Of crime and mystery is shrouded in

sas. Yet 1t is doubtful If the blood
thirsty Kate Bender In her palmiest
days was ever equal to the awful
crimes that are laid Mt the door of the
Guinness woman. The story of the La
Porte murder farm recalls the noto-
rious doings Of the Bender family in
Montgomery County, Kan, about forty
years ago, and the famous case OF
Henry ii. Holmes, who swindled insur-
ance companies and was held respon-
slble for the murder of quite long list
Of persons. He was hanged in Phila-

their motive. The Blenders mysterl-

THE LA PORTE MURDER FARM.

Grewsome Revelations There Read
Like Story of the AIid-Centuries.
Like a chapter from the bloody rec
ords Of the mid-centuries is the ter
rible story unfolded by the authorities
of La Porte, Ind, where wholesale muir
der was done for years without anyone
knowing or suspecting IT. Criminal rec
ords contain no parallel of the grew
some story revealed in the finding of
the clearing house for murders kept by
Mrs. Belle Guinness near the Indiana
town. Just how many persons met
their fate In connection with the bloody
business carried on there will perhaps
never be known. The skeletons dis
covered on her premises and the fact
that expressmen had many times de-
livered to her boxes and trunks now
believed to contain human bodies form
the chief materials for the construction
of the strange story Of her career. She
is supposed to have lured rich men to
her den by matrimonial advertisements
and then made away with them for
their money, and also to have run al
murder fence for the benefit OF her
partners in the awful trade of human
slaughter, the latter operating in Chi
cngo and sending the bodies of their
victims to her for burial. 1t is the
theory Of the prosecution that Mrs.
Guinness deliberately lured men to
her farm by means of an advertisement
In Chicago newspaper. in which she
represented herself as an attractive and
amiable widow looking for mate. She
alleged that she was the owner Of
valuable farm and sought well-to-do
farmer as a husband. After visit
from such a candidate she generally in
duced him, 1t appears, to sell his farm
and come to her with the proceeds Of
the sale, at which time she would de-
liberately murder him and bury his
body en- the premises.
For years this strange woman is

Th. Doctor H.bit.

One Of the tendencies of iii health Il
to make one morbid. People who are.
constantly thinking about their all
ments, worrying about their troubles,
suffering pain. often develop morbid
passion for sympathy. They want to.
tell everybody of their aches and pains.
to describe their symptoms.
Have you ever known woman who
has acquired the doctor habit, a won.
an who loves nothing In the world
quite 80 we'll as an opportunity to tell
the doctor Of her ailmentsl She has
poured them out to unwelcome ears. to.
forced listeners, till she longs for some
one who can really appreciate it ali.
who sympathizes with her in her trou-
bles; 30 she sends for the doctor, OF

This becomes almost mania with
some women, who have few outside ac-

TEA AND HOW TO SERVE IT.

Consumption of This Beverage Rap
IDLY Incrcasing Here.
Tea is term which has had some
curious applications, according to lead
ing authorities. says the New York
World. A great variety Of beverages
and decoctiOns made from herbs and
plants unknown in China have been
called teas In imitation Of the genu-
Inc article. In early tea-drinking days,
when fragrant Bohea was sold for
twelve to thirty shillings pound, poor
folk, who could not afford such lux
ury, endeavored to content themselves
with a drink from less expensive tea,,
which was regarded not only as a pleas
ant but particularly wholesome bey-
erage. Another popular DRINK was gin
ger ten. In revolutionary days In. this
country various substitutes for tea
were used. Some New Englanders
drank tea made from the leaves Of
RIB wort, strawberry plants, sage and
other herbs.
1t is said that no Englishwoman is
happy without her tea and that Amer
leans are the great coffee drinkers, but
the consumption of tea Is constantly
on the increase. An afternoon tea is
pleasant way of entertaining ones
friends. An advantage is that larger
number Of guests can be entertained
than Is usually possible at dinner
or luncheon. All teas are similar, as
the form of extending this hospitality
is much the same everywhere Some
times collection of small tables is
used, distributed here and there about
one or two rooms, but as rule one
large table is most popular, and from
this the ten and refreshments are
served. This should be covered with
a spotless white linen cloth, prettily
decorated with flowers and silver; a
tea service stands at one end and a
chocolate set at the other, each pre-
sided over by some friend of the host
ess. Sandwiches, cake, bonbons and an
Ice are sufficient compliments. A maid
should be In attendance to remove
soiled cups and plates.
