People who hae suffeted for months or yonts fiom tho pain and inconven ience of tliat common disorder, piles, will look with skepticism upon the claims of the makers of the new dis covery for a cur of all forms of piles, known under the nnmo of Pyramid l'lle Cure; nevertheless tho extraor dinary cures performed by this rem edy nio such as to warrant the inves tigation of any sufferer. As a case In point tho following letter speaks for itself. Mr. lleniy Thomas', ot sub-station No 3, llosnck avenue, Columbus, Ohio, writes as follows, l'yiamld Drug Co.: Oentlemon I want you to use my nuim If It will lio of anv use to you. I was so bad with piles that I lost work on that account. Nothing helped me r lead in Cincinnati of tho many cuies of illes by the Pyramid Pile Cute und I went to a ding store and asked for it. Thu drug clerk told me that he lmd something else that he thought was better, but I told him that 1 wanted to try the Pytamld Hist. The llrst box helped me so much that I tiled anothei, and then to com plete the mte used two more boxes, making four In all. I am now com pletely cuicd Have not a trace of piles and I had suffeted r four years with the wott kind of piotruding piles 1 suffeted death fiom piles, but I have found the Pyramid Pile Cure to be Jut ns represented. I have recom mended It to several ot my fi lends and am thankful to bo able to wiltu you what good the remedy has done me" Physicians recommend tho Pyramid l'lle Cure because It contains no opium, cocaine or mineial poison of any kind, .nd because It Is so safu and pleas ant to use, being painless and applied at nlglit The patient Is cured In a Miiprislngly short time and with no in conen!nue whatever The Pyramid l'lle Cure is sold by diugglsts at 50 cents per package, and if tlitiie Is an constipation It is well to use the l'vi.tmld Ms nt the same time with the l'lle Cute as constipa tion Is ciy often the cause of pile, nnd the pills effectually remove tho costive condition.

In the Flt-t wuid the ticket nominated at the Republican rally will have no opposition and it Is thereto! o probable the vote cast will be light. In the Second ward the Republican ticket will have 110 opposition, with tho exception of constable. The leg ularly nominated candidate tot that ollice, David Gaines, will be opposed by John Ju. In the other watd there aie two tickets in the Held, the Dem ocratic and Cltlens.

P.. Nicholson, a well known Republican, promises to be a very close 1 ontest. The latter will probably get the votes of most of thu Democrats on the West Side, and with the Solid Republican vote he stands a good chance of defeating Ploomer. Tho contest for constable in tho Third watd between James Hosio and Mlihuel Me Hale, will also be spirited. The only borough ollice to be filled Is that ot Justice of the peau. W. C. Swlck is tho regular Republican candidate, und his friends think there is not the slightest doubt regnidlns his election. Alfied T.

One of the Lending Ministers of Now York Speaks Out Openly. "What Is HUlcldo? It is the tnklntr of one's life. Whether this Is done in stantly or through a long course of years mutters not. In cither case it Is suicide. "Thu man who allows the strultm and cares of life, overwork, ambition or dissipation to undermine nnd short en lils life Is committing suicide is nctually ns the man who sends a bul let into his binln. "Tlie vvoinnn who permits the enrcs of her family, her social ambition, her disregard of the laws of heulth to weak en her, cause her to fade, bring about early old ago nnd untimely death, Ih committing suicide ns surely as the 0110 who takes an overdose of laudanum" The above ternaries were made in substance by one of the most promin ent pi cachets ot New York City dur ing the ptesent week. He Is a man known to everybody, nnd his remarks as above stated are true.

She said: "In her school life she soon became a favotlte w I tli both teacher and schoolmates She was always a leader in all class-f-s and societies to which she belonged She was valedictorian of her class at Evanstou college, where she af let warn accepted the position as dean. She hpoke of her wonderful hiagnettsm a a teacher and described It as only tin Christ spit It within her. A clergyman who had formeily been a pupil of JIIss Willard said she made the cluss roon, seem like a flower bed After resign ing her position as dean she went abroad and visited nearly every ap itol in Europe, and went to the Holy Land She met in England Lady Henry Somerset, her life-long friend, and who is now JIIss AVlllard's suc cessor as ptesldent of the AVorld's AVu men's Christian Tenipetance union. Soon after her tetuin fiom abroad came the turning point In liei 111' when she accepted the position as president of tho local AVontan's Cbtls- tlan Temperance union In Chit ago. In 18S3 she foundetl and became president of tho AA'orld's Woman's Chtlstlan Temperance union. Jilts AVlllaid was about 34 years ot age when she entered this work, and trom then until hoi denth she bent all her energies towaid this gieat object, "Woman's suffet ago and home piotectlon." She spoke of Jliss AA'illard as one of the most wonderful of women. She led one ot the purest, tiuest, noblest lives Hint woman ever lived. One of the best thlng3 about -diss AVlllaid was she never spoke Hi ot any one. Just one year ngo today at the Empire hotel In New York city Frances AA'illard passed from earth to Heaven. "How beautiful to be with God," were the last words from tlie voice which had thrilled thousands with its marvelous sweetness and power. It was in the evening that she went to her Father's home, leaving a nation, a wot Id tor rowing. Yet why should wo sorrow? Frances AVlllaid can never die. "To live In tho hearts of the people is not to die." At this point tlie Waveily AVotnan's Chrlstlun Temperance union presented the school with a picture of JIIss AVll laid. The piesentatlon was made by JIIss C.teene. She said tho object of the union In bilnglng tho programme before you was to interest our young people In this gieat woik, and In coin ing beforo you as n union wo might interest you In our work, and In the study and rendering of this pio grammo It might Instil in your minds new ideas of temperance, and purity. Her motto in general was "For God and homo and evety land" "Our badgo is tho simple knot of white rib bon " Not only did she wlbh to keep Iter natlvo land but this whole-souled woman wus only satisfied when it saltl "every land." The beauty of her noble llfo so shines In her face, the picture can but be beautiful, but not only for its beauty do we present it to you today, but that It may speuk to you of the life or a noble woman Professor F Hanyen, In behalf nf tlie teachers, pupils and school board, uccepted It In a few well chosen words. pniCEDURO. g s Tho breaker boyn of tho Jnlmeon Coal company went for a flelgh rldo to Atch bald last evenlnsr Savvkee tribe.
