doing ever since the world began
A man who carelessly saunters along the
hore of the insatiate sea of disease, will
aotne day encounter a great storm in the
form of some fatal malady and will be en.
gulfed. Because a man does not haye to go
to bed when he suffers from a trivial indt
grstion, becausr he does not have to give
up work when he gets nervous and cannot
kleep at night, because he can still force
down an unsatisfactory meal when he is
suffering from loss of appetite, because by
strong effort he can add a column of figures
with aching head is uo reason that these
disorders are trifling or to be neglected.
They are the warnings of serious sickness.
A man who promptly heeds them, and re
sorts to the right remedy, will speedily re
cover his usual health. The man who neg
lects them will find that he is in the grip
of consumption, some nervous disorder, or
' e other dread malady, due to improper
insufficient nutrition. Dr. Pierce's

STORY OF THE WEDDING RING.
Around It Cluster Many Curious Cer

"The wedding ilng Is made of gold
of the purest quality, signifying how

eternlty.lmplylng that 0111 regaid shall

Remarkable Success of a New Pile
Cure,
People who have suffered for months
or years from tho pain nnd Inconven
ience of that common disorder, piles,
will look- with Bkcptlclsm upon the
claims of tho makers of tho new dis
covery for euro of all forms of plies,
known under the name of Pyramid
Pllo Cure, nevertheless the extraordin
ary cures pci formed by this remedy
arc such as to wurrant the Investiga
tion of any sufferer. As a casu In point
the following lotlur speaks for Itself.
Mr. Henry Thomas, ot sub-station
No. 3, Hosack Ave., Columbus, Ohio,
writes ns follows:
Pyramid Drug Co.:
Gentlemen: I wnnt you to use my
name If It will be of any use to you.
I was so bad with tho piles that 1 lost
woik on thnt account. Nothing did me
any good. I read In Cincinnati ot the
many cures of piles by the Pyiamld
Pile Cure and I went to 11 drug store
nnd asked for It. The drug clerk told
II us that he had something cle that he
thought was better, but I told him that
t wanted to try the Pyramid Hrst.
The first box helped me so much
that I tried another unci then to com
plete the cure used two more boxes,
making four In nil. I am now complete,
ly cured. Have not a trace of piles and
1 had suffeied for four years with the
woist form of piotrudlng piles,
I suffered death fiom piles, but I hnve
found the Pyramid Pile Cure to be Just
as represented. I have recommended
It to several of my friends and 1 am
thankful to be able to write ou what
good the lemedy has done for me."
Physlcluns recommend the Pyramid
Pile Cure because It contains no opium,
localne, or mlneial poison of any kind,
and because It Is so safe and pleasant
to use, being painless nnd applied at
night. Tho patient Is cured In a sur
prisingly short time with no Inconven
ience whatever.
The Pvtamld Pile Cure Is sold by
druggists at 60 cents per package, and
If there Is any constipation It Is well
to use the Pyramid Pills at the same
time with the Pile Cine, as constipation
Is very often tho cause of piles and the
pills effectually remove tho costive con
dition. Price of pills Is 25 cents per
package.

Mich., for little book on cause and cure
of piles; sent by tnnll free.
torn has survived the ages and comes
down to us from lemoto antiquity.
Hut there are other leasons why It
should be worn on this flngei. Because
being a finger least used It may
bo least subject to be worn out, and
because Its distinct purpose Is that It
Is to be a vlhlble, lasting token of n
solemn convennnt which never must
b forgotten. It has been suggested,
also, thnt the lorm being round and
without end. Impoits that mutual love
shall flow fiom one to the other, as
In a citric, and that continually and
foievor.
"Sometimes wedding lings weie of
gemel pattern anil occasionally be
trothal rings weie broken In two,
one half of which was retained by earh
party, so that 'n the manlage day
tho pieces may be lolned. " Ac
cording to Rev. Charles Wheatl.v, the
commentator on the book of Common
Prayois, tho reason why the ring was
selected ns a pledge in preference to
any other thing was because among
the ancients rings weie used ns seals.
A lth them all valuable goods were
sealed, und all Important documents
weie signed; thus the delivery of a
rliu became the sign of highest tiust
and closest friendship. Consequently,
It was but natuial that a ring should
Vie selected to Hymbolle the admis
sion of a wlto to her husband's coun
sels, and signifying that hencefoith
he shared his honor and estate.
A routing to Selden. the wedding ilmr
came Into use among tho Jews after
they found It had been adopted by
other races. Some authorities claim
that It was given at one time Instead
of dowiy. The Hnglish-speaklng races
trace the use of the plain gold band
ns a pledge of wedlock to traditionary
practice of he Saxons."
HAWAIIAN BURIALS.
Piecautions to Preserve the Bones of
Chiefs front Vengeance After Death.
Some students of Hawaiian customs
declare that the people of the Islands
never weie cannibals. The popular
Idea that these new Amei leans have
been nourished on their friends and
relntlves arose probably In a misappre
hension of what happened to Captain
Cook after he was killed at Kealake
kua. The honorable sepultuie leserved for
chiefs and men of note mav have
caused the first voyagers about the
Islands to think that they had found
pi oof of the piactlce, which leally the
Hawaiians are said to have viewed
with as much hoiror as more civilized
laces. When a chief died It became
the duty of his ti ustv kahua. confiden
tial advisers in life and sworn to the
perfoimance of the last rites, to lemove
the body and bury It seoretly. That
which the Hawaiians honoied in bu
rial was the permanent pan of the
body, the flesh was tegaided as transi
tory and peilshable, and therefore not
woithy of sepultuie. The flesh ot the
coipse was cut off fiom the bones and
burned, the bones themselves were
cniefully cleaned, soaked In oil, und
burnished red with turmeric. Tied up
togethei In a snug pat eel, they were
deposited In some secret cave wheie
It would be Impossible for an enemy to
find them, and thus have tho chance of
bilnglng dishonor upon the dead
Two centuries ago the great chief
Kuallt was the mol or king over tho
Island of Oahu In the ninety yeais
of his life he fought with so many
chiefs on his own and the other Islands
that he was huiq that his enemies
would make great effoits to get pos
session of his bones and on them
wreak some of tho revenge which they
had not been able to take on him when
ullvc. To make suie that nothing of
this sort should happen, he laid strict
commands on his most faithful kahu
that ho should buiy his bones beyond
the reach of any maiauder who might
seek to dishonor them
As soon as the bieath had left the
body of the aged chieftain the kahu
hurtled his pieclous treasure away into
a secret place In the Oahu mountains
to fulfil his solemn promise. Return
ing, he sent Invitations to all the
nelghbois and tilbutary. chiefs to at
tend a feast In honor of the dead. From
all the lands of Oahu they gathered
and fiom surrounding islands, from
Molokal up the wind, and from Kauai
down the wind. AVhen the games had
been performed with all the ceremonies
with which tho Polynesians tuin tho
days of mourning Into a season of ic
Juicing, the feust was spread for the
chiefs and common people, After tho
lust food had been eaten and the cala
bashes were empty the chiefs asked
the kahu If ho had carried out the dy
ing wishes of his master. If tho bones
wmo burled vvhero theie wan no chance
I that they might be desecrated In any

which was waged against the dead as
well us thu living. With the assurance
that his duty had been faithfully per
formed tho kahu swept his hand In a
compiehenslve gestuie about the circle
of a hundred chiefs and said
"There nn- the giaves of Kualll, no
one can disturb his bones where they
rest."
He had not only cleaned the bones
of his nuistci, but he had beaten nnd
rubbed them Into a fine meal The
night before the feast he had secretly
visited the house In which were stored
the great calabashes of pol piovided
for the lefrcshment of the chiefs. Into
this pol he sttued the meal to which
the aged king had been reduced The
next morning the lemalns ot Kuallt
found their resting place In the bodies
of those who had gathcted to do him
honor, and were beyond the leach of
hostility and vendcttn. The chiefs
praised the Ingenuity of the kahu and
honored his fidelity. His story hns
been handed down as the type of the
devoted servant.
