No discovery Of recent years in the field Of
medicine has caused such a stir amongst the
medical profession as the recent discovery that
piles can be successfully treated and cured at
home by wonderful prescription known to
druggists as Miro Pile Remedy.
II has been proved that so-called external
remedies applied or inserted into the rectum
cannot cure piles and at the best only give
temporary relief This Is also true Of surgical
operations, which simply remove them after

Of the trouble.

SOLDIER RETURNS,
 HIS MIND IN DAZE,
 FINDS MOTHER DEAD

Bethel, June 10-A new phase of one of the saddest tragedies that oc- cured in Connecticut during the war developed here yesterday when Pri- vate Henry Bromley, of the 327th In fantry, officially reported dead on October 16, 1918, returned to his home here. When the official tele- gram informing Private Bromley's family that he had been killed in ac- ton in France was delivered at the Bromley home last October, the sol dier's mother, Mrs. Henry Bromley, ST, was attending a theatre. She was handed the message upon her return and after reading it, stepped into an adjoining room and drank poison. The boy was her only son, and she had been under a severe nervous strain through her anxiety in regard to his safety.
 Private Bromley is apparently suf- fering either from the shock caused by the news of his mothers death or from an injury received in war, and has been unable to tell of his eXperi- ences. He arrived in this country from France in February and learned about his mothers death soon after
 
 in New York several weeks, and sub sequeutly went ID Stamford. but for some reason he is unable to explain, did not return home. He arrived in Bethel Saturday. apparently dazed. He denied his identity when recognized by acquaintances on the streets here and said his name was 'Reddy," but his father completed the identifca- tton yesterday. It is probable that some other soldier was identified and buried as Bromley. Private Bromley speaks vaguely of having been con fined in a German prison and 1t is probable that some other soldier was identified and buried under his name. Some of his comrades who returned from France recently reported that they had visited a grave in France upon which was marker bearing his name.

WILL NOT TRAIL WILSON
Anti-League Senator'S Suddenly Give

President

Republican Senators have given VI
the plan Of sending speakers to trai

ments in behalf Of the peace treaty
and the league of nations, it, is learn
ed.
Originally it was planned to dis
patch three or four Senators who
would present opposition argument:
in the same territory that the Presi-
dent will visit. 1t was decided sucil
action would be unwise and politically
;rexpedient.
The President has declined &c
furnish the senate Foreign Relations
Committee with information concern
ing treaties being negotiated with
Austria, Turkey, Hungary and Bui-
garia. This was learned when let
tsrS exchanged between President
Wilson and Senator Lodge were made
public by the latter.
The President indicates that he
regards the request as an attempt"
interference with Executive prero
gatfvcs.
cit would tend to take the function
of negotiating treaties out of the
hands of the Executive, where it IS
expressly vested by the Constitution"
says the President.
Lodge, in reply, diselaimed any such
intention, and limited the Presidents
refusal might delay che treaty with
Germany.
The President also declined to give
to the committee an official copy =
the declaration of June 16 regarding
payment by Germany of the expens'
of allied armies occupying the Rhine,
district, on the grounds that it might
prove embarrassing to the allied gov
crrments.
Ledge replied it had been obtained
from the British White Book, ar
that he only requested it in order
that it might be before the commit
tee officially.
