~ MOONS RINT IN BIG ESTATE NEAR DECISION Judge Tidball Has Under Advise- ment Disposition of Large Es- tate Left by Amos Smith, * Wealthy Stockman KEMMBRER, Wyo., Jan. 13.—Judge V. J. Tidball of Laramie, sitting for Judge John Arnold of this district, has taken under — advisement wherein Norris Griggs of Kemmerer seeks to be appointed guardian of his incompetent sister, Mrs. Amos Siaith, who is an inmate of the state hospital for the insane at Evanston, and as guardian authorized to elect that Mrs. Smith shall recefve one half of the of Mrs. Smith, seeks ‘to have carried out the disposition of Smith's estate| provided for before his death, whereun-! der, it is claimed, the interests of the widow are amply safeguarded. The real) point at issue appears to be whether | relatives of Mrs. Smith or of Smith shall be permitted to enjoy the bene- fits from -50 percent of his. estate to which the widow is entitled under the ‘Wyoming law if she so elects. Smith, one of the wealthiest cattle- men of the Green River valley, diet about a year ago. His wife for many years previously had been confined in a sanitarium at St. Joseph, Mo. In his last will, dated in February, 1917, Smith bequeathed to his wife $2,500 in cash and’30 shares of stock in a corporation Into which he had merged the greater part of his fortune. The balance of the 405 shares of stock in this company, with the exception of five shares which Smith retained, was distributed among his relatives, ane of whom is Mrs. Jen- Kins. The stock bequeathed to Mrs. Smith is appraised at about $20.000, The corporation is capitalized at $200.- 000, but on the basis of the appraised | value of the shares bequeathed Mrs. Smith its stock is worth approximately $270.000. “Soon after Griggs, ,brother of 'Mrs. Smith, learned of the provision which was made by Smith’s will for Mrs. } Smith he caused Mrs .Smith to: be brought from Missouri to Kemmerer, here adjudged insane under the Wyom- | ine law and committed to the state asy- lum at Evanston, and succeeded in hav-} ine himself appointed her guardian. He} then instituted proceedings to have the| will of Smith set aside and his widow permitted to exercise the option given her under the Wyoming Iaw of accent- ing one-half of her husband's estate, ‘On the basis of the appraised value of! the stock bequeathed to Mrs. Smith one-half of this stock alone would -he worth approximately $135.000. Mrs. Jenkins, who is.a niece of Smith, com- batted the Griers plan and made anppli- cation for appointment as: guardian of Mrs. Smith in_erder that, in that ca- pacity, she might elect that the widow accept the settlement made by Smith's will. Judge Tidball’s decision will de- termine which course is to be pusued in regard to the insane wodiw's inter- ests and, ‘consequently, whether Smith’s relatives or Mrs. Smith's relatives even- tually will benefit from the position. of the dead man’s estate which under the- law she might, if of sound mind, elect to receive instead of the amount Yequeathed to her by his will. The In- terests involved are those of collaterlal relatives because there are no offspring of the Smiths. Mrs, Smith is 67 years of age. Mrs. sJénkins is’ the wife of P. W.

He proved that the toxic poisons which form in the intestines and cause auto- intoxication had more to do with shortening life than anything else. Clean out these poisons and there is no reason why human beings should not live, hale, hearty, strong and vigor- ous, a hundred years or more. Buch is the doc- trine as taught by the noted Metchnikoff. What causes those toxic poisons—where do they come from—how do they get into the in- testinal tract? Science gives us an answer in one word—Acid-Stomach. Acid-Stomach causes food fermentation; and it is this mass of partially digested, sour, fermenting food passing through the intestines that creates toxic poisons that are absorbed into the blood and carried into every part of the system, causing along train of diseases and making millions of men and women feeble, haggard and old looking before their time when by right they should be strong, healthy, in the prime of life.
