respective trade terms of phosphoric
acid, potash, and "ammoniates."
IN the commercial fertilizers phos-

calcium phosphate, which is bone
phosphate or rock phosphate, usually
treated with sulphuric acid to render

or salts of potassium, either sulphate
or chloride. and the "ammoniates," as

Motion Filed to Take Mrs. Pop
peItOn's Children Away.
Her Husband Already Has Filed
Suit for Divorce.

Another was added to the many do
nestle troubles of Mrs Mary Cauder.
formerly Mrs Mary PoppeIton. 607
North Kansas avenue, this morning
in the Shawnee county district court
when Hugh MacFarland probate
judge. filed a motion in the Cauder di-
vorce case for the court to place Mrs.
Cauder's Two three-year-old girls in u
home or institution. Judge MacFar-
land alleges that Mrs. Cauder is not a
fit person 10 have charge of the two
children.
The motion was heard by Judge
George H Whitcomb Immediately aft
er it was filed No decision was hand
ed down in the case, as the PoppeIton
wOman's present divorce case, where
in her husband. Henry Cauder, is ask
ing for decree, has not been decided.
Owing to this fact and the fact that
the two girls are not Cauder's chill
dren, Judge WhitcOmb did not make
decision.
Prior to her marriage to Cauder.
Mrs Poppelton was the mother of
four children. Two of these were
taken from her by the probate court.
when the court ruled that the Poppe1-
tons were not able to care for them.
Home Is Not Fit Place.
According to an investigation made
cations OF Judge MacFarIand. the
Cauder woman has been living with
the two little girls and a man, not her
husband, in one room in North To-
peka- Judge MacFarIand says the
place is squalid one and is not a fit
place for the two girls.
He alleged before Judge Whitcomb
this morning that the children were
being abused. The court ordered
physical investigate of the two little
ones by Dr. c. c. Luu, county physi-
clan.
In order that some definite ruling
can be made on the motion as soon as
possible. Judge WhitcOmb this morn
ing set the Cauder divorce case for ,
o clock Wednesday morning. Attor-
ney for the Cauder woman, w l.
Jamison, raised the question as to
whether or not the district court has
jurisdiction in the case, but Judge
MacFarland claims that if the motion
is thrown out of the district it will
be taken up in the probate court.
The POppeltOn woman is we'll
known around the court house. AT
one time she was sent to an institution
in the east for proper care of herself
and children. She left without notice,
officials say. When she and Cauder
appeared III probate court some time
ago for a marriage license. Judge
was compelled under the
law to issue them a license, but re-
fused to perform the wedding cere-
mOny.

DO THIS FIRST-Y0U!

You know, and every physician
knows, that when any sickness has
passed, whether it be throat trouble,
organic disturbances, contagious dis
eases, or even a severe cold, relapse
is feared, because sickness robs the
system of Natures resistance and
leaves it subject TO lingering germs.
Drugs never build up worn-out
body-only food can do that, and the
first thing to take after any sickness is
the concentrated, blood making oil
food in SCOTS Emulsion, which feeds
the tissues, benefits the blood and
strengthens both lungs and throat
Physicians prescribe SCOTS Emu-
sion after sickness. Nurses everywhere
advocate It. SCOTS is pure medicinal
food, without alcohol or drugs.
