The Charles Schneider Baking Company
received yesterday 9,S75 barrels Of Gold
Medal Flour. direct from the Washburn-
Crosby Mills at Minneapolis. This is the
largest -four purchase ever made by a
Washington firm. The shipment was made
in a special train Of twenty-five standard
freight cars. and attracted much attention
en- route and in the Washington freight
yards.
The Charles Schneider Baking Company's
products are famous all Washington over.
but their latest enterprising movement in
their -four purchase is calculated to extend
their reputation in the Capital City. Gold
Medal Flour is made of selected spring
wheat from the Red River Valley, a grain
that produces breadstuff of the greatest
nutritive value-bread that is always rich
and satisfying retaining its freshness and
moisture longer than any other. The use
of Gold Medal Flour argues well, too. for
the health OF Washington. this glutinous
-four is a great muscle, bone. and flesh
builder. Reduced TO baking results. these
1875 barrels Of flour will produce ,162. 500
loaves of bread, an assurance that our
food stock is in no immediate danger of
depletion
Gold Medal Flour is the product of the
largest and cleanest mill of the world IL
is the outgrowth of Governor Washburn's
experimental mill of thirty-fOur years ago.
when he introduced the Hungarian ROLLER
process in the United States Many ex-
periments have been introduced since. not
the least OF which are the selecting by
chemical analysis. washing the grain, test
ing the -four by actul baking tests. Every
precautiOn is taken TO assure uniformity
OF quahty5a quality that is so high that
all other fiOurs are measured by it in the
greatest breadmaking countries in the
world: quality that has brought to the

A RELIABLE PILE CURE.

The Pyramid Pile Cure is the safest and
surest pile cure on the market because it
contains no mineral pOisons nor opium nor
cocaine, but can be used with absolute
safety and certainty OF cure.
Many physicians are now using the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure in place Of surgical opera
tions. being painless. convenient TO use.
and the patient can attend to his daily o.
cupation while the cure Is being made, as
it is used at night and no additional tr, at
ment is necessary.
DR.. Wharton says the Pyramid Pile Cure
will prove a blessing TO mankind. when il
is remembered that heretofore a surgical
operation was considered the only cure
with all its danger TO life. intense psin
and an expense Of from ten to one hun re /
dollars, to say nothing of the poss bic fe-
turn Of the trouble. The Pyramid Pile
Cure costs but fifty cents at any drug store
and does the work quickly and safely.
