CALLED WIFE A LIAR.
Then Lieutenant Janney Got a Gun
and Shot Himself.

Manila, March 1.-THE military in
quest into the death of Lieutenant
Clarence M. Janney developed the
fact that a silver champagne cooler
was the cause of the final quarrel
which led the lieutenant to kill him
self
The cooler originally belonged to the
lieutenant, and according to the testi-
mony taken, was given by Mrs. Janney
to Lieutenant Colonel Robert F. Ames.
When the lieutenant and his wife dined
at the home of Ames last Saturday
night, Janney saw and recognized the
cooler, whereupon he upbraided his
wife for having given it to Ames.
During the verbal exchange that fol-
lowed, the lieutenant called Mrs Jan
ney liar and insisted that she apollo
gize to him. The wife apologized and
the dinner was resumed, it being gem
orally thought by the other guests that
the incident was closed.
A little later, however, Janney left
yer with which. according to the cor
oner and a military board of inquiry,
he shot himself in the presence of
those at the table. Mrs. Janney testi-
fed that her husband and Lieutenant
Colonel Ames were intimate friends.
In army circles it is believed the &C
ton of Major General William H. Car
ter, commanding the department of
Luzon, in returning the report of the
board of inquiry with a request that
further testimony be taken, means that
a court martial is contemplated

TEN YEARS TEST
OF ECZEMA CURE

After a ten years test, oil of winter
green, as compounded in D. d. d.
Prescription, has so thoroughly, SO abb
solutely proven its merit for skin dis
eases, that we have arranged with the
D. d. D. Laboratories of Chicago for a
special offer on a 25-cent trial bottle
We ourselves became convinced years
ago. Cure after cure and the testimony
of the worlds leading skin specialists
showed us that the way to cure the
skin is through the skin; not, however,
by means of a sa1ve which always clogs
the outer skin, but with a penetrating
liquid that gets to the inner skin, kill
ing the germs while soothing the
healthy tissue.
The Oil of Wintergreen Compound D.
D. D. Prescription, penetrate while
soothing the skin; and a 25 cent bottle
a good sized trial bottle-now offered,
besides the S1-00 bottles, in order to
convince everybody. For this trial bot
tie ought to be enough to show the way
to the cure, and at any rate the liquid
the instant 1t is applied will take away
that itch-yes, just as soon as the wash
is applied, the skin is soothed and re-
freshed.
