Is just pure Mocha and Java
prepared In a new way. I he cot
tee berry is cut up (not ground)
by knives of almost raxor sharp
ness into small uniform particles.
Thus it is not crushed, as by the
old method of grinding, and the
little oil cells remain unbroken.
The essential oil (food product)
cannot evaporate and is preserved
indefinitely. This is one reason
why a pound of Barrington Hall
will make 15 to 20 cups more of
full strength coffee than will any
coffee ground the old way: why
it excels all other coffee in flavor
and why it ..will keep perfectly
nntil used.
But the main thin? about Barr
ington Hall Coffee is that it can
be used without ill effect by those
who find ordinary coffee injures
them, because the yellow tannin
bearing skin and dust (the only
injurious properties of coffee) are
removed by the "steel-cut" pro
cess. A delicious coffee not a
tasteless substitute. .-

of you have made a mistake in your
shopping. The wisest of us is likely
to get "stung" once in awhile, and
the experience might do you good.
When you DO get stung on a pur

experiment with unreliable stores,
but to stick to the "tried and true."

cide. She has no theory who commit
ted the deed, but there is no doubt
in her mind that he was murdered.
She said there is no truth in the re
port that they did not live happily,
and that there was trouble between
them. She said they had been mar-
fried ten years and never had a cross
word, and that his conduct toward
her was all a husband's could be.
She is firm in her declaration that
vh- wanted the affair sifted to the
bottom and the guilty person brought
to justice.
Miss Leona Bonnclt, or Mrs. A.
Rice, as she is known, was arrested
today charged with being in connec
tion in the murder of Rustin. '
No charge has been placed against
her. She has admitted that she was
the last person in company with the
physician before he reached his home
on the fatal night. She accompanied
Rustin to within two blocks of his
home after midnight Tuesday. Her
husband lives In Des Moines. She has
not lived with him for some time, but

knows Rustin only as any patient
knows a physician.

CHURCH IN DIFFICULTIES.
Prominent Religious Corporation
Passes to a Trusteeship.
CHICAGO, Sept. 4.-In an effort
to solve the "City problem," which
has confronted the various downtown
churches for the last few years the
property of LaSalle-Avenue Baptist
Church, once one of the richest in
Chicago was transferred yesterday to
the City Mission Society; financial
straits a mortgage of $10,000 held by
the Providential Life & Trust Com
pany of Philadelphia the church
found itself unable to handle, and the
failure of its former rich members to
aid it led to the transaction.
The name of the church will be re
tained and it will be conducted along
practically the same lines as before.
But the property will be owned by the
Mission Society of the Baptist de
nomination and not by the church
congregation.
Interest and a part payment
amounting to $761 in all was paid to
the Philadelphia concern by the City
Mission Society following the trans
fer of the property which is valued at
$45,000. All future payments of the
mortgage w ill be made by the society.
It is the opinion of many that the
church is so near the business center
that they cannot support themselves
and that if they are to be sustained a
great part of the money for their
support must come from the wealthy
outlying churches.

UNITED STATES INVITES OTH
ER COUNTRIES TO A
CONFERENCE.
TRYINGTO G0NTR0LTHE EVIL
Various Countries Have Already
Named Delegates to the Conven
tion, and Hopes Are Felt That
Much May be Accomplished.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Turkey,
Persia and .Russia have been invited
by Secretary of State Root to partici
pate in the international opium con
ference to be held in Shanghai, China,
beginning with the New Year. France,
Germany, the United States, China
Japan, Portugal and Great Britain al
ready have named delegates to the
conference. Originally the idea was
to have represented at the conference
those nations which have territorial
possessions in the Far East, but as
opium is produced both in Turkey and
Persia, it was regarded as desirable
that those countries be asked to join
in the work of the international com
mission. The whole subject of the
opium traffic is to be discussed from
an economical, moral, and scientific
point of view, with the object of rea
ching, if possible, some agreement for
the control o fthe traffic in the Far
East. Good results already are ap
parent from the agitation for the sup
pression of the vice of the opium
smoking habit. The conference
is an outcome of the suggestions of
Secretary Root and the cordial manner
in which the governments have re
sponded to the invitationsto take part
in its-deliberations is very gratifying.

PROUD OLD CAR.
TOLEDO, Sept. 4. Not for three
years will the G. A. R. ask Congress
for further relief of measures. It ap
peared to be the consensus of opinion
of the leaders that too much hammer-
ng for pension bills and relief meas
ures might soon create undignified
impression in the minds of congress
men and reflect discredit on the
civil war veterans at the time in their
lives when they would need most as
sistance at the hands of the nation
they helped to save. Salt Lake City
will be the next meeting place.

has come from the commonwealth,
