Amy factor, therefore, in their causation

that Eye-strain Is frequent cause of

TO be the correct one beyond the'pOssl-

MYSTERY ISCLEARED
Woman Thrown from Train
Near EIIinwOod from Wichita.
Is STILL UNCONSCIOUS
Charles Jones Left for Moth
er'S Bedside Last Night.

Since the finding, On the Santa Fe
tracks, near Elinwood. Of the uncon-
scious body Of Mrs. Hattie Jones, whose
ticket showed that she came from this
city. the Santa Fe and newspapers have
been working diligently to locate the rel
aUves Of the injured woman and find
Whistler or not her home was in this city.
Yesterday afternoon reporter for the
Eagle learned that Mrs. Jones is from
this city. and that her home is at SO
South Topeka avenue.
II VIII be remembered that Mrs Jones
vas found il an unconscious condition
beside the Santa Fe tracks. about one
mile west of Eninwood, early Friday
morning and it was stated by the pas
s5agers and trainmen that she had walk
ed 10 the platform and deliberately
thrown herself from the swiftly moving
tain. She was taken back TO Eilinwood
and placed under a physicians care, but
until yesterday afternoon all efforts to re
vive her were unavailing.
-drs. Jones lived with her son, Charles
Jones who is employed by the Wichita
Rug company. at 500 South Topeka ave
nue. She has a son named Arthur. at
Newton, and her father lives about three
miles west Of EHnwood. Wednesday
she received a telegram stating that her
little son, Fay, who has been visiting
with his grandfather at Ellinwood, was
very low with typhoid fever, and was
hardly expected 10 live. Friday she de-
cided 10 go to his bedside, and took the
train Friday night for Ellinwood. Moth
ing more was heard from her until she
was found unconscious on the track
and very little has been learned of her
condition since Yesterday evening Chas.
Jones received a telegram stating Cat
his mother had been injured near Film
wood. and he left for that place last
night. The claim agent Of the Santa Fe,
N. Maher, came to this city Immediately
after the accident, and attempted to To-
cate the relatives Of the injured woman,
but was unable to 90 SO and left yester-
day afternoon.
Whether the woman fell or jumped
from the train is still a mystery, as she
is stil unconscious and unable TO state
for herself. The first theory advanced
was suicide, but the relatives state that
this theory is cut Of the question She
has had considerable trouble lately, but
they state that she was not The kind of
woman to commit suicide 1t is CON
sidered highly probable that she fell from
the train through a mistake. Her father
lives about three miles west of Elln-
wood, and it is said there is a junction
near his home AIRS. Jones was found
about two miles east Of the home Of her
father and it IS thought that she went
10 the platform expecting the train to
stop at the junction. and in the dark of
the early morning. either thought the
train had slowed down or lost her hold
and fell to the ground. The extent of
her injuries are not known, but it is
feared she IS Injured internally. though
no examination had been made yesterday.
because of her condition Her son has
gone TO her side, and should she die. she
would in all probability be brought to
this city.

that the harvest is well advanced but that
the farmers want more hands and at
every station the trains are met by the
daughters of the wheat raisers. The
men are working in the fields and if they
are fortunate to have daughters do not
meet the trains. The girls offer good in

more successful than the men. They prom

A VITAL DIFFERENCE.

When caught IN heavy gales
at sea the fishermen of Norway
often used cod liver oil to break
the force of the waves. They do
this by squeezing the cod livers
over the raging water. For this
purpose the oil in its natural
state is perfectly adapted. But
when you come to think of it
as a remedy for consumption and
other wasting complaints it is
quite a different matter. To eat
fat does not prevent the loss of
fat, or flesh; mach less does 1T
nut flesh on. That is why there
is no foundation whatever for
the faith some badly informed
persons have in plain cod liver
oil as a remedy. Any starchy
food, such as rice, is more fat
tening than any oil, but all star
chy foods are horribly indigesti-
BILE, and so is plain cod liver
oil; and good digestion is of all
things necessary to invalids. On
the other hand pure cod liver
oil contains medicinal principles
of a high order, but to be of
use to the sick they must first
be eztracted from the abomi-
nable grease and scientifically
blended with other curative and
nutrient substances of equal
value. This has always been
successfully accomplished in
WAMPOLE's PREPARATION
which is palatable as honey and
contains the nutritive and cura-
tive properties of Pure Cod
Liver Oil, extracted by us from
fresh cod livers, combined with
the Compound Syrup of Hypo-
phosphites and the Extracts of
Malt and Wild Cherry. In this
scientific union of ingredients
we have the perfect flesh maker
and life-giver, with a success
full record in Anemia, Scrofula,
Throat and Lung Troubles, and
all diseases of the blood. Con-
tains the gold of cod liver oil

AS student of colonization and of the

ly as could wish to see the success Of
the Zionist movement, I regret that it is
impossible to avoid the conclusion that
if a.Jewish state were formed in Uganda
1t is demonstrate that it Is foredoomed

400 miles from the sea. The drawbacks,
therefore, can be appreciated most thor
oughly by those who, like the writer,
have had practical experience in the
organization and government of colon
list communities. The first fact which
the leaders of the proposed Jewish state
will have to consider is the question of
access to market. There are few COM
modities in the present state of interna-
tional competition which will bear the
expense of land transport for 400 miles
on a tropical railway. Wheat, vege-
tables and timber are not among these
commodities. Coffee, rubber, tea, ostrich

for export; but the cultivation of cof-

oriental; combined with blue or scarlet
cloth, a very military though slightly
dramatic touch is gained, which is most
becoming to women with vivid hair and
clear, colorless skin.
Moleskin is so far the fur fad Of the
season, Just as squirrel was last year, and
is often seen combined with squirrel,
where ermine is shade too extravagant.
A very beautiful moleskin fat cape is
entirely of scales of fur, the edge Of each
circle having a fringe Of point de venise
lace, very narrow.
Full lace ruchings edge the cape and
there is military trimming of moleskin
chenille. A very fat muff is of moleskin
scales, and the lower wide edge is fringed
with lace and chenille. A hat of moleskin
has wide brim of crushed blue peoples,
with big white velvet bow resting on the
hair at the back.
A very odd fur tie Is in a fiat scarf
carefully fitted but not worn close about
the throat, and with graduated stole
fronts which reach the knees. Just where
the scarf would tie one side is slashed
and the other side drawn through just
as golf stock is managed at the back.
More often than not in the very dressy
fur sets chiffon is the foundation goods
rather than the trimming. A very deep
cape of corn colored chiffon is trimmed
with ruches of marigold taffeta with a
spiral design on the chiffon of narrow
cable bands. A cluster of cable chenille
ends hang from a sable clasp half way
to the knees.
The muff looks like section of an
extremely fat banana. 1t is of full
