Mllnn, Italy, June 14. .V woman of Mystery Is today being sought Ity the Itallnn police In connection with the Chnrlton trunk mystery. This woninn disappeared Immediately nfter the nr rest of Spotnloff, the Russian, on sus picion of having slnln Mrs. Porter Chnrlton nud possibly her huslmiul, who.jillve or dend, cnunot be found. The hunt for this woninn ndds n new problem to the perplexing mystery. What pnrt she Is supposed to have ployed In the crime the police will not explnln, but that she Is badly wanted Is clear from the pnlnstaklng measures which have been adopted to apprehend her. On June 0 the woman went to the Hotel Jolauda In the village of Uer nobblo, not fnr from the Cbarltons' former residence, the Villa Moltraiso. and registered as Elfrleda Ditchers, ago thirty-one, Hamburg. She spoke a broken vnrlety of French and, as the proprietor of the hotel noticed, her nc ceut was not that of a German woman This was on the day before the dls. covery of Mrs. Charlton's body In the trunk. On that night, so the proprietor of the Jolamhi has sWom, and be Is back ed up by one of his chambermaids, El frleda Duchers left the hotel early, and she did not return to her room that night. The bed was not dlsturled tho next moruhig when the maid went to tidy up the room. The nest day the news came to the hotel of the finding of the trunk in the lake and almost colucldentally the woman returned In a carriage. Shi appeared to have heard the report al ready, and she rushed excitedly to the proprietor, clamoring in her broken French, which was not at all Germanic In Its faults, to be told all about the finding of Mrs. Charlton's body. "Has the murderer been arrested? Have they got him?" were her In slatent questions. She remained on the piazza of the hotel all morning, bending to catch the last scrap of gos sip that passed from mouth along the roadway. Shortly before sundown one of tho servants who had been over the g'round from the Villa Moltraiso to the water's edge came running up to the hotel with the news that Constantlne Snolaton. the Hussion, had been ar rested over the border. The woman hearing the news be came greatly agitated, so the proprie tor of the hotel Jolanda wound up the story he had told the procurator. "She called for her bill Immediately and in doing so she spoke two English words, 'How much?'. Then she In quired what was the first tralu on the St. Gothard railroad that would carry her to Luzerne. She went In n hurry and with excitement. The proprietor added that he had as sured the procurator that in his beliel the woman who had made the hurried visit and the moie hurried departure was au American. Dragging of Lake Como has lulled sc far to result In the discovery of Portei Charlton's body, but a coat belonging to the missing man was found. He life deepens umong tho searchers that the bodv Is somewhere beneath the waters of the lake. Snolatoft has been repeatedly sub Jected to rigid examination, but he re fuseM to confess. The American ambassador to Home John G. A. Lelshmnn, and the Anier lean consul there ate hero today. It Is said that the ambassador came at the suggestion of the state department at Washington with the purpose of pusli lug the Investigation into the murdei of Mrs. Charlton. Mr. Lelsbmon wll remain temporarily ns the guest ol some friends at Moltrasio. At his re quest divers will explore the bottoir of the lake. This is a difficult task, ua thi water where the body was found is fifty feet deep and shelves off to ward the center so sharply that It has never been fathomed. An autopsy performed upon the body of Mrs. Charlton Is said to have r rented tho presence of drugs. It has been learned, however, that the wo man was a victim of the cocaine habit. Now that the strenuous Teddy Is :oming homo again there is the Jungle parasol handle to greet him with. As Its name indicates, the handles show the different African animals and birds he hunted.

Those who work fifty weeks to accu mulate enough for two weeks' vaca tions, with deliberate Intent to spend all their money ns well ns their strength during vacation, will need the assistance of benevolent and sensible people If ever out of work for n week or two nnd especially in sickness. Also It usually requires about n month to get over the exhaustion" of n wasted and expensive vacation. Like other blessings, vacations may be so far per verted as to cause added weariness in stead of needed rest. A wisely used vacation Is a great builder of body nnd mind, and If rightly used two vaca tions would be ndvnntageous, while one used as ordinarily wasted by many people Is an added tax on vitality nnd character. A butterfly is beautiful, but n honeybee Is more useful, while the beauty of tho butterfly ndded to the In dustry of the nnt (or perhaps your own aunt) makes the most perfectly developed diameter and physical grace.

If It is well with us now It Is because there nre more than ten just men appealing in our behalf.

Tip maintains thnt the absence of proper animal food in several genera tions, absence of it in the growing child, absence of it In the life of par ents and grandparents; this absence of live meat for generation upon gen eration, a chronic, uncured, unap- peased meat hunger, 13 undoubtedly the chief cause of catching nnd dying from consumption. Air hunger nnd air starvation come only from the meat starvation; free moat eating and free breathing go hand In hand. Vege tarians will deny this broad statement, but tho broadest-minded physicians who have seen most of consumption will say that if tho poor children and their parents had plenty o! beo thoro would not be much consumption. In other words, consumption Is mostly built upon a very slow, concealed meat starvation In the Individual and his forbears. In proof of this, deadly consumption Is ten times commoner In the poor than in the rich, and tak en the world over is far commoner In vegetarian nations, like East Indlrns and Chinese, than In meat nations.
