RESTS WELL;
is SERIOUS?
X-Ray Examination Made
Inactivity Weighs
Heavily on Tiger

Paris, Feb. 2O.--SThe premier
certainly is seriously hurt; his
condition is as satisfactory rs
possible" Georges Mandei, Pre-
mier Clemenceau'S chief clerk
is quoted as saying at an early
hour this morning. The quota
ton is attributed 10 the clerk

An X-ray examination OF
Premier Clemenceau's wound
has Just been taken for deVei-

Premier Clemenceau, who was
wounded in the shoulder yesterday

Has Restful Night
Paris. Feb. 20.-Premier Clemen'
ceau spent a good night, the AS
sociated Press representative was
told when he called at the premier
house this morning. The premier
rested quietly through the night and
did not awake until eight O'Clock
His first remark to Sister Theo-
nesse. the nun who is attending
him. was:
Il am a lazy man. That is the
first time in 20 years that | have
been so late getting up"
The premier was not suffering
from any fever.
His enforced inaction is weigh
ing heavily on the premier, how
ever, and the doctors find him a
difficult patient, unwilling to obey
orders. He insisted in receiving
visitors yesterday and discussing
current business with Stephen
Pichon, the foreign minister.
The premier raised the question
as to whether the supreme council
should sit this afternoon as had
been arranged and expressed the
wish that the decision be left to the
delegates of the other great powers.
NJ. Clemenceau is impatient to re-
sumo his place at the head or the
conference. AS he refers to the
subject in his conversation with
those around him he gives the i'm
preston of believing that he Will
be taking his chair at the sittings
again in four or five days, for he
keeps repeating 1T is nothing"
Jokes About Wound
None the less, his wound occas-
ionally gives him much pain. He
bears this exceptionally well, and
the twinges do not impair his Gus
tomary good humor. Thus, short
" after he was wounded. when one
Of his colleagues, who is an old
and trusted friend and particularly
dear to him, came to see him, the
premier, smiling broadly, re-
marked:
"The Maharaja of Bikenir invited
me to hunt the tiger in his country.
Well, it is the anarchists who hunt
ed the Tiger but they missed him. "
The premier yesterday sent to
Sister TheOnesse, the nun who
nursed him when he was operated
upon a few years ago, and she now
is attending him. He asked that
his favorite old grandfather's chair
should be brought up from his
country house at BernouVille.
The premier's mind never was
clearer nor his thought more rapid.
He discusses his wound and his
symptoms just as if they were those
of another person.

 "She has been in failing health for
 some time, and has lost nearly seventy pounds. and was getting quite feeble. Her kidneys were in bad condition, caus- ing much inconvenience and backache annoyed her daily. Her food digested very poorly, and this made gas collec
 in her stomach. Headaches were fre- quent. She was constipated daily and had to take some physic every night. Her nerves were very shaky and dizzy spells frequently attracted her. I have always believed strongly in the root and herb medicines, so got a bottle of Dreco, and her health began to mend almost immed ia tely Today she is greatly improved for the constipation Is fully relieved; her kidneys are much better and the stom- ach trouble relieved: She is going to take several more bottles and -build herself up good and strong, since she has found the medicine which helps her."
 Dreco Is a pleasant combination of the juices and extracts of many herbal plants, which act on the stomach, liver, kidneys. bowels and purifies the blood.
 The action is prompt and effects last irg.

MANAGERIAL BEE IS
 NOT BITING EDDIE
Baron Captain Has Twice Refused the Crown in
 Recent Years

Eddie Mcdonald, Baron key stoner and captain, who has been mentioned as n probable successor to Cy Barger as leader of the Memphis Chicks, is not so keen to assume the responsibilities of managerial toSa. Sir Edward has twice refused the crown-last year being offered the job as pilot of the San Antonio club and year be- fore last being considered strongly by Mobile magnates.
 Eddie is one of the highest paid players in the circuit, is free from the worry of directing a teams play and can see no reason why he should burden himself with additional cares merely for the sake of n few extra sheekIes. The "beady one," of course, would not refuse bank presidents saI- ary, even if he had to handle the reins of a Dixie outfit, but other things being equal hell remain n private--or rather a captain--in the ranks.
