Mr.. KYLE'S INNOVATION.
Would Make Jurisdiction in Murder
Trials Flexible.

Representative Kyle, of Marion coun-
ty, has introduced a bill in the house
calculated to serve the ends of justice
and save many counties from a large
and fruitIess expense in murder trials.
The bill provides that where a crime
is committed on a railroad train or wa
ter craft in the state that the trial of
the case can be held legally in the
county where the crime might have
been committed.
Mr.. Kyle had in mind the expensive
experience of Marion county in the
Carr murder trial Bailey the victim,
was last seen alive at Emporia He
was found dead at Newton. The bloody
Ratchet that caused his death was
found by the railroad tracks at Horton
Station in Marion county He was tried
in the latter county on the superstition
that the crime was committed in it's
boundaries The defense urged the plea
that Marion had no positive Jurisdiction
in the matter and mistrial resulted
The same plea is made in the present
trial of Carr.
Mr. Kyle has talked over the provis-
ions of his bill with Attorney General
Jackson and the judiciary committee
and has been told that his measure is
a good one. 1t will prevent the defeat
of the ends of justice through a tech
nicality OF the law. Mr. Kyle followed
the text of the Illinois law in drawing
his bill.

BOTH GAINED
BY Change to Postum.

I'VE have given Postum over wears
trial" writes a Wis. lady, land our only
regret is that we did not try it before
Previously we used coffee twice a dav
and were very fond of it.
MY husband had been subject to Sc
we're attacks of sick headache for wears
and at such times could not endure the
sight or smell of coffee. This led me to
suspect that coffee was the cause of his
trouble
Il was also troubled very much with
acidity of the stomach and heart pal
pitation after meals. I had been doc
toring for this but had not suspected
that coffee was the cause.
Finally We purchased some Postum
and 1t did for me what the medicines
had failed to do. The first dav We
used Postum 1 noticed less of nv own
trouble, the second day was entirely
free from it and have never been trou-
bled since.
My husband has been entirely free
from attacks of sick headache since he
quit coffee and began to use Postum
nave heard people say they did not
like the favour of Postum yet 1 have
served it to them without detection. be-
cause II has the color and snappy COT
Zee taste, similar to mild high-grade
Java This shows they had not made
1t right. When made according to di-
rections on pkg. it is as delicious as
coffee and besides it is wholesome"

most any newspaper advertising man
would say that the Atlas should be do
ing many times its present volume of
business.
And now it seems that the Atlas has
arrived at the same Conclusion.
It has established an advertising de-
partment, with one of the brightest
writer's in this country at it's head
was with the Atlas but later made a
reputation in the agency advertising
field of the Pacific coast.
Mr.. Grove has rolled up his sleeves
and IS making things hum for the At
las. The cut herewith gives some idea
of what he is doing. The county pa
pers all over Kansas are swapping up
the special proposition presented by
Mr.. Grove and the Atlas, and gladly
carrying the crisp, 1O0-horsepower
pulling ads sent out from the Atlas Of
fees.
The plan is to increase the number
of local boards in the state by
means of the newspaper publisher and
his columns, knowing full we'll that
there is no more potent influence on
earth. The publishers are responding
to the Atlas plan; pulling for it; and
already the associations business is
growing by leaps and bounds as Mr..
Grove expresses it. Ten new towns or
ganized local boards in January, and
the first day of this month brought ap-
plications for local boards in eight
new towns. The first week of Feb
ruary realized % applications for
boards from as many different towns
and the mails of every day since have
ateria liZed new prospects.
The moral is that the people will
buy a meritorious article if given the
chance. And the Atlas is a "meritor-
ius article" There isn't a better brand
of building and loan stock. Last De-
cember, according to Secretary Per-
kins's figures, the association paid to
members $25,0O6 in cash. In January

But the old, tried and trustworthy
politician is not the only institution"
that can pull off a stunt compelling
the states attention.
Here comes the old, tried and trust
worthy Atlas Building and Loan as
ISOLATION of Lawrence with a depart
ure from the beaten path that is MAX
ing the small investor in Kansas sit
up and take notice. For the past 10
years the Atlas has been engaged in
building homes, loaning money, earn
ing dividends and maturing shares for
thousands of members, covering at
least 800 towns in the state, but most
of this time it practically has been
hiding it's light under a bushel-that
is, viewing it from an advertising
mans standpoint.
With its authorized capital Of $10,-
900, 900, its admirable plan of doing
business and the influence of such Of

new loans were closed in over twenty
two towns in Kansas and the January
dividend matured $4,000 worth of
investment stock to par value (not so
or 80 cents on the dollar) and paid off
borrowers loans in over dozen towns
in Kansas.
Since adopting it's new plan of get
ting business the Atlas office force has
been rushed to death" by the addi-
ton of new business to it's routine
work, and the chances are that the
force will have to be doubled within
a very short time.
One thing is certain, when the Atlas
and the publishers of Kansas get into
complete working partnership
something worth while is going to
happen. And to help the matter
along the association is printing a
crisp little newspaper of its own, edit
ed by Mr.. Grove, which is sent out
free to all who write for it.

lions in his petition are correct 1t is no
wonder that he wants his freedom.
The couple were married at Win
field, Kan, on Christmas day, 1905 and
trouble started shortly afterwards on
account of the temper of Mrs. Broyles,
so states the petition of the husband
He claims that when she becomes
angry that she is a terror and that
she has pulled his hair, beat him and
threatened to kill him on several
occasions.
The answer of the defendant in the
case indicates that she is equally de-
sirous of legal separation, the
question which is keeping them apart
or rather together being that of the
division of property She denies all
that he claims in his petition except
ing in one common fact that they
were married on Christmas day in
Winfield.

band, Edward G. Frank, for a divorce

She claims that after they had lived
together for about two years that he
began to tire of her as companion
and that since that time he has not
been all that a good husband should
be. Four years later she complains
that he abandoned her and their boy

GARBAGE PLANT BUSINESS.

Don't see what we want to go to
the low country for them for, when we
can raise 'em just as good here, and
better acclimatized than theirs, at less
cost"
That is what Mr.. A. D. Dorsett, who
has a business on Charlotte street, on
the outskirts of Yorkville, said when he
was asked about an experiment he is
making in the raising Of cabbage
plants.
Mr.. Dorsett has patch at his home
that Is about forty feet wide by a hun
dred and fifty or more feet long, and
as full as it can hold of plants, from
three to four inches high.
mo, there is very little danger from
frost" he said. Il raised them for two
or three seasons at Glover, and almost
put stop to the importation of plants
from the lower part Of the state. sold
them in the fall and in the spring, and
the people around Glover found them
better and harder than the plants that
were shipped in"
Mr.. Dorset went on to say that his
plants will stand some chance Of get
ting killed in the winter but he does
not think there will be a great deal OF
danger. He has never met with any
considerable loss in this way yet, and
thinks he knows pretty well how to
guard against it.
