DANGEROUS sURGBRY
Should he the Last Resort,

Many people suffer from piles, be-
cause after trying various lotions,
| salves and ontments without relief or
cure, they come to the conclusion that
surgical operation Is the last resort,
and rather than submit to the shock
and risk to life of an operation, prefer
to suffer on very often, however, the
afflicted one Is over persuaded to resort
to the knife. and even though the oper-
alton 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. This result is Il
logical one, inasmucli 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
suppository, is applied directly to the
parts affected, and brings about COM
plete cure, quietly and painlessly. In
this Connection the testimony of Mr..
John Cullen Bryant, the well known
bookseller of Haverhill, Mass, Is of
unusual interest.

but purely voluntary testimonial in

IN HONOR OF ST. PATRICK.
Observance of Erin's Patron Saint in
Carbondale.


one of the quietest and most unevent-
full observances OF ST. Patrick's day in
Carbondale marked the recurrence yes
terday of the feast of Erin's patron
saint.
While the day was generally OBJ
served among the sons of Erin, the
mines and some workshops being shut
down, there was no public demonstra-
tion of any character. TO those who
made the day one of rest and recrc-
alton, 1t had all the aspects of a holl-
day. There were number of visitors
in town, which is the survival of an
old custom, and numerous persons left
the city to spend the day with friends.
The theatre was quite an attraction,
and both performances at the Grand
were crowded with audiences, through
which there was n generous sprinkling
of green ribbons and other novelties of
emerald, significant OF the feast that is
always joyous occasion to an Irish
man.
The religious observance of the feast
was marked by the celebration of two
masses in st. Rose church, the first at
and the latter at 8 o'clock. The 8
o'clock service was the more import
ant. 1t was a solemn high mass, sung
at the instance of the knights of
Father Mathew, who observed an an
nual custom. Rev. Walter German was
celebrant; Very Rev. r. F. Coffey.
deacon; Rev. George Dixon, sub
deacon.
The Very Rev. Father Coffey delv-
cred eulogy on Saint Patrick, in the
course of which he bade his hearers to
benefit by the example of the saints
life of faith and devotion.

ell not meeting, ana that the city con-
troller, who met him earlier in the
evening, expressed the wish for this
congestion to be relieved that he might
clear up his affairs before leaving
Office.

The Colgate Glee and Mandolin
Clubs Will Have Good Audience.

Although hut a few Autographs of
the Colgate University Glee and Banjo
clubs have been distributed, and little
more than a bare announcement has
been made through the press, between
200 and 800 tickets have already been
sold by the energetic ladies of the Bap-
tist church. This means that the sue
cess of the Easter concert is fully as

When the diagram opens at Clarks
drug store next Monday night. the
rush for seats will doubtless equal that
which has attended the most popular
entertainments of the season. The la

already in sight. The patronage of

Elegantly Served in Parlors of Con-

The young ladies of the Congrega-

very unique supper last evening in the
school room.
For some time the ladies have been
considering the advisability of serving

they decided to serve *" supper.
The unique feature of the occasion was
the menu card. which was printed on a

was served began with this letter.

congratulated for the graceful and
courteous manner in which they at
tended to the wants of those who We're
present. The tables We're very artisti-
