BLEEDING PILES.
And all other forms of thin common
and often dangerous disease readily
cured without pain or Inconvenience.
Thousands of men and women arc
mulcted with pome sort of Piles, with
out either knowing the exact nature of
tho trouble, or knowing It, uro care
less enough to allow It to run without
taking tho simple, means offered for u.
radical cure.
The failure of salves and ointments
to permanently cure piles has led many
to believe tho only euro to be a sur
gical operation.
Surgical operations are dangerous to
life nnd moreover not often entirely
successful and at this time arc no
longer used by the best physicians or
recommended by them.
The safest and surest way to euro
any case of piles, whether blind, bleed
ing or protruding. Is to use the Pyra
mid Pile cure, composed of healing
vegetable oils, and absolutely free from
mineral poisons and opiates. The fol
lowing letter from a Pittsburg gentle-
I man, u severe sufferer from uieeuing

effectual character of this pile cure,
He writes:
I tuko pleasure writing these few
lines to let you know that I did not
sleep for three months except for i
short time each night because of a bad
cuse of bleeding piles. I was down In
bed and the doctors did me no good. A
good brother told me of tho Pyramid
Pile Cure and I bought from my drug
gist three ilfty-cent bottles. They
cured me and 1 will soon be able to go
to my work again.
William Handschu,
1G St., Cotton Alley, below Butter St.,
Pittsburg, Pa.
Tho Pyramid Pile Cure Is not only
the safest nnd surest remedy for piles,
but Is the best known and most popu
lar. Every physician und druggist In
tho country Knows It and what It will
do.
Send to Pyramid Co., Marshall, Mich.,
for little book on cause and cure of
piles, describing all forms of piles and
the proper treatment.
Tho Pyramid can be found at alt
drug stores at 50 cents per package.
