After the murder she came to America with Eyraud, but later returned to Paris and, urged by a young man with whom she had fallen in love, confessed her share in the | crime. At her trial it was contended that she was a hypnotic subject, and a | hypnotist expert tried to secure p: is- | sion to hypnotize her in open couft and | have her enact the crime, but the jury | voted against the experiment. She was convicted and _sentenced to twenty | vears' imprisonment, which, with com- mutation for good behavior, recently expired. —— PREVENTS THE ELOPEMENT OF HIS GRANDDAUGHTER | John Dickson of Colfax Upsets the Carefully Laid Plans of Dora Saits and Her Sweetheart. .

A Remarkable Number of Cures Made hy the Pyramid Pile Sure. | About one person in every four suf- | | fers from some form of rectal disease. The most common and annoying is itch- ing piles, indicated by warmth, slight | moisture and intense, uncontrollable i itching in the parts affected. | The usual treatment has been some | simple ointment or salve which some- i times give temporary relief, but noth- ing like a permanent cure can be ex- | pected from such superficial treatment. { " The only permanent cure for itching piles yet discovered is the Pyramid Pile Cure, not only for itching piles but for | every other form of piles, blind, bleed- {ing or protruding.
