Pyeamid Pile Cure Cures Piles Quick
ly, Painlessly, Without Danger.
People go along for years suffering
with piles. Then try this, and that
and the other thing; from carrying q
buckeye to getting treatment from a
physician. They obtain temporary re-
lief, maybe, but they are never quite
cured. A little strain in lifting, ex-
cessive fatigue. a little constipation or
q little diarrhoea and the piles come
back.
They don't seem to amount to much,
but they Ibanish sleep and appetite.
No position is comfortable. There is
intense local pain and that dreadful
feeling of weight in the perineum.
Maybe in the early stages some of
the many salves on sale will afford
temporary relief. If the case is of
long standing, there is only one speedy
and sure remedy. 1t is Pyramid Pile
Cure. Even in light cases it is the
safest thing to use. Other applications
may cure and may not. Pyramid Cure
is always certain, always reliable, al
ways brings comfort at once. Its
prompt use saves months of severe
suffering. In extreme cases it will
save surgical operations and their at
tendant dangers and discomforts. It.
is better than knife. Will cure
easier, quicker and safer. Thousands
have used it. Thousands have been
cured by it. The cost is triling COM
pared with what it does. The price is
so cents. Most anybody would gladly
pay ten dollars to be rid of piles.
Druggists sell Pyramid Pile Cure
If yours hasn't it he will get it for you
from the Pyramid Drug Co., of Mar

the few Of those strong dramas
now travelling. 1t now occupies
the place once held by such pro-
ductions as Shore Acres, American

been advanced for this production,
yet no one regretted seeing any
one of the above three produc-
tions, and in fact those who mis-
sed them, afterwards expressed
themselves as sorry they failed to
attend regardless of the prices.
This will be the finest production

A Sad Accident.

Little Sioux, Ia, Jan. lO-Tues-
day, Bert Bryceson, who lives on
the Soldier in jackson Twp, east
of Little Sioux, met with an acci-
dent, resulting in his death. He
went out to cut wood in the tim
Der and not coming in at noon,
his wife noticed the dog had re-
turned 80 she went to look for Ed
and she found him with a large
tree he had fallen, resting across
both limbs. She soon gave the
alarm and doctors from Little
Sioux were sent for, but he died
soon after they arrived. Both
legs were crushed and the femurs
broken and the injury and shock
we're too great for him to survive.
He remained conscious almost to
the last. Bert was one of our
most highly industrious and res
pected farmers, and his sudden
death has caused sadness in many
a heart.--Daily News, Jan. IL.
