Possibly you are a sufferer from piles, and have been disheartened and discouraged because your phy- sician has told you that nothing short of an operation will cure you. You dread the thought of a surgical operation, for, bestdes the expense and strain on the nervous sys- tem, there is tile risk to life itself. It is only a few months since a member of the Ontario Legislature lost his life as the insult of an operation for piles. The risk of an. operation is too great, and besides it is un- necessary. Dr. Chase's Ointment has frequently cured piles after surgical operations have failed. It is every day curing cases which physicians have stated to be incurable by any treatment short of ari operation. If you could read a few of the letters we receive' from persons wh.o have been cured of piles by usbig Dr. Chase's Ointment you would soon berconvineet1 of its wonderful control overv this frightfully common disease.
