OMAHA, Nebr., Aug. 2G.-Miss
Catherine Ford, 81, Santa Barbara,
Calf, fell to her death on the
sidewalk, from an eight story room
in which she was undergoing treat
ment for a nervous disorder, at a
hotel here today. =
Rose Cavalier, a nurse at st.
Francis hospital, Santa Barbara,
who had been treating Miss Ford,
said her patient had leaped from
the window to her death below.
The nurse was being held by po-
lice, however, pending an inuuest.
Miss Cavalier said she was bring
ing Miss Ford from Santa Barbara
to the home Of her brother, Gene
Ford, farmer, living near Indepen-
dence, Iowa.
The fact that the body was cold
when found led police to hold Miss
Cavalier. They believe Miss Ford,
if she 'leaped from the window,
mast have done so many hours be-
fore Miss Cavalleri reported the
tragedy.
DR.. r. C. Bruner, hotel physician,
however, denied police reports that
the body was cold when he reached
it.
The nurse was heart broken at
the accident. She said Miss Ford
had been a nervous patient at the
Santa Barbara hospital for two
months and had attempted once to
jump from the roof of the hospital
and also tried to starve herself.
This led her brother to send for
her to place her in an Iowa sani-
tarium.
Miss Cavalier said she rose at
5:45 a. IN. to take 7:10 train for
independence. She awoke her pa,
tient and started to take clothing
from a wardrobe to dress her.
AS she turned her back, Miss Ford
unlocked a screen and jumped The
nurse Immediately notified hotel
authorities, she said.
The two women came here in a
compartment from California and
Miss Cavalier told police that Miss
Ford was not out of her sight dur
ing the trip.
The body will be taken to Inde-
pendtnce Cor burial, Gene Ford, the
brother, told the United Press over
the long distance telephone.

A Varied Diet Is
 Best For Your  ' Health

"Eat a variety of foods and plenty of fats," is the latest advice of Dr.. William D. Richardson, Chicago. Dr. Richardson warns against food fad dism and tells us that in the United States at least, we need not worry about not getting enough vitamines. He says:
 : What is the best advice that a phy- sician could give the average man as a result of all this work of scientific men specializing in nutrition? In board, general terms the answer is sim ply this: That for the best develop ment of the human organism varied diet is desirable, such diet as would be afforded by the consumption of meat and fats, green leaves, fruits and vege- tables, cereals and dairy products.
 'The last word has not been spoken and will not be until we can produce certainly synthetic diet which will be highly satisfactory for mankind. It is best to follow the old rule. of nature, as indicated by instinctive normal taste and desire, and eat a considerable va- riety of foods. Beware of the false ad- vocate who insists on consuming too great proportion of food from any one source. Beware of. any adviser who insists that an unusual proportion of any one type of foed is beneficial. The varied diet is still the best dietetic practice and the best solution of the nutritional problem"
 An increasing sense of the importance of fats in nutrition has been developed during recent years. While it is we'll known that fats are synthesized in the body from carbohydrates such as starch and sugar, and while laboratory experi- ments show that fats can be success fully eliminated from the diet if carbo- hydrates are substituted for them, nev- ertheless, there seems to be an innate craving and demand for fats by the body.

Bake in a moderate oven about 15 min utes, until the egg is firm. | Mfncemeat For The Holidays Mincemeat is one of the preparations for Christmas which may be started early. In fact, mincemeat is improved by standing some time before using. The making of mincemeat entails some time and work but the home product is well worth the effort. By preparing a rather large quantity at one time, the total amount of time and work involved is not so great after all.
 To insure good keeping quantities, the ingredients for mincemeat should all be of good material.
 Recipes for mincemeat are the kind of things every family hands down for generation to generation. Each house. wife declares her recipe to be best and there may be much friendly competition as to who makes the best mince pies. All recipes are similar in their pre- paration and ingredients. If you wish a satisfactory recipe, try the following :

 The first may be supplied by fruit whole grain, cereal or bran. The second by eggs or milk and meat; the third by cereals, toast and butter. The i'm portant thing is to have a variety each day.
 We saw a man eating breakfast in a restaurant not long ago. His choice was double order of griddle cakes with butter and syrup and coffee. The cakes. butter and syrup all furnished fuel, but he had neither regulating nor building.
 There are many interesting and healthful breakfast combinations, espe- cially for this time of year.
 Apples are ripe for baking, stewing and sauce, grapefruit. are with us and there is long list of dried fruits.
 Cereal either hot or cold is a good filler and carries its share of valuable milk with it. Oatmeal and flakes are popular. For the main course, eggs hold first place, but they need not al ways be cooked the same. way.
 Replace toast with bran mullins eoc- casionally. These can be mixed the night before. Fill muffin pans with the batter, cover them with oiled paper and bake them the next morning.

Pork Dinner For Cold

What lover of good eating is there who has not smiled with appreciative sympathy at Charles Lambs little Chinese boy and his burnt pig nor thanked the fates for the carelessness which thus bestowed upon a grateful world that dinner of dinners-roast pig.
 And yet there are prejudiced folks who would have us believe pork un- wholesome, "'too fat' they complain, en- tirely forgetting the wondeful fuel value of fats in the dietary. All meats de- pend upon their protein and fat for their value as foods and it is due to the proportions in which these elements are contained that they are regarded as L1st suited for the summer or winter months Protein is essential for build- ing up and maintaining the body, fat for supplying heat and energy, so you un- derstand just why pork is the ideal cold weather meat.
 In Buying Pork
 Pork should be sweet smelling, the fat clear white and flesh good pinkish color.
 As to which cut to purchase, one must consider the menu at which the pork is to be served, the cost of the meat, the percentage one must allow for shrinkage and waste and how it is to be prepared for the table. To Serve With Pork With hot boiled ham, potatoes, apple sauce and some of the cabbage family. With baked ham, cider sauce, sweet potatoes. squash or spinach.
 With broiled ham for dinner, Drowned mashed potatoes, cold slaw and pan baked apples.
 With roasted fresh pork, apple sauce, potatoes or baked pumpkin, cold slaw or ladies cabbage.
 With young pig. apple sauce, hominy croquettes, pan baked potatoes, lima beans and cold slaw.
 With fat salt pork broiled, beans and broiled cabbage and apple sauce.
