TUST how to furnish the most

oD the digestive organs is the prob
lem for the ono who prepares the
invalid's tray, No amount of good in
tcntions or unselhsh cndcavor can make
up for lack of intelligence or skill in the
selection and preparation of food.
When it happens that ono sort of food
must be served again and again, nothing
but the highest intelligence makes it
possible TO serve tho too familiar articles
as something new. 1t is not always
necessary or wise for the invalid TO
recognize his food A proper under
standing of food values teaches that the
same sort of nourishmcnt is found in
the white of egg and beef juice. This
allows legitimate substitution of one
for the other, or makes possible variety
and attractivcness. White of egg may
be combined with water or milk and

1t should be. for all housekeepers of cx-

Hyde Murder Trial
Begun at Kansas City

The trial of Dr. B. G. Hyde for the
murder of Thomas H. Swope, millonair
philanthropst and uncle of his wife, has
begun before Judge Ralph S. LatshaW at
Kansas City. Eleven indictments we're
returned against Dr. Hyde by the special
grand jury, which spent ten days in
vestgating every angle of the alleged
murder. One Indictment as for the
murder of Thomas H. Swope; one for
the murder of the millionaire's nephew,
Chrisman Swope, and the remainder for
alleged attempts to inoculate members
of the Swope family with typhoid bac-
terra. On the result of the legal battle,
will hinge the action of the law in re-
gard to the other ten indictments
Should DR. Hyde be acquitted Of the
murder of Colonel Swope the other
indictments, in all probability, will be
quashed. Never in the history of Mis-
souri, has such an array of legal and pro-
fessiona talent been broug together.as
that which will be seen at the Hyde
trial.

yesterday especially to trim the

and he pitched good bali.
But Len McCamment of the

Bonner and McCamment were

Soldiers Play Games
Before 5000 People

A novelty in baseball was wit
messed at the stadium by 5000
people yesterday when the sol
diers opened their battles of the
week for the cash prizes offered.
Two games were played on a
field covered with four inches of
loose sawdust. The fielding stunt
under these conditions consisted
in getting to where the ball hit
the ground first for there is where
it generally stuck.
A lot of arc lights scattered
through the sky also made fielding
fly balls something of an art.
Notwithstanding these handi-
caps, however, the soldiers put up
a couple of good exhibitions. In
the first game the, First cavalry
team defeated the negro soldiers

Since the days of the sand lots
and side whiskers baseball has de-
veloped into more than frolic. AS
played now by profound gentlemen
with knitted brows and a purpose
in life, it is a sort of scholastic
session. Playing at a game of ball
is become indeed a noble profess
sion, like law or medicine or piano
tuning, which have principles and
ethics and red hot chickering's over
their fundamental truths.
True enough, the savants of the
national sport do not pore over an
alembic, or pursue works on trig-
onometry, but they are expected to
be versed in the laws and logic of
the pastime. Putting on a neat
gray uniform with ride binding is
entirely subsidiary to coming
across with some brain work While
wearing the same. Throwing to
the wrong base is equivalent to "a
