Henry Salwaachter, 50 years old,
grave digger, continues to deny that
the grave of Clara Fischer in ST.
Stephens cemetery, FIT. Thomas, a
week ago. Arrested on a warrant
charging him with having disinter-
red a body. Salwaachter is in Jail
in default of $4,000 bond.
He will be given 3 preliminary
hearing within a few days. A pair
of mud-spotted khaki trousers, which
detectives say they found in his
room in the Three-Mile house, a mile
from the cemetery, may prove an i'm
portant link in the circumstantial
evidence which seems to implicate
the prisoner more strongly as time
goes on.
A number of pictures of women
clipped from newspapers and maya
zines, including the picture of a girl
whose hair has been clipped by an
assailant, also were found in his
room, detectives charge.
Salwaachter strongly denies that
he had anything to do with the grave

Prepares Own Coffin
Is Years Before End

HOLDEN, Mo.-When James A.
Whitsett, a merchant of this
place, died recently, his five chill
dren learned that he had COM
menced preparation for his death
over twenty years ago. The COT
: fin had been made from the wood
of a favorite walnut tree on his
. farm, and had been stored in a
local undertaker's shop for fiji
teen years. All the arrangements
for the funeral had been made
years ago, all expenses paid for,
and payments added as the cost
of living rose from year to year.
Whitsett left no will, but mere
~ letter containing five checks,
giving an equal amount of his
cash to each of his children. Five
deeds for his land were disposed
of in a like manner.
During his lifetime, so the chill
dren say, Whitsett had always ar
gued that death should be prepar-
ed for in the same methodical
manner as a business transaction.

CLUB NOTES.
Dear Doctor:

Dear Doctor:
 About two years ago I had an at tack of appendicitis and the doctors ordered me to go to the hospital at once for an operation, but as the acute attack had passed and they said might not have another for several months, I decided to write to you about it. I received your answer promptly and followed your instructions very closely with the re- suit that I have had no symptoms of the aiiment since and best of all, by following your advice I cured myself of chronic constipation, which you told mo at that time was the original cause Of appendicitis.
 My health has been fine since then and now I ask you to help my daugh- ter who suffers with goitre. It is not yet very large but Is quite embar- rassing to her and at times decidedly uncomfortable. The same doctors who wanted to operate on me told her that she must have 1t removed soon as 1t was growing and would be- come more serious. You wrote an article about goitre several months ago but I cannot find it. Will you please tell me how to treat her case?
 A S. (AnSWer). Since the article on goitre was published several months ago, we have had reports from over 200 cases and with only two excep- tons the cure was effected in less than SIX months. Some reported cures in six weeks but I advised them 10 continue the treatment and special diet for three months. The two cases that were not completely cured re- ported that the growth had been re- duced fully one-ha:f and there was no discomfort remaining.
 I am sending to you by mail the in structions referred to as they would be of interest to only a few although all are interested in knowing of tho cure and also of your recovery and freedom from appendicitis I am gIa d that you followed instructions close ly.
 Readers of this pupiication are at liberty to write for information per taining to health. Address all such communications to Dr. David 1T. Reeder or Home Health Club La Porte, Indiana, with at least 6 cents fin postage for reply.

Of course, there are a. great many other differences I is the general opinion among as tronomers that the central star is really a condensation knew or necIeus of the nebula and not merely a star which happens perchance to be wis ible along that line of sight while in reality a tren endous astronomic dis tance lies behind it and in no way systemically connected with it.
 Clear of the horizon now, we have in the eastern sky the great consteI- lation of Pegasus, the Flying Horse The three most brilliant stars of Pegasus and the brightest of the stars belonging to the neighborfng group of Andromeda form a square known as the Great Sqaure in Pegasus The brightest star of Pegasus called Markab, was once used by navigators in the finding of the longitude by method probably never used today : except perhaps under extraor dinary circumstances. In astrology this star was supposed to denote death from wounds or fire.

 Our map is rather poor in planets this month, for the first time in many. Only Venus and the almost in visible Uranus find places thereon But Venus attains it's maximum bril- liancy this month: for this planet, in manner somewhat similar to the Moon, yet not entirely the same has phases and waXes and waneS in brightness. Jupiter is In the process of changing from evening to mornin, star and is too near the Sun for ob- servation. Saturn also is similarly changing his position. Mars already is a morning star, and Mercury will be one during the last week Of the month.

BREAD PRICE PUT UP CENT
 BY DEALERS

Retail prices of bread in the ma jority of local stores are Il and 16 cents per small and large loaf, respec- lively. as 0 result of the increase in the price by the leading wholese le bakers, based on tho high cost Of materials and labor at this time, The cent raise was made known last Mon- day, but there are still number ct stores in the city who sell bread as the old prices. owing to the fact that they either buy their bread cheaper or are willing to stand a smaller profit.
 The Jewish bakers. however, have not yet reached a decision regarding the new price and are selling bread at the old prices. But it is the opin- ion they will also increase the price, since the same complaints of high cost of materials, etc., are the reasons
