Thousands of men and women suffer from some form of piles without either knowing the exact nature of the trouble, or knowing it, carele&sly aliuw it to run without using the simple means cf a radical cure. The failure of sajves and ointment to sure piles has led many sufferers to be lieve the only permanent cure to but a surgical operation, but surgical opera tions are dangerous to life and more over very expensive and by no means always or even often successful. The safest and surest way to cure any case of piles whether itching, pro truding or bleeding ia to us the Pyra mid Pile Cure, composed of heaiing vegetable oils and absolutely free from mineral poison and opiates. Mr. Wm. Handscnu of Pittsburg. Pa., after suffering severely from bleeding piles wrires as follows: "I take pleasure writing these few lines to let you know that I did not sleep for three months except for a short time each night because of a bad case of bleeding piles. I was down in bed and doctors did me no good. "A good brother told me of Pyramid Pile Cure and 1 bought from my drug gist three fifty cent boxes. They com pletely cured me and I will soon be able to go to my work again." The Pyramid Pile Cure is not only the safest and surest pile remedy, but it is by far" the widest known and most popular, because so many thousands have tried it and found it exactly as represented. Kveiy physician and druggist in the country knows the Pyramid Pile Cure and what it will do. S--nd to Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall. Mich., for little book on Cause and Cure of Piles, mailed free to any address, or better yet get a fifty cent box of the remedy itself at the nearest drug store and try it tonight. I V '' . .
