UP GOES ICE CREAM soDAs.
Druggists Says the Advance Is Due to
Pure Food Law.

Kansas City, Kan. March 13-The
druggists have decided to advance the
price of ice cream sodas. Ten cents,
including the straw, is to be the cost to
the consumer. Usually it is five cents
in the summer months. The druggists
and other dealers charge ten cents in
the winter but heretofore they have
always reduced the price April 1.
The cause? Well, the druggist will
tell you the new pure food law is to
blame. Not that he's been selling
adulterated goods, of course, but the
products that will pass government in
spection cost him more, he says.
There's never been any profit in
ice cream soda" said a Minnesota ave-
nue. druggist yesterday. "If there had
been we'd be riding in motor cars.
Since the pure food law went into eff
feet all extracts have been forced out
of the market and havoring must be
made with preserved fruit. This has
raised the price of flavoring Is per
cent.
Then the price of ice cream went
up. 1t has advanced ten cents a gal
lon. This means from So to IS a day
to US. We've always furnished the
best of goods. but when the first class
stuff no longer had to compete with
the imitation there came an advance
all along the line and we've been
forced to follow"

and that Holbrook assigned and allot-

BURGLAR WAS HIS OWN son.
Father Made Prisoner of Intruder and
Afterward Recognized Him.

Tyron, Neb.. March 13.-Richard
Kempthorne captured a burglar in his
house late last night, and this morning
discovered that tine intruder was his
own son, Benjamin. who disappeared
mysteriously from home twenty years
ago. and whom his father had mourn
ed as dead.
Kempthcrne was awakened about
midnight and, getting his revolver,
crept upon the fellow, who offered no
resistance. Calling his hired man,
Kempthorne bound his prisoner hand
and foot and locked him up in an out
house, intending to turn him over to
the sheriff in the morning. When
Kempthorne opened the Clubhouse this
morning and looked in upon the pris-
oner, who was asleep on the floor. he
staggered back as if he had been shot,
and exclaimed, MY God, it's my own
bow" The burglar acknowledged his
Identity. He is evidently a moral
wreck, but the father will try to re-
form him and keep him at home.

TRIED 1T ON THE DOG.
How Cause of Death of Woman and
Child Was Discovered.

Denver, March 13.-Unless new and
important evidence shall be found
against Benjamin C. Wright, he will
probably never be tried on the charge
of numbering his wife and child. Dis
trict Attorney George A. Stidger ad-
mits that evidence to convict the man
is lacking but has not yet dropped the
investigation. The alleged confession
made by Wright to Chief of Police
Michael Delaney is said to be worth
less as evidence, having been obtained
by use of physical force Three physi-
clans who examined Wright in Jail
after he made the confession declared
that he had recently been cruelty
beaten. as he claimed. No poison was
found in the bodies of Mrs. Wright and
her child and it is claimed by the de-
Tense that their deaths were probably
caused by carbon dioxide from de-
fective gas heater in which fire had
been burning all night when the
bodies were found. AS a test of this
theory the defense placed dog in the
house with the gas heater burning and
after two hours, 1t is asserted, the ami
NAL was taken out asphyxiated.

There is a beauty and attractive
ness in health which is far greater
than mere regularity of feature.
A sicklv, irritable, and complaining
woman always carries a cloud of
depression with her; she is not only
unhappy herself but is damper to
all joy and happiness when with her
family and friends.
It is the bright. healthy, vivacious
woman who always charms and carries
sunshine wherever she goes.
If a woman finds that her energies
are tagging and that everything tires
her; if her feminine system fails to
perform its allotted duties. there is
nervousness. sleeplessness, faintness,
backache, headache, bearing down
pains. and irregularities, causing
constant misery and melancholia,
she should remember that Lydia e.
