What are Res
Piles,or hemorrhoids,as theyare some-
times clled, are smaltmors, hich form
.in and about the orifice of the rectum.
They are caused by an enlarged and
inflamed condition of the veins, which are
very numerous in this part of the body.
As a ruloovery form of piles becomes at
times acutely inflamed, and extremely
painful. The itching and burning usually
increases at night, and the misery which
many people endure is beyond description.
There is no guesswork about Dr. Chase's
Ointment, as a cure for piles. It has
• been tried in the crucible of time, and
gradually won its way into fever with the
medical profession, as well as with the
public in general. It has a wonderful
soothing and healing effect, and wherever
applie(Yto burning, itching, inflamed skin
it affords almost instant relief, cooling the
. fifes of disease and healing the raw ulcer-
ous skin.
Ask your friends and neighbors about
151, Chase's Ointment. It is recognized
by at surprisingly large number of people
as the only actual cure for piles. It will
,not fail you. Sixty cents a box at all
dealers, or by mail postpaid on receipt of
:price, by Edmanson, I3atcs & Co., Toronto.
