I ax - s I shippers last week expressed
worry over the dumping ‘of fourth
grade apples on eastern markets.

apples will reach 75 cents per box.

Many sufferers from Piles or Hem­
orrhoids have become di*s|s>ndent be­
cause they have lieen led to lielieve
that their case was hopeless and thnt
there was nothing In the world to
help them.
To these |M*oplc we say, ‘'Go to
your druggist and get an original box
of MOAVA SUPPOSITORIES.” One

tlie source of tin* trouble* and by

tion first allay tlie |>ain and soreness

nlcvrs and pile*« cause* them to heal
up and disappear forever.

steadily real st eel all known treat-
ments. marvelous reaiilts have been
obtained.
