SURGICAL OPERATIONS
FOR THE CURE OF PILES AND RECTAL
DISEASES NO LONGER NECESSARY.
A Medical Dlscotery Which Will Change the
Treatment of All Such Dilutes.
It has long been thought not only
by some physicians but by people in
general, that the common, painful and
exceedingly annoying trouble, plies,
was practically Incurable by any other
means than a surgical operation and
this belief has been the cause of years
of needless suffering, becauso of the
nut ut ul dread of suiglcal operations.
Theie ure many salves, ointments and
similar remedies on the market which
afford somo relief in cases of piles, but
tho Pyramid Pile Cure is the only prep
aration so far introduced that can be
reliably depended upon to euro to stay
cured, every form of Itching, bleeding
or protruding piles.
Mrs. M. C. Hlnkley, of 601 Mississippi
street, Indianapolis, was told by her
physicians that nothing but a surgical
operation costing between seven and
eight hundred dollars, could cure her
as she had stifteted for fifteen years;
et even in such a case ns hers the
Pyramid Pile cure accomplished a
complete cure. She says: "I knew an
operation would be death to me and
tried the Prnmld with very llttlo hope
nnd It Is not to be wondered at that
I am so enthusiastic in Its praise."
Mr. D. E. Iteed, of 'South Lyons,
Mich., says: I would not tako $500 and
be placed back where I was before I
used the Pytamld Pile Cute, I suffered
for years and It Is now eighteen months
since I used It and not the slightest
trace of the trouble has returned
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by
nearly all dtugglsts at CO cents and $1
per package and as It contains no
opium, cocaine or other poisonous
drugs can be used with perfect safety.
No one need suffer from piles in any
foim who will give this excellent rem
edy a. trial. Send for book on cause
and cure of piles, sent free by address

Interest. Tito clientele docs not change
so rapidly as in cities, and one gets
better acquainted with family traits
and peculiarities. These aro sometimes
very marked. I am acquainted with
certnln families In which the prognosis
In nnv serious disease Is bad from the
start, while I know other families In
which I should never think of giving
a patient up unless recovery was Im
possibleuntil actually moribund. I
wish it were in my power to describe
adequately some of the more import
ant cases that have come under my
notice.
The early years of my practice in
this town were pecullntly hard. There
weie two other physicians in it, but
they were both advanced in ycats
considerably older than the writer him
self is today. They were both of ex
cellent repute In the community, und
when the Infirmities of age would al
low them to attend they were sure to
be called upon. As n consequence of
this the greater part of my business
was In the ndjolnlng towns. Living on
tho seacoast where the land is much
intersected by estuaries, a latge part
of my mnctlce was reached by cross
ing the water or by traveling on foot.
Many a time have I been routed from
my bed at 12 and 1 o'clock at night In
the dead of winter, and been rowed a
mile or more across the water, and
then had to walk up to my knees in
snow for several miles. When I came
here there were but live horses In the
village, and very few in the surround
ing towns, so that walking was often
a necessity. I did not ride a bicycle,
because there were none: roads were
too poor. I remember on two occa
sions after crossing the water I had to
walk five miles in the' deep snow. I
went solely as a matter of duty. I un
doubtedly saved the life of my patient,
and he paid me vv Ith a promise to
btlng me some fish
Much of my early practice was on
somewhat distant Islands, and though
the trip was enjoyable enough in pleas
nnt summer weather In a good yacht,
it was decidedly the reverse In an open
boat in a winter's gnle. Tho trips in
a summer fog though not dangerous
were not exatly agreeable. On several
occasions I have spent nearly the en
tire night on the water lowing aim
lessly about and unable to find my des
tination. The hardest time that I ever experi
enced was once In the spring when the
Ico was breaking up. I had a distance
of but three miles to go two by water
and one by land. I reached the place
after some delay, but on my return to
the shore I found the stream so full
of Moating Ice that It was Impassable.
I was so anxious to get back that I
offered tvventv-rive dollars to any one
who would undertake to get me across.
The amount oft'erel was five times that
of my fee. I could find no one who
would risk the attempt. 1 then got a
man to take me in Ills sleigh to a point
where the Ice had not broken up, so
that I might walk across. I started
for a house that I saw, but lost my
way on the ice and landed in thick
w oods. There had been a heavy storm
a day or two before and I floundered
around in the snow, one minute on a
rock or boulder and the next up to my
neck in a drift, until I became so ex
hausted that after I at length got sight
of the house I could not get to it until
I had lain down on the imow and rested
nearly half an houi. I left my home
nt S a. m. and did not get back until
7 p. m. I lost twenty dollars by being
away and have never fully recovered
from the exposure and fatigue I under
went. Fortunately advancing years
bring some alleviations I leave all
such trips now for my Juniors.

Sweet Cupid sat on a mossy b'vnk.
With a tc&r In his round, bluo eye,
His wing were draggled with bllver dew,
And his nulver and bow flung by,
The butterflies camo from the garden
near
And perched on his dimpled tnex.
And a honey-bee sipped nt his llmple lip,
And thought It an opening rose,
"Not an nrrow went to Its mark today,
"I wasted them nil,' ho slKhed,
"My wings and my curls too well they
know.
So the men and the maidens hide,
My mother must clip my pinions close,
And must braid my locks of gold,
And I'll borrow the frock of a damsel
fnlr,
My roseate limbs to fold."
So now no moro in the flowery Mold
Or the woods where tho thrushes sing
Do wo henr the patter of nnktd feet,
Or tho sweep of an ulry wing,
Ho has stolen the gown of n pretty girl,
And her hat with its drooping plume,
And a cluster of velvety bluo
From hlH breast to shed perfume.
Ho has donned her veil with its hordetert
edge,
And her gloves of the palest gtay,
And hides his brow In her tluffv fan
Ho has clipped his wings and braided his
curls.
Hut beware of his roguish eyes,
Tor sly llttlo Cupid Is still the same,
