WIFE LIVED IN
DREAD Of
PEACOCK

WHITE PLAINS, N. Y, May 6
G.N.S).-Centering all efforts on
the obtaining OF evidence of pre-.
meditation, authorities today
planned to question girl companions
Of Mrs. Dorothy Peacox to whose
killing and cremation her husband,
Earl Peaeox, has confessed.
Authorities expressed the belief
that by questioning Mrs. Peacox's
friends they can establish that she
lived in fear of her husband and
that her fears were well founded.
District Attorney Frank A. Coyne
was said to be particularly anxious
to question Miss Caroline Winter
who received and delivered letters
from Mrs. Peacox, and Miss Mar
garet Lord, another girl friend.
Mrs. Peacox lived in dread Of her
husbands weekend visits, accord
ing to Mrs. J. B. Nettles, mother
of Miss Lord.
Eugene Bussey, Baltimore college
youth who is being held as a ma
terial witness. was expected to seek
his release via the habeas corpus
route today. A show cause order
as to why q habeas corpus writ
should not be granted has already
been issued.
Miss Frances Newman, Peacox's
reputed sweetheart, is also held on
a material witness charge.

PORT Freedom
To OFFICIALS
PUZZLING

New complications In the con-
troversy over freedom OF the
ports" arising from reports that
members of Congress frequently
bring liquor into the United States
from abroad. developed at the
Treasury today.
A ghost slipped out of the musty
files in the nature OF regulations
signed by former Secretary of the
Treasury William G. McAdoo In
1918, which drastically restricted
the granting Of orders for expedi-
tious examination of baggage OF
travellers arriving from foreign
countries.
Under these regulations, techni.
cally still in effect, although not
observed owing to liberalization OF
the practice OF the Treasury, the
so-called 'expedites' were limited
to the following cases:
1. Those involving imperative
emergency, such as where a pas
senger was accompanying the body
of a deceased person, was seriously
i'll or was summoned home by news
of affliction or disaster.
2. To delegates to international
conventions in this country or those
returning from such conventions
abroad.
3. To Senators and Representa-
tives in Congress.
4. To women travelling alone.
Gradually the restrictions against
this form of courtesy were modi.
fled until they were issued by the
hundreds. The question Of curtail.
ment has been discussed within
the last month, but restrictions
were held inadvisable both by Gus.
toms collectors and the Treasury.
Assistant Secretary Of the Treas
ury Seymour Lowman declared
that unless Congress prohibited
free entry to American officials by
legislation there would be no
change in Treasury policy.

In telling of his condition &prior
to using it Mr.. East said / must
admit that / was surprised at the
action of this medicine. In fact l
could hardly realize that it had re-
lieved me of the trouble / had had
for two years. My stomach was in
a terrible condition, there were
times when / could not retain the
food had eaten. Often after going
to bed I would get deathly sick and
vomit up everything had eaten
for dinner. The pains in my chest
and also around the heart smothered
me. My legs felt weak and at
night l would wake up in a nervous
sweat / would get UP with bad
taste in my mouth, tongue was
coated and | was chronically con-
stipated. The medicine | used gave
me no relief to speak of. I was
continually belching up sour bile
and my stomach seemed to be full
of gas. saw so much in the
papers about MILLERS HERB EX-
TRACT that I made up my mind
to give it a trial and l must admit
1t proved to be even better than l
expected. l have not had any of
those sick spells since began using
this medicine. Food 1 eat now
agrees with me, bowels more regu-
lar and l sleep sound at night. In
short / feel better in every way
than I have for a long time and l
don't hesitate to give this medicine
full credit for the wonderful i'm
provement in my health. MILLERS
HERB EXTRACT is worthy of the
highest praise and 1, for one. can
recommend it very high.
You don't need any pills with
medicine: it is a real medicine
within itself, and guaranteed to
give results. A medicine you can
take three or four bottles without
seeing any results is not much
medicine. See the special repre-

RUPTURE IS
NOT A TEAR
NO BREAK TO HEAL

Rupture is not tear, but purely mus
cular weakness in the abdominal wall.
Trusses merely brace these muscles but do
not strengthen them-on the contrary, the
gouging of the ordinary truss pad often
increases this weakness as it tends to shut
off circulation of the blood.
STUART'S ADHESIF PLAPAO-PADS
are entirely different-being mechanicO-
chemico applicators made self adhesive
purposely to keep the muscle-tonic called
"Plapao" continuously applied to the af-
fected parts. and to minimize danger Of
slipping and painful friction. The adhesive
fabric is soft as velvet, and clings to the
body without straps, buckles or springs.
Easy to Observation-Disclosures.
Awarded Gold Medal, Rome, Grand Prix,
Paris, Honorable Mention, Panama Pacific
Exposition, San Francisco, etc. For almost
. quarter century stacks of sworn
testimonials from many different countries
report success without delay from work.
The endermatic effect of the Plapao and
the utilization of 'plaster therapy" tend
toward natural process of recovery, after
Sckiok no further atse for a truss.
Stop wasting your time and money on
old-fashioned devices. Learn how to close
the hernial opening as nature intended, SO
the rupture can't come down. Send no
