Don't Let Your
 Piles Grow
EVERY HEMORRHOIDAL ULCER IS A FERTILE FIELD FOR CANCER AND OTHER DEADLY
 DISEASES.
Trial Package Free.

Constipation unchecked brings in fiammation, inflammation begets piles and piles too often superinduce tumors of malignant nature.
 It is utmost folly to allow this con- dition to continue. If you have piles the veins of the rectum are congested, and the excessive straining of the ab- dominal walls to force passage in many cases leads to rupture and cracking of the tissues,
 There is no greater suffering than thhs If you are a sufferer from piles you know it. It is foolish to think that any amount of cathartics will re- lieve you. On the contrary purga- tives are favorable to the production of hemorrhoids. Do not be deceived either by the illusion that an operation always cures. It sometimes does, but
The daily morning journal and courier., 1906-12-06

the agony of the operation is too great to warrant the experiment, except as a last resort.
 There is only one natural way to cure piles. There are medicants which together heal the mucous membrane of the bowels and rectum and give it life The Pyramid Drug Co. have prepared suppositories convenient for insertion into the affected part and containing the soothing, healing, invig- orating medicines needed to effect a quick and permanent cure. That these do cure piles is proved by the volunta- ry testimonials of thousands.
 By every mail we get letters like this:
 Wishing to give credit where cred it is due, feel it my duty to humanity as we'll as yourselves to write you regarding your pile remedy. I have not finished my first box and am now well, After my first treatment of Pyramid Pile Cure, the soreness left, and the swellings have kept decreas- ing. also used your pills and am feeling like myself again. Thanking you kindly, I am yours truly, c. Crow ley, 17O 9th avenue, Seattle Wash

P Pyramid Building, Marshall, Mich, and you will receive a free trial package by return mail After you have used the contents of this pack age you can secure exactly the same medicine, if you will ask for the Pyra- mid Pile Cure.
