HOW TOJIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let It stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling Indicates

corrects Inability to hold urine and
scalding pain In passing it, or bad ef
fect following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to uri
nate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp Root Is soon realized.

WHAT IS YOUR TRADE?
Encli Trnde or Occupation Hns Its
.Special Disease.
It Is well known among medical men
that certain diseased ere more lendlly
developed In certain occupations than
In o iti'i that I'u'li occupation has Its
attendant physical weakness. Engi
neer, railroad men and similar occu
pations suffer mostly from Kidney
troubles and men who are often expos
ed to the weuther suffer from rheu
matism, while clerks und professional
men, In fact the army of people whose
business keeps th"m Indoors, are often
times great sufferers from plies and
constipation. In this connection the
following letter Is of Interest to people
whose occupation w III not allow sitlll
clcr.t outdoor exercise.
Mr. A. F. Calhoun, notary public nnd
Jeweler and watchmaker of Clreleville,
W, Vn writes as follows:
I had ben a severe sufferer from
piles for years and list! tiled many rem
edies with but little benefit, when about
three years ago I saw the Pyramid Pile
Cure advertised and twnt for it.
I wps badly afflicted when I got them,
but nfter onlv twe applications, the
piles disappeared and from that day
to this I have never felt a symptom of
the disease.
I feel that I cannot recommend them
too highly to suffereis from piles.
The Pyramid Pile Cure Is tree from
cocoaln, opium or any mineral poison,
absolutely safe, pleasant and painless;
sold by druggists at 50 cents per pack
age. If there is any constipation the
Pyramid Pills should be used with the
pile cure. The pills are 23 cents per
package.
Any diugglst will tell you that the
Pyramid Is the best known and innat
successful an 1 popular pile cure ever
placed on the market and Its reputation
as a safe and radical cure has only re
sulted from the personal recommenda
tion of people who have been cured of
this distressing nllment.
Send to Pyramid Co., Albion, Mich.,
for valuable little book on cause and
euro of piles.
