CONNECTICUT WAS ONCE QUONOKTACUT
Results Would Be Terrible if Old
 Names Were Restored

Washington, D. C., Nov 6. - If the United States were to adopt the recent European practice of reViVing old place names such as Oslo for Chrstiania, Nldaros for Trondj djhcm. Helsinki for Helsingtors, WarszaWa for Warsaw. and Praha for Prague, the roster of the 4S states would vary in many cases, says bulletin from the Washington, D. C., head quarters of the National Geographic Society.
 Nineteen states have different original Indian names they could go back to: Alibamu. Arizonac, Quonaktacut, E-dah-hoe Illini, Ayuhba 0owa). kanza, Kentake Massawadschuasch (Massachusetts), Mishigamaw (Michigan), Missisipi, Missiuri, Ohionhiio, Tanasee, TeXia, Ute, Mishkonsing. Mcheuwomink (Wyoming), Akansea.
 Restoration of old names would require Delaware to revert to De la Warr. the name selected in honor of Lord de la Warr. New York was named TOT lile Duhc Ol olh, but if origins were 10 be pushed back as far as possible the Empire State must revive the old English form, becoming New Eurewic.
 Revival Of an historic name, such as that of Lwow for Lemberg in Poland. would restore Vert Mont in honor of the French, Roode Eylandt in respect to Dutch explorers, and Spanish Conquistadores.
 Illinois serves as an example of states whose present names are pit falls to the unwary. Persons not familiar with the French adoption of the original Indian tribe name. pronounce the last syllable noise George Washington, 1t is said, called the Illinois country Black Island be- cause he thought the French spelled it He Noir
 States whose names would be un- changed by a drive to return to original forms are: California, Colo rado, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana Maine, Maryland, Minne- sota. Montana Nebraska. Nevara, New Hampshire New Jersey, New | Mexico, North Carolina, North Da- kota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Nir- ginia, Washington, and West Vir- | ginia.

crime in his well-appointed office,' burned the body with gasoline and abandoned it in a ditch. The horror of the crime caused sensation and the long trial was full of dramatic incidents.
 Murdered for Debt
 The prosecution was able to prove that Mestorino owed Tru- pheme a considerable sum of money and the motive of his crime was to clear himself and continue to live in the comfort which he and his wife enjoyed.
 Mestorino tried to mitigate his act by laying it to jealousy over a lCve affair with his wifes younger and pretty sister, Mile, CharnauX. He hoped to get a lignt sentence on the plea of "crime ot passion" which so often moves French jurics to leniency. Mmc. Mcstorino dra- matically forsavc her sister and de- clarcd that she would take back her husband when he was free
 The police, however, were able to prove 10 the satisfaction of the jury that this aspect of the de- tense was all frameup. and that both women had gone to this ex- treme to save the prisoner.
 Mestorina escaped the gullo- tine. but was sentenced to life inn prisonment, which in Franco means manual labor in Devils Is- land.
 Wife to Share Hardships
 When the jurys verdict was heard, Mime, Mestorino, who had been a conspicuous figure in the courtroom. openly vowed that she would follow her husband 10 French Guiana and share his suf- ferlngs Among other hardened criminals, he ;s now on bis way to Devils Island in convict ship and his wife. who is pretty and attractive, is preparing to follow him.
 Husband and wife must live in separate colonies on the island. They will sec very little, if any thing, of each other, but if Mes torino's behavior is exemplary during the next Is to 20 wears they may then be allowed to live together.

prove that pie may be eaten pro-

Heretofore" Miss Dahnke said,
1.-THE apple pie belt of the world
has lain chiefly above the Mason

its distinctive dishes, as well as the
north. Cheese is a national dish,
discovered in the south for it's true
worth.
with all its aristocracy of foods,
the south can learn about cheese
from the north; cheese not only as
a condiment, but also as a food and
necessary adjunct to every course.

MYSTERY VAMPIRE
TO BE HERE MONDAY

"Dracula," the vampire mystery
play that was the outstanding dra-
matte success in New York the past
season at the Fulton and now in
its fourth year in England, is to be
the attraction at English's Oct. IA,
Is and Is.
The play is founded on Bran
Stoker's novel of the same name
a famous novel that has thrilled
two generations of readers with the
~indescribable horror of its story, and
it is safe to say that the play is
the most weird and spine-creeping
drama ever presented to an audi
ence.
It differs from all other thrillerS
In that 1t deals with the super
natural and consequently there Is
no awkward d~enouement, no dream
explanation at its conclusion.
"Dracula' is the story of a YAM
pire, a restless, roaming spirit, that
in human form infested the coun-
tryside from midnight to dawn,
casting forth ominous warning of
his coming and leaving terror and
moaning mortals in his wake.
He fastens his pale lips to the
threats of sensitive girls and draws
them with menacing hynotism to-
ward a frightful doom.
Hamilton Deane and John Bal
derson dramatized "Dracula."

Yet it is not surprising that Kon-
jola is such a success because it is
really 80 medicines skillfully blended
into one, and of these 80 ingredients
% are the juices of roots and herbs
long known for their medicinal
value. If you are suffering and
would be we'll again then call on the
Konjola Man, who is at the Hook
Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and
Washington streets, indianapolis,
and have him tell you how the 80
ingredients of Konjola go to the
very root Of the ailment, cleansing
and invigorating, and paving the
way for the return of new, glorious
and lasting health. There is a
world Of hope in the statement that
Mr.. John F. Henderson, r. r. No. 2,
Box "a, West Indianapolis, made to
the Konjola Man a few days ago:
I'm five weeks Konjola brought
me new and glorious health after I
had suffered for five years from
stomach trouble and nervousness.
No words of mine can ever praise
this medicine as it so richly de-
serves.
II was the helpless victim Of
those ailments, trying one thing and
then another, sometimes getting
temporary relief, but most of the
time finding nothing but failure and
disappointment. I couldn't eat a
meal without suffering afterWard.
My stomach was in such a sour con-
dition that I could not drink milk
without it hurting me Even at
night I did not get any relief and
as a result I found it impossible to
gain sound, refreshing sleep. Final
ly I got so nervous that I had
trembling spells and was subject to
splitting headaches. These almost
drove me mad and I wondered If I
would ever be any better.
THE constant fixture Of medicines
TO help me took all my faith. Con-
sequently when Konjola was recon-
mended I thought that it would be
Just like all the other remedies I
had tried. But my friends insisted
that it was different; that it was
what I always needed. Finally I
was persuaded to give it a trial.
That was a wise decision for Kon-
jola was what I should have had in
the first place. 1t went right to
work; l could almost feel it. In
five weeks Konjola did more good
than all else put together. My di-
gestton was restored and my nerves
we're quoted. All trace Of trouble
with those ailments has vanished.
I eat, sleep and feel like a different
person. No wonder I am enthus-
iastic about Konjola."
1t is the same old story of success
wherever this medicine is intro
duced. And what Konjola has done
for countless others it will do for
you-for everyone All this medicine
asks is the chance to make you well.
The Konjola Man is at the Hook
Dependable Drug Store. Illinois and
Washington streets. indianapolis,
where ne is meeting the public
daily. introducing and explaining
the merits of this master medicine.
