OPERATIONS NOT ALWAYS
NECESSARY.
Doctors Frequently Mistaken.

Il suffered untold agony with niles
for over three years. Two doctors told
me nothing but an operation would
cure me. l tried different remedies
but nothing did me any good until
used Pyramid Pile Cure. I bought elk
fifty cent boxes at the drug store and
now | can do my work and go out
where before I spent most of my time
lying down. | thank God for giving
the discoverer the Knowledge to ma ke
such a cure. I recommend it to all my
friends. and if l eve have piles again
will certainly use this remarkable
remedy. You can use this in any way
YOU wish to make known the WONDER
full merit of Pyramid Pile Cure" Mrs
WIZ Mucky, 81 Marshall street. Eliza
beth. n. ].
The experience of this lady is that Of
thousands of others who have been as
sured that nothing short of an oper-
alton would rid them Of this distressing
complaint On the face of it, it ap-
pears as if too many surgeons operate
in order that they may keep their hand
in. and lose no portion of their skill;
then, again, too many surgeons are
anxious to experiment Oike the
scientific man in Mark Twain's
pathetic story of the dog and her little
puppy. and do not have proper regard
for a patients physical welfare or con-
dition.
We ADVISE every sufferer to think
twice before submitting to an operation
for piles. and suggest that those inter-
ested write to the Pyramid Drug Co.,
Marshall. Mich. for their little BOOK on
the causes and cure Of piles. which is
sent free for the asking. octil-i'

doubtful if in any state the vote is
more evenly divided among the con-

Mistake of Word. Not Shirt.

That Nine. Schumann-Heink is not
always able to express herself in Eng
lish as she can in song is illustrated
by the following little story that is
circulated at her expense: 1t seems
that among her friends she has the
reputation for remarkable tact and
adaptability. Not long ago,-in CONVEX
sation with an intensely patriotic
American, the talk quite naturally
turned upon the subject of the Ameri-
can flag.
oh" said the singer, turning her
rapturous gaze full upon her compan-
ion, 81 do love your flag. Why, in my
home in Germany we do hiss it on our
house every Fourth of July" and it
was not until later that she learned
from an obliging friend that the word
"hiss" was not the same as hoist" in
America

of interest to Peach Growers.

A bulletin is in course of prepare
ton at the Department of Agriculture,
it is said, describing a method of ex-
terminating a peach tree parasite
known as little peach" The reason
this pest was so named is because a
tree bearing large fruit when attacked
by these parasites is affected by the
disease commonly knoyn among peach
growers Of western Maryland as the
Ego back" and thereafter produces a
small and bitter peach, instead of the
former large and luscious product.
The Agricultural Department experts
have been experimenting with this
matter for ten years, it is stated.
Mr.. Morton B. Waite, chief OF the di-
vision of orchard fruits, reports that
the parasite can be exterminated by
cutting out of the orchard every tree
affected by the little peach"

Less Fiction in Demand.

Boston, as shown by the public IL
brary report, read 11.51 per cent less
fiction last year than the year before.
1t seems. however, that this result
was chiefly due to the restrictive eff
forts of the librarian, who says that "of
$50 volumes of fiction passed under
consideration during the year only 135
titles were accepted" Even at that
rate of rejection it would have been
rather difficult for Bostonians to keep
up with the output of the story tellers,
as the reader would have had to wade
through over eleven dozen novels in
twelve months.

Doctors as Book Buyers.

''The largest part of a doctors
equipment is his books" said A. d.
Patten. Physicians usually keep
more closely up with the procession
from the viewpoint of books than law
yers. The doctors have to do it, be-
cause of their reputation among their
associates depends upon the accuracy
and the modern finish Of their knowl-
edge.
"a lawyer can more easily dispense
with new law books than a doctor with
the late medical books. An up-to-date
doctor has a much more expensive
library, as rule, than minister, and
it is almost as expensive. Judge, as a
lawyers, the difference being that a
lawyers whole equipment is books.
