Yesterday's Mystery Solution
Tilt! murderer In the problem of 'The
Belted Itoem" left the room by the
deer He belted It behind, him, en the
Inside In this fashion :
He took a strong linen thread nnd
ileublcd.lt. -The- loop he slipped ever
the knob of the belt. Then he brought
the two ends nreund te the outside of
the deer, and closed It. Pulling en both
ends of the thread at once, with the
cilge of the deer nctlnc as a pert of
pulley, he shot the belt home. Then he
let go one end of the thread and pulled
the whole length out through the crack
between the deer nnd the jamb.
It was the faint mark en the phank
between the knob nnd the body of the
belt, wbere this thread had rubbed the
tarnish away, that gave Harvey Hunt
his clue. The tarnish had been rubbed
a, way from Jhr knob, of course, by tin
gers In the ordinary manipulation of the
belt
for mutual protection, fleeeclng whole
sale houses by ordering goods, secreting
them and then going through bankrupt

Urewnslllc. Tex., Nev. 17. President-elect
Harding's reply te the In
vitation given him estriday te visit
Mexico during his southern trip prob
ably will be determined upon durlnc the
next twenty-four hours as he travels
by special train from Ilrewnsville te
New Orleans.
Iieavlng here at 10 o'clock this morn
ing at the end of n nine-day vacation.
Senater Harding was te reach New
Orleans, at 10 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing nnd ir the course of a five-hour stnj
was te deliver an address before the
New Orleans Association of Commerce.
If it should be decided te chnnge his
steamship's course te permit a call at
Vera Cruz, it is preb'ible that an an
nouncement will he made before he
leaches the Louisiana pert. There were
L
n Indications before his departure,
however, whether or net lie would ac
cept the Invitation, which came te him
yesttrdn from Mexican officials.
The invitation was brought te
Brownsville by Ellas L. Terres, who
said he spoke both for the Mexicau
foreign office and for General Obregon,
the Mexican president-elect. In an
hour's conference with the senator,
who Is passing here the last day of his
Texas vacation, Mr. Terres- made a
special pica that the seinter he present
at Obregon's inauguration In the Mexi
can capital en November 30.
Sir. Harding Is represented by his
frlendR as weighing carefully two con
siderations before making a decision.
It Is said he is anxious te take every
Mop te cement relations between the
two republics, but that, en the ether
hand, lie Is determined te de nothing
that might be construed as an interna interna
nfitlnnel Impropriety.
He has told his friends that If he sets
feet en soil of ntiy foreign country In his'
trip, he Will de no solely as n private
citizen and net In any sense of official
representative of the United States
Government.
Aside from the two courses remains
the question of whether the salllrig ar
rangements already made by the President-elect
can he se modified ns te per
mit a call en the Mexican const. He
left here this morning and will take
ship nt New Orleans tomorrow after
noon for the Canal Zene.
Senater Fall, of New Mexico, who
was chairman of the Senate sub-committee
that Investigated Mexican affairs,
came te Ilrownsville with Mr. Terres,
nnd wns at the conference between the
Mexican envoy and Mr, Hardlnc.
In describing the talk between Mr.
Harding nnd Air. Terres, Senater Fall
said the Invitation contemplated that
the President -elect should go Inte the
territory ns "the guest of the Mexican
Uepubllc."

A Meal that Appeals te a Hungry Man
THICK slices of roast beef and rice, boiled
southern style, make a meal that can't be
beaten. The rice should be cooked se that each
flake stands alone. Then the meat gravy sheuld'be
poured ever it. There's nothing mere delicious.
There isn't a meal that you can't serve rice
with. Eat it vith sugar and cream for breakfast.
Make it into a tasty dish for lunch. Serve it as a
vegetable for dinner. Eat: rice as you de potatoes
with gravy or butter en it. Eat it every day.
There is no better feed than rice and American
rice is the finest in the world.
It only takes one cupful te make enough for a
family of five. Any that's left can be combined
with leftover meats and made into many appetiz
ing dishes. Rice is never wasted. There are
ever three hundred ways te prepare it. It is the
most economical feed.
Rice is the most healthful feed, tee. It nour
ishes. It builds strength and sustains it through
long working hours. It promotes healthy growth
in children. Rice digests mere quickly and
easily than any ether feed.
