Glass of Hot Water
Before Breakfast
a Splendid Habit
Open sluices of the system each
morning and wash away the
poisonous, stagnant matter.

Those of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise;
splitting headache, stuffy from a cold
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid
stomach, lame back, can, instead,
both look and feel as fresh as daisy
always by washing the poisons and
toxins from the body with phosphated
hot water each morning.
We should drink, before breakfast
a glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in
it to flush from the stomach. liver.
kidneys and ten yards of bowels the
previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the
entire alimentary tract before putting
more food into the stomach.
The action of limestone phosphate
and hot water on an empty stomach
is wonderfully invigorating It cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast and
it is said to be but a little while until
the roses begin to appear in the
cheeks. A quarter pound of limestone
phosphate will cost very little at the
drug store, but is sufficient to make
anyone who is bothered with bilious
ness, constipation, stomach trouble or
rheumatism real enthusiast on the
subject Of internal sanitation. Try
it and you are assured that you will
look better and feel better in every
way shortly.

RUSH 8-HR. CASE
Unlikely Decision Will Be Rem
dered Before January 1.
But Back Wages VIII Be Paid
If Law Is Sustained.

Washington, Dec. 4.-The supreme
court was. formally asked today to
expedite hearings of the Missouri, Ok
lahoma and Gulf railroad case chosen
to determine constitutionality of the
Adamson act, passed in September
when a nationwide railroad strike
was imminent.
A motion cohcurred in by the rail-
roads to set the case For hearing
upon a day as early as may suit the
convenience of the court was pre-
scented personally in open court by
Solicitor General Davis of the depart
ment of justice. Such motions usually
are acted on a week after presentation.
The date of December Is was under
stood to be preferred by all counsel,
to enable adequate preparation for
arguments and filing of briefs. 1t
was believed certain that the court
would assign the arguments before
the holiday recess December %.
1t was regarded as possible but
very unlikely that a decision would
be rendered before the law becomes
effective January 1. A stipulation for
suspension of all litigation over the
AdamSon act, and for protection of
railroad employees financial interests
pending the courts decision in the
test case, was 1ncluQeQ IN the 1nOIlOn.
1t requires the railroad in all pending
suits attacking the act to keep
record of wages due employees on the
eight hour basis with provision for
their prompt payment or enforced
collection if the supreme court up
bonds the statute.
The stipulation also pledges the
railroads to join in expediting the
test case. A compact is signed by As
sistant Attorneys General G. Carroll
Todd and E. Marvin Underwood and
Special Assistant Frank Hagerman
for the government, and by Walker
D. Hines, committee chairman of the
railroads attorneys. and Arthur Miller
attorney for the Missouri, Oklahoma
and Gulf railroad.
A recital of proceedings in which
Federal Judge William C. Hook on
Novem Der % at Kansas City in the
test case declared the Adamson act
unconstitutional, null and void was
given in the motion
- The railroad brotherhoods were not
represented officially in the proceed
ingS today, nor as signatories to the
stipulation. but are entitled to have at
torneyS participate in the arguments,
altho such action is understood not
to be contemplated. In the pending
case Judge Hook dismissed the bill as
to the brotherhood chiefs who origin
ally were made defendants, leaving as
the only deIendant United states Dis
trict Attorney Francis NJ Wilson of

enjoined from enforcing the law The
suit was brought in the name of

MURDERED WIFE
tcontinned from Page One,

it on the bed without getting a drop
of blood on his Clothes" Lockwood
went on.
According to the evidence he was
as careful of that as he was in franz
ing his alibi.'..
The three wounds which crushed
Mrs. McDaniePs skull were described,
reference was made TO the testimony
of police sergeant that the blows were
left handed, struck from the front and
that Mcdaniel has been declared to be
left handed. He cited several murder
cases in which testimony had caused
the conviction of left handed men.
THE man who struck her down
was a man in whom she had conf
dence. whom she allowed to come into
her room without causing her to
shrek from fear" he said. "Oh, how
that confidence was betrayed. She
screamed only once ana it was choked
off, ending in Sob"
Who Came in Cellar Window?
"The evidence shows no one entered
the house thru that cellar window"
Lockwood said. Some shrewd, cum
ming man was inventing evidence
that's what all the testimony shows.
That's why the room was mussed up
and the furniture thrown around. No
robber ever entered a home. muir
dered a woman and left without loot
That's the rot of his defense
Inc special prosecutor went INTO
McDaniePs version of his whereabouts
before the murder was committed
you would not pay any attention to
an alibi like his from any other de-
PENDANT" Lockwood said Are you
going to believe that-such rot?'
The speaker used the word rot"
again in saying McDaniePs attorneys
probably would declare an enemy of
the accused man caused by his ACTIVE
ties as prosecutor committed the
crime.
Then he tried to put such a chunk
under the coroner's inquest that none
would be held. He tried to use his in
fluence as agent of the law to prevent
it. What about the hurried funeral ?"
Scream Fixed Time of Murder.
do you doubt there was a scream
at 1890 o'clock that night? Lockwood
asked the jury. Then he attacked the
defense theory that the noise had
been made by a cat or by woman
screaming while in a swing. He de-
clared the scream testimony fixed the
time of the crimes commission before
IL o'clock.
Just so surely as you believe that
was Mrs. McDaniePs scream. you must
convict this man of the murder of his
wife, the speaker declared And
Mcdaniel tells you he got home about
II o'clock Why does not he give US
the exact time?"
Lockwood laughed at the story of
E F. Gard that he saw Mrs. McDan-
ieI cross her bedroom window at 1870
o'clock.
