Piles
Cant Re Cured from the Outside.

Cant Re Cured from the Outside.
 External treatment seldom cure Piles.
 Nor do surgical operations.
 The cause is inside--bad circula- ton.
 The blood is stagnant, tho veins flabby.
 The bowel walls arc weak. the parts almost dead.
 To quickly and safely rid yourself of piles you must free the circulation send a fresh current through the stagnant pools. Internal treatment is the one safe method.
 J. s. Lconhardt. M. D.. set at work some years ago to find a real internal Pile remedy. He succeeded. He named his prescription HEM-Ro1D. 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 Clark X Brainerd Co, who will gladly refund inc pur- chase price to any dissatisfied custom- CT.

puDtls Shnsy Thrift

American school children are get
ting rich; -Four years ago they had
about 100000 on deposit in the
school savings banks of the United
states. Now they have within a few
thousand dollars of $2.000,UOO.
The years between 1919 and 1922
have seen a swift and steady in
crease in deposits. and the American
Banking Association considers the
big jump one of the curiosities of
banking history.
Various explanations for the
growth OF deposits are suggested.
One is that the thrift campaign of
the war years is still having its effect
on the young people
Another is that the Strengthened
times since the war have made thrift
necessary in most families. and the
Young have caught the idea from
their parents.
Then, too, OF course. the movies
are not SO popular as they were.
