me untold misery for hours after
4 eating.
II lost flesh until I was almost a

friends were quite alarmed about me.
First dropped coffee and used
Postum, then began to use Grape-Nuts
although had little faith it would do
me any good.
"But / continued to use the food and
have gained twenty pounds in weight
and feel like another person in every
way. feel as If life had truly begun
anew for me.
Il can eat anything I like now in
moderation, suffer no ill effects, be on
my feet from morning until night.
Whereas year ago they had to send
me away from home for rest while
others cleaned house for me, this
spring have been able to do it myself
\ all alone.
my breakfast is simply Grape-Nuts
with cream and cup Of Postum, with
sometimes an egg and piece Of toast,
but generally only Grape-Nuts and

SAYS MURDERESS IS ALIVE
Attorney for Ray Lamphere Appeals
for Funds to Offer Reward for
Mrs. Guinness.

Laporte. Ind, June 2O.-H. w. Wor-
den, attorney for Ray Lamphere, in
dicted for the murder of Mrs. Gun
ness. her three children and Andrew
Helgelein, today in a formal statement
scored the county authorities for their
actions and also made a public appeal
for subscriptions for a fund to be used
as a reward for the apprehension Of
Mrs. Guinness.
After referring to the fact that COTO-
ner Mack has officially pronounced Mrs.
Guinness dead, Mr. Worden declares
that Ray Lampheres guilt or inno-
cence does not depend upon whether
Mrs. Guinness is dead or alive, but from
certain evidence that has come into
his possession he is convinced the WOm-
an is enjoying life and liberty.
The first positive information on the
manner in which Mrs. Belle Guinness,
the rch-murderess, disposed of the per-
sons whose bodies were found in her
private cemetery was obtained today
when DR. Walter Haynes of Rush Med
zeal college, Chicago. reported infor-
maHy TO Coroner Mack that he had
found traces of arsenic and strychnine
in the stomach of Andrew Helgelein OF
Aberdeen, S. D., whose dismembered
body was the first of the ten found
after the fire which caused the death
