AN UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE.

Has it ever been your unhappy lot to
be told BY your physician that you
must go to a hospital and submit to an
operation? If so. you remember with
what dread and shrinking you awaited
the day when you must endure the
knife.
The present day surgeon appears to
be possessed by mania for operating.
especially in cases of hemorrhoids or
piles, and while the greater number Of
the procession do not recommend this
last resort" unless they honestly be-
lie:e it necessary, the fact remains that
mich needless operating is done, and
tho patient put to much expense and
suffering for what?
TO obtain a possible temporary relief:
these words are used advisediy. he
cause in nine cases out of ten the
aflliction returns and the patient is
just where he started from. Often
times he could be cured much more
simply and easily by the use of such a
remedy as the Pyramid Pile Cure: this
has come to be recognized as the hest
remedy on the market for the painful
disease named. and the druggists now
sell more Of it than all other pile
remedies combined
The writer personally knows people
who were afflicted with the worst form
of bleeding and protruding piles and
who We're permanently cured by the
use of Pyramid Pile Cure. In every
one of these cases the attending physi-
clan had assured the sufferer that onlv
by an operation could he rid himself of
the disease; so much for the infalli-
bility of the doctors.
This remedy which is sold by all
druggists at the low price Of fifty cents.

directly TO the parts affected. and per-

TRADITION.
New Senators Now Take an Active
Part in First Session.

Part in First Session.
Recent events have smashed a SEN
atorial tradition. For years the new
ser ator who did more than present
petitions, introduce bills, answer to
the roll call, or o his pair
during his first session was too for
ward and pointed out as the mar who
did not conform to the state regula-
tons. But that tradition is a thing
Of the past. Perhaps 1t may again be
revived and new senators made aware
that, like little children, they should.
be seen and not heard. but for the
present the unwritten law of a century
has been put far back on the shelf.
The tradition was really fractured
in the last congress-. This year the
tradition has been broken into frag-
ments. Senators Newlands, Fulton,
Clarke of Arkansas, Stone, Hopkins,
Latimer, McCreary, and Overman have
all made speeches and some of them
have engaged in debate with older
senators. These men, having opinions,
have expressed them; having argu-
ments to make, they have presented
them to the senate. And not n
SEEM the worse for it. Business in
the senate proceeds as usual, and the
new men get as respectful a hearing
and as close attention as some of the
older senators-a mighty sight more
than some senators.
