 To quickly and safely rid yourself of piles you must free the circulation sent a fresh current through the stagnant pools. Internal treatment is the one safe method.

COMPILING DATA
 FOR PARATION
Commission Taking Stock Of German Resources and Finances

Berlin, Nov. 23.-A vast mass of material on German raw materials, productivity, labor wages and the country's financial status is being gathered by the members of the guar antics commission, the b-committce of the separations commission now in Berlin.
 Almost daily, consultations are be- ing held with various government of 1cials as well as financial and indus trial leaders as to the prospects of Germany meeting her $100, 0,000,000 gold installment to the allied powers on January 3 and in some of these conferences, Roland w. Boyden and Col. James A. Logan, the unofficial American epresentatiVes, are having a part. The second of four install ments another $100, GOO, is due next April.
 The commissioners are expected to yemain here until December 1, when they will go back to Paris to report to the full separations commission. One of the most important phases of their investigation has been currency imitation and the decline of the mark It is interesting to note that since the separations payments began last May the outstanding paper money circula- ton in Germany jumped from 69,724,- 403.00 marks to 91.347, 7,10l,o00 marks for the week ending October 31.
 A comparison with pre-War issues shows even more pronouncedly the extent of infiation For instance, in the week ending July 25, 1912, the paper money issue aggregated only 1,o04,260,000 marks The same week of 1913 it was 1,626.920, GOO marks and in 1914 it was 1890, ,S93,o0o.
