markets.. the big nets areAlowered to

The discovery that the sea at the
depth of 1000 fathoms has u uniform
temperature Of 35 degrees, or only
about three degrees above freezing.
was another of the important results
of this expedition. Former deep-sea
soundinSS had shown practically uni
form temperature over small areas. but
it was thought that latitude and ocean
currents would affect the temperature.
The sOundings of the Albatross, how

arctic regions. and whether on the sur
face the sea is cold or warm, at the
depth of 1000 feet the temperature is
absolutely uniform.

THE ONE SURE WAY.


The only stre way to cure every
form of piles Is to use q remedy like
the Pyramid Pile Cure. which is an
piled directly to the parts affected.
and its wonderfully healing effects
are apparent from the first application
because It's medicinal properties are
rapidly absorbed right where needed,
by the delicate tissues and sensitive
membranes OF the rectum. The cure
Is natural and easy and almost before
the patient is aware of il, every trace
of piles has left him.
This is one reason why the Pyramid
File cure has been 50 uniformly sue
cessful.
Ii is in suppository form. applied
at night directly to the diseased parts,
where it is most needed, and not by
the round about way OF the stomach
nor the harsh. barbarous method of
surgical operation.
Direct applications to the seat of
disease is the only common sense cure,
and this is fully accomplished by the
Pyramid Pile Cure.
If the voluntary testimony of thous
ands is worth anything then no suffer-
er should delay in giving this splendid
80 cents at any drug store. and is guar
anteed absolutely safe and free from
opiates or cocaine so commonly found
in so-called pile cures.
Nearly every druggist has some fa-
vorite pile cure on which he can make
a larger profit than he can on the Py-
ramid, and often-times to substitute,
but when it is remembered that the
Pyramid Pile Cure is the only remedy
for piles that has a national reputa-
ton and is sold by every druggist in
the United States and Canada. it
means something: it means that no
remedy could do this unless ii pos
sossed positively unnistallable merit.
The Pyramid Pile Cure has cured
thousands of sufferers from the diff
ferent forms of the disease. whether
itching. bleeding or protruding piles.
