ISSUES IN GAINES CASE
BOY MISSING FROM HOME IS
Lower Court Failed to Charge the
Law of Self-Defense and Gaines
Gets New Trial.

Austin, Texas, March 16.-The- court
of criminal appeals today reversed
and remanded the case of Representa-
tive E. C. Gaines, appealed from Hood
county Gaines was convicted in the
district court of Hood county of the
killing of ]. W. Reese, his opponent in
the race for the legislature, and given
three years in the penitentiary. The
principal issues involved in the case
was the question of self-defense and
the issue of provoking a difficulty.
These issues were raised by the ap-
pellant Gaines. The court of Grim
inal appeales hold that the trial court
erred in not submitting to the jury
the issue of provoking difficulty, as
the court says: 1.-The record strongly
indicates that appellant had been
more circumspect in his speech than
deceased-that defendant Gaines did
not make any statement or do any act
reasonably calculated and intended to
provoke difficulty. We think it
clear that the court erred in not sub
hitting these issues" Defendants
contention as to threats of bodily
harm should have been given to the
jury. The court says: "A person has
the same right to defend his person
from serious bodily injury under the
law of threats as he would to protect
his life. The court suggests that at
another trial the court should charge
with regard to self-defense against the
apprehension of serious bodily injury
to appellants life"

SLENDER Margaret Knolly, now, if
you please. The fascinating leading
lady of the Bijou. now more fascinat-
ing than ever, astonished all her
friends on Broadway the other day
by presenting to their admiring gaze
a svelt and willowy form in place of
the plump, not to say fat. outlines
with which she gaily sailed away to
new triumphs and foreign shores last
January. After a good deal of diplo-
matte cross-examinatiOn from interest
ed fat acquaintance the secret was
cautiously whispered to a few dear
friends, with the result that every
body knows it now. 1t was not eXer-
else, nor fasting, nor sea air, nor wor-
ry about her new venture that had
brought about this wonderful willowy
change in the charming Margaret; no,
none of these; nothing but a simple
mixture which all good druggists are
familiar with and can supply at small
cost, to-wit: One-half ounce Marmola,
one-half ounce Fluid Extract Cascara
Aromatic, and three and one-half
ounces Peppermint Water. Grown
folks need a teaspoonful after meals
and at bedtime explained the now
slender Margaret. 1T is simply won
derful. 1t takes off the fat quickly,
as much as pound day, and keeps
it off You can eat what you like,
too. In that respect it is unlike any
thing of the kind ever heard of, and
besides it has another splendid fea-
ture-it is entirely harmless, and will
not cause wrinkles. l think it is
about as essential a toilet article for
the woman who is fat and wants to
get thinner as face powder. In order
to get the best results, however, you
should buy the Marmola in the origi-
nal package and mix it in the other
two ingredients after you get home.
