This desirable point Is not obtained by the use of Injurious oplaNs which simply deaden and paralyo the nerves of the parts and make mutters worse In the long run. Hut It Is done solely by Its remarkable healing and soothing ct fects. And while It thus gives Immediate relief, at the same time the disease Is not merely checked, but a radical cure Is raDldlv acomnllshed.

The Pyramid Pile Cure has been before the public too long and It merits recog nized by too many people to allow it to be classed with the mauy salves, suppositories pills, etc., and you ruu no rltk In trying It as Is often the case with new and untried preparations.
