The following letter from Mr.. lib.
stark, 1922 Pine ST., Scranton, Pa,
explains itself and will be of interest
to thousands who have suffered the
fortunes. of that common trouble,
hemorrhoids or piles.
Mr.. Stark says: II feel 1t my duty
to write an unsolicited testimonial
regarding the Pyramid Pile Cure.
Since boy 1 have suffered untold
agony from piles. L have tried all
available remedies, consulted many
physicians, but without help or even
relief. L have been employed as q
drug clerk for the past fifteen years,
consequently have been in position
where could try all of the new and
old remedies for piles, but as before
stated to no avail.
About six weeks ago was again
suffering from my old trouble and as
an experiment tried the Pyramid
Pile Cure, and let me say that it gave
instant relief and / am now wholly
cured. / am sure also that the cure
is permanent.
L shall always recommend the Py-
ramid to any one suffering from any
form OF piles and shall do what 1 can
to advance the sale of so excellent o
remedy" Signed H. b. Stark.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is the most
popular and widely known of any
remedy ever offered for piles.
1t is the most popular because 1t Is
the most successful. 1t cures every
form of piles without pain or deten-
tion from daily occupation and con-
taine no opiate or cocaine or any
poisonous or injurious substance.
All druggist sell the Pyramid Pile
Cure at 80 cents for full sized pack
