PROFESSIONALLY preparation f o r
healthy maternity is accomplished by
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com

BRYAN AND THE PRESIDENTIAL
BEL
Washington POst.l

Henry Clay was the most brilliant
and the most idolized man the story
of American politics has preserved to
us. He was a very great man, a
thinker as we'll as an orator, and
amid the scenes of action he would
have been one of the most inspiriting
figures, leading a squadron on the
field of battle, the world ever saw.
Numerous were the friendly fairies at
his christening, laden with gifts, aus
picious in promise, golden in the har-
vest; but one hateful bag obtruded
and decreed, He shall not be presi-
dent" and mayhap that anathema
was the most valuable asset of all his
possessions. Who could think of Hen
ry Clay as President Clay?
Mingled unfortuitous circumstance
and unsagacious management waited
on his pursuit of the prize. BY the
narrowest chance he was last in the
electoral college of 1924; had he
been third instead of fourth the
House of Representatives would have
elected him. Thurlow Weed believed
Clay would have beaten Jackson in
1882 but for the rebuke he admins
tered to the anti-Masonic party, and

The county superintendent Is the
