Haydn Evans, who played "The March
of the Men of Harlech" with fine effect.
The rendition was a treat, ns It Is very

CURES WITHOUT PAIN.
One of the Best features of the New
Pile Curo.
The Pyramid Tile Cure cures all
forms of piles without one pnrtlclo
of pain. This dcslrablo point Is not ob
tained by tho use of Injurious opiates
which simply deaden and paralyze tho
nerves of the parts and make matters
worse In tho long run. But It Is done
solely by Its remarkable healing and
soothing effects.
And while It thus gives Immediate
relief, at tho same tlmo the disease Is
not merely checked, but a radical cure
Is rapidly accomplished.
And the point we want to make clenr
Is that all this la done without a par
ticle of pain.
This fact Is one great reason for tho
popularity of tho Pyramid Pile Cure
and constitutes one very great differ
ence between It and almost any other
kind of treatment for piles.
Every kind of surgical operation for
piles Is excruciatingly painful besides
endangering the life of the patient and
In most cases la not to be compared
with the Pyramid Cure, neither In
making successful cures without pain
nor In cheapness nnd safety.
The Pyramid Pile Curo has been be
fore tho public so long, and Its merits
recognized by too many people to allow
It to be classed with the many salves,
suppositories, pills, etc., and you run
no risk In trying It, as Is often the
case with untried preparations.
If you are ever troubled with any
form of piles or rectnl disease do not
forget the Pyramid Pile Curo. Pre
pared by the Pyramid Drug Co., of
Marshall, Mich,, and sold by druggists
nt CO cents per package.

Warner's Safe Cure the Victor Among
Modern Medicines.
It was once believed that a finger ring made from a coilln-natl would curo
epilepsy. The tooth of a soldier who had been killed In bnttle was regarded
as n remedy for toothaches. Imagine such ghastly nonsenso as this parad
ing ns medical sclencol Yet the human mind, like tho human body, must
creep beforo It can walk. In time men learned to reason nnd medicine wa4
put upon a rational basis. Back In the old days, some childish or disgusting
mess would have been used to relievo Indigestion. Mark the progress Illus
trated In this letter from J. E Stockwcll, of Lincoln, Neb.
"I havo been badly affected with trouble of tho stomach and have used
nearly nil kinds of medicines and doctored with local physicians to no avail
After being almost completely discouraged, I was advised to use Warner'i
Safe Cure, which I did, and I am glad to be able to say that It Is the only
remedy that has done me any good. I have used three bottles nnd am feel
ing like a new man all over. I am thankful to the Warner's Safe Curo Co.
for their medicine, and can rccommond It cheerfully to those suffering ns I
have suffered."
Another Instance of the victory of rational medicine Is afforded by Jacob
Cramp, of BIrdsboro, Berks County, Pa., who wrote, May 10, 1898:
"I have taken live bottles of Warner's Safe Cure. It relieved me of tho
pain over my kidneys. When I got down I could hardly get up again. I did
not know what was wrong with me. I could hardly do my work. I heard
of Safe Cure and thought I would try It. After taking one bottle I felt
better. I am very grateful for Warner's Safe Cure and would advise people
to try It."
Just one case more, Averett Perry, of Loulsburg, N. C, says:
"I have taken only one bottle of Wnrner's Safe Cure and It has done me
more good than anything else I ever took. I had an aching feeling In the
pit of my stomach. I want to thank you from the bottom of my henrt. I
can recommend Safe Cure as the finest medicine In the world."
Does tho clear and energetic language of tliene men leave any doubt of
their sincerity? The stomach derangement spoken of Is commonly associated
with tho approach of Brlght's disease. No painted Indian ever crept to a
settler's cnbln more stealthily than Brlght's disease Invades the body. A dull
white skin, tendency to perspire, Indigestion and short breath gives warning
of the enemy.
Lose neither time nor courage. Take Warner's Safe Cure regularly, and
bear In mind that It has a record of twenty glorious years. It cures all ail
ments of tho kidneys, liver and bladder. Including oven the terrible disease
named for Dr. Bright. Tho road to health Is open, If only you read the sign
board aright.
