In her petition her married life has been
anything but a happy one. While she and
her husband lled In the old country, she

seven years later sent for tha plaintiff,

Notice to Stock Holdera.
There will be a meeting ot the board ot
directors of the Blue Ribbon Mining and
Milling company held at Its office in Council
Bluffs, Iowa, Saturday, October 25, 1902.
From recent 'reports received from the

bon company In Colorado there Is good rea
son to believe the stock, which has been
selling for 35 cents per share, will be ad
vanced at this meeting to anywhere from
60 to 75 cents per share. Anyone contem
plating investing In the Blue Ribbon com
pany would do welt to subscribe for the
stock they contemplate purchasing prior to
the meeting ot directors to be held as above
stated. In this connection the Blue Ribbon
company has paid a dividend the first of
each month since the date of Its organisa
tion never less than 1 per cent, which divi
dends have been paid from the profits de
rived from the working ot this company's
properties In Colorado. Tha recent develop
ment Insured dividends for some time to
come, therefore the stock Is sure to be ad
vanced In price.

There Arc latcnt MoJIcina and
Remedies Without Number
For Every Dlicu and Affliction Bat
One.
A prominent physician was recently
asked why It was that there are so many
"blood purifiers," "nerve tonics" and
remedies tor every 111 except one ot the
most common and annoying, vis., piles.
He replied, there are (wo principal rea
sons. First, physicians and people in
general have thought that the only per
manent cure for plies was a surgical oper
ation; that medicinal preparations were
simply pallattve. Another reason is that
piles la la no sense of the word an imagi
nary disease; the sufferer from piles Is
very much aware ot the fact, and tor this
reason the few so-called pile aalves, oint
ments., etc., have been short-lived. Ths
patient very soon discovered their In
efficiency. He says further, fortunately, however,
there Is a new remedy for piles, which
Judging from Its rapidly growing popu
larity, will soon take the place of all othor
treatment; tt has certainly made astonish
ing cures In this obstinate disease and
Its merit haa mads tt famous among
physicians and wherever It has been In
troduced. This reemedy Is sold by all
druggists under the name of Pyramid
Pile Cure.
From the Immediate relief which the
Pyramid Pile Cure gives In all forms of
plies many physicians supposed It con
talned opium, cocaine or aome similar sub
stance, but upon analysis tt was found to
be perfectly free from anything of the
kind and that the instant relief and cure
which follows its use is rather the result
of Its remarkable healing, soothing action
on the parts affected.
The Pyramid Pile Cure Is the only rem
edy except a surgical operation which
Immediately relieves and permanently
