Baby Beef.

Twenty five years ago the prize beef
animal was ten or twelve year old OK,
which had served his day ami genera
ton as beast Of burden, doing farm
work, and then was fed for year until
he made a carcass Of 1890 or 1900 lbs.
We well remember when it was believed
that the best beef was that grown on to
the framework Of such an aged beast
and " hen what is now called beef was
OF no account. Times have changed. A
steer seldom now lives more than three
years, most Of them less. The old OK
il thing OF the past, and the public
taste is demanding young beef, even
baby beef, which finds a market at a
year old. The calf of the beef breeds
which is kept fat from the day it is born
and turns the scales at 1000 or l,lOO
pounds at 10 months will bring the top
of the market aud the most profit to it's
owner.

The twenty-first week of the Wheel
Ing tournament finds every team with
clean record and as anxious for the
fray as ever. The race remains about
the same, only that the All Alikes, by
taking three from the Emigrants, have
tied the Wheelings for first place, and
the race between these two teams has
narrowed down to steady work The
team that makes the first break Will
find itself second. The other teams re-
main about the same, with the excep-
ton of the Kenmores passing the APP
ollos for ninth.
The new race has the eye, and almost
heart and soul, of the last five teams.
The Kenmores, who were first, are
now tied with the Rough Riders for
that position, while the Hobsons are
only one game behind, and the All
Rooters one game behind the Hobsons,
which leaves the Apollos in the proud
position of last place in both races.

THE OLD METHOD
OF Treating Piles and Rectal Dins

OF Treating Piles and Rectal Din
eases Now Discarded.
Thousands of sufferers bear Wit
ness to the value Of the Pyramid
Pile Cure and even in cases where
a dangerous surgical operation has
failed 10 cure, surprising results
have been obtained from the new
remedy after few weeks use.
Relief from pain is SO Immediate
that patients sometimes imagine
that the Pyramid Pile Cure must
contain some form of cocaine or
opiate. but a careful analysis shows
it to contain no opiate, cocaine or
any injurious drug whatever, IN
fact it is guaranteed absolutely
free from any deleterious SUBJ
stance.
The old methods of treating piles
by ligature, knife or the still more
cruel treatment by dilatation. be-
sides causing intense pain and FREE
quently collapse and death, are now
known to be practically useless as
far as a permanent cure Is con-
cerned.
Nearly every case of piles may be
traced to faulty action of the liver
and it is a mistake to treat the
trouble entirely by local applica>
tons of salves and ointments or by
any kind of operation. The new
treatment by the Pyramid has
clearly demonstrated its superior
ity over all of these.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is strictly
scientific both in its composition
and in its therapeutic action, and
the best feature of it is that 1t is
perfectly safe and harmless. No
i'll effects ever result from It's use.
The cure is accomplished grad
ually and painlessly by the astrin-
gent properties contained in 1t,
which cause the little tumors and
congested blood vessels to con-
tract and the obstruction to the
circulation to be removed.
In view OF the immense number
OF patent medicines on the market,
It is a singular fact that the Pyra-
mid Is the only pile cure of note,
the only one that is sold and rec
commended in every drug store in
the United States.
The remedy is in suppository
form and far superior to any salve
or ointment for convenience. 1t
is applied at night and absorbed
into the sensitive membrane. act
ing both as a local and a constitu-
tional treatment. The treatment
is effectual even In cases of many
years standing.
