OVERLOOKED.
There Arc Patent Medicines and
Remedies Without Number
For Every Disease and affection
But Ono.


A prominent physician was recently
asked why it was that there are SO many
blood purifiers" nerve tonics and rem
edies for every i'll. except one of the most
common and annoying. viz. piles. He re-
Piled: There are two principal reasons
First physicians and people in general
have thought that the only permanent
cure for piles was a surgical operation;
that medicinal preparations were simply
palliative. Another rea son is. that piles Is II
no sense of the word an imaginary dis
ease; the sufferer from piles is very much
aware of the fact, and for this reason the
few so-called pile salves. ointments, ETC..
have been short-Iived. The patient very
soon discovered their ineticiency."
He says, further, Fortunately. however.
there is new remedy for piles. which
judging from its rapidly growing popular
ity, will soon take the place OF all othes
trea tment; 1t has certainly made astonfsh-
ing cures in this obstinate disease, and its
merit has made it famous among physici-
ans, and wherever 1t has been introduced.
This remedy is sold by all druggists, uu-
der the name Of Pyramid Pile Cure.
From the immediate relief which the
Pyramid Pile Cure gives in all forms of
piles, many physicians supposed it con-
tanned opium, cocaine. or some similar
substance, but upon analysis it was found
TO be perfectly free from anything OF the
kind, and that the instant relief and cure
which follows its use is rather the result
of its remarkable healing, soothing action
OH the parts affected.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is the only rem
edy, except a surgical operation, which
Immediately relieves and permanently
cures every form Of piles.
It is sold by druggists at 50 cents and 81,
or by mail from Pyramid Drug CO.. Mar
