4-DAY TEST
AlvltA ItrlllgH KcftllltN
V. P. Olewlne, railway engin
eer of Buffalo, New York, who war
pnaJtt to work on account of blad
der inflammation, went back to
work in four days after taking
Alvita tablets.
"I have been troubled for sev
eral years with bladder Inflamma
tion and when I sent for Alvltn
wan unable to work and did not
know If I ever would run an en
gine again. I could not stay In bed
Bights, as I was worse lying down
than at any other time. 1 have
been up 25 to 30 limes In six to
eight hours. Forty eight hours af
ter I beKnn taking Alvita tablets
I was almost normal and in four
. days went to work and at present
feel perfectly well. I don't know
what to miy; in fact cannot tell
how I appreciate the benefits I
have derived from the use of Al
vita. I have given away some to
Other men that are affected.
Alvita is the recent scientific
discovery which brings lime. irnr.
nd phosphates to you fn a vege
table form. It is prepared from the
deep rooted alfalfa plant In highly
concentrated tablets. Alvita his
proved especially beneficial In
building up weakened, run down
conditions and In overcoming kid
ney, blnddT and prostate trouble.
No matter what you have tried, try

Washington, Mar. IS Secretary
Jardlne today directed the grain
future admin'strntion to wake an
immellatt Investigation of the
recent violent fluctuations In the
market price of wheat.
Chicago, Mar. 18 Wheat went
r.kyrocketing today shooting
'Straight upward 10 cents a buhe:
t tiie very out net. .May wheat
touched $ 1.63 um compared with
$1.53 to $1.53 at yenterday's fin
ish. A sharp rim; in values ut lAv
orpool pre2?d:d the advance here.
Trading was a tremendous waie
with fluctuations violent. Within
a few minutes the market wa back
nearly four cents from the Initial
top fivnrcH with prices ftwlngln
at limes one cot between trades.
Almost a complete famine of of
ferings characterized the Mart,
but buying orders were ut florid
tide and frantic bl Idlng ensued
until 10 cents a bushel h-td been
added to prices before half of tho
brokers In the pit coul 1 take their
beiiiirgs. Then selling turned
loo:;e wlLlly.
liefore tho backward Impetus
wim checked May whMt dropped
to $1.68 Vi but was still five cent
or more above the closing figure.i
of the previous day. A rally of al
most three centy followed. Liver
pool market which had opened to
day at o;io to two penc-j recline,
had mounted to nine pence net
gain.
ltig buying h?re by foreigner
was an outstanding feature of to
day's dealing In f-ilure deliveries
or wheat.
Tho extraordinary right -ubo'jt-
fnce in the wheat market today
was h.iffed to a considerable extent
on tho fact that virtually the en
tire stock of wheat in Chicago
available for delivery on May con
tracts hern ha of late been re
duced to about 900,000 bushel of
hard winter grade in public elevators.

NEW SCIENTIFIC
DISCOVERY IN
GLANDOGEN
Many leading authorities and sci
entlsts have proved by actual
tests, that the benefit of gland
transplantation may be obtained
by giving the pntient gland sub
stance, to be taken internally,
rnther than by operation.
r. Arnold I.orand says In his
book. "Old Ago Oeferred," In
peaking of the glands: "We mu.t
imdst upon tho re-lnfureement of
their functions, if changed by ag
if disease, by means, of extracts
htulned from the. similar organs
of healthy young animal-."

story coincided with the lime Kal
man said he attended the school.
Tho accused man has made the
same denial of White's story that
Ie has made of Kal man's und of
John P. Mxrchund, former attache
of the school, who snld Shepherd
had written rogirding course.
"You're a liar," Khcphcrd shout
ed at White, further corrobora
tion of Falman's statement that
$100,000 had been fixed by Shep
herd and himself a his portion of
the McCllntock fortune if their
plana were successful, was added
prosecutors thought, in a letter
showing that Kalman planned
$150,000 worth of Improvement
for hts school immediately after
the rich orphan's death.
Attorneys for Jsabell Pope, Mc
Clintock's fiancee, who waited to
marry him when he died, and who
was left an $8000 annuity In his
will, said they would contend that
Miss Pope la entitled to the same
share of the estate as If she had
actually married him under a con
struction of the law by which she
might be regarded as hr equitable
widow. They were ready to ask
for a continuance when the peti
tion of Shepherd ti probate the
will came up In probate court to-
lay.
Probe Oilier Deaths
Ten cousin of McClintock, who
have attacked the will on the
rounds that Shepherd used un-
luc Influence have announced
through their attorneys that if
their contention should be upheld.
Miss Pope will receive the annuity
for which the will provided.
Exhumation of the bodle of
Mrs. Emma Wilson McClintock,
mother of the orphan and of Dr.
Oscar Olson, brother of Judge Ol
son, who died suddenly after eat
ing fruit brought by Shepherd
when the phyxi?lan was mildly in
disposed, was planned by state's
authorities.
In a statement last night Judge
Olson said hi believed that his
brother had ben poUoned. He de-1
dared there had been a conspir
acy of 16 year to obtain McClin-
tock's estate, beginning before the
death of Mrs. McClinto:k. He said
his investigation woulJ continue
and finding of them would be
turned over to the state's attorney.
