 COMMENCED TODAY.
Identity Was Revealed by Locket With
 His Initials.

All is in readiness for the opening this morning at Springfield of the trial of Bertram G. Spencer, formerly of Lebanon, who must answer to the charge of murdering Miss Martha c. Blackstone, Springfield school teacher. The killing took place at the home of a friend where Miss Black stone was a guest, March 31, 1910. but
 in order that the prisoner might be watched by .alienists for the defense for insanity of a Dr. JekXll and MT. hyde' type.
 Spencer has admitted to the police that he was responsible for a series of hoIdups and robberies which for near l,5 two years kept the city almost panic stricken. He was known among his working young man. About three years ago. while employed as a rail read man, Spencer fell in love with an attractive young woman from highly respected family and not long after they were married and went to house keeping. A baby was born. and the couple were to all outward appearances happy and devoted
 Yet during all this time Spencer. ac- cording to his statement to the police was terrorizing the city by bold rob berries Most of these were committed in the early evening, so that by s o'clock he might be at home with his little family.
 On the night of March 31. 1910. Miss Blackstone. the school teacher was visiting at the home of Miss Harriet Dew in Springfield when a man enter ed the house ard shot both women. Miss Blackstone was killed. but Miss Dow was only slightly injured After the police had exhausted every effort to run down the murderer and had about lost hope q locket which had been found in the yard of one of the homes robbed some months before was turned over to them. The locket bore the initials ''B. c. s. and by coinci- dence the only name in the Springfield director with those initials was Der tram G.. Spencer Pictures in the locket were identified as those of his wife and relative. and with that in formation Spencer was arrested He admitted, the police say every crime laid at his door and told the remark able story of his dual personality.
 Justice John C. Crosby will preside at the trial that opens today and of such importance is it considered that Attorney General James H. Swift will take an active part in the proceedings Two hundred and thirty-six taIesmen have been summoned and from these the jury will be chosen

Do YouEnj0yYour Meals
One of the Most important Questions to Consider in the Search for
 Happiness and Health.

The burning question to you is, Are you setting out of life all the pleasure and the health you are entitled to 2" If not, why not2
 No matter whether every organ and member of your body is in q sound state of health and strength, if your stomach is in any way disordered, you are not going to he yourself" You are going to be a worried, out-of- sorts, nervous or suilen individual, whose ac- tions will reflect your condition inside and people will naturally avoid you.
 The world wants to smile and be cheerful. and unless you are cheerful and smile at least, occasionally. you will have few friends. fewer oppor- tunities. no success, and you will go down in defeat-defeate ted by dyspepsia and a bad stomacn.
 good and sthorough digestion has quick, wonderful reaction upon the brain. You must have noticed it many times. for the brain and stomach are a $ intima 1ely conn a $ a needle and its thread, one can hardly be used to advantage without the other. If your stomach is slow and lazy in digesting your food, it will produce at once a slow. lazy and cloudy influence upon your brain. Mark it. If your stomach mas absolutely quit work, and fermen- tarion is poisoning your vitals as a re- suit, surely your brain is going to be sluggish and spondingly depressed. No one need tell you that.
 But why continue to suffer all the nliseries and torments that a disor- dered stomach brings You2
 If your stomach can not digest Nour food. what will? Where's the relief? Where's the cure2
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the relief and the cure. Why Because. as all stomach troubles arise from in digestion and because one ingredient of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is able to thoroughly and completely digest 5000 grains of any kind of food doesn't it stand to reason that these little Dys- pepsia Tablets are going to digest all the food and whatever food you put into your stomach Science nowadays can digest food without having to use the stomach for il. And Stuart's DyS- scientific discovery. They digest and digest thoroughly and we'll anything and everything you eat
 So, if your stomac ch refuses to work or can't work and you suffer from eructations, bloat, brash, fermentation, irritation, indigestion, or dyspepsia of whatever form, just take one or two of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, and see the difference. It doesn't cost you much to prove it. Then you can eat all you want, what you want, whenever you can look the whole world in the face with a beaming eye and you will have cheerful spirit. q plea sant face, a vigorous body and a clear mind and memory and everything will look and taste delicious to you. That's life.
