HAS NO COMPETITOR,
One Patent Medicine Which Has the
Field to Itself.


Field to Itself
A prominent physician was recently
asked why it was there are so many
blood purifiers" nerve tonics" and
medicines for every i'll except one of the
most common and annoying Diseases,
viz. piles.
He replied, there are two principal rea-
sons: First. physicians and people in
general have thought for years that the
only permanent cure for piles was
surgical operation. and that medical prep
arauons were simply palliatives and not
a cure for the trouble.
Another reason is that piles, unlike
many other diseases. is in no sense an
ina ginary trouble. A sufferer from piles
- very much aware of the fact and for
this reason the few pile salves and ONT
ments, ETC.. have been short lived be-
cause the patient Very soon discovered
their wortnlessness.
He continues: However. there is a
new pile remedy which, Judging from lis
popularity and extent of its sale, will soua
take the place OF all other trea tment for
piles 1t has certainly made thousands CT
cures+in this obstinate disease, and its
merit, repeatedly tested, has made it
famous among physicians and wherever
introduced. The2remedy is>sold fby drug

opium and is absolutely safe to use. at

FORECAST OF SENATE WORK.
Sundry Civil Bill Likely to Take Sew.
eral Days.

The sundry civil appropriation bill prob
ably will be considered for two or three
days more in the Senate, and by the time
that is disposed of the general deficiency
bill will be ready for consideration. Neither
the deficiency nor the Military Academy
BILL the only appropriation bills undis-
posed of, except the sundry civil, is ex-
pected to consume any considerable amount
of time.
The Senate will make an effort to meet
the plans of the House in the matter of
final adjournment June 6, but there is
general apprehension among senators that
the date may be postponed until the 9th
or the 18th. In addition to the appropria-
ton bills still undisposed of by the Sem
ate there are still several appropria ton
bills in conference and a disposition IS
manifested on the part of senators not 20
name the date of adjournment until these
are well out of the way.
1t is generally believed that the Montana
senatorial contest will be disposed of when
it is brought up by referring 1t TO the COM
mittee on privileges and elections, and
that then nothing more will be heard of 1t
during the present session. The committee
resolution declaring that Senator Clark's
original election was not legal also bids
fair to remain on the calendar.
