Blymyer, York "pow-wow doctor,” was convicted of , the first degree murder of Nelson H. j Rehmeyer, recluse farmer-sorcerer, and | the penalty was fixed by the jury at life Imprisonment The slender, pale-faced man who In sisted he had a right to kill Rehmeyer at Ids lonely home In North Hopewell township on November 27 to break a “hex,” appeared Impassive and disin terested. A few moments later, in the sheriff's office, lie said: Says He’s Happy. “1 am happy now. 1 am not be witched anymore. I can sleep and eat and I am not pining away.” As an afterthought, and without the slightest emotion In Ills voice, he added: "But I think that they went a little strong; yes, that’s It—a little too strong." The jury’s verdict brought to an end one of the most dramatic and funtas tlc trials ever witnessed In any court. After Blymyer had been pronounced a borderline lunatic, a psycho-neurotic, a hypochondriacal melancholic, know ing no more the moral Implications of AM ifiX She Told Him That Rehmeyer Had Helped Him. his act of violence than an untutored child, his attorney in his closing plea fought hard for an acquittal on the grounds of insanity. Blymyer’s own story of tils life was one of the most dramatic ever heard In a court. His Justification could be summed up In two sentences: "Rehmeyer is dead. I am no longer bewitched—l can live now in peace.” Blymyer said he had killed because he was right; under similar circum stances he would kill again, because In the code of mysticism in which he believes, the death of the “hexer” re moves the blight. He told how for ten years he had been In 111 health. Medical men could do little, so he turned to the “pow wowers.” They told him he was be witched. Told He Was “Hexed.” But it was Mrs. Noll, "high priest ess" of Marietta, I’a., who first planted In Blymyer’s mind the delusion that re sulted in the murder. She told him, Blymyer testified, that Rehmeyer had hexed him and that the spell could he broken if lie would got the book, “The Long Lost Friend," text book of the pow-wowers, or a lock of Ilehmeyer’s hair. The book was to be burned and the hair to he buried. lie Induced Curry, another pow-wow victim, to Join him ir. the expedition. They found Rehmeyer at his home and, falling to get the book or hair, the murder followed. Curry was also convicted and given a life sentence. Ex-Convict Finds Way to Riches in Cemetery Columbus. Ohio.—To Wesley Me- Cafferty a cemetery is more than a mere graveyard. It is a place to earn an easy livelihood in which the gross returns are all gain. MoCufferty was recently released on parole from jail at Columbus, Ohio. Being ambit ions, he set out to make a living. A large soap concern wanted a list of prospective customers to whom it could send samples, so McCafferty wont to a cemetery attfl compiled an extensive list. He called at the post office, collected the samples mailed his clients, and then sold the soap. Encouraged by first success, McCaf lerty answered an advertisement to obtain signatures petitioning the city of Urbana, Ohio, for improvements. This time he was found out and re turned to jail.

The ensemble illustrated con veys an idea of the picturesque effects fashion achieves in the way of ap parel for the outdoor enthusiast. In this creation, Patou suggests for the winter sportswoman a gray and green sweater and blouse, with cap and scarf to match. The pantaloons are of black broadcloth. Trouser costumes are quite the thing this season. While for them color is restrained, and the styling given them is man-tailored, it makes the contrast of knitted accessories which are of unstinted gayety all the more striking. Sweaters to be pulled over the cos tumes and the cardigan jackets as an extra protection are one blaze of gor geous color. Startling yellows in com bination with reds and blues, wine color splashed with pink dots and gray stripes—the list of high colors is never ending. The scarf and the cap, gloves, with knitted anklets all play their roles in a fetching manner. Woolen coats flaunt very wide and very vivid stripes, some of them seemingly made of Indian blankets.

Knitted gloves, too, seem to provide all the extra colors which may, perchance, have been left out of the costume itself. Little tot’s wardrobes, in addi tion to the proper quota of sturdy ginghams, piques and the heavier linens, must, if fashion’s com mands be obeyed, include a goodly number of airy-fairy frocks. This means a revival of such lovely old time favorites as dimity, batiste, dot ted swiss and line handkerchief linen and last, hut perhaps most important, dainty voiles either in solid color or flowered. Furthermore, the mode approves frilly, ruffly types for little girls, often sleeveless, then again with puff-sleeves übove the elbow. Yet, when all is said and done, in no sense must there be a display of overelaborateness, rather is the quality of becoming sim plicity stressed. Particular emphasis is placed on flowered and plain voiles for every day wear. One can be encouraged to use them since, nowadays, if one in sists, coiorfast shades are available. This of course adds infinitely to the practicality as well as to the attrac tiveness of voile as a medium for chil dren’s frocks. The fact of dependable color applies to the solid tints as well as the patterned voiles. In the picture little sister is wearing an orchid voile frock. Note that it is made with a yoke. Designers this season are featuring yokes in every version from round to square, to pointed or scalloped. Tiny ruffles, four rows of them, answer to fash ion's call for frilly effects. Little bloomers to match, of course, for bloomers and knickers and pantie frocks are taken for granted in every wee tot’s outfitting. Rejoicing in a flowered voile is big sister, as pictured. It has a collar, ( for collars share honors with yokes this season. The designer achieves for this pretty frock a.clever circular hemline, the same seamed to a soft' and full blouse top. It is really a wise plan on mother’s part to fill in midseason leisure hours making up a collection of Buttery voiles, sheer linens, swisses and such for little daughter to wear later on. By the way, the new dotted swisses come in the most charming solid tints, and so do the new piques for that matter. Why not, while the sewing spirit is on, add several new cotton washable coats which are so cunning, so novel this season, and so wearable over dresses of sheer fabric? Very striking cottons and linens printed in designs which are frankly modernistic make stunning little coats, Matching hats are ever present this season, and a modernistic coat topped with a modernistic hat spells chic fot children. Quilted calico and solid colored pique coat-and-hat sets are also very smart for tots. Coat-and dress ensembles are exploited among juvenile fashions which adopt pat terned with monotone materials. JULIA BOTTOM LEY. (©. 1929. Western Newspaper Union.) The History of John J. Doherty sCase "Three years ago I took a severe cold nutting me directly to bed.

At the time my heart pained me terribly because It was three inches out of place, due to the pressure of the fast-aceumulat ing pus. , , . “I was ordered to the hospital for an immediate operation or I would he a dead man in 3(5 hours. The next morning the surgeon removed one inch of two ribs in the Back, forming a square cavity to remove the pus, which squirted eight feet from the table. About two quarts was removed. A rubber tube was then inserted in the cavity to the lung for a drain, which took about three weeks to per fectly drain and heal the cavity. “The doctors told me that I had to take ail precautions possible, as I was subject to easily capturing tubercular germs, due to the weakness of mv lungs. For one whole year I used several kinds of tonic and lung medi cines and didn’t improve much from weakness. “Then I began the use of Milks Emulsion and after a month’s trial I found myself with increasing appetite and gaining strength, and today I have regained my natural weight and strength and feel completely myself.

Hen Mothered Kitten The mistress of a Hinsdale (Mass.) farm had a hen sitting. Going out t* inquire as to the comfort of the ex pectant mother, she found the eggs uncovered, and, in the nest a tiny kit ten. The hen took to the nest again after feeding, and covered eggs, kitten and all. She continued her care of the kitten after the eggs were hatched, says the Boston Globe. “Lucile is the Happiest Girl” So many mothers! nowadays talk about jj||||||||k giving their children ips||||k fruit juices, as if this were anew discov- ***■ li ery. Asa matter of % .Ji*-.*, W fact, for over fifty years, mothers have been accomplishing results far surpassing anything you can secure from home prepared fruit juices, by using pure wholesome Cali fornia Fig Syrup, which is prepared under the most exacting laboratory supervision from ripe California Figs, richest of all fruits in laxative and nourishing properties. It’s marvelous to see how bilious, weak, feverish, sallow, constipated, under-nourished children respond to its gentle influence; how their breath clears up, color flames in their cheeks, and they become sturdy, playful, en ergetic again. A Western mother, Mrs. H. J. Stoll, Valley P. 0„ Ne braska, says: “My little daughter, Roma Lucile, was constipated from babyhood. I became wopied about her and decided to give 1 her sme California Fig Syrup. It stopped her constipation quick; and the way it improved her color and made her pick up made me realize how run-down she had been. She is so sturdy and well now, and always in such good humor that neighbors say she’s the happiest girt in the West." Like all good things, California Fig Syrup is imitated, but you can always get the genuine by looking for tiie name “California” on the carton.
