Works to Forget Doom. ■ Each day at hev own request, she finds outlet for the troubling yoke of the death-watch by washing white the flagons of her cell and meticu lously dusting the wire meshing separating quarters of the doomed from those <if ordinary prisoners. But the livelong hour.-: and, sometimes far into the night, that crooning melody garnered from ithe folksong lore of her native ; Italian lowlands rises with plaintive '.jeer against the jail walls and ceil ling to come hurtling back like a battered bird seeking escape from the dank darkness within.

Translated, the gushing torrent iof music bears resemblance to the i English version of ‘Rock-a-By? Baby, in the Tree Top.” Forever it i floats about the jail exterior where anxious guards are becoming un ! nerved by the serenade. I But Mrs. Xitti sings on. Only occasionally does she talk jand then in breath-sucking mono-, tone s to hiss betwen half-parted lips: ".Me no strangl-a. Me no no strangl-a.” At times she has expressed ap preciation of the comparative ben ■- Hits resulting from confinement. Life before was hard. Married at 1 -1 to a peassant 20 years her senor and brought soon to scramble for a living in America, she seems thank ful for the better jail fare with oc casional time for play, recreation I ami with no worry for poverty nor 1 endurance of bitter cold.” Looking into her leathery face and at the warped figure, one won ders at the murderous plot with yong Deter Crudelie, who is under sentence with her. "Me no look nothing'," she says in the little English she has learned since coming to prison. This absence a’f appeal to the eye, in her mind, is the reason why the jury brought the verdict of guilty for the murder of her hus band, Frank Nitti. Song Is Her Balm. Except for the half-realized dread of ‘strangl-a” and the separation from her “babees," Sabelle woui I call the jail a refuge. She has erased the physical tragedy of surrounding's with her song. ! Seemingly, it has beaten down the shapest pangs of memory and dread of what has been ordained. However, the common guess, both inside and outside the jail, is that she never will ibe executed. i he only other woman ever sen- CATARRH Catarrh is a Local disease erreatly in fluenced by Constitutional conditions.

But Sabelle’s eyes see dangling over her the sword of Damocles as plainly as ever did a king. Gripped with physical p..nic she is powerless to philosophize. Nor does it make much difference to her that legions of her own sex, drawn from welfare agencies and civic clubs, are bearing succor to se cure a commutation to life impris onment. "Me no kill my man,” she moans. '.And they strangl-a me.’ A hoarse shriek follows the utter ance. Then comes once more the sing ong monotonous melody. Sabelle is dispersing her fears and grief once more. CATTLE TICK ARE BEING CONTRACTED ATLANTA, Jan. B.—‘The efforts of the United States Department of Agriculture and co-operating states to eradicate the cattle tick in the South are gradually contracting the infested area in spite of obstacles which are more troublesome as the end of the long campaign against this costly pest seems to be in sight." This statement is contained in a bulletin issued by the United States department of agriculture. Recalcitrant communities are lia ble to remain longest under quaran-i tine, since they co-operate but grudgingly, nevertheless, the latest revision of the Bureau of Animal Industry orders to prevent the spread of the ticks and Texas fever WOMEN NEED SWAMP-ROOT Thousand of women have kidney and bladder trouble and never sus pect it. Women’s complaints often prove to be nothing' else but kidney trou ble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. Pain in the back, headache, loss of ambition, nervousness, are often - times symptoms of kidney trouble. Don’t delay starting treatment.

"In some cases counties which had been freed have, through care lessness or accident, became rein forced with the tick, making it nec essary for the bureau to requaran tine them. A number of counties I and parts of counties in several states were put back under restric tion this year..

Cigaret consumption increased last year, ,the word ‘consumption ’ having an excellent meaning. Chewing tobacco fell off in 1923, maybe because sidewalks are get ting too wide to spit across.
