. few hours after Dr. Waite married Miss Clara Peck he complained to her about the money settlement made onp him. He had been promised $50, 900 but his wife's father instead of giv- ing him g lump sum. provided pay ments of $500 monthly. Arriving in this city the couple found awaiting them an expensively furnished apart ment. gift of the murdered man. A gift of $3.0O0 was received from a maiden aunt of Mrs. Waite, Miss Peck living at a hotel here. Dr. Waite urged Miss Peck to give him more money and subsequently the dentist got $30,000 from her which he said he would invest.
 On September 26. 1914, Dr. Waite invited his father-in-law to come from Grand Rapids to live with him here. and few days after. the dehtist began q study of deadly germ dis eases. He visited specialist on bac- teriology and bought many books on the subject. About this time Dr..

Waite's Mother on Point of Death.
 Grand Rapids, Mich, May 24.- Grief over the approaching execution of her son, pr. Arthur Warren Waite may cause the death of Mrs. Warren Waite. The aged mother is critically i'll at her home here. Physicians who have been attending her almost con- stantly for week expect that she will be unable to survive the news of the denttst's end.
 Following the death of her hus- band, which was attributed to a broken heart over his sons actions, Mrs. Waite has been gradually falling. In her rational moments she pra ss that her sons life may be spared. and she still clings to the idea that some circumstances will intervene to prevent his execution.
 It is understood that Waite's body will be returned here and buried be- side that of his father.

Some painstaking food expert has
said that if each family in the United
States discards a slice of bread every
day the total would mount up 10 a
million loaves a day, which we can
see by simple matter Of multiplied
ton would mean three hundred and
sixty five million loaves in year.
Few of us would feel any special
qualm about throwing away the
equivalent OF a slice of bread a day.
Yet any one Of US would shudder at
the thought of a million loaves Of
bread wasted every day.
OF course most Of us do not throw
away untouched slices Of bread
However, many of US are apparently
careless enough 10 do this. Not
long ago an energetic woman asked
permission TO look through the
refuse of small apartment house
and she found several whole lOaves
of bread not even removed from
their wrappings that had been
thrown away by various families be-
cause they had been permitted TO
grow stale Lest we blame the rich
for wastefulness and think that il

works among the poorest Of New
