They don't secin to amount to much, but they banish sleep and appetite. No position Is comfortable. There in lntenso local pain and that dreadful feeling of weight In the perineum. Maybe In the early wtages Homo of the many salves on sale will afford temporary i oiler. If the case Is of long standing, there Is only one speedy and sure remedy. It Is Pyramid Pile Cuio.
