Lowly Doughnut Now
 Becomes Fashionable

Palm Beach, Fla. Feb. 10 R)- The lowly doughnut has come into It's own in fashionable Palm Beach society and is enjoying a great popu- larity.
 Hostesses are including the doughnut in afternoon tea menus. A good size, which means past the dainty measurement, dropped in hot fat, cooked to honey beige color and then sprinkled generously with sugar, the doughnut is especially popular with men guests.
 Explanation of the doughnut's success among the wealthy is found in the fact one gets weary of the complicated dishes continually served. Another favorite dish is offered at current country breakfast parties-fried apples with sausage.

SANDING ISSUES

 can nlrin&

Nanagua. Nicaragua, Feb. 10 R -dsneFal Augustine Sandino. rebel leader. has defled the American marines to join battle with him.
 Writing to the chief Nicaraguan authorities in the Matagalpa district, sandino said he would be delighted to met the marines in the hills around Matagalpa when blood will how. He protested against the "cowardly actions of the marine" in Nusva Segovia. This criticism was thought to be in objection to the maFines' extensive bombing opera tions from airplanes which had made several strongholds of the rebels in the Nueva segovia district untenable.
 Various advices received here to- day placed tho number of men un- der Sandino from 100 to 500.
 Some lines of communication be- tween Managua and Matagalpa were cut It was suggested that this was done by Sandino, who is not anxious to have his whereabouts definitely known.
 The lltest advices received here. however. said the rebel leader was in Cuatro Esquinas, small village southeast of Matagalpa. In the last few days he has worked from north- west to Matagalpa, which is the center of . rich coffee growing dis trict, toward the south. He is per- fe.tly familiar with the topography AR thAk Aiutv3ak fn3nnd fon- eral Aoncada in that section almost year ago when Moncada was head of the liberal forces warning against tho conservative Diaz government.
 These advices place the number of Sandino followers at 200. They arc mounted on fast horses and travel at night in order to evade scouting planes lowering over the district daily.
 galpa yesterday said they had not seen Sandino. This strengthened the belief that he gets under heavy cover during the day. The rebel leader is thought to be headed for Muy Muy. about 50 miles to the south of Matagalpa and near the Rio Grande.
 Foreigners arriving from Matagal- pa said tho recent arrival of Sandino near there caused anxiety because he was believed to have 500 men with him. At that time there were only 50 marines in Matagalpa, but today there are more than 250 and 1t Is believed this insures ample pro- tection.
 Marine patrols occupied San Ra- fael Del Norte, northwest of Mata- galpa. fandino was there last Sat- urday according to Carleton Beals, representative of the Nation" g weekly magazine published in New York. Beals. who arrived here. said he had spent i've hours with San dino.
 Beals asserted Sandino had about 100 well-armed and mounted fol- lowers and claimed to have 90 ma chine guns. Beals came into Nic- aragua from Honduras travelling through Nueva Segovia, scene of the most severe battles between marines and rebels. Beals said sandino furnished him with . guard of 90 men for the last half of his journey from the border. The journey was made on horseback under the guid. ancs of Indians who sympathiSe with Sandino.

simple laxative herb with pepSin.
In 1892 he decided to use this for
mula in the manufacture of a
medicine to be known as DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup PepSin, and in that
year his prescription was first
placed on the market.
The preparation Immediately
had as great a success in the drug
