ITCHING PILES AND OTHER RECTAL
TROUBLES EASILY CURED BY A
NEW ANDSAFE METHOD.
A Rcnnirlaiblo Number of Cures Made
by tho Pyramid I'llrt Cure.
About one perFon In every four suf
fers from some form of rectal disease.
Tho most common and annoying Is
Itching piles, lndlcntod by warmth,
slight moisture and Intense, uncontrol
lable Itching In tho pnrts affected.
The usual treatment has been some
simple ointment or snlve which some
times give temporary relief, but noth
ing like a. permanent cure can bo ex
pected from such superficial treatment.
The only permnnont cure for Itching
piles yet discovered is the Pyramid
Pile Cure, not only for Itching piles,
but for overy other fotin of piles, blind,
bleeding or protruding. The first ap
plication gives Instant relief nnd the
continued use for a shoit time causes
a permanent removal of the tumors or
the small parasites which cause tho In
tense Itching and discomfort of Itch
ing piles.
SInny physicians for a long time sup
posed that the remarkable relief af
forded by the Pyramid Pile Cure was
because It was supposed to contain
cocaine, opium or similar drugs, but
such Is not tho case. A recent careful
analysis of the temedy showed It to
be absolutely free from any cocaine,
opium, or in fnct any poisonous, In
jurious drugs whatever.
For this reason the Pyramid Pile
Cure Is probably tho only pile cure ex
tensively recommended by physicians,
because It Is so safe, so prompt In tho
reller nffotded and so far as known the
only positive cure for piles except a
surgical operation.
In one year tho Pyiamld Pile Cure
has become tho best known, the safeat
and the most extensively sold of any
pile cure before the public.
Nearly all druggists now sell it at 50
cents and $1 per package.
Address tho Pyramid Co., Marshall,
Sllch., for book on cnuse and cure of
piles nnd also hundreds of testimon
ials from all parts of the United States.
If suffering from any form or piles
ask your druggist for a package ot
Pyramid Pile Cure and try It tonight.
