that a minimum charge by gas of elec- i

you eat, without the aid of any arti
ficial digestives. If It won't do that,
' then you are continually subject to dys

" and constipation.

take steps to get your stomach and in
testines again In a' hettlthy, natural
rondltion. ' Jayne's Tonic Vermifuge will
do this for you If you will take It reg
ularly. It Is not a dlgtster of foods,
but it will restore your stomach and

' their natural functions, digesting what
you eat and giving strength to the

fore the jury was completed. Only two
of those examined for Jury duty were
opposed to capjtal punlshmentwhjch Js
another remarkable fact. .
Following the completion of the Jury
opening arguments were made In the'

Self .defense la to be the plea of the
defense, according to Attorney Manning,
who, with Barge F.' Leonard, is defend
ing her 3"hey will' try to show that
Celestlno and his father were threaten
ing her and that she shot without know
log. aCwhichahe waa almins the revolver.-
It is claimed that Celestlno in
duced her to desert nd divorce ber hus
band and then refused to marry her.
According to Deputy Page, the state
will try to prove that the woman shot
Celestlno because he (refused to marry
ber. The woman Is about SO years old
and was about five ;yeara the senior of
Celestlno:
The state will place witnesses on the
stand to show that Cejestino was but
one of a number of men who were pay
ing her marked attention and that her
claim that he should have married her
was. no more Justified than it would
have been in the case of any of the
others.' Deputy Page Is being assisted
by Attorney Albert Ferrera, retained by
the father of the dead man, Pietro Celes
tlno. Sitting by the side of the woman
through the trial is her sister, Mrs.
Bridget McNichol of Detroit; Mich.
