SCHANDER CANNOT

Second Effort to Secure the
Estate Of Miss Dolbeer
Meets Defeat in Court
LITIGATION AT AN END

"The decedent at the date of writ
ing the instrument and of executing
it in the presence of witnesses was of
sound mind, unconstrafned by undue
influence, and the evidence being en-
tfreIy In favor of the respondents. the
petition of contestant should be and

With this decision Judge Coffey yes
terday brought to an end the second
long fought contest of the will of
Bertha M Dolbeer. brought by her
uncle, Horatio Schander, in an effort.
10 secure an apportionment of her i'm
mense estate which was left almost
wholly to her companion. Eta Marian
Warren, who was with her atstheStime
of her tragic death in the waldorf
Astoria in New York City in July; 1904.
The decision for the second time s1e-@
gally disposes of all doubt as to Miss
Dolbeer's sanity or the validity of her
VIII from the standpointf of tfle-- ex-.
ercise OF outside influence, and prob
ably brings TO an end 4for all time
the litigation which has continuei al
most nterruptedly since her death.
No motion for an appeal has been made,
and it was agreed Wednesday that a.
third contest. begun by Mrs. Rachael
Schander as executrix of the esta te of.
Adolph Schander, should be submitted
without argument on the same testi--
nlony taken in this case. -

Miss Warren, or If she received $4,000

would have been materially modified;
but aside from this an examination of
her evidence diseioses no fact justify
ing a deduction of uf1soundness Of
mind at the date of making the will,
nor at any other. time within the
knowledge of the witness, and it is
apparent from her own statements that
Mrs. Phillips, in her intercourse with
decedent, always treated her as a ra-
tional person. possessed of sound judg-
ment, up to the last time she saw her,
just prior to Berthas departure for
Europe.
The will is not at variance with

Coffey. ti0n the contrary 1t Is in ac-
cord with the natural sentiments of
affection resulting from the intimacy

There IS nothing in the instrument it

Heart Failure
A Term Very Much 0yerworked

You read in the papers every day of
prominent men dying suddenly, and the
physicians decide that the cause was
heart failure. Does anybody know
what that means2 What made the
heart fail2 The heart never fails with
out a reason Find that reason and
you viii ind the actual cause of death.
l say IL is, nine times out OF ten. ex-
haustion Of vitality. The heart stops
beating because the power which runs
IL is shut of That power is vital en-
ergy. which is nerve force.
Let as take as an example the case
OF the millionaire who recently offered
S1.0O0.0e0 for a healthy stomach. Sup
pose that he should die suddenly. His
death would be ascribed TO heart fail
ure'; the real cause would be stomach
failure because his food does not di-
gest, therefore. his heart is denied the
nutrition which il should receive To
trace the cause correctly / would say
that the consumption Of food in the
stomach generates carbonic heat. which
is electricity. Carried into the nerves,
II becomes nerve force. which is the
motive energy Of the heart Naturally
II the heart does not receive a suff1-
cient quantity OF this nerve force, its

failure
Too many physicians make the mis-
take Of treating the condition and over
looking the cause. If a heart is weak
they stimulate II with drugs, when they
ought 10 devote the treatment to build
ing up the stomach, which is the real
cause OF the heart failure. There is
only one possible result OF such treat
ment-coiiapse sooner or later. Every
time the heart is stimulated by a drug
