A Better Way Vow Discovered Which

Many people suffer the pain, annoyance,
and other serious results from piles for
years, and after trying the many lotions,
'salves, ointmcnts, and the many so-called
cures without cure or relief give up the
hope OF final cure, rather than submit to
the intense pain and danger which sur
gical operation involves
Happily, all this suffering Is no longer
necessary since the discovery Of the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure; a remedy which Is APP
proved by medical profession as being alb
solutely safe, free from any trace or
opiates, narcotic, or mineral poisons, and
which may be depended upon as a sure
cure mot only releD for any form OF
piles, whether itching, blind, bleeding, or

cures recently made are little short OF
marvellous, as a perusal Of the following
Will demonstrate.

A RAGE ron BARBARIo JEWELS.
Smart Women Wear Heavy AnI<Iets
Mt the Top of Their Roots

New York, June 2S.-Bracelets and ank-
let's as burdensome in appearance as
shackles. and heavily linked chains are
accepted as the latest mode in jewelry
by well gowned women. They first came
out in Paris last spring, and were worn
exclusively on the ankles, with the short
bicycle skirts that were then fashionable.
When they were imported TO this coun-
try 1t was naturally thought they We're to
be Worn on the wrists but the public eye
Is al last being opened however by two
New York women, who have Just returned
from Paris, and who wear them about
the ankle, or just at the top of the boot
when donning their sporting clothes. II
IS said on good authority that several
other women have already been meas
ured for them. The most beautiful ones
are undoubtedly those that are enameled
or the duh gold ones that are studded
with uncut stones. But one is admissible
and II should be worn on the left foot.
This tendency for massive, barbaric
jewelry is also noticed in the bands of
gold of exquisite Eruscan workmanship
which are worn low on the forehead with
dinner or evening gowns; and in the
heavy chains that fall to The knees after
being wrapped several times around the
throat. Suspended at the end of them,
there is often small. single eyeglass a
dimnuive fan or an odd, little note book.
The revival of this fashion of wearing
chains II is interesting to reflect origi-
mated in Rome at fashionable bazaar for
the benefit of a convent when three long
chains of cut jets were strung by the
nuns and offered for sale. They We're
bought by two New York women and one
French woman. Afterwards, a large de-
mand for them was made in Paris, and
the inventive city was soon taxing its
powers to, present them in numerous
forms and styles. Those made of gun
metal with pearls at regular intervals
are now regarded as one of the newest
and best styles 10 wear.

New York. June 23-The latest inspira-

been a most happy one To enjoy one
