POISONED BLOOD.
So many different things contribute
to poison the blood and the effect Is
SO startling that the sufferer becomes
panic-stricken and is led to use harm

according to directions.
Don't take anything else. Poisoned
blood is bad enough without running
your bones, joints, teeth and vitals
with minerals. S. 8. s so stimulates
cellular activity that they reject all
poisonous influences -and select only
those materials in the blood that make
healthy tissue. This is why its assist
ance toward recovery is so noticeable
and at times remarkable.
S. 5. S. is welcome to the weak
est stomach and is assimilated just
as readily as the most nutritious food

III Ordef tnat you may naNe>a clear Idea
OF 1t all, 1t IS necessary to remind you that
Frank had hurried Mrs. White out of the
factory, at about l o'clock; that Conlev had
gone OH to his home; that Frank went out
to his, and that Albert Mcknight swears
Frank remained only a few minutes, ate
nothing, and hurried back toward the city
Albert told this to the white men he worked
with, at the Beck, Gregg Hardware Com
pany, before his 2r&te qcas arrested. It seems
that this information, given by the cooks
husband, was one of the first independent
pointers to Frank as the guilty man-in-
dependent of the circumstances Immediately
surrounding the crime.
The cook refused to talk to the detectives;
but after these black sheep had been igno-
miniously sent away, the colored lady dried
her eyes, composed her rumpled feelings, and
spoke as follows:
"Mr. Frank came for dinner, about half
past one, but Mr.. Frank did not eat any
dinner, and left in about ten minutes after
he got there.
''Mr. Frank came back to the house at
seven o'clock that night.
Sunday morning [ got there about eight
o'clock, and there was an automobile stand
ing in front of the house, but [ didn't paw
any attention to it. ct was the automobile
of the two police officers.)
II called them down to breakfast about
half-past eight, and I found out that Mr.
Frank was gone. (The policemen had car
ried him with them in their carr
Il did not hear them say anything at the
breakfast table. After dinner, [ understood
them to say that Mr.. Frank and girl were
caught at the office Saturday. [ don't know
who said it. Mrs Frank, Mr. Selig, Mrs.
Sehg, and Mr.. Frank were standing there
talking, after dinner, when they said it.
understood them to sag 1t aCas q Jeac girl y
This very remarkable statement of the
cook would seem to prove two things first,
that she was not making up a tale, nor re-
peating one that her husband had made;
and, second, that the family of Frank were
bandying, to and fro, the words Jew and
"Gnetile," and the cook caught the word
Jew, and got it wrong.
They were no doubt corversing in low
tones, and the colored lady was probably
listening at the key hole. The mysterious
automobile, the unusual absence of Frank
from Sunday breakfast, and the general
stir in the family, could not have failed to
arouse the colored lady's curiosity: hence
her key-hole endeavors to acquire knowl-
edge.
Slaton says that the cook does not tell
where she was, when she overheard the din
ing room talk. Eavesdroppers are strangely
reticent on such matters.
The cook proceeds: con Tuesday Mr.
Frank says to me, It's mighty bad, NIinola;
| might have to go to Jail about this girl
and I don't know thing about it.
If the cooks husband invented this, he
is a most extraordinary inventor.
The cook proceeds: "Sunday, Miss Lu-
Gle Mrs. Frank said to Mrs. Selig Cher
mother) that Mr.. Frank didn't rest so good
Saturday night; she said he was drunk, and
wouldn't let her sleep with him.---She slept
on rug on the floor"
See what vivid picture can be drawn by
