MUNICIPAL
 OWNERSHIP

is a topic you hear discussed very or ten, particularly around election time. The other evening we heard three ''heelers" arguing the question:; one was a full-aedged gobbler of all fran chises, while the other two didn't en- tfrely make up their minds. Well, tue first spokesman was "corker" with the gift of gab., He showed the others why the municipality should own the gas, the railways, the electric cars and electric lights and a, hundred and one other things, but he didn't seem to make the right impress sion until he showed that by control- ling the breweries it would be good thing. That settled it. Just at tials stage of the conversation they tookRa walk and a certain tea man &got to thinking about municipal ownership land the more he thought of the brew cries the heartier he laughed because he knew it would be darn good thing if for no other reason than to make vast majority of the voters take a special interest about election. It's queer the stuff they make in brew cries takes such q hold on people. How much better off they'd be if they would drink nothing stronger than tea and coffee. The kind we sell is the good kind. If you don't believe us. try it. A few sleeve ironing boards left; one with a pound. Our butter is as usual the good kind. 25c per pound at

DANGEROUS SURGERY.
Should Be the Last Resort.

Many people suffer from piles, be-
cause after trying various lotlons,
salves and ointments without relief or
cure, they come to the conclusion that
a surgical operation is the last resort,
and rather than submit to the shock
ana risk to life of an operation, prefer
to suffer on; very often, however. the
afflicted one is over persuaded to re-
sort to the knife, and even though the
operation is apparently successful, and
there is complete recovery from the
shock incident thereto, the result is in
variably the same; the piles sooner or
later return because their cause has
not been removed. The result is a
logical one, inasmuch as the knife re-
moves the effects of the disease only,
while the cause remains as before.
There is claimed to be a remedy which
does remove the cause. hence eradicat-
ing the disease, and that is the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure: it is in the form of a
suppository, it is applied directly to
the parts afflicted, and brings about a
complete cure, quietly and painlessly.
In this connection the testimony of Mr..
John Cullen Bryant the wellknown
bookseller of Haverhill, Mass, is of
unusual interest.
Il desire to contribute an unsolicited,
but purely voluntary testimonial in
favor of Pyramid Pile Cure. l have
suffered for more than twenty years
with hemorrhoids, and have consulted
physicians and expended a great
deal Of money for medicines that
did me no good. | had often seen
Pyramid Pile Cure advertised, but
hesitated for months before buying
same, thinking it patent or quack
remedy that had no merit; but having
tried every other remedy prescribed
was finally persuaded one year ago, to
try Pyramid Pile Cure. l bought a
fifty cent package at the drug store
and while may not be permanently
cured, the past year has been the only
year of my life worth living during the
past twenty years, and nothing but the
Pyramid remedies have wrought the
change. offer this testimony for the
benefit of suffering humanity

There is one young man in the city
who recently took to himself a wife,
who is mourning seriously the fact that
his best laid plans for this event Of
events have been smashed into cX-
tremely small pieces. The intentions OF
this young man had been understood
for some time and while serenades are
a thing of the past in most civilized
communities, this fellow feared a re-
turn to barbarism. And well he might,
for that was the intention of his near
est friends. SO he quietly suggested
that the knot be tied secretly. 1t was
given out that this would take place,
last evening. but instead of waiting for
this time to come around the young
couple made a visit to the Methodist
parsonage, Wednesday evening, and
came away man and wife. But alas.
When they thought they were the
safest from molestation they were in
the most danger. AS they wendell their
way up toward North street they were
met by bowling multitude. armed
with all the instruments by which the
ear of man was ever tortured. They
found that their proposed home had
fallen into the hands of the enemy
and that instead of the peace and
quetness which they had desired they
were destined to be the center of a
multitude Of tormentors. After this
party had left, another came later in
the evening. This young man will here
after move in the broad open light Of
the day instead Of under the cover of
darkness, as he says he thinks it pays
in the long run.

Miles Scroggins was more than so
years old, noted for his droll wit and
funny sayings, but had never attempt
ed to make speech. All the MEM
bers of the club believed he could
speak if he would try, and frequently
attempted to have him make the ef.
fort.
1t was finally determined to compel
him to speak. So, upon the assembling
of the club, he was called upon and.
declining to comply, the boys grabbed
him and forcibly placed him upon a
table. amidst the cheers of the crowd.
To the astonishment Of all he mani
tested great embarrassment. The
crowd continued to yell, and final
ly he broke forth as follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen: Oh, ! beg
your pardon, there are no ladies' pres
ent, and id few gentlemen, II
any"
After this sally the curiosity OF the
crowd was satisfied and no further
effort was made to have Scroggins
make a speech.-Buffalo Courier.

Greek, is very fond OF flowers, and,
some days ago, on returning from his

yard a pestferous calf belonging to a
neighbor. The doctor gave chase, and
the animal plunged toward the flower
pit, and IN another instant crashed
through the glass cover and mixed at
random with the pots and plants be-
low. When another professor passed
a few minutes later, he said, gravely:
IL do not understand, DR.. Varnadoe,
why you should object 30 seriously to
having a modest cowslip added to
your fine collection Of plants" The
Doctors frowning face relaxed. "Ah.
