nnd then conclude the statement as follows
It Is not In evidence In this case , but It

clllo .tho II. d M. nnd the Fremont , Elkhorn

fact In connection with the show Ins mndu
by the other roids as to the Incre iso In
l > rolH In the thlit\-six-foot car over the
fchortor car may reconcile the apparent con-
lllct In the testimony between thn stock

an Increased co t for the ° nmo K'r\lce
iwhlla the other claims a loss , or nt li > ast no

10 per cent for thirty-six-foot car will give

Blx-foot ear has 20 per cent greater capacity
thnn n standard thirty-foot car , whereas
tinder the carload s > stem only 10 per conl

It InK long been thought not only by some
but by proplo In ge-noral that the
painful and exceedingly annojlng
trouble- , piles , wan practlvally Incurable by
any other means than a surgical operation
nnd this belief has been the cause of > cara
of ncodk'SH .suReilng , because of the natural
dread of surgical operations.
There are muny salves , ointments and
elnillar remedhtt on the market which afford
Eonio redlcf In casea of piles , but the I'jra-
mid PIle Cure Is the only preparation so far
Introduced that can bo reliably depended
upon to euro to stay cured , every form ol
