Piles
Can't Be Cured From the Outside.

Can't 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 hab- by.
 almost dead.
 To quickly and safely rid yourself of piles you must free the circulation send a fresh current through the stag nant pools. Internal treatment is the one safe method.
 J. S. Leonhardt, M. D., set at work some years ago to find 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.
