Frustrated, the doctors did me no

writing this letter because so many
people are sufferers from this
trouble, who like myself, did not
know where to look for per-
manent, safe. reliable cure.
Experience with the Pyramid
Pile Cure for the past three years
has demonstrated TO the medical
profession as well as to thousands
Of sufferers from piles that it is the
safest and most efectual pile cure
ever offered to the public, contain
ing no opiates or poisons of any
kind. painless aud convenient to
handle. and being sold by drug
gists at sec and Sl.00 per box, is
within the reach OF every sufferer.
Very often two or three boxes
have made a complete cure OF
chronic cases that had not yielded
to other remedies for years.
There is scarcely a disease more
aggravating and obstinate to cure
than the various forms OF piles.
and it is common practice to uss
ointments, salves aud similar prep
arations containing dangerous
poisons to remove the trouble The
Pyramid has superseded all OF
these Intellectual remedies and no
one suffering with any rectal
trouble will make any mistake In
giving the Pyramid a trial

Why Is This Thusly Z

To the Editor of the Register.
'Sir:-I would like to say few words
in the way of a small kick in regard to
some Wheeling people who think they
are very smart. but would like to say
this much. that niue out of every ten
do not know how to stop street car
and then know how to get on or off
when 1t is stopped. In fact, they are
too slow to catch a cold. Some people
cross the tracts directly in front of a
moving car, and when In the center OF
the track almost stop and look at the
motorman as much as to say: IF am
iii your way, go around" 1t looks as
IL they were void Of good sense or
judgment, or that Madam Carter, who
was in our city some time ago., left
them in some kind of a trance when
she went away. II they would only
stop to think for Il moment, not only
Oh the inconvenience they are causing
the travelling public. and the dangerous
position they are placing themselves in
the would surely not do so again. |
would also like to say a few words
about the way teamsters got in the
track and detain the cars. II is an
imposition and an outrage the way
some teamsters unnecessarily detain
the cars, and 1t is to be hoped that
your next City Council will make laws
to prohibit such a nuisance.

The Iron Trade Review says:
The rail mills have booked fair
amount of business since the year
opened, electric lines in the Central
West contributing some good orders.
In the Chicago district 10000 ton con-
tract for export was booked in the
week. The announcement that prices
on rails would be withdrawn on jan
uary Is, may have fastened some buy
ing but there is still skepticism con-
corning the reported purpose of the
pool to make a 81 advance with Feb
uary LIST. Mills in all districts are fully
occupied, and none are pushing for
business.

Prices generally opened higher IN

few stocks. Missouri Pacific opened at
a spread of points, three thousand

Missouri Pacific and Delaware & Hud

Large blocks were taken of Northern

sharp setback. Generally speaking,
the market suffered a relapse after
the opening advance, but there was
consistent support in many stocks.
There was a rally of three points in

Texas & Pacific over a point. The

rallies on short covering were NOT held
and the closing was semi-demoralized

Fame Spreading.

When a man comes into our store
and fits himself UP in one. of our fine
suits-and it has the air of a "mer-
chant tailor suit, which costs $500 or
$45.O0, while ours cost from $500 to
$4,000; and that man feels so good
about the fit and general air of the
suit-that he jokes his friends and tells
them it is tailor made, and that it cost
him $4,000, they cannot but believe it.
Many an instance of this kind has
come to our notice, on our $3.50, $500,
and $1,000 suits. True, it doesn't at
once give us full benefit of our efforts
to excel in our product, but we rest
content that in time 1--WE will become
famous through it." Don't you be too
slow to discover us. The sooner you
realize the worth of this store and this
stock the sooner you will become salts
fed with your clothing and your cash
account. Yours for excellence, NJ.

WANTS FIRE INSURANCE.
Two Suits Filed as Result of Same
Fire.

Two suits against fire insurance
companies were filed in the Superior
Court yesterday because of the alleged
refusal of the corporations to pay the
loss occasioned by a fire at No. 533 In
dian street on April 20 last.
H. B. Jones is suing the Continental
Insurance Company of New York for
s247.26. 1t is alleged that a certain
policy was issued on Dec. 10, 1900, to
G. F. Jones, and covered a certain
stock of groceries carried at the In
dian street address. 1t is contended
that the holder of the policy assigned
it to the plaintiff and that the COM
pany refused to pay over the value of
the goods lost in the fire.
Mr.. 1. D. Mikell sues the Insurance
Company of North America, of Phila-
delphia, for the same amount, and the
petition relates a similar condition of
affairs, except that the policy was
transferred to the plaintiff by Jones &
Dekle. Mr.. D. H. Clark represents the
plaintiff in each case.
