a REASON FOR IT.
There Is Only One Pile Cure That Hal
Reached National Popularity and
Ranufafior1.

Reached . National Popularity and
Reputation.
There are many popular medi-
cines that are known in every
household in America.
There are blood purifiers, dys-
pepsia cures, and cough cures,
which are sold in every drug store
in the nation and beyond.
But all of these must divide their
popularity with many rivals, no
one remedy has the field to itself,
with the single exception of pile
cures, for it is singular fact that
there Is but one pile cure that can
be considered as having a, national
reputation, without a rival and the
referred to is the Pyramid Pile
Cure which for seven years has
steadily worked into the public ia
vor by reason of it's extraordinary
merit, until it is known from
Maine to California and from Man
itoba to the gulf.
1t is true there are many pile
remedies having small local re-
putation for a>year or two but tho
Pyramid Pile Cure has rapidly
supplanted them all and really has
the field to itself when anything
like national popularity is consid-
cred.
The explanation is simple. 1t is
because piles is in no sense an
imaginary trouble that a bread pill
or simple salve or ointment will
cure, but an obstinate, painful and
often dangerous trouble and a
remedy to give satisfaction must
possess positive and very apparent
merit. A person suffering from
piles will not experiment for
months with a remedy; it must
give relief and cure in short Or
der or it is condemned.
The worst case of piles are re-
lieved on the first application of
the Pyramid and a cure will result
in a reasonable time from its reg
ular use.
Medical men use it in preference
to operations because it is safer,
is perfectly painless and the cost to
patient is a mere trifle as all drug
gists sell the Pyramid Pile Cure
at soc, and it is used at night, it
cures without interfering with reg
ular occupation.
In suffering from any form of
piles, bleeding, itching or pro-
truding, a trial of the Pyramid
will cure you and add another to
its thousands of friends.

"Why, your men raised riot on
shore, and you can assist me in arrest

Spaniard.
Dewey courteously expressed his re-
greet that sailors of the Pensacola
should be lawless while on shore leave,
but could see no way in which he might
assist his visitor In searching out the
guilty ones.
The reply Of Dewey angered the port
captain, and he said peremptorily:
"You certainly can parade your crew
before me, In order that the rioters may
be identified"
Looking aloft and pointing to the
Stars and Stripes waving at the mast
head, Dewey made reply:
"The deck of this vessel is United

In 1892 Capt. Robley D. Evans's ship,

of Valparaiso, and some Gillian revo-
lutionists sought refuge on board.
There were three Gillian menLf-war In
the harbor. The admiral called ON Gap
tain Evans to notify him that If the ref
ugees were not surrendered his three
| ships would follow the Baltimore out of
the harbor and sink her.
Captain Evans ("Fighting Bob'O con-
veyed the warning to his guests and
told them to decide for themselves-for
his part he was ready to protect them
at all hazards. They concluded to re.
main with him, and Captain Evans so
informed the CHILEAN admiral, adding
that as long as they chose to stay he
would protect them.
"Very WELL" replied the admiral
"your ship will be sunk half an hour
after you leave the harbor.''
"That may be true" said Captain Ev-

He had his way, and kept the refu.

HIS ROSES
And the Other Mans Card Lost Him
the Business.

And the Other Mans Card Lost Him
the Business.
How q bunch of roses sold couple
of high-priced railroad tickets Is the
basis of queer little comedy Of errors
enacted last Saturday at leading city
hotel. Among the guests Of the house
was a wealthy Texas merchant, who
was en- route, with his wife, for visit
to New England. The Texan had To-
cal business representative here in the
person Of hustling young man about
town. who was especially anxious to
make the stay Of his principal as pleas
ant as possible. Accordingly he rushed
to a florists as soon as he saw the
names on the register and ordered him
to put up the handsomest bunch Of
roses he had in the shop and send
them over to Mrs. Blank at such-and-
such hotel. In his hurry he forgot to
leave his card for Enclosure, and, sup
posing it was omitted Intentionally, the
florist proceeded to prepare a magnifi-
cent bouquet, which he dispatched
forthwith by messenger. 1t so hap
pened at the moment the flowers ar
rived that city passenger solicitor for
one of the north-bound roads had just
handed over his card to be sent to the
Texas gentleman's apartments, and,
quite naturally, the pasteboard and
the roses went up together. The visi-
tors were both astonished and pleased.
'1This is certainly a princely way Of
soliciting businessP' exclaimed the
merchant examining the flowers.
"Why, these things must have cost all
of $40. Show the gentleman up" The
solicitor was shown up. received most
cordially and given an immediate or
der for through transportation both
ways. He departed, chuckling mer-
rily, but a little dazed by the facility Of
his deal, and puzzled to understand
the many references to his courtesy"
and "thoughtfulness." An hour or so
later the local representative dropped
around, and was met by his employer
in the lobby. The meeting was pain
fully matter of fact. and not word
was said about the flowers. The young
man was greatly chagrined, and began
to believe he had made q bad break.

PEEPS AT DAWSON.
Things Which Make 1t Unique Amor
Cities of the North.


Things Which Make 1t Unique Among
Cities of the North.
In Its simplest geographical setting
Dawson, this Mecca of the north, Is a
settlement of the northwest territory
Of Canada, situated at a point 1900
miles as the crow flies northwest Of
Seattle. says Popular Science Monthly.
1t Is close to, If not quite on, the arctic
circle, and it lies the better part of 300
miles nearer to the pole than does st.
Petersburg in Russia. BY its side one
of the mighty rivers Of the globe hur-
ries Its course to the ocean, but not too
swiftly to permit of 1000 miles of its
lower waters being navigated by craft
of the size Of nearly the largest of the
Mississippi steamers, and 500 miles
above by craft of about half this size.
In its own particular world the longest
day Of the year draws Itself out to
twenty-five hours of sunlight, while the
shortest contracts to the same length
of sun absence.
During the warmer days of summer
the heat feels almost tropical; the win
ter cold is, on the other hand, of almost
the extreme Siberian rigor. Yet a
beautiful vegetation smiles not only
over the valleys, but on the hilltops;
the birds gambol in the thickets, and
the tiny mosquito. either here or near
by, pipes out its daily sustenance to
the wrath Of man. The hungry forest
stretches out Its gnarled and ragged
arms for still another hundred or even
three hundred miles farther to the
north.

Church Store.

The latest scheme of Calvary Epis-
copal Church, New York City, which
already manages a woodward, lodging
house and restaurant, all self-support-
ing, is to open shop for the sale Of
dry goods to the poor on the INSTALL
ment plan. A reasonable price will be
charged for the goods, but 1t will be
far below that asked In other INSTALL
ment stores. A Philadelphia church
made a great success of such a shop
some years ago. 1t is still a source Of
gain to the poor and profit to the
church funds
