My wife tells me I'd better stop taking
Trutona as our grocery bill has almost

Gently. Mr.. BLY, is highly enthused over
the work of Trutona in his case and he
tells a story that will convince even the
most skeptical.
For the past two years." he continued,
I've suffered such severe kidney pains
IN my back that I'd almost collapse at
times Why, I don't believe the cut or
knife could have hurt me worse than
those pains. At different periods, during
the two years, i've been laid up for several
days at a time, and even so long as
month. Ny appetite was very poor. I'd
just mince over things at meal and
then get up from the table.
"One day a friend Of mine overheard
me speaking of my troubles and be told
me- of several persons whom be personal
" knew that had gotten wonderful re-
suits from Trutona. I've nearly finished
my second bottle now and-welL, you
never saw a man have such an appetite
as mine. Why, eat like starved hound.
We had a chicken dinner Thanksgiving
aud a lot of other things my wife hxed.
but there wasn't enough left over to make
q square meal for a mosquito. I ten you.

terest has been aroused here by the an
nouncement that the private diary and
letters of Admiral Won Pohl, at one time

man high seas feet, are about to be

great antagonist of Admiral Won Tirpitz

Tirpitz, in a memorandum which he sub
mitted to the former kaiser. the aim
of our naval preparations and policy has
been to give battle to the British. We
have in battle the greatest chances Of
success"
Admiral Won Tlrpitz said that the
German fleet should deliver battle to
the British as near as possible to Helt-
goland, but when the former kaiser asked
him how the British were to lie induceG
to come there, Admiral Won Tirpitz was
unable to offer any plan. The former
kaiser thereupOn at once issued an or
der to all naval officers telling them that
they should not attack until they re
ceived his personal order 10 do so
The documents also reveal that ut Il
great conference of his civil. military
and naval advisers on the question o.
the beginning of the Zeppelin campaign
against England, the former kaiser re-
fused to sanction the bombqrdment OF

admiralty official who was an expert
musician.

Richard Paget, stripped to the waist, was

PHONE WEDDING
HELD LEGAL, BUT
BRIDE HANGS UP
Supposed Spurious Pastor and
Other Incidents Mars Young
WOnl1n's Adventure.

DETROIT, Feb. AFTER diving deep
into all the statutes relating to the ques-
ton of matrimony-when 1t is and when
it isn't, and why-Allan P. Cox and Seth
j. Wicker, assistant prosecutors, came
up with the pronouncemAnt that Miss
Louise Cody and Carl A. Alderman are
man and wife.
Miss Cody, 1t will be remembered, is
the trusting young woman who knew
that marriages performed over the tele
phone were legar'-because she had seen
it done in the movies-but who didn't
know, when she and Mr.. Alderman
crowded into a single phone booth at the
Hotel Statler for the solemn ceremony,
that gentleman on the other end of the
line was not a member Of the clergy.
But as long as she thought he was,
says Messrs. Cox and Wicker, the mar
riage" must stand-although a common
law affair They speak learnedly on the
reasons for this. The two-day search
through musty statutes fortified them
well.
AND BRIDEGROOM
GOES FREE.
And Mr.. Ackerman-whose idea. he
says, was to follow the trial marriage by
real one, If Miss Cody pleased him
can not be prosecuted they set forth.
But, assert the prosecutors, they can
prosecute IldIIJ GOlueus VINO pSAlOA ulcu
the ceremony" according to the police
report Of Ackerman's confession. And to
get the basis for this prosecution, the
prosecutors delved deep and far
Mr.. Golden's few solemn words. if he
is the guilty person, constitute a high
misdemeanor, they say, with punish
ment of a years imprisonment. a $50 to
$500 fine. or both, attached. Therefore
warrant for Golden has been recon-
mended.
Mr. Golden denies that he was the
pastor" He was to have been wit
ness, he admits, but says that is all. Mr..
Golden, who is now being held, volun-
teered also some immaterisl, but not IN
interesting information about himself. He
was employed in the Statler cloakroom,
he says, aud slept there nights on the
chairs because he owed his iandlady $50
room rent aud was afraid to go home.
OF COURSE THERE
MUST BE DIVORCE.
Mr. Alderman says Golden was at the
Recreation building when he asked Miss
Cody If she took Mr.. Alderman for better
or for worse.
AS for Miss Cody hat was. Mrs. Acker-
man that is, she says she will start inn
mediately suit for divorce.
The prosecutors sympathize with her
in this determination, and will ask the
Detroit Bar association and the Legal
Aid bureau TO help her unloose the bonds
that tied her to MIR. Alderman only Il
week after she met him at the Statler's
Christmas dance for its employees.
Miss Cody is certain she got the wrong
number.

DECLINE PERMIT TO
STREET CARNIVAL
Commission Heeds Request
of Citizens on Grounds
Show Is ValueIess

Application Of a street carnival COM
pany to give its show in Birmingham was
refused yesterday.
Merchants and citizens asked the com
missioners to decline to issue the neces-
sary permit.
1t was stated that the usual rum OF
carnivals have shows of such poor or
der, so mediocre. inane and valueless from
every standpoint that it is waste OF
money to see them, Also the cotn~
sioners were told that the stalls whe'e
the carnivals have things for sale are ~
poorly equipped with stock that the best
they have to offer can be bought for
half the money in any of the cheap
stores catering to an INDECENT trade
Noise, blocking of traffic, bringing IN
desirable people into the city ana other
reasons were advanced. The whole beng
combined in the assertion that nothlns
the usual carnival has to offer these days
is worth the money
So the commissioners refused to gram
a hermit.
