The Idaho former probate Judge,
denied his last hope for stay of sen
tence by the supreme court's refusal
to intervene, went to the death be
rhose In preference to hanging for the
murder of his wife, Marietta, two
years ago.

most revolting crimes in the history

noon of Januarv 9, 1522. Woods stag
gered from his burning apartment to
tell exqited neighbors of a bandit at
tack in which he had been knocked
out and bound and his wife hut*.
Firemen summoned to suppress the
blaze found the body of Mrs. Woods
charring on a pyre of benzine soaked
bedclothes in a rear bedroom. Surgical
examination revealed that her Jawbone
had )s¥"n shattered by a blow, her
throat strangled and the l>ody then
set afire. Woods was held for in
vestigation.

It developed he had purchased that
day an unusual quantity of benzine
and that shortly before he had taken
out a policy on his wife's life in
favor of himself carrying additional
indemnity in case of death in a burn
ing building. He was charged with
first degree murder and convicted.
Woods spent his last night on
earth calmly. He ate a hearty sup*
I>er of chicken. When the prison
surgeon visited him Thursday Woods
remarked, "this thing of being exe
cute! isn’t as bad as I thought it
was going to be 1

I Chronic c ughs and persistent colds
lead to serious lung trouble. You can
stop them now with Creomulsion. an
emulsified creosote that is pleasant
to take. Creomulsion is a new radi
cal die 'very with twofold action; it
soothes and heals the inflamed mem
brane and kills the germ.
Of all known drugs, creosote Is
recognized by the medical fraternity
as the greatest healing agency for
the treatment of chronic coughs and
colds and other forms of throat and
lung troubles. Creomulsion contains,
in addition to creosote, other healing
elements which soothe and heal the
Inflamed membranes and stop the irri
