a man who has made something OF a
study on this line writes from Iowa City:
when l first tried Grape-Nuts il was at
the table OF a prominent State official and
the remarkable taste attracted me. af-
EDWARDS investigated the subject carefully
and discovered that Grape-Nuts contains
oextrOse sugar. The starchy part OF the
food is . nsformed into starch sugar or
dextrose. Those same results are pro-
duced by the digestive organs by the ac-
ton OF the saliva and the pancreatic
juices on starchy foods. These facts con-
vInceG me that Grape-Nuts is a natural.
predigested food. and Just what required

ARGUMENTS UNDER WAY.
Pittser Murder Trial Is Fast Drawing
tn n Close at Muncic.


Special to the indianapolis Journal.
MUNCIE, Ind, April 1.-THE evidence
was concluded in the trial of Charles Pitt
ser, of Yorktown, charged with numbering
his wife, and arguments were begun this
afternoon. The jury will be charged by
Judge Leffler by 10 o'clock Friday morning,
and the general belief is that a verdict of
guilty of murder in the first degree will be
rendered before noon.
The defense has made a lame a. tempt
to prove insanity. and about the only in
terest or speculation is whether the young
man will escape the gallows for a life sem
tence. There has been no denial of the
crime. the defense offering evidence of
Pittser's past life TO snow that he had
several times attempted suicide and that
ancestors had been adjudged insane. -Four
young men who served with the defendant
in the Philippine war testified of acts in
the far East to show a diseased mind. but
his actions there are believed to have re-
suited from his indulgence in strange in
tOXicants.
The trial has filled the courtroom daily.
but there have been no unusual incidents
except when the waist worn by the dead
woman was shown, with its bullet holes
and blood stains. As the garment was in
reduced a sister of Mrs. Pittser screamed,
and had to be carried from the room. She
was hysterical for some time and stopped
the trial until carried from the building.
DIR. owing DIR. Kemper and DR.. Poland,
who saw the murderer on the day of the
tragedy, testified that he was not of I'M
sound mind, and this evidence is believed
10 have sealed the verdict. Prosecutor
John Walterhouse made the opening speech
for the State, talking for one hour. At
tOrney John A. Keener, for the defense,
and l.. r. Starr, for the State, each talked
fOrty-five minutes. Prosecutor Dearth and
Attorney ROllin bennington will make the
closing arguments in the morning.
