Mrs. Elizabeth Anne Mallard. for- merly Miss Nellie Gunness of Green- ock township. was committed for trial at a rather sensational police court sittings before Magistrate Mc- Cartney at \Viarton on Saturday morning. at which Crown Attorney Dixon and Provincial Constable Blood were. present on behalf of the prosecution. while Lawyer Klein was there in the interests of the! defence. William Mallard of Purple‘ Valley. who claims to be her first husband. is still a!ive_and gave tes- timony at the court to prove. so. He stated that he was married to de- fendant 30 years ago next March. She left him some years later. taking their family of three children with her. According to his story he was out working in the bush and on his return found the household had de- parted. It is alleged that she later got married to a Mr. Selwood. and that. three children resulted from this union. Selwood died about a year ago. and according to the evi- dence she borrowed $20 from her lirst husband to pay her second hus- band‘s insurance. She is said to have gone through a third marriage ceremony on September 5 when. it is claimed. she was betrothei‘l to John W'ilson. a \Viarton grocer. Wil- son disappearei‘l quietly from Wiar- ton soon after, and is umlerstood to be in the West. Crown Attorney Dixon produced ropies of the mar- riage certifii‘tates from the Depart,â€" ment in Toronto. The defendant. who was sent up for trial at Walker- ton. was allowed out on her own bail. Mallard. who plays the role of the first husband in the case, spent ten days in jail for bigamy. he claiming that he thought his first wife had died and that he lit up hy-i men‘s. altar a second time by taking. to wife a lady from Red Bay. 1 en that pigs grown to 125 pounds weight on mixed feeds well balanced \\ ith skim milk (21/; pounds milk to 1 pound mealu. or tankag. 0 up to 10 per cent. in the nation. may be (in- ished on corn or barley and still pro- dure a firm, high quality product.

Four hundred pounds of meal or its equivalent produced one hundred pounds of gain in weight for four breeds in the test. In cheapness of gain the bacon breeds fully held their own.

Stomach. kidneys, liver and bowels were all badly out of order, her blood circulation was poor; in fact, she was so badly run down that life was hardly worth the living. Let this woman, who surely knows what suffering is, tell you of the grand relief that Dreeo, the famous system builder, gave her, “I am another woman since taking. Dreco,” says Mrs. Simms. “I sleep and "eat splendidly and life is again a pleasure, to me. Meal time can’t come quick enough, for my stomach troubles have disappeared and I no longer suffer the agonies of indi- gestion, dyspepsia. nausea, or cramps. My kidneys are stronger and rheumatic pains gone and my liver is active, ending the bilious at- tacks and dizzy spells that caused me so much suffering. "My eyes sparkle with health and I do not hesitate to say that it is all due to Drecu.
