Several famous American physicians and
surgeons we're recently dining together

II had a remarkable case this winter"
remarked a surgeon present, whose name
as a specialist in rectal diseases is world
wide. MY patient was a woman. a deli
cate. nerve racked creature, who had suf-
fered so fearfully from the ravages Of
hemorrhoids that the knife seemed the
only solution Of the trouble, and yet her
heart was weak and her strength so wasted
BY this fearful disease that we dared not
operate.
II had ceased my visits to her for a time
and had given up all hope, when one morn
ing she entered my once looking like a ne "
woman; the pallor had disappeared and tho
lines Of suffering we're nearly eradicated
from her face. She told me that she had
purchased a proprietary medicine. namely.
Pyramid Pile Cure, and that from the hrst
insertion Of the suppositories she had OBJ
tanned instant relief. / made an examina-
ton and found the rectum in excellent con-
dition, the Inflammation entirely disap-
peared and the swollen veins in normal con-
dition.
IL was so interested in the case that l
had the remedy analysed carefully and was
so pleased with the result Of the analysis,
finding a combination of the most healing
and scientific remedies present In the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure and in a more convenient
form than ! could secure them otherwise,
that I wrote to the Pyramid Drug Company
at Marshall, Mich, asking for their booklet
on Piles. their Nature. Cause and Cure.
(Which by the way is sent free.) and have
since used their Pile Cure extensively and
with best results in my practice. I do not
