STATE PROBE LOOMS
IN CASE Of HE|RESS
HELD BY GUARDIAN

BOSTON, Nov. 15.-State probe
Of the confinement of Dorothy Cor
don, heiress, in the Mclean insane
hospital, while she is alleged to
have been sane, is expected to be
formally requested today by rela-
tives of the girl who are fighting
to free her.
s@-4 DR.. George NJ. Kline, head of the
state department Of mental disease,
is known to be quietly investigating
the case for the information Of his
( department. No formal investiga-
-fion of a public nature will be made,
however, unless the litigants or the
court request it, he said.
sri John Gardiner, is seeking to have
William F. Jardine, the girls guar
dian, removed on the grounds that
he is unfit.
Attorneys for Gardiner specifically
! charged that Jardine "railroaded"
the girl into the asylum when he
found he would lose control of her
fortune when she became of age.
Under examination Jardine admit
7ted again that Dorothy Gordon was
sane when he placed her in the
asylum and that few weeks later
he visited her and found her tied
to her bed. He said he made no
complaint because he thought it
was for her good.
~ Jardine explained that the girl
was restrained so that her nurse
might attend to naother patient.
s. ''You haven't fulfilled your duty
Ito a dog" Attorney Sheehan, coun-
sci for Gardiner, shouted at Jardine
: when the latter professed ignorance
of what treatment the girl was
given at the asylum.
Jardine said he placed the girl
in the asylum because it would take
. too many nurses to care for her at
his home, where Miss Gordon was
paying $50 a month for room she
never occupied. He admitted at the
: same time that he was paying all
costs Of her treatment from the
: girls money.

Lack ofAppetite
When Due to indigestion Acid, Sour,
Eloated Stomach, Is Restored By
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet
After Meals

When there is indigestion and the stomach
does not seem to relish food it is a great
mistake to starve or to use stimulants ID
force appetite. The best way is to woo the
stomach back to health by giving it the help
it needs, the alkaline effect that arrests
acidity prevents gassiness, belching, sour
risings, flatulence, pressure that seems to
crowd the heart and such distresses due to
indigestion. Chew one or two OF the large,
white tablets after eating, no water needed,
and the stomach settles down to restful
digestion, you feel eased and comfortable
and you get the good of food. You now
tackle pie cheese, pickles, sausage or any,
thing you like without fear, as YOU have the
means to prevent the distresses arising from
indigestion. Get a 60-cent box of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets today of any druggist.
