To the Injuries of Her Burns and
Passes Away at Nine-Thirty
O'Clock Last Night.

Mrs. ]. P. Garner, who was burned
almost week ago while burning trash
in Ter yard, died last night at about
$3.50 o'clock, after making a brave
fight for life At first it was thought
that her burns would not prove fatal,
but her age and the shock were too
much, and she yielded to death. The
funeral services were held at the fam
lily home, 235 Cottage avenue, this af-
ternoon at o'clock, and interment
followed in the East Hill cemetery.
Mrs. Garner is survived by four
grown sons, Messrs. F. L., J. F., R. A.
and w. E. Garner, and one daughter,
Mrs. L. T. Reagan. All of the chill
dren were with her in the last hours.
The sympathy of all this people are
extended to those bereaved by the
death of this good woman.

RutIedge Rutherford Sent to Europe

(HeraId Specially

opSS.thA|'
Chicago, Jan. 31.-Rutledge Ruther-
ford, Texas boy, born and reared in
the Lone Star State, has been sent to
Europe by the National Food Maya
zine, of which he is editor, to study
the food conditions abroad The agi-
tation over the high cost of living and
the difficulty experienced in enforc
ing the food laws in this country,
prompted the publishers of the maya
zine to send this editor on this inves-
LEGATION. Mr.. Rutherford's articles,
which will begin in the March issue of
the National Food Magazine, will con-
trast the food prices of Europe and
America, and explain as nearly as pos
sible the reason fore the general ad
vance of foods in all countries.
Mr.. Rutherford graduated from the
Masonic High School at Moscow, Tex
as, and from the High School at Pal
estine. In the latter place he is yet
familiarly known as "Friz," a name
by which he was dubbed by his friend
and schoolmate. Clarence Campbell.
After finishing high school he worked
for the Weekly Advocate, published by
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. c. Deming, and
later published the first daily news
paper, in the town, ''The Palestine
Daily Press" Selling out the Press
to the Advocate, Mr. Rutherford went
to Kansas City, where he was a re-
porter on the Kansas City Times.
Later he served on the editorial staff
of the st. Louis Post-Dispatch and the
Globe-Democrat After the Spanish
American war broke out he went to
Cuba for the Chicago Record. There
his unearthing of the meat scandals
caused him to be known as "embalmed
beef" Rutherford

PREJUDICE.

Curious to state, prejudice keeps
us out of more good things than does
lack of opportunity.
We often pass by an article of merit
because the price is low. The same
article at double the price would find
Us eager to try it. K C Baking Pow
der sells for one-third the price of the
Baking Powders controlled by the
Trust"
Yet K G is guaranteed the Best
Baking Powder at any price.
The ladies of this city who have
seen what K c Baking Powder will do
prefer it to any other. They are only
too glad to save their money and get
better article. It's the difference
between Trust" prices and those of
fair, honest competition.
A 25 ounce can of K c Baking
Powder for % cents,-and your money
returned if you don't like it better.
