Piles
Cant Be Cured From the Outside.


 External treatments seldom cure Piles.
 Nor do surgical operations.
 The cause is inside-bad circulation.
 The blood is stagnant, the veins fiab- by.
 The bowel walls are weak, the parts almost dead.
 To quickly and safely rid yourself of piles you must free the circulation send a fresh current through the stag nanr pools. Internal treatment Is the one safe method
 J. S. Leenhardt, N. D., set at work some years ago to lind a real internal Pile remedy. He succeeded. He named his prescription HEM-ROID, and tried it in 1000 cases before he was satisfied. Now HEM-ROID Is sold by druggists everywhere under guarantee. It's easy to take, and can always be found at Lee & Osgood's. who will gladly re- fund the purchase price to any dis satisfied customer.

She stole up along the wall, but the
window was too high for her. SeaFch-

was able to bring her face to the bars.
