ID SEND SUICIDES
  BODY TO HIS HOME
No Actual Motive of ". D. Lewis
 Act Is Found

The body of ". D. Lewis, who conl- mitted suicide at the Hotel Bronson yesterday morning by blowing his brains out, will be sent to his home in Uniontown, Pa, tonight. The local police received word from the Union town authorities this morning that the family wanted the remains sent home for intermert.
 , No New Facts Learned.
 Other than the fact that the dead man has been positively identified as w. D. Lewis, nothing further has bee, learned about him. Tom Palmer and Charles Halpern, his two com panions, say they know nothing about him except that his folks are we'll to do people in Pennsylvania. They both state that they know of no possible motive to cause him to take his own life. The three men have been fol- lowing the fairs all season and state that they have been unfortunate finan cially for the past five weeks.
 It is thought that behind the young
 mans rash act of yesterday is some deeper motive than has yet come to light. Hc was we'll dressed and his appearance indicated that he had not been suffering intensely before taking his life as his clothes were not dis arranged nor were his features dis torted as they would be had he killed himself if frenzied for the need Of morphine, as was suggested.
 In Lewis coat pocket was a letter sent him by some close friend. This letter stated that the writer had been arrested by the state police in Penn sylvania and advised Lewis to keep away from that locality for some time to come. It concluded by advising the recipient that "the stuff would be
 sent as soon as possible. The fact that implements such as are used by
 dope fiends," or agents who dis
 tribute dope" were found in Lewis l belongings and the letter telling of the
 arrest and advising him to keep ava y and concluding by saying that tn 9 stuff would be sent soon, may or may not have any significance.
 An acquaintance of Lewis in talking l to the police after the shooting yester- 1 day remarked that Lewis would not have done it had he been able to get l what he wanted.

ITEMS OF INTEREST TO WOMEN

| The addition of a little sugar to the water in which turnips are cooked will improve the flavor. If you have even a small back yard, you will save money in buying poul- i try for table use alive. The washing should be brought in as soon as dry, as clothes whip to pieces or rot in the sun. It is great mistake to fill the dishes on the invalid's tray too full. Also, do not crowd the tray.
 Putting a coat of varnish on the linoleum yearly will make it last for years and look bright and new.
 If white potatoes are inclined to turn black with cooking, try adding a few drops of vinegar to the water.
 A little syrup added to the baked beans will improve their flavor. Add 1t when they have finished baking.
 Brittle finger nails indicate a lack of oil; eat more olive oil and but ter, and rub vaseline every night on the nails.
 In pruning raspberries you should cut away all fruit-bearing canes as soon as they drop their leaves.
 It is best to give linens a long soaking before washing. If this method is followed. stains will wash out easily.
 If the bright parts of the kitchen cloth in vinegar and rub on the blackened parts.
 If the soup stick is thin, there is nothing that will add more richness of flavor than tomatoes and a good quantity of butter.
 A few drops of paraffin added to shoe blackening will impart a good polish to damp shoes and also help to preserve leather.
 The secret of the delicious omelet lies in the use of more yolks than whites. a little rich cream and a sea- soning of cheese.
 A good mixture to set color in cotton materials is one tablespoonful of turpentine, a handful of salt and a pail of cold water.
 Plaid crepe blouses are something new.
