DOES THE WORK.

No Surgical Operation. No Pain. Tri1iD
Expense-A simple, Harmless REM
edy, But it Does the Work.
There are some people who have
piles as frequently and regularly as
other people have colds.
Any little bowel trouble will
bring them on, any extra exertion,
as in lifting, will produce them,
and in fact will often appear with
out any parent provocation. Piles,
however, are much more serious
than cold, as the tendency Is all
ways to grow worse until the trou-
bic become deep seated and chron-
ic, or develops into some fatal rec
tai disease.
While there are many pile reme-
dies which give relief, yet there is
but one which not only gives in
slant relief but at the same time
makes a permanent cure, and that
is the well known Pyramid Pile
Cure.
This remedy Is composed of SIM
pie, harmless vegetable ingredients,
but combined so effectively and
act SO promptly and thoroughly
that it cures every form of piles
whether itching, blind, bleeding or
protruding.
In long standing cases the Py-
ramid Pile Cure has proven to be
the only certain cure except sur
gical operation, and it's advantages
over an operation are many, as it
is painless, causes no delay or in
reference with daily occupation
and last but not least, it is cheaper
than any surgical operation could
possibly be.
The cases that the Pyramid Pile
Cure will not reach are so few that
physicians are doing away with
operations for piles and depending
upon this cheap but effective rem
edy to accomplish complete cure,
and it never disappoints except in
cases beyond the reach of medical
skill.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is pre-
pared by the Pyramid Drug Co.,
of Marshall, Mich, and for sale by
druggists everywhere at 80 cents
per package. Each package con-
tains a treatise On cause and cure
of piles, together with testimonials
from every section of this country.

HBS ACCOMP[gES.
Police Think RObt. Richardson is q
Tool for Shrewd Criminals.
COMMITTED TO JAIL ON A PETTY
LARCENY CHARGE-A GRAVER
ONE WILL BE LAID AGAINST
HIM AS SOON AS THE EVIDENCE
is WORKED UP-OTHEH JUS
TICE COURT ITEMS.

Robert Richardson, who was arrest
ed Friday night by Police Officer VIM.
Turner, was yesterday committed to
Jail in default of 5000 bond by Justice
Rogers on petty larceny charge OF
obtaining money under false pretense
The police are at present working up
evidence against him to bring later the
more serious charge of uttering forged
paper. The only person Richardson
secured money from on the bad paper
in his possession was Mrs. Mary Dono-
van, who keeps a grocery store on Sew
enteenth street. On a check for $3.50,
he secured $1.16 worth of groceries
and $3.50 in money. He told Mrs.
Donovan that his wife was lying at the
point of death.
1t is plainly evident that Richardson
has an acccmplice who makes out the
paper for him. When arrested he had
in his possession two checks. One was
signed by Martin Rogers. On the
blank side was written in ink:
Subject to draft on the First Ma
tional Bank of Wellsburg.
u. C. PALMER.
The paper was made out on bank
of Wheeling, check dated October 81,
1899, and called for $50.
The other check was dated Novem-
Der 9Th, and calls for $S7, signed by
Martin Robinson. Both checks are
properly stamped and from all appear
ances are all right.
Robertson is merely the tool of very
shrewi criminals, and if the paper had
been worked right it would in all prob
ability have gone through without chal-
lenge. Richardson at one time is said
to have represented himself as pen
sion agent He was before the United
States Court at Columbus, o., on that
charge but was not convicted.
Joseph Martin and Chas. Uselton
were arrested 10y Lieut.. Michaels and
Officer Wells on the charge of stealing
cady of tobacco from the P, w. & X.
Railroad Company. They were taken
before Justice Rogers and both hne0
SO and costs, in default of which they
were committed to jail. In considera-
tion of their youth, the sentence was
revoked and both sent to the reform
School,
Later warrants were sworn out by
J. v. Braden, superintendent of the
road, against Miss fish Mcknight and
Jacob Martin, father Of Joseph, charg-
ing them with receiving the stolen to-
bacco. The evidence did not sustain
the charge, and the cases were dis
missed.
Valentine Leibold, after figuring IN
police court last evening, was arrested
on warrant sworn out by w. B. Hol-
lingsworth before Squire Larue,
the charge being carrying away per-
.sonal property not his own. He will
Re given a hearing tomorrow morning.
1t is alleged that the defendant entered
the stable of the plaintiff, on the South
Side and taking possession of bay
mare, used it and brought it back. An
other man was arrested on the charge
of being a party in the case last even
ing, and was released later, there being
no evidence to hold him. He will be
one OF the witnesses at the hearing of

SHORT SERMONS,

Rev. s. S. Adams, of the Lutheran
church, does not believe in worrying
his people with long sermons on hot
days, and especially at communion
time. He preached a good sermon last
Sunday in seven minutes. He then in
vited Rev. D. w. Moore, of Middle
port, N. Y, to express some thoughts
in regard to the object of the commu-
nion, who did so in less than seven
minutes. sr
Rev. Moore said, the communion was
not intended, as some suppose, for the
church members to commune with
each other, Or to sanction the acts or
belief of any one who communes at the
same time; but an individual commu-
nion of each individual with Christ,
thus expressing faith in Him as their
risen Savior. That feeling of unworth-
mess is evidence of being proper sub
ject, while if one should feel that he
was entirely worthy to partake, and
that certain others were not, that that
feeling would be an evidence of un-
worthiness. That it is the Lords table,
and that all his people should partake,
and that each individual be their own
Judge in the matter.

THE HIGfiLANDERS,

The Highlanders held their 18th
annual picnic at Silver Lake, August
81. About two hundred were present,
and, with the exception of the heat and
dust, was all that could be asked for.
Only those who have attended their
picnics can form correct idea of the
vastness and richness of the viands
prepared.
Commodore Bevis and lady did every
| thing in their power to make it pleasant
and they succeeded in so doing. Every
thing at the park was turned over to
the Highlanders for that day.
Twelve years ago, Mr.. and Mrs.
Berry Smith conceived the idea of a
ighborhood picnic. They consulted
with Mr.. and Mrs. Wallace, then living
on their farm, now owned by c. ID.
Campbell. The idea was acceptably
received and that Fall the picnic was
born. Mrs. Wallace only lived to
attend one; but the picnic has been
kept up and has always proven itself to
be pleasant and helpful.
OF those who first took part, Mrs
Wallace, Mr.. and Mrs. Lowry Nelson,
Mr.. VIM. Keys, and Aunt Verta Akey,
with others, have gone to the great
beyond. Some have moved to other
parts, so that most of those present.
this year were new faces comparatively.
Mr.. Berry Smith was elected Presi-
dent, Miss Miller, Secretary, and John
Hawker, Treasurer.
1t is the intention to spend the day
mostly in pleasant associations. Pro-
vision IS made for short talks, and sing
ing, but the main idea is visiting.
They meet the last Thursday in August
1900, at Silver Lake. J.
