FOR THE CURE OF PILES,
A Barbarous Surgical Operation is Inlensely
Painful.
Is not only intensely painful, dangerous
to life and very expensive, but in the
light of modern medical research and since
the discovery of the Pyramid Pile Cure a
surgical operation is wholly unnecessary.
If you have any doubt on the point kindly
read the following letters from the people
wito know that our claims regarding the
merits o ft'he Pyramid Pile Cure are borne
out by the facts.
From N. A. Stall, Ridge Road, Niagara
Co.. N. Y. :"F received your Pyramid Pile
Cure and tested it last night. It did me
more good than anything 1 have ever
found yet. and rtmember this was the re
mit or one night's treatment only.
From Penn W. Arnott. Batesville, Ark.:
Gentlemen- Your Pyramid Pile Cure has
done so much good in a short time that
my son-in-law, Capt. T. J. Klein, of Fort
Smith, Ark., has written me for your ad
dress, as he wishes to try it also.
From E. A. Townsend, Benville, Ind.:
I have been so much benefitted by the
Pyrramid Pile Cure that I enclose. $1 for
which please semi me a package, which i
Wish to give to a friend of mine who suff
ers so much from piles.
From John H. Wright, Clinton, DeWitt
Co.. HI.: 1 am so well pleased with the
Pyramid Pile Cure that I think it but
light to drop you a few lines to inform
you its effects have been all that I could
ask or wish for.
From P. A. Burton, Llano, Tex.: Gen
tlemen—The Pyramid Pile Cure has done
so much good for me that I will say for
the benefit of others that after using only
two days I am better than I have been for
months.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by
The Pyramid Drug Co., o (Marshall, Mich.,
and is truly a wonderful remedy for all
forms of piles. So great has been the
number of testimonial letters received by
them from all parts of the country that
they have decided to publish each week a
number ofsuch letters.
All druggists recommend the Pyramid
Pile Cure, as they know from what their
customers say that no remedy gives such
general satisfaction.

OLD OFFICERS '
RE-ELECTED
A Meeting of Macon Hospital
Association Yesterday
Afternoon,
MR. KING'S ADDRESS.
He Spoke Most Encouragingly of the
Work Done in the Past Year
Gresham Annex.
The annual meeting of the directors of
the Macon Hospital Association was held
at the Public Library yesterday afternoon
at 5 o’clock, and as was predicted in The
News yesterday afternoon, all of the old
officers were re-elected.
There was a good attendance at the
meeting and the election resulted as fol
lows :
President —C. T. King.
Vice President—William M. Johnston.
Secretary—F. F. Reese.
Treasurer—A. R. Tinsley.
Messrs. S. R. Jaques, Isaac Hardeman,
C. T. King, R. L. Burden and C. B. Wil
lingham were elected members of the
board to fill an unexpired term of two
years.
Members of the board elected to fill
the full term of 'three years were: R. E.
Park, J. M. Johnston, Joseph Dannenberg,
S. C. Hoge, T. J. C. Park, Wm. M. John
ston, F. F. Reese, A. R. Tinsley, W. B.
Hill, Henry Horne, J. A. Thomas.
Members of the board from the city
council are S. B. Price, W. T. Morgan, Sam
Mayer, C. D. Pearson, J. T. Moore.
The following committees were appoint
ed:
Finance Committee—S. R. Jaques, J. M.
Johnston, Isaac Hardeman, J. Dannenberg,
S. B. Price.
Building Committee—H. Horne, 9. C.
Hoge, R. F. Burden, C. B. Willingham.
Medical Board—William F. Holt, M. D.,
chairman: Henry McHatton, M. D.; Max
Jackson, M. D.; W. R. Winchester, M. D.;
K. P. Moore, M. D.; J. H. Shorter, M. D.
The visiting staff is composed of the
medical board, together with the following
physicians: R. B. .Barron, H. P. Derry.
Howard J. Williams, O. W. Weaver, Jas.
T. Ross, W. B. Gilmer, C. H. Peete.,
Superintendent and housephysician, W.
J. Little, M. D.
One of the most important questions be
fore the meeting was the offer of Mr. T. B.
Gresham to build an annex to the hospital
and it was decided 'to refer the matter to
the finance committee with full power to
act. All of the reports went to show that
the hospital was in as good condition as
could be expected.
President Campbell King made the fol
lowing address to the members present:
“To the Subscribers and Friends of the
Hospital: The meetings of the board of
directors have not been attended by all of
the members at any time daring the past
year, and absence from the city prevent
ed the regular meeting In August, but a
faithful quorum has given close attention
to details and the end of the bard year of
active work has been reached.
“The capacity of the hospital has been
overstrained in every department, and the
increasing demand for more accommoda
tions cannot long be resisted.
“The public generally has manifested a
most gratifying interest In the great 'be
nevolence by contributions of money, sur
gical instruments, bed and table linen and
other useful articles.
The proposition of Mr. Thomas B.
Gresham and Mrs. Minnie Machin to con
tribute a sum sufficient to erect a new
building capaible of satisfying present de
mands ('the terms of which offer have been
made public) I hope we may find available
at an early day. The importance of com
plying with the terms of this proposition
cannot be too strongly urged upon the at
tention of all who can contribute to its
consummation.
“The Ladies'’ Auxiliary has devoted
much valuable time towards raising money
for the hospital, and their practical enthu
siasm furnishes an inspiration to the men
that can only result in the success of this
undertaking.
“The carefully kept records of the hos
pital and reports of committees supply
these important details of hospital work:
“With an average of five patients per
week during the year 90 per cent of 'the
case were benefited and only
about one-third of them were able to pay
for service.
The increased appropriation from the
city has provided for the prompt payment
of bills and thus establishing for the hos
pital a good credit.
“The house physician, matron and train
ed nurses have rendered faithful and effi
cient service in keeping up the property
of the hospital and providing for the com
fort and relief of the sick.
“In completing the term of my presiden
cy Icordially thank the members of the
board for personaj courtesies and their
invaluable assistance in the administration
of the affairs of the Macon Hospital.’’
SIOO REWARD SIOO.
The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages, and that is catarrh. Hall’s
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upen the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the foun
dation of the disease and giving the pa
tient strength by building up the consti
tution and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much faith
in its curative powers that they offer SIOO
for any case that it fails to cure. Send for
list of testimonials.’ Address, F. J. CHE

Who understands her business beyond
question, having followed same for
ten years. Her operations are not

so gently that it is a pleasure and a com
fort to be treated by her. While we think
that our practitioners should qualify
themselves to doctor the feet as they do
other portions of the body, but as long as
they do nat, the suffering are obliged to
patronize those who make foot diseases a
