ON WATzL SUICIDE
Cleveland Man Obtained
Vienna Policy Under False
Name, Says Company.

BY the Associated Press.

suicide insurance policy taken out by
DR.. Hermann ERNST WatZl of Cleve-
land for his bigamouS bride, Mrs. Mary

a hotel here, was said by the insurance
company to be void.
The company said it would not pay
the policy, which was made out to Mrs.
Eva Hovarth of Cleveland, mother OF
Mrs. McGranahan, inasmuch as the
suicide clause was not operative for two
years after the issuance of the policy
and because, besides, WatZl procured
FlasSak t was secured on the second
day of their arrival here.
BY shooting himself shortly before
midnight Sunday, when the premiums
on his own policy of $685. 900 expired,
Watzl is believed here to have assured
collection of the amount by his wife
and two daughters in Cleveland.
Watzl a prominent chemist, disap-
peared last November while en- route
from Cleveland to Philadelphia and was
rediScovered only after he had shot
himself and Mrs. McGranahan, whom
he had married, although neither had
a divorce, in a hotel room here Sum-
day.
The bodies of DR.. Watzl and Mrs.
McGranahan will be released today
from the Legal Medical Institute for
final disposal. According to Watzl, ST.,
his son will be cremated in Vienna
Saturday in the presence of his fam
lily. Later Mrs. McGranahan will be
crenated at the same crematorium.

Excess Acid is Poisoning
Your System

Excess acid is menace to
health. 1t curdles the food we
eat into insoluble humps, forms
gas in the stomach and intestines;
attacks the delicate Innings of the
digestive organs, makes them in
famed, and often, if allowed to go
uncorrected, produces constipa-
ton, ulcers, chronic indigestion
and other serious disorders.
You can correct stomach dis
tress almost at once. The surest
and quickest way is Milnesia
Wafers-which are pure milk of
Inagnesia in a pleasantly favored
wafer. By chewing Milnesia
Waters or allowing them to dis
solve in the mouth the moment
symptoms appear, fine alkaline
film is at once deposited over the
mouth, stomach and intestinal lin
ings, correcting and protecting
them from acid attack. Excess
acids are Immediately neutralized.

ED. LOWE EXCELLENT IN
 GENTLEMAN CROOK ROLE

Good Intentions" have brought about the downfall of many but sei- dom with such dramatic effect as is shown in the Fox movietone drama of that name, which Is the at traction coming to the Bradley on Sunday and Monday.
 The story tells of the attempted reformation of famous interna- tional crook. Having amassed quite comfortable fortune from his nefarious activities and being en- amoured over a beautiful girl of society who returns his affections, he decides to give up the old life and tread the straight and narrow. His old gang, however, have different ideas about his reformation and the ensuing battle of wits between the master crook and his underlings re- suits in series of daring episodes seldom seen in one picture.
 Edmund Lowe in the leading role of the gentleman crook who aband. ons the blackjack for the social rgister, gives a performance which .neny critics have hailed as even fin nr .s(s,e, bis previous work.

 and died in Birmingham. England in
 1919. It is not generally known that
 the contents of his garret workshop are in the Science museum at South Ksnsington. The garret was used by

Samuel Smiles, who was one of the party. recorded that "The ashes of the last fire were in the grate. the last bit of coal was in the ecuttle. Many objects lay about or in the drawers. indicating the pursuits which had been inter- rupted by death. On the shelves arc minerals and chemicals in pots and jars. on which the dust of nearly half century has settled. The moist substances have long since dried up. the putty has been turned 10 stone and the paste to dust. On the shelf we came across dish in which lies bunch of withered grapes"

The less the unsprung weight in proportion he sprung weight, the easier riding the car will be. If the weight below the spring is un- usually heavy, or out of propor- ton to that above, it imparts road shocks with greater force, thus lessening riding comfort.
