A Psychologist recently affirmed
that bread and butter contain all the
elements of life.
The stress now coming upon the
country with respect to food can be
very much mitigated if people will
be content to eat only two or three
different articles at any one meal.
This also is the best prescription
against indigestion. Meat, for ex-
ample, is digested almost entirely
in the stomach. 1t is not so with
cereals. A man in this city was en-
tirely cured of indigestion by eat
ing meat on one day and vegetables
and fruits the next, for several
weeks.

that had gone, with all its passions
and its fires.
At the bank they soon discovered
a change in him; his smile was
gone; he grew haggard. One day he
telephoned to his father In Wash
ington that the doctor had told him
he had tuberculosis; he pleaded for
advice. The father hurried to New
York and found his son with the
woman in her apartments. They
had been married. The father saw
they were desperately in love. He
could not tage the boy away. At
last he gave him money, advising
him to go to Italy and seek a cure.
Together Porter Charlton and his
wife left America for the sunshine
Of Italy. and on the banks Of the
world famous Lake Como, in the
midst Of the most beautiful scenery
that Europe has to offer, they found
a villa.
But they quarreled. Her temper
could not be governed; foul names,
oaths and the talk Of sailors poured
from her lips, mary times each day.
About her past Porter Charlton had
known little: now he found her
more worldly wise and bespotted
than any man, perhaps, that he had

many times each day. She drew the
young man into her wild and eccen-
trio ways. They slept in the day
time; at night they remained in the
garden of the villa, scantily clad;
peasants saw them performing wild
dances or rolling in the grass.
They had few visitors and seemed
to care little about associating with
others. An exception, however, was
made in the case of Constantine Is-
polatoff, a handsome Russian who
was a frequent guest at the villa.
The Italian police-say that the Rus
sian was one of Mrs. Charlton's
closest friends, and hint at more.
On the night Of June the Charl-
tons quarreled again. For Charlton
the limit of his endurance was
reached; she was sitting on the
edge of her bed. He. with a mallte
which he had been using in repair
ing piece of furniture, struck her
on the head. After three blows she

In 1897 Mary Scott, in San Fran
cisco, became the wife Of Neville
Castle, lawyer. Castle lost his
fortune in litigation, and his wife,
luxury loving, ran up bills which
would have thrown him into bank
ruptcy but for friends. In 1900 she
went on the stage, in a play called
The Princess and the Butterfly"
This was at Stockton, Cal. and the
wrenching which she gave the
nerves Of her fellow players and the
stage force by her demands and die
tation on that opening night in JAN
uary are in the annals of the Pacific
coast stage world.
: Mary Scott continued her stage
career. Her eccentricities grew.
She wouldn't sleep under the covers
of her bed; at all hours of the night,
in the sleeping cars, she would
awaken members of the company
by calling to them Historically. One
of her pendants was to faint on the
train just as 1t was pulling into a
town. She fell in love with Law
renee Griffith, an actor in the COM
pany, and loved him with a wild,
desperate abandon. Her husband
secured a divorce from her, and
went to Alaska, where he is now
United States district attorney.
Mrs. Castle and Griffith quarreled
necessarily and violently. Together
they went to New York to appear
In vaudeville, but Griffith at last

y SThis was in 1905. Porter Charlton
was a high school boy in Omaha
hen. His father, Paul Charlton, an
Ultimate friend of William II. Taft
ffthey were members Of the same
class at Yale-was seeking an Off
cial position in Washington, and he
was appointed to the legal depart
ment of the bureau OF insular
affairs.
He went to Washington in 1907,
taking his son Porter with him.
Porter wanted to go into the
banking business; his father went
to Frank A. Vanderlip, president of
the National City bank, in Wall
street, and asked him to give his
son place. Vanderlip Immediately
took Porter in. That was December
Z, 1908. He became one of the most
promising clerks in the bank. He
was spirited, ambitious and wrote
verses.
Last August Mary Scott came to
New York; her love for William B.
Craig, lawyer, had turned to hate.
and murder was in her heart. Now
fate had brought them into the
same city, Mary Scott and Porter
rCharlton. On the afternoon Of Au-
quits 8, in the wonderfully beautiful
peacock alley" of the Waldorf-As-
toria hotel, Mary Scott met Walter
Craig.
"You will go back on me?" she
shouted, drawing a pitifully small,
silver plated revolver from her
gown. She fired the weapon at the
man; the bullet struck his fountain
pen and caused only slight injury.
She was arrested, but the case was
dropped
She established herself in a small
but exclusive hotel. One night in
January, 1910, Porter Charlton was
taken by friend to her apart
ments. Their paths had met at
last-he boy just looking out on
life; she woman who had seen so
much Of it that the eyes of her
mind and soul were tired.

On cross-examination Mrs. Moot

she did it openly. She said:
'The first time was on one New
