Talks IL Little on American Affairs
and Has a Good Word for Edward.
LONDON, Feb. ST am keeping care
full watch on American affairs, said
Richard Croker in the course of an In
teryiew with a representative Of the AS
eociated Press today. But 1 have no in
tention of talking to the American press
on political affairs at home. There have
been many things attributed to me which
are entirely untrue, but 1 have no need
to rush into print to reply to them.
"Gov. Oden has been saying many
things about the necessity of purity In
American politics, but those who have
watched the panorama Of New York at
fairs are quite competent to judge wheth-
er his party or mine has produced the
best results.
Il propose to be in England for the
opening Of the racing season, and 1 be-
ueve there is quite good chance for
American success now as ever il they act
on sportSmanslike lines.
81 notice all sorts of stories have been
published about my income tax, but those
interested can rest assured that I have
never been taxed over &120, so my place
at Vantage costs little more than a hum
dred year The events of the past
fortnight in England have been of in
tense interest to me. I am confident
England has not suffered a loss by the
accession of the king. The fact is that a.
manly head of the government must give
the empire a more virile tone, which must
inure to the nations benefit.
81 have been much interested in the re-
cent cables about American trusts. Every
one knows L am opposed to all their eff
forts to concentrate capital in single
hands, however, [ am more interested IN

else, and must decline to be interviewed

III SOME CASES
A Single Package OF the Pyramid
Pile Cure Is Sufficient 30 Cure.

n single Package OF the Pyramid
Pile Cure as Sufficient TO Cure.
This may seem a broad statement when
1t Is remembered that few diseases are so
obstinate to really cure as piles; some
physicians going so far as to say that a
painful surgical operation is the only
permanent cure, but the many and re-
markab-e 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 remedy vet
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 and the little tumors are alb
sorbed and the cure is made without
pain, Inconvenience or detention from
business.
DR.. Williams, a prominent CRITICAL sur
geon says: 1T is the duty Of every sur
Seon to avoid an operation if possible to
cure in any other way and after many
trials with the Pyramid Pile Cure 1 TN
hesitatfngiy recommend it in preference
TO an operation"
Mr.. Phil Owens of So Omaha writes
that after suffering -tWo years from an
aggravated case of itching and protrud-
ing piles he was cured by a single 50 cent
package OF the pyramid fIle Cure Dur
chased from a local druggist he says:
Il fully expected the trouble would re-
turn but am happy to say for the past
year and half have been entirely free
from the disease and I can net speak too
warmly in favor of the Pyramid Pile
Cure"
A bill clerk in one Of the large whole
sale houses of St Louis says: "My ocCu-
patton as billing clerk was 50 combining
and sedentary that it finally brought on
an aggravated attack of rectal tro'ible,
which my physic, an diagnosed as itching
and protruding piles and recommended Il
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 I now feel like thanking
him every day for recommending it as q
single 50 cent package cured me and
have had no trace Of plies since, some
thing over six months"
Hundreds of pile sufferers, who had al
most decided to undergo the pain and
danger of an operation have been aston
ished to find that the Pyramid Pile Cure
which can be purchased at any drug
store was far safer, better and more
effective than an operation could possibly
be.
