OPERATIONS A FAD
Public Gradually Awakening to the
Fact.
The latest fad in operations has
been the appendicitis fad; before that
the fad for rectal operations (piles,
etc.), held sway. Hundreds of pa
tients were frightened and hurried in
to hospitads, operated upon and rob
bed of their last dollar, when the trou
ble was a simple case of hemorrhoids
or piles only, easily cured at home
with a simple remedy costing but fifty
cents a box.
'X procured one fifty cent box of
Pyramid Pile Cure of my druggist,
with the intention of buying a larger
box later, but was happily surprised
when I found that I was cured, and
still have six pyramids left out of the
first and only box. 1 have not had the
least sign of piles since I used this one
box, which has been about two
months; previous to using Pyramid
Pile Cure T had the worst kind of
bleeding and protruding piles for over
thirty-one years, and no one knows,
except those who have had the piles,
the pain and misery I suffered.
“I am a poor man, but have often
said I would give a fortune, if I had it,
to be cured of the piles, and now I
have been cured for fifty cents. I
should be very ungrateful if I did not
thank you and give you every privi
lege to use mv name and this letter,
when I know there are so many who
suffer as I did.”—J. A. Weismiller,
1100 Bladensburg Road, Washington,
D. C.
The Pyramid Drug Cos.. Marshall,
Mich., publish a little book on the
causes and cure of piles, which they
will be glad to mail free to any appli
cant, and we advise all sufferers from
this painful disease to write to them

HACKETT’S SON.
Aged Woman of Statesboro Seeks
the Governor to Proenre a Pardon
for Her Son Sent Ip for Murder.
Met a Little Atlanta Girl Who Un
dertook to Aid Her In Her Mission,
The Pair Are Promised All That
Can Re Done for the Son.
Atlanta. Oct. 24.—A dainty little
bright-eyed girl, attractively dressed,
entered the Governor’s office this morn
ing, accompanied by an aged woman,
dressed in plain homespun and faded
blue bonnet. The appearance of the
pair caused some wonder at first. The
little girl, Mabel Rainey, 12 years of
age, had met the old woman on the
train coming to Atlanta and learned
her story. She was Mrs. Adeline
Hackett of Statesboro, who had work
ed in the cotton fields until she could
get money enough to come to Atlanta
and present to the Governor a petition
for her boy’s pardon. The boy, Bud
Hackett; has served seven years of a
life sentence in the penitentiary for
murder.
The interest taken by the little girl,
who is a resident of Atlanta, touched
those who happened to be in the exec
utive office, and promises were given
that everything possible would be done
to secure the release of the aged wom
an’s son.

of Macon and well known as "Coach”
Betts. Brett’s wife was one of the
chief witnesses against Walline.
The quarrel between Walline and
Brett, which resulted in the latter’s
death, is said to have grown out of
the fact that Walline left his room
door open when he was in a half
dressed condition, and Mrs. Brett's
room being right across the hall, she
could not help seeing him. Brett re
monstrated with Walline, but the of
fense, It is said, was repeated. Final
ly the two men had a quarrel, which
resulted In Walline shooting Brett to
death.

sheet of flame, and rescued the little
one just in time. Her heroic art was
