ONE OF THE EEST FEATURES
Of the ! rnmld Pile Cure
Is thu fact that It cures every form of Piles
without ono particle of pain. 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. And the nolnt we
want to make clear Is that all this Is done
without a parttclo of pain.
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. If you are ever troubled with
any form of piles or rectal disease, do not
forget the Pyramid Pile Cure. Prepared by
Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall, Mich., and
sold by all druggists at 50 cents per pack
age.

for this office. Captains Mooro and Talbott
each received twenty-eight, and thero ap
pears to bo sorao ground for believing that
tho second election, which will bo held
next week, will show no change.
An officer of the guard who was In the
city today, said: "Tho race for the lieu
tenant colonelcy Is between Captains Moore
and Talbott, nrfd so far as anyone has
been nblo to find out the conditions are
utout the same as they were before the
last elcctldn. All of the officers seem to
bo standing for their original choice and
unless somebody falls to vote tho result
may be the same us at tho first election
n tic."

Prout and C. O. Whedon, nt the request of
several Lincoln taxpayers, began quo war
ranto proceedings In tho supremo court,
attacking the recently created office.
Attorney General Prout ald this after

virtue of his position us attorney general
and was Ignorant of tho questions at Issue
In the controversy, Ho agreed to sign the
petition, but with tho understanding that
other uttornuys should take responsibility
for tho prosecution of tho case.
"1 do not know upon what arguments they
rely," said he. "I understand that the
objections oro based oti the'fuct that thj
now city charter provides for a city and
county tux rate, whllo the constitution
promises u uniform rate of taxation. Local
parties are Interested In the case and will
furnish their own' legal talent."
The action Is beguu In the Interests of
soveral heavy taxpayers ond It is asserted

DERL1N. April 20. It Is still the wish
of the emperor that tho Diet pass the canal
bill. This wish Is not likely to be fulfilled,
as tho conservatives nnd the agrarians still
vigorously oppose It. Tho emperor and
Count von Buclow seem, however, to have
made up their minds to stand this shilly
shallying no longer and Internal political
changes will surely arise from this atti
tude. From Prlnco Herbert Bismarck's
speeches this week It la generally supposed
that he Is preparing to play the role of
chief in tho anti-government fronde.
Tho canal bill commlttco Is holding dally
sessions, but makes no progress. The
members of tho committee pass the time
Joking, and a few days ago they spent
three hours after tho government commis
sioner had mentioned tho name of Andrew
Carnegie in discussing tho. correct way to
pronounco tho name, whether it should be
accented on tho first, second or third syl
lable. The Nicaragua canal haB been discussed
by thp German press this week, which Is
of tho opinion that neither Great Britain
nor Germany can tolerate the. control of
tho canal by tho United States.
