BURNS LIGHT FOR
SLAIN DAUGHTER
Mothers Health Breaks I'm
der Long Vigil.

New York.-The light that has glim-
hered for nearly five years in memory
Of Florence Kane, who was murdered
In 1925, will soon be extinguished, for
the Kane home in Brooklyn Is to be
sold.
For 1915 nights, now, Mrs. Lydia
Kane has seen to 1t that the candle
burned for her dead daughter. At
dusk every day Mrs. Kane walks up
short flight of stairs to the second
floor Of the pretty frame cottage and
lights the beacon, as she calls 1t. She
has sworn to keep it burning in the
girls room each night until the slayer
Is captured and punished.
But the police have never succeeded
In penetrating the mystery Of the
death of Florence Kane.
FIve-Year Mystery.
The murderer has never been appre-
hended and no new clews have been
unearthed in nearly five years.
The long strain Of waiting has told
on Mother Kane. Day in and day out
she sits by the window. And at night
she ascends to Florence's room and
lights the candle. In snow and in
cold, in heat and in rain, she waits
for news and prays and cries.
Relatives say her health has broken
down, and upon advice of physicians
have decided to sell the house and
take Mother Kane away from the
many reminders Of the tragedy.
On the morning Of May 20, 1925, a
milkman, passing through East New
York avenue on his route, found the
body Of the twenty-four-year-old girl,
a sister Of Detective James Kane Of
the Atlantic avenue station.
The spot where the body was found
is a lot 200 feet from the girls home
and on the boundary line of the Lib
erty and Atlantic avenue precincts.
Detectives from both station houses
were rushed to the scene, among them
the brother.
Many Suspects Taken.
Detective Kane made the identified
tion of his sister. The murder was
carried out with maniacal holiness
During their investigation the police
learned that the girl had attended
theater in Manhattan and left some
girl friends at midnight on the Utica
avenue station of the L R. 7. line.
She then started to walk home.
When she was within a couple of
hundred feet Of home she was at
tackled, apparently by maniac, and
killed. The slayer had torn loose n
gold crucifix and a gold religious
medal from the chain by which they
hung around the girls neck and care
fully arranged them on her back. All
the man took away with him was the
gold chain, first communion rosary,
and the green silk underskirt that
Miss Kane wore.
No crime In the history Of the po.
lice department stirred the police to
more feverish activity than this, the
brother OF the dead girl being one of
the best known and liked Of the
younger detectives In the department.
The police never got very far in
learning who the slayer was.
Many suspects were brought in and
grilled by the detectives, but had to
be released for the lack Of evidence
Finally the case became "brick wall"
to the police. It ran along and soon
was forgotten by the people Of
Brooklyn.

This is just what has happened
during the last few weeks. We knew
there were millions of people who
had found the secret OF happiness IN
the same way, and we asked them in
one or two small announcements. in
the magazines and newspapers to
tell us their story. Letters came to us
from practically all over the globe.
All of them said "The secret Of
happiness is health"
How to get this health? The way
that all Of these people had dis
covered was not some magic medi-
cine, not some powerful drug, not
some difficult course of training
but only simple, harmless, natural
method. 1t was to keep the body in
ternally clean, sweeping its natural
poisons away each day, regularly as
clock work-by the use of Nujol.
These people had made a great
discovery. They had found out that
Nujol contains no drugs; that it is as
tasteless and colorless as pure water;
pleasant to take and forms no habit;
that it cannot hurt you, no matter
how much you take; that it is nom
fattening; not absorbed by the body;
