TOO OREAT EXPENSE
Not the Reason.
II Is not because Pyramid Pile Cure
Is so expensive that many people de
cline to give It a trial, but because they
find It too great a tax un their uiedullty
to believe that the published letters
bearing testimony to the merit of thin
remedy arc genuine and bona lldc; es
pecially to those who have realized the
suffering Incident to piles Is It Incred
ible that any one who has been nfltlctcd
twenty-live and thltty ycats with tho
worst form of protruding nnd bleeding
piles should bo cured by the applica
tion of a simple remedy, when their
phjslclan has assured them that the
only lcllef Is In a surgical operation.
This Is llghtfully viewed with dread by
all those atlllcted, as It means at hc
least a great shock to tho nervous sys
tem, with more than a possibility of
utter collupso und death; In the major
ity of cases, too, their Is a return of
the complaint, owing to tho fact that
the cause is not lemoved.
The ptoprlctors of Pyramid Pile
Cure agree to forfeit one thousand dol
lars to anyone who will show a single
published testimonial to be not genuine
and unsolicited; this lutter fenture Is
most grutlfylng, Inasmuch as these let
tots are wiltten solely out of gratitude,
and with the hope that those who are
nllllcted as the writers have been may
learn that lellef is at hand, at a com
paratively trilling expense. Pyramid
Pile Cute Is for sale by druggists at
fifty cents a package, or will be mulled
by the makers to any address upon re
ceipt of pi Ice.
Mr. Wm. Llchtenwalter, head of the
largest printing house in Canton, Ohio,
says: "It is with the utmost pleasure
and satisfaction that 1 can say I be
lieve I am cured of piotrutllng and
bleeding piles, after suffering more
than twenty-live years. I have been In
bed for two weeks at a time. I have
not suffered In the least for over a year,
and I used only three fifty-cent boxes
of Pyramid Pile Cure. I advise every
person suffeilng with this distressing
and painful complaint to give this rem
edy n trial. I have every confidence in
It." Write the Pyramid Drug Co.,
Marshall, Mich., for their book on the
causes and cuie of piles.

THE MARKETS
Wall Stmt Ittrltw.
New York, Sept. 29.-Tho stock market
opened weak this morning nnd, tho liquid
ation was continued In varying degrco
all day. During tho laBt hour of busi
ness bolntcd borrowers found tho supply
of ninllubto funds exhausted nnd they
inn tho money rulo tip quickly to .13 per
lent. Meantime thcio was n wholcalo
throwing over of stocks all uround the
loom nnd tho aspect of things was nipld
ly taking on an appearance of panic,
when tho picsldcut's guvol fell and tuid
Ing was ended for the day. Pi Ices were
still tumbling rapidly In all dlicctlons,
and tho one or two feverish rallies whero
the beats wciu sciamhllng to tnko quick
pioflts made no Impression on tho gen
eral demoralization of tho maikcts. Bomo
of tho ptlnclpal losses wcio Louisville,
11U; at, Paul, !K;V, Atchison, Oft: Illinois
CcntnJHi,; Ponnslviinla, ri',5; Baltimore
and Who, 574; Canadian Pacific, UJ
Northwestci n, u3i; General lliectilc and
Westlnghouso Elect! Ic, 8 each; Manhat
tan, Mi, und a long list of ptomlnciit
Btocks over 1 points. Losses up to I
points nro common thioughout tlio list.
Tho local banks were entltely out of
tho money maikot und tho trust com
panies weic veiy small lcndcis. Funds
of out of town hanks and of Individual
lenders made up the available supply. It
was very evident that thero was a largo
number of securities holders who hoped
that rates would work easier today, en
couraged to this view bv the notable le
cuperiitloii nchlcvcd by tlio banks last
week and the considerable margin of
surplus reserves revealed by Sntuiday's
bank statement,
This class held oft dining the enily
part of tho dnv from supplvins their
needs, hoping that they could matntatn
the serenity of the money mntket by le
frnlnlng fiom cnily demnnds upon It. Tno
call loan into was quiet up to noon nt
about 15 per cent. It (lurried dm lug tho
noon hour to 20 per cent, when the de
mand again became less urgent. The con
sequence was a wild scramble duilng the
final hour to secure loans nnd a general
sacilllce of holdings on tho pnit of those
who could not secure accommodation.
The events of tho latter part of last
week admonished the banking community
that there was a speculative element ab
solutely persisting In a determination to
place all the funds they could secure In
marginal holdings of stocks.
Further accommodations for this pur
pose was peremptorily refused bv the
banks. The effects of this dctcimlnation
developed nt the stock exchange before
the day closed. Tho liquidation com
menced In London befoio the opening
here and this had the effect of throwing
about 70 000 shares for wile on the local
market at the opening on aibltrugo ac
count. This was supposed to be on ac
count of a loading Ameiicun opeiator
now visiting in London. All of tho ro
ccntlv nctlve speculative pools and com
blnntions were nctlve in the liquidation
before the day closed. Total sales, 1,071,
"00 shares.
Tho bond market was weak but to a
much less degiec than stocks Total
sales, par value, J3.015.000. United States
bonds wcie all unchanged on tho last
cull,
