MUENTER WRITES
TO WIFE'S UNCLE.
Fond du Lac Man Receives Strange I'm
signed Letter from New
Orleans

FOND DU LAC, Wis, June s.
Especial. Lewis It. Haas, an uncle
of Leona Muenter, the woman who died
under mysterious circumstances at Cam
bridge, Mass, is in receipt of letter
which he believes is from Eric Muenter,
the woman's husband, who is wanted on
a charge of murder. The letter is I'M
signed and is dated New Orleans The
letter is a strange one.
1t starts out with description of a
murder of a woman, the details of
which might we'll have correspondent
with the supposed Massachusetts crime.
1t then goes on to harshly criticize the
newspapers for giving SO much notoriety
to the case and the last two pages are
filled with pleadings with the dead wom
ans relatives to believe him innocent of
the crime with which he has been ac-
cused. Then he Immediately turns
about and denounces his brothers-in-law
for calling him a murderer and calls
them despicable
There is no doubt here that the letter
is from Muenter. Mr.. Haas says that
the letter gives the names Of all Of the
dead woman's brothers and for this rea
son he is sure that it must be the miss
ing Harvard professor.

BUILDING FOOD.


When a little human machine Cor a
large one) goes wrong, nothing Is SO
important as the selection of food to
bring it around again.
My little baby boy fifteen months
old had pneumonia, then came brain
fever, and no sooner mad he got over
these than he began to cut teeth and,
being so weak, he was frequently
thrown into commissions" says Color
ado mother.
Il decided a change might help, SO
took him to Kansas City for visit.
When we got there he was so very weak
when he would cry he would sink away
and seemed like he would die.
when | reached my sisters home
she said Immediately that we must feed
him Grape-Nuts, and, although l had
never used the food, we got some and
for q few days gave him just the juice.
Of Grape Nuts and milk. He got
stronger so quickly we were soon feed
ing him the Grape-Nuts itself, and in
a wonderfully short time he fattened
right up and became strong and well.
"That showed me something worth
knowing and, when later on my girl
came, | raised her on Grape-Nuts and
she is strong, healthy baby and has
been. You will see from the little pho
tograph I send you what a strong,
chubby youngster the boy Is now, but
he didn't look anything like that before
we found this nourishing food Grape
Nuts nourished him back to strength
when be was SO weak he couldn't keep
any other food on his stomach" Name
given by Postum Co., Battle Creek,
Mich.
All children can be built up to a more
sturdy and healthy condition upon
Grape-Nuts and cream. The food con-
tains the elements nature demands,
from which to make the soft gray fill
ing in the nerve centers and brain. A.
well-fed brain and strong, sturdy nerves
absolutely insure healthy body.

OMAHA, Neb., June HIT is the
opinion of twelve good men and true
that a woman with the mumps can
swallow Il diamond. Mae Thomas, ac-

After ALL the question of what be-

answer. If she swallowed it, as she
has stated on sundry occasions, though
she testified she did not know whether
she had or not, is it still in her stomach,
is the question which Jeweler Combs
would like to have answered.
Miss Thomas has declared that if she
were placed on trial she would not con-
sent to the use of the knife to enable
Jeweler Combs to get back his diamond,
and there the matter rests.
