DISCARDED.
The Old Methods of Treating Piles and Rectal Diseases Supplanted by the
 Pyramid Pile Cure.

The old methods of treating piles by liga- ture, by the knife or by the cruel methods of dilatation, besides causing intense pain and frequently collapse and death, are now known to be but mere makeshifts as far as a cure is concerned
 The liver is responsible for nearly every case of piles and the mistake has been made of treating piles as a purely local dis ease. Such Is not the case, however, and the success of the new treatment known as the Pyramid Pile Cure has demonstrated it.
 The Pyramid Pile Cure is not a salve or ointment, but a suppository which Is ap- piled at night and absorbed into the sen.si- tive rectal membrane and acts both as a local and a constitution treatment, and in eases of many years standing this treat ment has been effectual.
 Thousands of pile sufferers bear witness to the inestimaIble value of the Pyramid and even those who have undergone surgical operations without a cure have been hap oily surprised by results from few weeks treatment with the Pyramid
 The relief from pain is so immediate that patients sometimes imagine that the Pyra- mid contains opiates or cocaine because the relief is so Instantaneous, but the Pyr- aid Pile Cure Is guaranteed absolutely free from any opiate or mineral poison what ever.
 The relief is the result of the strictest properties of the remedy which causes the little tumors and congested blood vessels to contract and a normal circulation is estab- lished.
 The Pyramid Pile Cure is strictly scien- tlfic, both in its composition and in its therapeutic action, and the best feature of it is that it is perfectly safe and harmless. No i'll effects ever result from its use, but only positive benefit.
 A singular fact in view of the large num- Der of patent medicines before the public is that the Pyramid is the only pile cure of national reputation. It is the only pile cure popu;ar enough and meritorious enough to be found in every drug store in the United States It sells at 50 cents a package.

Was at the Waterloo Ball

Lady Louisa Tighe, who died last week, was often urged to write a book of memoirs but she never even considered doing such a thing. Her ideas of literature were those of the last century, and she would have considered it a previously lapse of dignity to have put her knowledge of past events at the disposal of the public.
 But the old lady's aristocratic ideas did not prevent her from making a few liter ary men welcome at her home in London and in Irelanw, and 1t is not likely that any one will ever know how much of the information contained in the "Recolec- tions' of the last decade or two came originally from the great Duke of Rich mond's daughter. It Is only natural that writers should have esteemed the right to call on and chat with Lady Louisa as an enviable privilege. Up to the last her mind was as bright and her faculties as sharp as on that memorable night when she danced at the Duchess of Richmond's ball on the eve of Waterloo-the ball which Byron dmmortalIzed in "Childe Harold":
 .srhere was sound of revelry by night,
 And Belgium's capital had gathered then
 Her Beauty and her Chivalry; and bright
 The lamps shone OCT fair women and
 brave men,"
 Little Lady Louisa Lennox, as she was then, grew up to womanhood, and married, and lived among the great ones of the land till in the last few years of her life, she was the only link that remained with many of the stirring events and famous men of the early years of the century. She had known Scott and Byron; she had ridden with Arthur Wellesley when he was com paratiyely obscure soldier-poHtican in Ire hndl she had been acquainted With Beau

THE PLAY
ssssssssssygsSsssss2sssssss gs gssENcsSEnE1ss

.sThe Girl from Chilf' made her farewell appearance at the Auditorium last night closing her engagement, which was begun cn Friday evening.
 Ada Rehan will be seen at the Jefferson theater on March 30 in the original and fa- nous production of ."The Tanning of the Shrew," that so triumphantly scored at Daly's theater in New York and also in London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, and all the principal cities of America and Europe.
 The following character sketch of Miss Rehan is by a well-l1nown writer:
 .tIf I were to write in the mood or chim- newcomer reminiscence, a character or Ada Rehan, as l remember and think of her, having known her for many years ooth as a woman and an actress, I should say this: Ada Rehan is a creature Of simpl"cuty and truth, and likewise of piquancy and fascination; she is a passionate lover ol beauty, and she can discern, and cordially admire the beauty of other women-a nap piness somewhat unusual with her set She is conventional, having learned to be so' but the conventional is not her natural way, for her temperament had in it something of the ideal gypsy. Her physical beauty IS of the kind that appears in portraits of women of Romeny and Gainsborough, am- ple, opulent and bewitching, enriched by the encharJement of superb animal spirits. She has gray-blue eyes, and brown hair, and the tremulous sensfbihty of the Celtic nature: A careldss strain of music, or the lNt of an old ballad often brings tears into her eyes.
 Ada Rehan's domestic life is most tram olil and happy, diversified with study, ana with the sportive company Of her animal nets Chief among these pets is a monkey named Chip, and a bulldog named Fan, the former. "a remarkably interesting crea- ture of its kind. I have seen her wander ing with her dog on the broad and solitary waste of the breezy beach that stretches away for many sunlit mile in front or her seouestered cottage upon the Cumberland shore of the Irish sea- She is never so con- tented never so radiant, never so much ner- self. as in that beautiful retreat. Tne nearest house is a mile distant; far in the east rise fine peaks of Coniston and Skiddaw. More near, like an eagle on its craig' IS percheu the ancient castle of the lords or Muncas- Ter Southward Mes Furness, with Its ven- frable ruined abIbey- to the north the land trends away, past Mary Stuart's fatal hav- on and Wordsworth's earliest home, to the dim and cloudy capes of Scotland; while re- mote in the west, if the air be clear, a faint outline Is visible of the romantic Isle of Man.
 .sThss graphic description of her foreign rustic domain is positively the direct op- nosite of her New York residence, where she resides when not abroad, or en tour. At thfs home there Is every indication of the sSudent. the woman of refinement, and ths

New York Letter in Chicago Record.
 Bird s. Coler, the comptroller of the city of New York, who was elected upon the Tammany ticket and was supposed to be a loyal party man, jhhs been making some extraordinary speeches lately. Mir. Coler is young man of religious and literary tendencies. Governor Roosevelt says that the typical New Yorker is a man who was born of New England parents beyond the Alleghany mountains Mir. Coler answers that description. He was a broker in mu- nic.pal bonds when Croker nominated him for comptroller, comparatively unknown but since his election he has proved to be large and sharp thorn in the flesh of Tarnmany. He is. superintendent of a Brooklyn Sunday school, president of a literary club, active in the Y M c. A. and the author of several religious books. His most recent publication is on "Munici- pal Government,' and contains the results of his experience and observations while ii office.

land, on which she held an option for $10,0O0.
 Mrs. Peck explained to Crinkley that the option would run out in a short time, and that if she could raise $i0 900 she would buy this land She said that if Crinlley would lend her 5000 in cash she would give him s15,000 of her profits.
 MT. Crnkley handed over the money. She said that she would send MT. Metcalf to dispose of the property to the syndicate He left for the north and was not seen again by MT. Crinkley. She fingered behind and sampled his wines In few days she left for Sparkhill.
 Soon afterward Mrs. Peck sent him a letter stating that she was having great difficulty in raising the other $5,000 neces- sary to take up her option. She asked him for a further loan of & 800 He ob- liged her with $2,000, all the money he had In the world. She acknowledged the receipt of this sum in dainty perfumed letter.
 CrInkley's Eyes Opened
 MT. Bell wrote to MT. Crinkley a few days ago asking if he had any real estate transactions with Mrs. Peck- He had been to the lawyers office when he met Mrs. Peck here. Crfnkley wrote and informed MT. Bell of the disposal of his case and property. The lawyer answered, telling him that he thought he had been swindled.
 Crinkley went to Washington, found he had been swindled and yesterday came to this city. Captain McClusky informed him that Mrs. Peck was already in the Tomlos, her conviction on a charge of grand lar ceny having been confirmed. MT. Evans, a lawyer, refused to handle her case on ap- peal after she was sentenced to five years in state prison, and she secured MT. Bell as counsel.
 During his talk with Captain McClusky MT. Bell, who accompanied Crinkley, show ed him a rcconveyance of the plantation that he had procured from Mrs. Peck in the Tombs. Captain McC1usky took pos session of this paper and refused to restore 1t to MT. Bell The document was not legal ly executed, but the captain thinks 1t will serve some good purpose in retrieving the loss of MT. Crinkley.
