Piles.
Piles are frequently preceded by a
sense of weight in the back, loins and
lower parts of the abdomen, causing
the patient to suppose he has some af-
fection of the kidneys or neighboring
organs. At times, symptoms of indi-
gestion are present, as flatulency, un-
easiness of the stomach, etc. A
moisture, like perspiration, producing
a very disagreeable itching, particu-
lary at night, after getting warm in
bed, is a very ■ common attendant.
Blind Bleeding and Itching Piles yield
at once to the application of Dr. Bos-
anko’s Pile Remedy, which acts directly
upon the parts affected, absorbing the
Tumors, allying the intense itching,
and effecting a permanent cure, where
all other remedies have failed? Do not
delay until the drain on the system pro-
duces permanent disability, but try it
and be cured. Price, 50 cents. Sent
prepaid on receipt of price. Address,

The Importance of Grammar.
Artemus Ward used to say, “Why
care for grammar if you’re only good?”
But it must be said, without casting
any imputations upon her goodness,
that Mrs. Ryan, of Philadelphia, at-
taches great importance to a grammati-
cal use of her native tongue, and it is
evident that she has brought up her
family to use the right words in the
right way. The other day she heard
some one open a window in the second
story of her dwelling, and, going to
the stairway, she asked who was there.
The answer came back: ‘ ‘It’s me,
mother.” Now, Mrs. Ryan knew that
no son of hers could be so ungram-
matical as to say “it’s me,” and she
ran out and called for help. The in-
truder, indeed, was not her son, but an
ungammatical sneak thief, who was
frightened away by the neighbors that
came to her relief. The incident, not-
withstanding Ward’s expressed prefer-
ence for goodness, shows the import-
ance of grammar. It is to be hoped
that the account of Mrs. Ryan’s ad-
venture will meet the eyes of members
of Congress.
