Public Gradually Awakens to the Fact.
The latest fad In operations has been
the appendicitis fad; before that the

case of hemorrhoids or piles only, cas-
lily cured at home, with simple rem
edy costing but fifty cents a box.
IT procured one fifty cent box OF
Pyramid Pile Cure of my druggist with
the intention of buying larger box
later, but was happily surprised When
I found that was cured, and still
have six pyramids, left out of the 1irst
and only box. have not had the least
sign OF piles since used this one boS'
which has been about two months,
previous to using Pyramid Pile cure
I had the worst kind of bleeding ana
protruding piles tor over thirty years.
and no one knows, except those VINO
have had the piles, the pain and ms
cry suffered.
az am a poor man, but have often
said I would give a fortune, II l had
It, to be cured of the piles, and now
have been cured for fifty cents.

FROM Collier weeslr


John d.. Jr., was talking to his class
about their duty to increase the public
morality, when one bold younss,er asked
the Christian teacher about the ethics of
swearing off personal taxes, and having
several residences in different States to aid
in this fraud upon the Government
THAT, said the apostle, Is a matter
for each mans private conscience. Our
preacher personal assessment was reduced
this year from $500, 900 TO $3.50, 900
Reducing taxation is usually matter, not
of mere choice or request, but of solemn
statement under oath; and of course what
a man chooses to declare, upon an oath
which contains an appeal to what Mr..
Rockefeller deems most sacred, is entirely
a matter of his private conscience. Per
haps it would be better to give another
boost to the price of oil, and have plenty
of money for more liberal valuation of
one property. al can tolerate the lone
highwayman, writes one of our cores
pondents, ''who, after rifing the pockets
Of his victims, lets them 90, and he
wishes TO know, with some show of reason,
if the Rockefeller family will ever have
enough to let the public 60, instead of
continuing to wiring pennies FROM the poor
with eyes lifted upward and words of holy
exhortation. another advance, our
correspondent proceeds, ''said the coal-oll
man, who fills our FIVE gallon can for one
dollar and fifteen cents. "Well, what can
we do about it?' ''Grin and bear it. .
The coal-oil man was right. And yet we
are not sure it would not be better to keep
oil even a hundred per cent. above the
necessary price than to drive a sensitive
religious conscience to such exuemities
that it would under oath mislead the off
GERS of the law about the exact value of
property to be taxed.

Part of Fortune for Democratic Party

Col. Moses C. Wetmore, the millionaire
tobacco manufacturer of St. Louis, BY a
codicil to his viii has arranged to leave the
Democratic party, in perpetuity, large
sum Of money to be held as a permanent
fund ''for the good of the Democracy.
Col. Wetmore prepared his will several
months ago and intended TO keep this
unique bequest a secret, but hint dropped
in Washington by Senator Stone, Wet
more legal adviser and close friend, led
to the discovery He admitted he had
made the provision in his will, but neither
he nor Senator Stone will give any esti-
mate as to the amount. 1t can be said
positively that it is not less than 800, 900.
Colonel Wetmore intimates that if his
worldly affairs continue to prosper, he is
likely to make the sum much larger.
Other members of the party hope rich
Democrats elsewhere will take hiHt from
this bequest and see that the party is pro-
vided with the sinews of war. They say
Col. Wetmores contribution can be ac
cepted without any qualms, since he has
always been a consistent foe of trusts and
other things which the Democratic party
is supposed to fight constantly.
