SURGICAL OPERATIONS For the Cure of Piles and Rectal Diseases No Longer Necessary—A Medical Dis covery Which Will Change the Treatment of All Such Diseases. It has long been thought, not only by some physicians, but by people in general, that the common, painful and excedingly annoying trouble, piles, was practically in curable by any other means than a sur gical operation and this belief has been the cause of years of needless uffering, because of the natural dread of surgical operations. There are many salves, oinements and afford some relief in the case of piles, but the Pyramid Pile Cure is the only prepar ation so far introduced that can be reli aoly depended upon to cure to stay cured, every form of itching, bleeding or pro truding piles. Mrs. M. C. Hinkley, of 601 Mississippi street, Indianapolis, was told by her phy sician that nothing but a surgical opera tion. costing between seven and eight hundred dollars, could cure her, as she had suffered for 15 years; yet even in such a ease as hers the Pyramid Pile Cure ac complished a complete cure. She says: “I knew that an operation would be death to me and tried the Pyramid with very lititle hope and it is not to be wondered at that I am so enthusiastic in its praise.’’ Mr. D. E. Reed, of South Lyons, Mich., says: “I would not take SSOO and be placed back where I was before I used the Pyra- I mid Pile Cure. I suffered for years and ’ it is no ■■ eighteen men hs rince I used : it anti not the slightest trace of the trouble has returned.” The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by nearly all druggists at 50c and $1 a package and as it contains no opium, cocaine or other poisonous drugs can be used with perfect safety.

The Atlanta Woman's Club and the Rome Woman s Club have now been in ex istence more tiwa a year, and have proven that in feminine cluu work as in national affairs there is strength in union. Why should not the various clubs in tnis city unite in forming a Macon Woman's Club, so that the different organizations may be as mutual help to eacn other? At the last meeting of the Current Topics Club Mrs. E. J. Willingham in. her able and enthusiastic manner proposed that all the women's cluos in the city literary and philan-chropic should federate thus forming the Macon Woman's Club. Similar to the Atlanta aud Rome Woman's Clun. This suggestion met with the warm approval of the club, and all the various organizations in the city representing Woman's wit and woman’s work will be called to inaugurate this co-operative plan. The possibility of a club room as a meeting place for the verious seotioas of the club and for all general meetings of the City Federation was discussed with enthusiasm. It is hoped that music, French, and Art clubs will join the asso ciation, and that the Bread Winner’s Club which is slowly taking shape, will be an important element in the life of the Ma con Woman’s Club. In speaking of the gosd to be derived from uniting forces and making all clubs in the city parts of one organization, J cannot do better than to quote from Mrs. R. E. Park, a woman whom we all love and admire and who is both prominent in all that is best and greatest in club life for women, and whom w-e all admire for ner rare intelligence and culture, her no ble interest in the lives of others less for tunate than herself, and her personal grace and charm. Mrs. Park has this to say of the advisability of forming a Macon Woman’s Club: “The good that can be accomplished by centralizing the scattered influences of in telligence and philanthropy and combin ing the various factors which work for the uplifting of the community into one har monious unit, is incalculable. The co ordination of all these feminine forces means the evolution of ‘sweetness and light’ out of discord and darkness. Per haps the greatest benefit to be derived from a union of women’s clubs is the breadth of sympathy and liberality of view engendered by different classes com ing in contact with each other. The vari ous society cliques need to peep out of their oyster shells and see whigt the other mollusk’s are doing. There is nothing like contact with one’s fellows —one’s sisters — for rubbing off the angles of selfishness and prejudices. The spirit of the true club woman is altruistic. She longs to help the other wo man to better, brighter, higher things. She Strives to stir stagnant minds into healthy activity, to put purpose into pur poseless lives, to relieve the deadening moaotony of drudgery, to lighten the bur den of labor, to soothe the cry of the chil dren, and to help the world against the powers of darkness. Who can doubt the beneficence of a union that will bring women of every shade of opinion and of various castes aipl coteries and sects, Jew and Gentile, together on the eommgfi basis of sisterhood—daughters of the one—‘All Father.’ ’ The Breadwinners iCJub has for some time been a pet project of Mrs, Pack’s, and is a plan noble enough to deserve mention anywhere. Mrs. Park has enlisted the sympathy of Madame Younge, Miss Miller, Mrs. Nicholls, and other leading modistes, as well as Mrs. Ainsworth and others, and they all agree that much goad can be accomplished in this way. One idea of the union of breadwinners is this— if a sewing girl is ill there will be a sup ply from the general fund for her neces sities, and she will not ,be dependent on charity to obtain the money necessary for life and for medicine. Then when a girl working for her living, and as often hap pens, for the living of others, is thrown out of a position, the others will combine to secure a place for her, It Is hoped that teachers, typewriters, Woman’s Exchange, sales-women, sewing girls, milliners and factory women will meet on the common ground of the nobil ity of labor, while the Woman’s Club will be divided into different sections of mind labor and had labor. « » * Mr. and Mrs. John M.
