80 PER CENT OF THE ADULT pop
ULATION SUFFER FROM ONE
PAINFUL AILMENT.

Think what this means. Imagine the
amount of misery that exists and is endured
simply because people do not know there is
m absolute cure.
The only way to cure any complaint is to
remove the cause. There are very few dis
eases or ailments that can be cured by ex-
ternal application and piles is not one of
them. Piles can be cured; the treatment
must, however, be internal, for the cause of
piles b an internal disorder of the liver or
the bowels. Even catarrh of the stomach
and bowels can be cured by DR.. PERKINS,
PILE specific, The Internal Remedy.
Here is an instance of what this practically
tnfallible remedy will do:

Clans would have pronounced incurable, as |

resort to bandages and absorbent cotton to

HERO WITH SEVERED
ARM SAVES LIVES
Fireman Rescues Two Children
From Third Story of Burn
Ing Tenement

NEW YORK, Sept PA hero whose
life may be the. price of his bravery, was
developed at a fire yesterday, when scores
of men, women and children were dragged
from flame licked fire escapes and smoke
filed rooms of big tenement at 100
Broome street.
Although many courageous deeds were
done by the firemen, that of Joseph En-
giles, of Engine Company No. II, stands
out
With his arm almost severed from his
shoulder by big pane of glass through
which he broke Engles caught the children
with his sound arm, and, step by step,
went down ladder to the street, where
he fell in a swoon
Engles was taken to drug store, blood
squirting from his shoulder, to which his
arm hung by few shreds. "A call was
sent to Gouverneur hospital, but it was
thought inadvisa BILE to wait for an am
bulance. After ropes had been tied Sc
curely around the wounded shoulder the
unconscious fireman was hurried to the
hospital as fast as the chiefs wagon could
go. He will die, it is said.
Every Family Cut Off
Before any of the many tenants knew
a fire had started the flames had taken
possession of the ground floor and stair
case. Every family in the house was cut
dows and fire escapes, where they shrieked
and waved their arms. In the frantic
scramble women and children were knock
ed down and injured
The unchecked flames roared up the
narrow staircase, and one after another
the second, third and fourth floors were
set on fire. On the ladders leading from
the fire escapes to the street more than
fifty persons were jarnmed tightly, unable
to. move. Before the engines arrived po-
i1cemen from the Eldridge street station
had begun untangling the panic-stricken
tenants
Not one of the fleeing householders paid
the slightest attention to the warning
yells of firemen and police, but continued
fighting, kicking and screaming. Broken
glass showered upon them, and numerous
cuts were thus received.
Bravery imperlIs His Life
Engles was one Of the. first to ascend
the ladders. He rushed to the third floor
and made for two little children who were
crying at a window. He pushed himself
bodily through the sash, but his foot
| slipped and the sharp pane was wedged
in his armpit. When he fell the glass
cut clean through his shoulder He lifted
himself up, took firm stand on a ladder

their waists and slowly descended His
comrades did not know he had been In

BABIES SLAIN FOR
INSURANCE MONEY
English Parents Have Brought
Reproach on Nation-infants
Killed by Coarse Foods


LONDON, Sept 25.-A plan of cam
paign against child insurance which will
free England from the reproach that little
ones are done to death daily for the sake
of the money for which they are insured
is being formulated
Thirteen years ago, when a select COM
mittee of the house of lords inquired into
the matter, a mass of evidence was pro-
duced to- show that child insurance was
simply premium on child murder.
In a Scotch town where local burial
society discontinued insuripg the lives of
children under one year of age. infant
mortality dropped in twelve months from
156 to 100 per 1000.
Premium on Child Murder
Several insurance companies opened
branches in the town. and the death rate
for infants rose to 1856 per 1,000
Writing in yesterdays Express, Mr.
Seldom, premier of New Zealand, recon-
mended that no child should be insured
for more than e5 until it reached ten
years of age.
Mr.. Seddon's proposal would affect
children between the ages of six and ten
chiefly said the official of the Prudential
Assurance company, who deals with child
policies. to your correspondent yesterday.
AT present it is illegal for child under
five years of age to be insured for more
than Sc, or a child under ten for more
than 6 10.

TRY TO RAISE DEAD
BY VACCINATIONS
Insane Woman and Hypnotized
Companion Central Figures
in Tale of Horror

PARIS, Sept. PA great sensation
has been created in Versailles and the
surrounding country by story of hor-
ror worthy of Edgar Allan Poe, and in
which the central figure lis certain
Nine. Christmann, well known in the
locality as a professional hypnotist and
masseuse.
She had for some months past exer-
cfsed great personal influence over a
wealthy widow named Fleury, who is
stated to have paid her a considerable
sum of money, in return for which she
promised to cure her of an illness.
Nine. Fleury paid her daily visits
for month, and subsequently was
prevailed upon to convey her daugh-
ter, who was suffering from an incura-
bic disease, to the place for treatment
by magnetic hypnotism.
Praying Over the Body
AS the two women failed to return
home, the police entered the house of
the masseuse. In a room which was
draped ir purple velvet and ornament
ed with golden stars and moons, with
grotesque masks grinning fretn every
corner. they found Nine. Fleury say
ing her prayers.
Near her. extended on a couch COW
cred with roses and other flowers, by
the side of which burned two immense
wax candles in silver candlesticks, lay
the body, almost emaciated to a skele-
ton, of her daughter.
The masseuse declared that the girl
was not dead. but was in a state of
transition while undergoing the process
or renovation of which she herself had
the secret.
Nine. Fleury, who showed symptoms
of having been hypnotized, repeated
the masseuse's story, and declared her
firm determination to remain watching
until her daughters body should be
completely restored.
Dead Twenty Days
When the doctors were summoned
they declared that the young woman
had been dead for more than twenty
days, but that decomposition had beer
delayed owing to the body having been
treated with a strong chemical solu-
ton.
Nine. Fleury was with difficulty per-
suaded to believe that her daughter
was dead When at length she die

movement, and quickly taking a silk
handkerchief from her pocket, attempt

She was prevented from doing so by
the doctors and conveyed home

Working Class Heavy. Insurers
A statistician of the company estimates
the number of children of the working
class who are insured at 1000, 000 which
is four ffths of the whole child popula-
ton of that class.
Mr.. Seddon's proposal is good in SO far
as it would lessen the inducement to
hurry a child out of the world for the
sake of the insurance money" was the
opinion expressed by one of the principal
officials of the National Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Children, who
stated that the amount of the policies on
the lives of children in cases investigated
by the society in fourteen years was more
than G1.000, 600.
Killed With Improper Food

insurance money in large number of
cases. 1t is very easily DONE Give a
child of three months bacon. potatoes

kind are most difficult to prove The
mother states that the child has been
given what the rest of the family had.

nal, she replies quite truly that all her
neighbors do the same.

Small though the policy may seem, 1t is

Reform Is Aimed At
Among the reforms suggested in the
forthcoming campaign are following:
1. That it should be made a penal Of
Tense on the part of the agent. the pro-
poser, and the company knowingly tc

g. That the inducement to do away
with a child should be 1essened by the
general adoption of a system of graduated
policies.
g. That a penalty should be imposed
on non-relatives who insure child's life
