Then my limbs started to get rheumatic pains and T knew I was in bad condition. 1 felt just run-down, exhausted and nervous. My stomach would =et bloated with gas and T was badly constipated. “Hearing about Magay containing | that wonderful Maguey Sap, 1 de- cided to try it, after all thc other medicines proved worthless. I can dance with joy as I feel the good it has done me. Why T haven't had a pain or ache as loxg as 1 can re- member, now. My feet are not swol- len—have no headaches—the rheu. matic aches have gone.

Chicago, Feb. 14 (UP)—Relatives and friends of Mra. Doris Palmer McDonald, under sentence of death in Canada for the murder of a taxi- cab driver, will make depositions here today to support a plea for commutation of the young woman's sentence.

Katherine Walker, her grand- mother, and Miss Mary Gould, for 15 years her governess, were 1o make affidavits before Attorney James O'Brien, employed by the ‘Women's Protective Aasociation here in an attempt to save the girl from the gallows. The three women were expected to | testity that Mrs. McDonald's ma- ternal grandfather committed suicide shortly before Doris was horn, and that as a child the girl had “fanciful ideas” and “delusions.” Mrs. Hazel Snyder, the ginl's mother, recently divorced from Dor- | 1s' father, enlisted the aid of Chi- cago clubwomen in behalf of her daughter. The convicted girl also is the adopted dauglter of Dr. Frances Palnier, prominent woman physician ot Oklahoma City. Dr. Paluer, it was reported, will go to Mt. Vernon, N. Y., this week to begin an {ndepen- dent campaign to aid the girl. FIRLEBL Boston, Feb. 14 (® — Fire de- partment officials are determined to have Patrick McDonough, 14, where he can’t play with fire.

M. Downing, vice president of the Pacific Gas & Electric Company, | | said in a paper presented today at | | the winter meeting of the American | Institute of Electrical Engineers. “Unfortunately, the widespread discussion of this subject that ha { taken place during recent years,” | | ho asserted, *has given the public | the impression that it would be prac- | ticable to interconnect all of the | | power systems in the country ir-| respective of the distances at which | they might be separated, and, by | | parallel operation and exchange of power, effect economies to a point | where the cost of power to indivi-| | dual consumers might be reduced. | | “Nothing could be further from {the fact. In the light of preseut | knowledge, the advantages of inter- | connection are regional in char- | acter and limited to a radius of 300 | to 400 miles. “Some of the more enthusiastic | proponents of giant power,” Down- | |ing continued, *have gone fo far| |as to suggest that there should be | high-voltage lines of large capacity connecting different power-produc- | ing and power-using areas within | | the radius of practical electrical | | transmission, thus in effect produc- | ing a single pool of power into | which all generating stations would | deliver power and out of which all distributing aystems, irrespective | of ownership, would take delivery | of such amount as they would | Light Crisp | Are Also Included m- B.

From an {dealistic stand- point such an arrangement would probably be well nigh perfect, but from a practical and economic standpeint the investment in trans. mission facilities would probably be 80 great that the purpose sought to be accomplished would be de- feated. “Although there are many argu- ments in favor of interconnection as a most logical means of effecting cconomies, the extent to which power systems can be advanta- geously interconnected has certain limitations beyond which there is no advantage in going. Since the economies of interconnection lie in improved load factor, higher diver- sity and greater uee of existing facilities than arc possible by com- bining loads of dissimilar char- acter, it naturally follows that no great advantage would be gained by the interconection of two or more systems unless by doing so these clements could be improved.” DOG GUARDS DEAD Chelsea, Mass, 14 @ Neighbors who had missed Mrs. ellie Donovan, 60, for several days called police, who found their way barred by a small but determined terrier. In their dilema they recalled that Patrolman John P. O'Neil had long paced that beat and summoned him. The dog recognized O'Neil im- mediately and the policeman climb- el through a window to find the aged woman dead on her kitchen floor.
