80 makes some valuable sugges-

cent. OF the present retail price of food
stufrs can be saved through the merg-
ing of wholesale and retail business

stores or chain stores. says the Med!
cal Review OF Reviews.
If this reduction could be effected a
higher standard of food could be pur-
chased for the Same expenditure OF

standard OF food could be secured at a

cheers by the crowd in the courtroom.
The testimony of Adelbert Clark.
the confessed slayer Of Lawrence Bar,
president Of a Centralia savings bank,
who was killed while Clark tried to
rob the bank, implicated DR.. johnson
In the crime. but the confessed muir
derer's testimony was disproved by so
many witnesses that the jury was led
to discuss the matter Of oensuring the
state for bringing the case against
Johnson without stronger evidence
than Clark's confession.
Judge Rice sentenced Adelbert B.
Clark to the penitentiary for life. He
had pleaded guilty to second degree
murder.

the same old farmer exists yet, but
in ever thinning ranks, and always

the glazed black valise and this is
