American chestnut is just little smaller

grcnt; the protein, fat, sugar and
starch elements give this nut a promi-

chestnut Is roasted, boiled, steamed, and
Is also conserved in sirup; the large
Spanish chestnut is used for this latter
purpose.
In various parts of Europe the chest

MYSTERY STORY
BY PHILIP FRANCIS NOwLAN
Yesterdays Mystery Solution

TN THE case of THE Red Sweater"
j Harvey Hunts scientific knowledge
enabled him to sec the flaw in the false
testimony of the farmer, Jackson
Grimes.
Grimes had testified that there had
been Just light enough for him to note
that the woman wore a light blue XII
mono. This she admitted to be the
truth. Therefore. he argued. he couldn't
have been mistaken about the color Of
the sweater, which he was positive was
red.
1t is n scientific fact. however. that
the color Of red cannot be distinguished
In n light which is barely strong enough
to reveal the color blue.
Hunt knew from this that the man
could not have distinguished the color
Of TIE sweater. The emphasis of his
str temt mt that he could, under the cir
cumrtances, could only indicate that
he was lying deliberately.
AS result of Hunts explanation,
suspicion turned upon him, and he was
arrested. a week later, concealed in
Grimes own house, the sheriff found
the red sweater with a bloody sleeve
that convicted him.
