heavy dragging feeling
in the perineum. Those who do
not so suffer do not know what it
means. 1t racks the nerves, pre-
vents sleep, prevents concentrated
thought and makes a man lose
flesh as fast as he would with
Yirulent fever.
And yet piles are looked upon as
a little thing. They are neglected
allowed to run on from month TO
month and from year TO year. BY
and by comes a surgical operation.
Maybe it cures-maybe it kills.
There is only one sure, safe and
quick cure for piles. 1t is the Pyr-
amid Pile Cure. 1t is a recent dis
covery and its properties are such
that it cleanses, soothes and heals
the infiamed parts, reduces the in
fammatiOn at once and with con-
tinued treatment, removes all
swelling and all trace OF disease.
1t puts the membranes in a heal
thy active condition and cures
completely and permanently.
From G. F. Collins, Garnet: Il
commenced using the Pyramid Pile
Cure, but my case was so bad that
| was afraid the remedy would fail,
but before | had used two-thirds of
a package | began to feel much
better and can honestly say | am
entirely cured. 1t is the quickest
and surest remedy have ever heard
of
From Josiah Roberts, Port Dram,
N. j.: Just one-quarter of
package of the Pyramid Pile Cure
did wonders for me and have lost
no opportunity of recommending
such a wonderful remedy
From VIM. McHale, Rockport,
Mass: Cone package of Pyramid
Pile Cure has helped me more than
anything | have yet used"
Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by

That bushes is more active than it
has been for number of years is very
apparent to those who witness the
daily scenes in the various railroad
yards, about the wharf, and in the
wholesale and jobbing districts of the
city. And leading merchants say the
volume would be much larger could the
goods asked for by retailers both in
and out of the city be supplied. The
scarcity is particularly felt in many
staple dry goods, but extends to some
degree to many branches of trade.
Even at advances ten, fifteen and even
twenty per cent. above those ruling at
the first of the year orders cannot be
filed simply because the material is
not in existence, and cannot be turned
out for months to come. That this is
true of most manufactures of iron and
steel is well known, but that it extends
to other lines is less extensively recog-
nized.
Tours through the wholesale district
of this city day by day demonstrate
that there is an immense exchange of
commodities going on. The depots are
piled high with freight, teamsters have
all they can do, and the sidewalks in
front of the big business houses are
often so encountered with incoming
and outgoing merchandise that the
pedestrian has to either pick his way
carefully over and through bales and
boxes, or take to the street. The stu
alton is an anamolous but satisfac-
tory one; how long it will continue is
another question. Business men are
making hay while the sun shines,
however, and consequently are in a
happy frame of mind.

TIE DECISION POSTPONED
Until To-day In the Barratry Pro
ceebings Against McCulley.

NOON-FOURTEN WITNESSES
EXAMINED OTHER CRIMINAL
HAPPENINGS YESTERDAY In
THE MINOR COURTS
The hearing OF State VS.. ]. E. w. Nc
Culley, continued from April IS, came
up before Justice Greer yesterday at
ternoon. The charge is barratry and
was preferred by H. E. Bachman It
will be remembered that this case, like
the one on the same charge on which
w. ]. Colts is now under bond for APP
pearance before the grand jury, IS the
outcome Of the case against H. E..
Bachman, which was brought by w. j.
Colts as attorney for one Mr.. Clark, =
New York commission merchant.
The hearing continued the greater
part of the afternoon. Attorney Dry
den appeared for the prosecution. and
Attorney Ryan for the defense. Four
teen witnesses in all were examined,
most of whom were for the prosecu-
ton.
The prosecution made an effort to
connect McCulley with the famous tax
cases brought recently by Informer
Bird, and with the prosecution of the
complainant in the case recently
brought by Mr.. Clark, and with sever
al other alleged barratrous pro-
ceedings in capacity otherwise than a
mere attorney.
The defendant, on the stand, denied
all connections with any of the cases
cited by the prosecution, otherwise than
that of an attorney employed merely
to look after the interests legally OF
his employer.
At the conclusion of the testimony
by mutual consent the decision was
left with the justice without argument.
Justice Greer postponed his decision
until this afternoon at o'clock.

The success that has attended our past

has served to infuse into our system
boundless energy and courage to creep
along our well-chosen lines. And great
strides we are making. Not many days

out on his Fall Bargain hunting tour.
He did it and succeeded! Years of study
and experience. constant attention to
business, knowledge of every nook and
corner in the manufacturing and whole

and last, but not least, the powerful cash
buying system formed the grand combi-
nation that stood by him on this occasion
in securing First-class Merchandise at
practically his own prices. During his
recent journey to New York and Balti-

stocks of needy and pinched manufac-
turers, amounting to thousands of dollars,
at about 5oc on the dollar of the manu-
facturer's prices. Now comes your turn

Sidewalks of New York.

There are two scenes in "The Side
walks OF New York." the comedy drama
to be presented here tonight, which have
received the unstinted praise of the press
One is the lifelike picture in the second
act, of Herald Square after dark showing
the beautiful New York Herald building
illuminated as it appears nightly. The
scene IS pronounced by the Herald the
most perfect picture OF New York street
ever placed upon the stage. The build
ing itself is given in every graceful de-
tail, to the moving OF the illuminated
clock, the owls blinking from the Italian
cornices, and the bronze figures of ST.
Mark hammering out the midnight hour.
All the varied human types that can be
seen in that part of the famous Tender
loin' district of which is truly said 1.-THE
world never goes to bed are here de-
lineated. Hardly less effective is the
representation of an old distillery and
shot tower by the East River in the next
act. Here a woman is thrown into the
river. The hero dives headforemost
from the tower to her rescue. This ex
citing climax is effected by the cham
pion high diver of the world. exchanging
places with the real hero for the moment.
There is a rich vein of humor as well as
pictureque and sensational elements in
