BUZZARDS EAT PIGS.
Some Farmers Have Found II
Necessary to Resort to the
Shot Gun.

An unusual devastation is taking
place among the pigs in this vicinity.
Buzzards are unusually abundant
about here, and not finding enough
carrion to satiate their hungry maws
they attack live pigs and feast on the
live flesh and blood until their appe'
tites are somewhat gratifed.
The defenseless pigs are entirely
helpless in the clutches of the hungry
birds, and some farmers have found
it necessary to resort to the shot gun.

DOING GOOD EVERYWHERE
! Medical Discovery That Effectualiy
Cares Piles in Every Form.

Tor many Years physicians have expert
1nented in vain, seeking a remedy which
would effectually cure piles and other
rectal troubles without resorting to
surgical operation. Many remedies were
found TO give temporary relief, but none
could be depended upon TO make lasting
satisfactory cure.
Within recent period, however a new
remedy, the Pyramid Pile Cure, has been
repeatedly tested in hundreds of cases,
and with highly satisfactory results
The first effect OF the Pyramid Pile Cure
is to instantly remove the pain and irritL-
ton generally present, and from that time
on the cure rapidly progresses, and before
ne patient is hardly aware of it he is
entirely cured. The remedy seems to act
directly on the nerves and blood vessels
of the parts affected, as it comes into
direct contact with them, and sets up a
healthy action. which, in a perfectly nat
ural way, brings the parts to their normal
condition.
The remedy does it's work without any
pain or inconvenience to the sufferer, and
is justly considered one of the most merl-t
toriotls discoveries of modern medicine.
Piles is one of the most annoying and
aoften-times dangerous diseases with which
humanity is afflicted. If neglected 1t fire.
ouently developes into Fistula OF some
equally fatal and incurable trouble,
whereas, by the timely use of this simple,
but effective remedy, no one need suffer
a single day from any form of piles,
unless they want to.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is perfectly
harmless, containing no mineral poisons,
and is also very reasonable in price. cost
ing but so cents a package. 1t is sold
in drug stores everywhere. The manu-
facturers of the remedy are the Pyramid
Drug Company. OF Marshall, Mich, who.
have placed this excellent preparation
before the pubic only after giving it tho
rough and repeated tests In the hands
of reputable physicians The results In
hundreds Of cases have convinced us that
It will not disappoint YOU
