HARDING.:' Ex-Governor Stuart read a letter from Postmaster General Will H. Hays, which expressed the belief that Mr. "Wanamdker was the ideal Amer ican citizen. Former Judge James Gay Gordon read a letter from Wil liam Jennings Bryan. PRAISES FROM BRYAN The latter wrote: "I regret exceed ingly that train schedules prevent my joining you in doing honor to John Wanamaker, America's great est merchant. His business career illustrates the possibilities in this 'land of tho free.' His political career illustrates a high type of citizenship he takes time, for patriotic duties. His personal life illustrates the beauty of Christian service. God has given him the 'wis'dom of ag'3 without withdrawing from him the strength of earlier years. May he live long to enjoy tho affection of his countrymen." . Justice von Moschzisker read a letter from Vice President Coolidge, who was detained in Washington yesterday by government duties. He said: "It would be a pleasure to me to join with you in paying this de served tribute to a man who has been so prominent, not only in the business world, but as an unselfish servant and benefactor."

In fact, quite a series of jokes, some of them pass able and others impossible, were sprung by the .humorists. The stage rhymesters: and balladists for a short time got a hand on their quips and songs. Many of them and a large part of the sympathetic audiences believed that prohibition was only a temporary restriction. As late as last summer there were many men in Washington who were willing to bet that one of the old parties would declare against prohi bition and that the country would unanimously approve it. When even the democratic convention evaded the issue, there came a realization that prohibition was. with us for all time. Tho next attorney general, Mr, Daugherty, has announced that he will insist on strict enforcement of the Volstead act. This knocks the props from under thoso who still had hopes. , It Is not our purpose to discuss the question of prohibition, for- it was threshed out pretty well In tho thirty years' campaign that culmin ated in t'he dry law, but we feel it is time to caution those who persist in the belief that there may.be a repeal of' tho amendment or modification of the Volstead act that they are wasting time and ener gy, Thero will bo bootlogging for a number of years, Tho supply of liquor in the United States will last for ten years, it Is estimated. That ft is being hold rather tightly now is attested by the fact that bootleg gers can obtain little of it. The bottleggers are peddling fake con coctions under fake labels. A label factory was discovered, in Cleveland recently. It was printing all the old familiar labels under which whisk? was sold. Somo of the stuff is com ing under "Irish Whisky" labels is practically kickless. So, as tlmo passes, tho "old stuff" will bo more closely treasured and moro of the worthless liquid will bo found in the hands of tho bootleg gers. In another year it hardly will be worth while for the revenue of ficers to arrest a bootlegger. Then, too, the home brow artists are becoming weary. It is quite a bit of trouble to stew oneself over a kettle of brew for two or three days to obtain only enough to get a trifle of a kick. Those who honestly opposed pror hibition -are. doomed to accept it. It makes no difference under what cir cumstances the amendment was passed, the fact remains that It is the law of the land and there is no earthly use of trying to have it re scinded. A lot of good energy that could be directed to useful pursuits Is be ing wasted by opponents of prohibi tion and it is for their benefit that thia advice is given. The fizz is gone out of the Issue; the jokes are falling flat, and. there is but one thing to do wet our whistles with Adam'g ale and UK the situation as philosophically as a parched throat will permit, Miami Herald. OLD GUARD DRINKS WATEIl The dinner of the Old Guard held last evening in Delmonico's, In celobration of tho ninety-fifth anni versary of that organization, was, in tho words of Major Edward H. Snydor, tho commanding officer, a yory sad affair. For tho first tlmo in tho history of tho Old Guard its toasts were drunk In mineral water. Tho Eighteenth amendment was sovoral times feelingly referred to, and when tho guardsmen, voter ans of a hundred bottles no, battles lifted their mineral water, tho band played "How Dry I Am". ana tho drums were muffled. Former Governor Whitman was tho principal speaker or tho even ing. He made a prohibition address. He said that whllo some of tho man datory restrictive provisions of tno prohibition law wore disagreeable, tho law represented tho deliberate will of tho American people. Mem bers of tho Old Guard might . not agroo, ho said, but ho believed that the Americans were determined that the saloon muct go. "This proposition," continued Mr. Whitman, "when submittod to tho people, has never been defeated. Now, to say that it was put over on the people is' so silly that it is laughable. For you men, whether or not you would like to take a drink, to say this, for anybody to say so is to show that you or any body else does not know what ho Is talking about.'' Now York Exchange. A Brain Can't Work Right On Thin, Watery Blood It jtake Iron to make Strong:, Forceful, Energy Many a capable .intelligent man falls just short of success; nearly "geits thoro" but not quite simply because he lacks sufllclent iron In his blood to give him tho physical strength and power to furnish tho proper forco to his brain and tho "stay thero" strength to his "will." A brain cannot do its work rght think the thoughts that win on thin weak watery .blood any moro than a locomotivo can pull a big train of cars with a weak smolder ing fire under, its boiler. When your blood Is starving for iron no mere tonics nor stimulants, can put you right. You must have iron, forwithout Iron your blood' loses .Its power to chan go food into Uving tissue and nothing you eat does tho proper amount of good. You do not get the full strength out of it. To get iron you must eat the husks of grains and the peels and skins of fruits and vegetables as our forefathers did or take a little organic iron from time to time and eat moro such iron-containing foods as spinach and apples, . But be sure the iron you take is organic Iron and not metallic or mineral iron which people usually take. Metallic iron is iron Just as It comes from the action of strong acids, on small pieces of iron, and is therefore an entirely different thing from organic iron. Organic iron Is like tho Iron In your Magnetic Meat with the Fowcr and to Win blood and like tho iron in spinachpjf lentils and apples. It may bo had from your druggist undor tho name oi Nuxated Iron, Nuxated Iron represents" organic Iron In such highly condensed form- that ono dose of It Is estimated to be approximately equivalent ln organic iron content) to eating one half quaTt of spinach, one quart of green vegetables or half a dozen apples. It's like taking extract of beef instead,, of eating pounds of meat. To prove to yourself what Nuxated Iron will do, get your doctor to take a- specimen of your blood and make a-"blood-count" of your red Corpuslcs, then take Nuxated Iron -for a month and have a new "blood-count" made and seo how your red blood corpuscles have increased and how much stronger and better you feel; seo how the color has come back to your cheeks, how steady and strong your nerves have become. Over 4,000,000 people annually are using Nuxated Iron. It will not injure the teeth nor disturb the stomach. Your money will bo refunded by tho manu facturers if you do not obtain perfectly, satisfactory results. Beware of substi tutes. Always insist on having genuine organic iron Nuxated Iron.
