81 PLUGGED
THE DOCTOR"
Herbert Heals Testified Victor Brown,
One of the Negro Defendants in
the Mohr Case, Admitted
Killing Dr. Mohr.

Providence, Jan. 26.--Herbert Heals,
brother of George w. Heals, the chauf-
| feur who has turned states evidence,
was called to the stand when court
opened yesterday in the trial of Mrs.
Elizabeth +. Mohr, G. Victor Brown and
Henry II. Spellman, charged with the
murder of DIR. c. Franklin Mohr. He
said he went to the Bristol Jail to see
his brother on Sept. and that Victor
Brown said to him: eyes, did it. We've
done the trick. | plugged the doctor
and Spellman plugged Miss Burger"
"Spellman nodded declared Mr.. Heal
is, "and said: Yes Brown asked me to
90 to see Mrs. Mohr to see if she would
help him. He said she promised him
lot of money and he asked me if /
thought there was any chance of get
ting it. / said No, boys, the best thing
is to tell the TRUTH"
Indications are that the case will not
go to the jury before next week.
On cross-examination by Attorney
Lewis, Heals said he decided to tell his
story after his brother, George, had been
grilled. He admitted he opened the con-
versation with Brown by saying, my
God. what have you been doingf" and
that then Brown said, 1--WE done it"
He admitted he did not go to Mrs. Mohr
to get help for Brown.
1T was none of my business" he de-
clared.
"And you didn't think it was any of
your business to tell this story till your
brother had been grilledT
That's right"
Joseph II. Clark, a handwriting ex-
pert, was introduced TO show that
Browns "alibi' and an order which he
gave to Herbert Heals were written by
the same person.

Get the Habit of
Drinking Hot Water
Before Breakfast
Says we can't look or feel right
with the system full
OF polsons.

Millions of folks battle internally now
instead of loading their system with
drugs. Whats an inside bathi' you
say. Well, it is guaranteed to perform
miracles, if you could believe these hot
water enthusiasts.
There are vast numbers of men and
women who, Immediately upon arising in
the morning, drink glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it. This is a very excellent
health measure. II is intended to flush
the stomach, liver, kidneys and the 30
feet of intestines of the previous days
waste, sour bile and indigestible mate
rial left over in the body, which If not
eliminated every day, become food for
the millions OF bacteria which infest the
bowels, the quick result is poisons and
toxins which are then absorbed into the
blood, causing headache bilious attacks,
foul breath, bad taste, colds, stomach
trouble, kidney misery, sleeplessness, inn
pure blood and all sorts of ailments.
People who feel good one day and bad
ly the next, but who simply cannot get
feeling right, are urged to obtain quar-
ter pound of limestone phosphate at the
drug store. This will cost very little but
is sufficient TO make anyone a real crank
on the subject of internal sanitation.
Just as soap and hot water act on the
skin, cleansing, sweetening and freshen-
ing. so limestone phosphate and hot wa |
ter act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels. 1t is vastly more important to /
battle on the inside than on the outside,
because the skin pores do not absorb i'm
purities into the blood, while the bowel
pores do.--Ady

Navy Had This Power, De-
clareS Lord Beres-
ford
IF STRICT BLOCKADE
HAD BEEN ENFORCED
,Unshackle the Marine Serv-
ice, He Urges - Com
mons to Debate Case

London. Jan. 26.-The demand OF the
press for a more stringent blockade is
reinforced by letter from Admiral
Lord Beresford OF Metemmeh and Cur.
raghmore. "The conviction is gaining
ground says Lord Beresford, that had
the navy been allowed TO act the war
would have been ended some months ago
The government have not dared to gov
ern. If an effective blockade had been
declared in August, 1914, no objection
could have been raised by international
law but there are difficulties now owing
to permissive and preferential agrea-
ments with neutrals. Owing to want of
decision and prompt action we are in a
hopeless muddle and an inextricable tan
gle. Unshackle the navy, however, and
the result will be apparent in few
weeks"
Lord Beresford in illustrating what he
terms the mistakes OF the government
says the report is current that the fleet
was ordered this month not to interfere
with German Americans bearing Amer
lean passports and that the effect of this
order will be to allow German reservists
once more to proceed to Germany.
when is this foolery to stopg" asks
Admiral Beresford, "Can anything be
more heart breaking to the men of the
fleet?"
The debate on the question of enforc-
ing q strieter blockade opens in the
House of Commons to-day and is being
awaited with keen interest in govern
ment circles, where it is felt there would
be no great opposition to the superces-
sion of the present orders in council by
the declaration of an actual blockade If
/ majority of the members Of the House
Of Commons We're convinced that it
would provide a better medium of
German trade than the pres
mt system. Lincoln's famous blockade
and American state CORE
spondence on the question are favorite
subjects of study at the foreign office

Says Rheumatics
Should Not Drink Whiskey
Overheats the Blood and Increases In
flammation in Joints and Muscles

Don't drink whiskey or any alcoholic bev-
erages unless you want TO increase the agony
OF rheumatism. Keep your feet dry, wear
WOODEN underwear. and drink plenty Of water
lemonade is better
This treatment helps, but If you really want
to get rid Of rheumatism with its painful dis
tress twisted and swollen joints and perpetual
agony, take one-half teaspoonful of Rheuma
once a day.
Rheumn conquers rheumatism and sciatica !;
It is the enemy of both. For over five years
throughout America it has been prescribed by
broad-minded physicians and has released thou
sands from agony pain and despair
Hundreds who thought they were crippled
for life are now leading useful lives and help
ing to support the family.
The Red Cross Pharmacy and druggists eg-
erywhere sell Rheuma for not more than so
cents a bottle. with the understanding that it
will drive every particle of rheumatic poison
from your system or money hack.-Adv.
