STIUKES THE SOURCE.
f
A Tile Cure Thai Goes to the Hoot of
the Disease.
There tire lots of lotions, oils and
salves that wilt, through I heir sooth
ing Influence, relievo temporarily ths
pain Incident to piles. Hut Is that all
the sufferer rctpilres'' Isn't It a hor
rible thought, to leallze Unit the case
Is only temporary and the disease noes
ctt .under the urfnce without a mo.
nielli's Interruption? Wouldn't It be
wiser to select, a remedy that seeks
the source and regulates those deep
seated disorders which Induce the. dis
ease? Pyramid Pile Cure not onlM
relieves (he pain nt once, but effects
a permanent cure of the worst form
of piles. You don't havo to go through
a tedious course of dieting while using
It. either, it strikes through thosn
delicate membranes and tissues and
sets the blood In healthful circula
tion, reducing at once the painful ln
llnnjiuutlon and ennjested tumors. This
remedy Is not n haphazard combina
tion of drugs, but Is a remedy In
vented by specialists who have treat
ed plies and blood dlsotdors success
fully for years. Manttfactuicd by the
Pyramid Drug Co. at Marshall, Mich.
Almost any first class druggist has
It on sole. Don't treat tills dlsenso
with every lotion and salve that comes
along, ltemembcr the parts affected
are the most delicate in the human
body. This remedy Is absolutely safe
and no one need fear to apply It free
ly on the most Inllumed parts. Tlm
speed wllh which It allays pain is an
agreeable surprise to the sufferer.
