STRIKES THE SOURCE.
A PILE CURE THAT GOES TO THE ROOT OF
TIE DISEASE.

There are lots Of lotions, oils and salves that
will, through their soothing influence relieve tenn
porarily the pain incident to piles. But is tina
all the sufferer requires? Isn't 1t a horrible
thought to realize that the ease is only temporary
and the disease goes under the surface without
a moments interruption? Wouldn't it be wiser
TO select remedy that seeks the source and reg
ulates those deep-seated disorders which induces
the disease? Pyramid Pile Cure not only relieves
the pain at once, but effects a permanent cure Of
the worst form of piles.
You don't have TO go through tedious course of
dieting while using 1T either. 1t strikes through
those delicate membranes and tissues and sets the
blood in healthful circulation reducing at once the
painful Inflammation and congested tumors.
This remedy is not haphaZard combination Of
drugs, but is remedy invented by specialists who
have treated piles and blood disorders successfully
for years. Manufactured by the Pyramid Drug
Co., at Marshall, Mich. Almost any frst-class
druggist has 1t sale.
Don't treat this disease with every lotion and
salve that comes along. Remember the parts
affected among the most delicate In the human
body. This remedy is absolutely safe and no one
need fear to apply it freely the most infiamed
parts. The speed with which it allays the pain
= an agreeable surprise to the sufferer. mys&1l

A Saving Of Money
News and Observer.

That thu purchasers Of school
books in North Carolina will save
some iorty thousand dollars the
first year cf the change to State
adoption is one lruit OF the legis.
lation which brought about the
heavy cut in the price Of school
books estimated that 1920
600 would have been spent, With
no reduction in the prices hereto
fore paid in this State. when the
State adoption went into effect,
but the final outcome of the
work Of the State Text Book
Commission has been to reduce
the amount to some $50, 900.
There has Geen seeming delay
in reaching a decision as to the
books to be adopted, bnt as this
delay las secured so material a
reduction in price it is found not
to have been unnecessary. The
members of the Commission went
at the work with the desire to
benefit the people of the State in
the selection OF books, and they
knew that a great benefit would
he a slashing into the prices that
had ruled in buying books. That
they succeed in thislopping of Of
big profits can be seen when the
old and the new prices are com
pared, and will be a joyful reali
zation to the parent when he is
called on to pay for books for
his children this fall.
In.passing. it may be well TO
recall that the democratic party
that is putting the "cheap only
in cost" book into the schools Of
the State. Always with the peo.
pie and of the people, it is doing
it's accustomed work in saving
the dollars for the people.

doctors. He SAID in part:
Zone of the best types OF
Christian character portray
ed ir the literature of recent
years was that OF the coun-
try physician at Drumtochty
who was so hard al work day
and night that he had no
time for theology, and less
time for the Sunday School
and prayer meeting.
"All true religion is wor-

Is the sound OF rain and hail
and wind. Its choir is the
signing and mourning of bro
ken hopes and the creed ofits
votaries is self sacrifice for
the blessing and uplifting OF
mankind.

in the hour Of their afiiiet,on
have lifted up to you a hand
that was weak and tremb-
ling, but now thankfully re-
stored to life ana vigor, and
