IN SOME CASES
A Single Package of the Pyrn-
mid Pile Cure In Sufficient to
Cure.

A Single Package Of the Pyrn-
mid Pile Cure In Sufficient to
Cure.
This may seem a broad state
ment when it Is remembered that
lew diseases are so obstinate to
really cure as piles; some physi-
clans going so far as to say that
a painful surgical operation is the
only permanent cure but the
many and remarkable cures made
by the Pyramid Pile Cure in the
past few years have proven that
surgical operations are no longer
necessary, and that it is. by far
the safest and most reliable rene
dy yet discovered for this common
and often dangerous trouble.
The harmless acids and healing
oils contained in the Pyramid Pile
Cure cause the blood vessels to
contract to a natural condition
n the little tumors are absorb
ed and the cure is made without
pain, Inconvenience or detention
from business.
DIR. Williams. a most prominent
CRITICAL surgeon says: 1T is the
duty of every surgeon to avoid
an operation if possible to cure in
any otner way and after many
trials with the Pyramid Pile Cure
| unhesitatingly recommend it in
preference to an operation"
Mr. Phil Owens of So. Omaha
writes that after suffering two
years from an aggravated case of
ltchlng and protruu,ng piles he
was cured by a single so cent
package of the Pyramid Pile Cure
purchased from a local druggist,
he says: Il fully expected the
trouble would return but am hap
Ply to say for the past year and a
half have been entirely free from
the disease and / can not speak
too warmly in favor of the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure.
a bill clerk in one of the large
wholesale houses of st. Louis
says: MY occupation as billing
clerk was so combining and seden-
tary that it finally brought on an
aggravated attack of rectal trou-
BILE, which my physician diagnos-
ed as itching and %protruding piles
and recommended a salve which
he prepared and which gave me
some relief for a few hours after
using and then the trouble would
come back as bad as ever: one of
the other clerks advised me to try
the Pyramid Pile Cure and | now
feel like thanking him every day
for recommending it, as a single
80 cent package cured me and I
have had no trace of piles since,
something over six months"
Hundreds of pile sufferers. who
had almost decided to undergo the
pain and danger of an operation
have been astonished to find that
the Pyramid Pile Cure which can
be purchased at any drug store,
was far safer. better and more eff
fective than an operation could
possibly be.

The gospel meetings that are cor
Quoted each night at the mission are

good that is being accomplished this
year is much greater than any of the

order that the men that gather at that
place can wash themselves and their
clothing and be clean, as well as hear
the gospel preached.
