of a love affair started a year ago
when Barr boarded at my home
while working as an automobile me
chanic at Oskaloosa, It was then
he met my stepdaughter. They had
not been childhood sweethearts as
was previously stated.

removed she will be taken back to
Oskaloosa, where she will be given
a good home.
"'I'm tired of this butterfly life,'
Nine told me when I visited her at
the hospital. 'I'm coming home to
live quietly. If Will hadn't shot me,
I would have been home now.'"
Hospital authorities said yester
day Mrs. Weddington was slowly
recovering and that she could he

"I Recommend It for
' Nutrition"
A food talk by
A. E, Hoffman
Churned
like butter
Snowy coconut fat is inviting, ap
petizing, very digestible and highly
nutritious. It is the basis of Troco.
It is churned with pure, twice-pasteurized
milk, from which it gets
the sweet, delicate butter flavor.
This combination of two of Nature's
food stand by s results in a food of
highest value.
I recommend it for nutrition as
well as flavor.
I learned to make Troco by making
butter for 30 years. I have made
and judged butter and taught butter
making at leading dairy schools.
Since Troco is churned like butter,
with tasteless, neutral coconut fat
replacing butter fat, this 30 years
has taught me how to perfect Troco,
and give it the sweet deliciousness
which makes a dainty dairy product
the most appreciated of all foods.
You will find Troco at leading deal
ers who naturally feature the best.
; It may cost a few cents more than
' other brands, just as fancy butter
always commands a premium.

to make Troco

Worn Out In Mind and Body
Your child ia quick to observe disturbances in your mental attitude or
physical condition. And when he asks: "What's the matter, Daddy!"
there's a tone of solemn anxiety in his little voice. The depression
stamped upon you reflects intensely upon him because of his profound solic
itude. He at once drops his playthings and rushes to your side, but his
happy smile has disappeared and his buoyant spirits are gone replaced
by a countenance of worry and a bearing of hopelessness.
Ton owe it to the happihesa and welfare of your family to keep trim in body and keen In
intellect. You are the ran and the iniplration of their lirea. Dark, threatening cloud, hover
