A NEW PRINCIPLE IN MEDICAL
SCIENCE.

For years it has been the practice Of med.
ical men to treat patients suffering from piles
by local, external applications. These treat
ments give but temporary relief, but haye
never affected a positive cure.
After months Of research and study, ac-
companied by actual experience with various
patients, DR.. c. A. Perrin arrived at posi-
tive conclusion as to the exact action of the
various parts Of the bowel system, under
different conditions, and when subjected to
various prescriptions.
He finally prepared that wonderful inter-
nal remedy known as DR.. PERKINS, PILE
SPECIFIC, which is put up in bottles, retail
ing at all reliable drug stores for 81 90 each.
This internal remedy has been on the mar
ket for the past ten years, and in all Of that
time there has been but three cases where
positive cure has not been effected.
DR.. PERKINS, Pile Specific IS sold under s
positive guarantee by the druggist making
the sale, to refund the full purchase price,
providing the remedy fails to cure. This il
the absolute proof Of its merit. Any man
or woman who suffers from blind, bleeding,
itching orinternal piles can try this internal
remedy with the absolute certainty that It
will cost nothing unless it cures. Hero =

remedy:
