try, and visited his native village. where
his father had built up a large business

There are some people who have piles as
frequently and regularly as other people
have colds.
Amy little bowel trouble Will bring them

however, are much more serious than a

rectal disease.
While there are many pile remedies
which give relief yet there is but one
which not only gives instant relief but at
the same time makes a permanent cure,
and that is the well known Pyramid Pile
Cure.
This remedy is composed of simple,
harmless vegetable ingredients, but COM
bined so effectively and act so promptly
and thoroughly that it cures every form
of piles whether itching, blind, bleeding or
prouuding.
In long standing eases the Pyramid Pile
Cure has proven to be the only certain cure
except a surgical operation, and its advan-
tagcs over an operation are many, as it is
painless, causes no delay or interference
with daily occupation. and last but not
least, it is cheaper than any surgical ope-
ration 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

remedy to accomplish a complete cure, and
it never disappoints except in cases beyond

The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by
the Pyramid Drug Co., of Marshall. Mich,
and for sale by druggists everywhere at so
