Investigation into the case of Alex
Lundquist. the Swede, who nearly
lost his life at Rutland a week ago
at the hands of four unknown as
sailants reveals a strange condition
of affairs. The police have found
several persons who were probably
eye witnesses of the assault, but not
one of them is willing to admit that
such was the case, or go into court
and testify against the assailants if
the latter should be arrested. They
seem to he in mortal fear of the ven-
geance of the gang who made the
assault and for this reason it now
looks likely that the outrage will have
to go unpublished. Lundquist is re-
covering and may be able to solve the
mystery when his head is clear

principal ration at the fort The men

it is possible that the charge of desr-

The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.

blood by feeding the bone

the richest of all fats, the pure
