SMALL SICKNESSES.


Do No. Neglect Them: They Often Grow
Into Larger Ones.
Piles are painful, persistent, hard
to cure, but they can be cured.
There is just one remedy that will
do it. 1t is a recent discovery, but
it has been on the market long
enough to have the endorsement of
leading physicians and the recon-
'mendation of thousands of cured
patients.
Pyramid Pile Cure acts quickly
and directly. 1t cures the cause of
.the trouble. Cures it SO that the
effect is permanent.
A great many salyes and ONT
ments will give relief for a few
minutes. That is not what is
wanted. Pyramid Pile Cure will
cure any sort Of piles; blind, itch
ing or bleeding. 1t will cure the :
lightest, or the most aggravated
case. The first application will do
more good than a dozen boxes of
any of the many Of the so-called
cures now sold. Read these let
tiers. They are from people who
have tried it.
Mr.. J. w. Rollins. a gentleman
living at Sweet Springs, Mo-, writes
briefly and to the point regarding
his experience with Piles, he says:
| consider the Pyramid Pile Cure
without an equal. 1t cured me in
less than thirty days. | waited
fifteen days or more to be sure the
remedy had fully cured me before
writing you. / can now say | am
cured and I shall recommend the
Pyramid Pile Cure at every posi-
BILE opportunity because it deserves
1t.
Miss Easter Nunley, of Tracy
City, Tenn, writes: The Pyramid
Pile Cure has done my sister more
good than anything she has ever
taken. | have nothing but words
of warm commentator for it.
From J. D. Roberts, Mt. Moriah,
Mo: | have used the Pyramid
Pile Cure and results have been en-
tirely satisfactory. There a be
no question but that it is certain
and lasting cure for piles, at least
it has so proven in my case.
All druggists sell full sized
packages of Pyramid Pile Cure for
fifty cents.

Marshall, Mich, for little book on
cure of Piles, mailed free.

A CHANGE.

Let girls propose" says DR.. Law.
To which let all men answer "Pshaw!"
Unless they wish to be more rough,
ana ~s sfg y gut NONSENSE TUT or
Let girls propose!
Why, goodness! let us just suppose
How things would be If they were thus
'Twould truly be a dreadful muss.
Think you of Miss Matilda Jane,
Who's really just too very plain
For any mortal use.
Would she enjoy this newborn ruse?
She goes to dances everywhere,
And has a pleasant time while there;
Despite she is so very plain,
Because they know, while on the floor,
IT'S just a dance, and nothing more.
But If the maiden could propose,
Why. goodness knows,
As she came In the salon door,
With maddened rush and frightened roar,
The lads would stampede from her sight
And hide them trembling in the night.
On t'other hand, suppose a girl
With dimpled cheek and fluffy curl.
With sweet blue eyes and creamy chin,
temper like an imp of sin
Suppose she got that Eye at work.
And cherry lip began to perk,
And fluffy curl began to Craze,
In manner any saint to craze,
The cheek of little Willeyboy,
To fill him with an instant joy?
Do you suppose that young man could
Say, mo, my girl; I've understood
Your temper is not very good;
I like your chin, / like your curl
you are such a scrappy girl!
| love your eyes, adore your cheek
But no, you're much too far from meek"

He'd answer yes.

A maid just turning forty-three-
Some older than she used to be-
With some poor boy just past eighteen,
She in the yellow, he the green
Indeed. so green he does not see
The maids a most autumnai she?
What chance would such a lad as this
Have under this new scheme of bliss?
To-day he speaks not to his fair
Because the poor chap doesn't dare:
But let her pop the qIestion-Geei
What would the old maids harvest be?
Let girls propose? All, DR.. Law,
Excuse me if l answer "Pshawr"
And add to this both "Humph!" and

Those Politics.

AS the uISL OIL y pm NAo1 ~ y
nigh those itching for town offl-
ces are boiling up quite numerous
The News has no particular per
son or persons to support Tor tue
Offices which are to be filled this
spring, but at the caucus 1t be-
1ieves the best men should be Sc
lected irrespective Of party. AS
far as we can learn at present
there are only two candidates
for the office Of chairman, S. ".
Smith the present chairman, and
A. Mckenzie.
S. w. Smith has made a good
chairman and has conducted the
business affairs of the town as
well as a member on the county
board, in a manner whichis com
mendable to all. Under his rule
the expenses Of the town has
lessened, taxes in the village have
been reduced to just about halt
what they we're last year. If the
people see fit to return Mr..
Smith to this office, they will
have no cause to regret it, as he
has made a careful an ! painstak-
officer.
Mr.. A. Mckenzie, is being men
toned as a candidate for the
craftsmanship of the town. We
all know that Mr.. Mckenzie is
a thorough business man, and
has thosequalihcations which go
to make a good officer. Ii it
be Mr.. McKenzie's good
fortune to receive the nomination
and is elected no kick would be
from a majority Of the
tax payers,
It looks as though now as all
was willing to let well enough
alone as far as the treasurers OF
fee is concerned, and Fred Morey
will undoubtedly continue to
hold the office for another term,
as all admit that Fred makes a
most admirable treasurer.
Chas. Slattery, the Efficient
town clerk, is up again for reel
ection to the same office. His
many friends claim for him that
he has made one Of the best clerks
the town ever had, and for that
reason say that he is entitled to
term.
John Diamond, is also an as
pirant for the office of town
clerk, and promises if elected will
give the office his personal atten-
ton. John is a steady and in
dustrious young man, and if the
people see fit to endorse him
would make a good clerk.
Matt Schirbel, says that he
would like to be one Of the side
board for another year. Matt is
a tax payer, and he as made a
good supervisor and there is no
good reason why he should not
serve again if he receives the
endorsement at the town caucus.
Harry Jones, the popular livery
man, is out on the war path for
side supervisor and will make
good fight to capture the nomi-
nation. Like all the candidates
Mr. Jones is property owner
and if he should be fortunate
enough to be a winner, would
see that the town got a good
clean administration.
John Brosnau, announces him
self as candidate for side super
visor, at the coming town cleo
ton and if he receives the nomi-
nation and is elected, promises
to perform the duties to his best
Judgment and ability. The town

Uncle Sam Has a Milton and a Half Nor

Uncle Sam Has Million and Half More
Nephews Than Nieces.
"The number of male infants
born yearly exceeds that of fe-
male by one to four per cent,
the proportion varying slightly
from year to year, writes Pro
lessor D. R. McAnally Of The
American Girls Chances of Mar
rage" in the March Ladies
Home Journal. "The mlshaps Of
of boyhood, however, reduce the
number of boys to some extent,
but not so much as to make the
adult females outnumber the
males. For every American wo-
man, therefore, there ought to
be a husband in posse if not in
esse, and the fact that there is a
large percentage Of unmarried
adult women in the country, and
a greater proportionate number
in some sections than in others,
is attributable to causes which
have disturbed the balance of
population. In all new cout-
tries-and compared with Eu-
rope the United States is a new
country-there is d larger pro-
portion of males than of females
The aggregate population OF the
United States, so far as the latest
official figures show, is 1922
$50, of which 80, O67, $50 are
males and 3O,554,370 are fe-
males. Thus the preponderance
of males over females would seem
to make it comparatively easy
for the American girl to secure a
husband, but in certain sections
this is evidently not the case, else
the proportion of adult unmarri-
ed women would not be so large
IF men would remain in the neigh
borhoods where they were born
the proportion of men and wo-
men would be nearly equal all
over the country, but men find
work hard to get in the older
and more populous communities,
and go to newer States. The
young women are left behind,
and the young men, after set
Ting in their new homes, forget
the companions of their youth,
and contract alliances among
their new friends in the West,
hence some of the Eastern States
show surplus of females"
