There's no need for "taking up" this ni:itchic.-s ccnt

an opportunity is likely to occur again in the near future,
for in all our experience, wc arc free to confess that the
silk sale which opens today beats all records and surpasses
anything wc ever hoped to accomplish in the way of bargain-giving,
when nothing whatever is sacrificed for the
sake of price.

QUI0K AND SURE.
A Pile Remedy Which Really Cnros.
.11 r. u. if. couins, of Qarnctt, says:
"I commenced using tho Pyramid Pile
Cure at a time when my cuso was bad.
I thought nothing could cure it. but
beforo I had used n fifty cent pnekago
I began to feel much better, and now t
can honestly say 1 am entirely cured.
It Is tho quickest und surest remedy I
havo ewr tried or heard of."
From Thomon Wllllson, of Port Jcr
vls: "Just one packugo of the Pyra
mid Pilu Cure did wonders for me, and
1 lose no opportunity of recommending
such a remedy."
Amos Crocker, of Worcester: "After
having gono through an unsuccessful
surgical operation for plle nnd after
trying any number of salves and oint
ments without success, it is no wonder
Hint I can find words of praise for tho
Pyramid Pile Cure. One package did
mo more good than all the remedies I
had tried before. It Is so simple and
painless to uso that I felt no Incon
venience, whatever, while using It."
It has been thoroughly tested by
physicians In every state In the Union,
and the best authorities recognize It us
the safest, surest nnd cheapest pile
cure known.
The Pyramid Pile Cure cures every
form of piles, Itching, protruding or
bleeding, without a pnrtlcle of pain.
It cures without detention from dally
occupation, being in suppository form
nnd used at night.
Its effects are lasting and not merely
temporary relief.
More than all this, tho Pyramid Pile
Cure Is entirely harmless, containing
no opiate, narcotics or mineral poisons,
und cannot harm the most delicate.
Druggists everywhere sell it and rc
poit universal satisfaction wherever
used.
A little book on causes and cure of
piles will be mailed free by addressing

We command locally the sole output of the Reiling, David

from them are manufactured expressly for us stamped that way
in gilt on the edge of the Silk.

inquire into the Dress goods and other needfuls.
