No brass is prouder than that which

Eat the honey thou canst find: drink

80 PER CENT OF THE ADULT pop
ULATION SUFFER FROM ONE
PAINFUL AILMENT.

Think what this means. Imagine the
amount of misery that exists and is endured
simply because people do not know there is
an absolute cure.
The only way to cure any complaint is to
remove the cause. There are very few dis
eases or ailments that can be cured by ex
ternal application-and piles is not one c.
them. Piles can be cured; the treatment
must, however, be internal, for the cause OF
piles is an internal disorder of the liver or
the bowels. Even catarrh of the stomach
and bowels can be cured by DIR. PERKINS,
PILE SPECIFIC, The Internal Remedy.
Here is an instance of what this practically
infallible remedy will do:
DIR. c. A. Perrin, Helena, Mont.-Dear
Sir: have nearly finished the former bottle
of PERKINS, Pile Specific and am practically
well. My case was one which most physi-
clans would have pronounced incurable, as
was afflicted with dysentery and compelled
to 60 to the toilet room from three to five
times each day and each time would bleed
from one-haf to one. teacupfuL I had to
resort to bandages and absorbent cotton to
check the flow of blood, and now the past
ten or twelve days there has been no sign Of
bleeding and my appetite is good have
gained ten pounds in weight and feel like a
new lease of life was given me. .t#',

John Horne Demands Settlement Of
Balance Long Due.
An appeal has been male to the
district court by John Horne to order
A. sansome to pay him a balance on
account said to be due since February
Is, 1899. In his complaint, filed with
the clerk of the court yesterday,
Horne alleges that Sansome owes him
the SUN of $521.47. and appends an
itemized bill a little shorter than a
clothes line in support of his claim.
1t is charged that the amount sued
for represents the unpaid portion of
a claim that originally footed up
$1,776.13. The items given run the
gamut of almost every commodity
payable in money, the charges being
for labor performed as a farm hand,
teamster, a builder, cash advanced,

A brand new Sherlock Holmes play
is coming to the opera house Sept.
9, the piece being rather a free dra-
matization of A. Conan Doyle's "The
Sign of the Four" and bearing the
same title as that thrilling tale of adj
venture. The story, SO far as the de-
tective portion goes, follows quite
closely to that of the novel. The four
con%spirators seeking the great Agra
treasure are successfully discovered
and routed by DIR. Doyle's unique de-
ductive spirit, assisted by the sympe-
thetic DR.. Watson and the figures of
Tonga, the East Indian dwarf; of
Jones, the pompously laundering
Scotland Yard man; and of the peg
legged villain, Jonathan Small, are all
brought into due prominence. Since
DR.. Doyle neglected to provide a love
interest, as was the case in his later
Sherlock Holmes tales, a romantic
attachment is interpolated Involving
the great detective and the charming
Mary Marston. The play is welcome
for it's re-introduction of this most in
teresting of fictive sleuth heroes, as
we'll as !or itself.
