"Ah good-morning, my dears," he greeted Knarf and Hanid cheerfully. "Is there any special kird of jelly you like best? Ill catch it for you. "But Your Majesty," Hanid said in astonishment, "I never heard of anyone catching jelly!" "It's always made," said Knarf. The king chuckled. "Dear, dear I'm surprised at both of you.

The ocean is full of jelly-fish. Didn't you know that? They come in all flavors. And it's no trouble at all catching any flavor you want. Here let me show you. Suppose you're fondest of apple jelly.

This is what you do He dipped the net in the water, swished it around a bit and lutea the dripping net up again. "Just as I thought," he said with a smile "Now we have enough apple jelly to last through the winter. I can't understand why, more persons who like jelly don't catch it my way rather than make it the old-iasn ioned way. "Of course," he added as he came out of the water to dry off, "not everyone can catch all the flavors as easily as I can. Lots of oceans don't even have the different kind of jelly-fish that my ocean has.

But anyone who would like to fish in my ocean can do so whenever tney wish. All they have to do is to find it." MUTILATED BODY FOUND IN PENNSYLVANIA SWAMP New Castle, Oct. 14. VP) An autopsy disclosed today that the body of a mutilated victim found in an eerie "murder swamp" near here was that of a man and not a woman as first believed. Coroner Charles P.

Byers made the announcement immediately after the autopsy. Tt was exDlained that the head less torso, which had been burned on a wood fire after the slaying, was in such conaition mat it was mistaken for that of a woman. Detective Peter Merlyo of Cleveland, who came here to study the case because of the possibility that Cleveland's "man butcher of Kingsbury Run" might have changed the locale of his operations, withheld immediate comment. The head, severed cleanly with either a sharp knife or ax, was not 1 11.. located in a hurried searcn oi me desolate marshlands along the Pennsylvania-Ohio state line.

Ambrose that sound pictures aided them materially in reaching the verdict. The all-male Jury did not recommend leniency and the mandatory sentence of death in the gas chamber will be pronounced Tuesday. Cook originally confessed killing the former Follies dancer for whatever money she might havejn her purse. Police made sound pictures as the Hollywood printer reenacted the slaying with the aid of a girl who volunteered to pose as Miss Sosoyeva. Motion pictures have been used here before in trials, but this was the first sound film shown a Jury.

Judge Ambrose said he questioned the Jurymen in his chambers to determine what value they placed on such evidence and was told they were assisted materially in clearing several points they had under discussion. Cook muttered nervously as the jurors filed in late yesterday: "Gee. it didn't take them Ions', did it?" They had deliberated 40 minutes. When he heard the verdict, Cook muttered again. "That's bad." His lawyers, deputy public defenders, said they would move for a new trial or possibly appeal.

Cook also awaits sentence on his confessed clubbings of Delia Bo-gard, 18, actress, and Myrtle Wagner, 17, in robbery attempts. Miss Wagner was criminally attacked. Orion Orion, Oct. 14. The B.
