PILES
TREATED SUCCESSFULLY
Without the Knife
PILES TREATED SUCCESSFULLY WITHOUT SURGICAL
OPERATION
No man can be at his best when suffering the tortures of
the man who has rectal troubles.
No man can succeed who suffers. You must be feeling fit
yourself if you hope to convince other men.
No man should waste his time trying to work or conduct
his business while suffering; and it is not necessary that he
should.
Modern science has developed a system of treatment by
which all rectal diseases are cured without the use of the knife,
or the patient being required to stop work.
If you are afflicted with any form of rectal troubles, and
want to get well by the mildest, safest and at the same time
surest method, call at my office, get acquainted. Consultation
and Examination Free.

Be Sure You're Right, Then Go Ahead
That's a splendid rule to observe when you go to
purchase a piano. We ask your patronage on the basis
that we can give you more value for your money than
you can secure elsewhere in this territory.
Here are some of the reasons:
FIRST—"We purchase in larger quantities for spot
cash."
SECOND—"We do not pay commissions."
THIRD—"We carry our own paper."
FOURTH—"We do not peddle pianos here and
there."
FIFTH—"We sell more pianos than any dealer in
the middle west," which enables us to secure the choice.
All we ask is that you investigate—see for yourself—
ask any bank or business house. Ours is the only one-
price, no-commission music house in Enid. We cordial-
ly invite you to call and see our immense stock. If you
cannot call, write.
