THE STRENUOUS LIFE
A Great Strain.
No one disputes the fact that we arc
living In a "rapid" ugc; It Is rush, rush,
rush from morning until night, and
competition Is so tierce that the strug
gle docs not cc'asc until the machine Is
worn out. Women, too, even when sur
rounded by every comfort, become In
fected by the common spirit, and what
with their clubs and many social du
ties, have no tlmo to give thought to
their physical well-being, until they
nre suddenly brought to a sharp real
ization of the fact that nothing In their
lives Is so important ns attention to
correct, or rational living. It may
surprise the readers to learn that wo
men arc more prone to piles than men,
and In most cases, becauso It Is dllll-
cult to Impress upon them the Import
ance of regular movements of the bow
els; Irregularity menus straining at
stool, and straining means piles, with
the certainty (under the usual meth
ods of treatment) that the sufferer will
"have them nlway with her;" by "us
ual methods" Is meant the application
of salves nnd lotions, or (as a last re
sort) a surgical operation. If there Is
a complaint which entails more dis
tress and suffering upon those afflicted,
than piles, or hemorrhoids, It Is not
known to the writer; fortunately, how
ever, these are learning that there Is
a remedy that effectually cures all
forms of piles; It Is known as the Pyra
mid rile Cure, Is In suppository form,
Is applied directly to the parts, and
docs Its work quickly and painlessly;
It Is sold by druggists for fifty cents a
package, or will be mailed by the
mukers to any address upon receipt
of price. Mrs. John H. Castona, 2942
Arch street, Chicago, says: "I must
write you that I was cured of a very
aggravating case of Itching and bleed
ing piles by the use of the great rem
edy Pyramid Pile cure, even after sev
eral physicians had claimed there was
no cure except by an operation. I am
well now, and owe all to this valuable
remedy. I cannot say enough for It."
Write' the Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall,
Mich., for their little book on the
cause and cure of piles.

POLL TAX PROJECT.
Some Questions as to the Legality of
Tax on Occupations.
Tho project of levying and collecting
i poll tax this coming year Instead of
un occupation tax is being once more
revived by several of the councllmen.
The "Ripper" bill contains a clause
giving. councils the right to levy and
collect a poll tax not exceeding $1 per
year from every male Inhabitant of the
city over twenty-one years of age. As
has been pointed out before the amount
to be realized next year from the tax
on occupations because of tho reduc
tion of tho tax levy will be only about
$5,000. An amount hardly worth the
trouble required to collect It.
A poll tax of $1 would bring In be
tween $20,000 and $25,000 per year. An
effort was made In 1901 to levy such a
tax but the plan was defeated In coun
cils, the objection being raised that It
was unfair to tax the rich man precisely
the same as the poor man. The counter
argument was that while the rich man
paid taxes on real estate, the poor man
as a rule, paid little and that the tax
was therefore not so unjust.
There are some who contend that the
city has no legal right at the present
time to collect an occupation tax be
cause of a section of an act of 187S ap
plicable to cities of the second class
and reading as follows:
"The taxes heretofore levied on
trades, professions and occupations for
any purpose, excepting a tax upon busi
ness, In cities of the second class, be
and they are hereby abolished, and In
lieu therof a stated tax of one dollar
upon each resident taxable is authorized
to be levied and collected."
To visit the soldiers' camp nt Oly
phant, take the Throop or Carbondalo
car; both are convenient to the camp.
PATROLMAN SUSPENDED.
Policeman Webber Talked Back
to
Superintendent Day.
Patrolman Charles Webber got into
an argument with Superintendent of
Police Day yesterday, in the course of
which ho used language which he
should not have used to his superior
officer.
Superintendent Day promptly sus
pended lilni from duty pending a report
of the 'matter to Director of Public
Safety F. D. Wormser. The latter
heard both sides of the case and con
firmed the superintendent's suspension
order, making it for three days.
"The matter Is not serious," said he,
yesterday. "Patrolman Webber didn't
swear, but he used language that It
was not proper for him to use. Ho
has been suspended in the interests of
discipline."
To visit the Boldlers' camp at Oiy
phant, take the Throop or Carbondulo
car; both are convenient to the cump.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Rerlew.
New York, Sept. 2.7. Tho slpck market
rclloctcd decided relief from tho process
of "putting tho screws on" speculative
borrowers which has boon In effect this
week. Money rates still ruled high, run-'
nlng up to 22 nor cent, before midday.
,1'rlccs ran off at that 'time to u level be
tween 1 and 2 joints under last night, but
the money rule then relaxed and prices
started u slow recovery. It was apparent
that no very plentiful supply of funds
was available to speculative borrowers
for use in tchuylng of stocks, but tho ac
tual loan contraction and consequent
forced liquidation was much lighter. It
was reported also that payments on ac
count of tho United States Realty merger
amounting to over $10,000,000 was ro-loanod
In tho stock market and helped to break
tho money rate. Tho general understand
ing that the secretary of the treasury
was to make a statement and offer somo
additional relief was an argument for the
recovery. Thero was a momentnry set
back utter tho publication of tho state
ment, but prices hardened again nnd tho
market closed linn, but below tho best.
Not gains are the rule. Total sales for
tho day, 800,100 shares.
