DEATH OF INFANT,

Night.

Ruth Eleanor, infant daughter Of Mr..

family residence, 712 North Twelfth

after week or ten days suffering
from pneumonia. The parents and
friends feel keenly the loss of their
little girl and have the sincere sym

in their bereavement.
The little girl was born September
"a. 1914. and was consequently a little
over Ave months old, and had become
a loved and interesting member OF the
household. While everything that ten

ended, leaving sorrow in another

that death is robbed Of It's sting in the

beautiful gardens OF another and
brighter land.
The arrangements for the funeral

Do You Know the Real Food
Value of Spaghetti?

When you talk about buying ten
cents or one dollars worth OF any
foodstuff. what do you mean by

must be nutrition. But do you keep
nutrition in mind when you buy the
family provisions? Let us see
Meat is probably your biggest item.
Yet no less an authority than DR..
Hutchinson. the dietitian, says that
meat is a dear food. Why? Because
we pay far too much for the amount
of nutrition that we secure. Meat

gastritis and stomach ulcers. 1t is In
teresting to note that he condemns
the use Of patent medicines as well
as of medical treatment for the stom-
ach, stating that he and his colleagues
have secured remarkable results by
the use of ordinary bfsurated magne-
STA, which by neutraltzing the acidity
of the, food, removes the source of the
trouble. He contends that 1t is as fool

tents of the stomach remain acid; re-
move the acidity, and there will be
no need for medicine-the inflamed
lining of the stomach will then heal
itself. Sufferers from acidity, sour
stomach or heartburn should get a

ed and admitted by the court and the
defense starts upon the introduction
Of its testimony in behalf Of the pris-
oner.
More than half the session yester-
day morning was taken by the intro
duction of Harvey Six as witness
for the state and the arguments for
and against his admission as wit
ness. Before the court rule6 on the
matter Attorney O'Harra Of Carthage
withdrew the witness on the part of
the state.
Judge Davis said that Adams coun-
ty should not censor Attorney O'Harra
for withdrawing the witness as Attor-
ney O'Harra in his estimation was I'M
usually square" in conducting a case
and if an attorney knew what he was
doing it was Attorney O'Harra. Judge
Davis paid a nice tribute to the attor-
ney from Carthage in all his dealings
in the case thus far.
There was general stir in the
court room when the defense called
Esther Resder, sweetheart and former
aancee Of the defendant to the stand.
Women craned their necks to get a
look at the girl who was betrothed to
the youth on trial for his life and it
was as quiet as death in the little
court room when the girltook the
oath and mounted the platform to
seat herself in the witness chair.
Leaning forward as il eager to catch
everything that was asked her by
Pfanschmidt's attorneys she replied
promptly and showed good knowledge
of Just what transpired on the Friday
night of the murder.
She testified that it was Rays dis
position to be jovial and that he was

Friday night. She said he wore a
khaki suit, leggins and red neck
tie. She said that he left her home
about 10 O'Clock but stayed in the
yard ten or fifteen minutes before
driving away.
When questioned about his conduct
on Sunday following the murder and
fire she testified that he seemed de-
pressed that morning and that he was
pale and shaking when she met him
at the ruins of the Pfanschmidt home.
She denied seeing him uncover the
buggy tracks but admitted in cross
examination that he might have done
a number of things out there which
she did not see him do.

Work Of itinerant.

zone hundred and fifty years ago
the Methodist dtinsrant began his
work in America; began to create our
church, to help build the republic and
assist In establishing Christ's king
dom in the world. The history of this
itinerant is full Of heroism and self
sacrifice, of achievement and victory
for righteousness. In the early heroic
days the superannuated preacher and
the effective preacher shared alike In
the modest support then allowed to
preachers and their families After
ward came a changed basis for the
superannuate. He was granted what
the church chose to give, the collec-
ton being regarded as benevolence
and its apportionment made on the
basis Of the supposed necessities In
each case. Today our church, acting
in increased generosity and larger JUS
tice declares that the claim to COM
Portable support inheres in the gospel
ministry; that this claim is not a
gratuity nor charity. and is not for
feited by retirement from active SER
vice.

now puts its retired minister upon
