Herbert Hoover

can outstanding feature Of the candidacy of
Herbert Hoover is that he is not candidate, -
says the New York Times. "A young political
friend who lately suggested his hat for the ring
was forcibly and definitely thrust out at the
door. When Julius H. Barnes nominated him
before the National Dry Goods Association, We'd
nesday night, he took care that the letter an
nouncing his intention should reach the nominee
together with the newspapers reporting the
speech. Mr. Hoovers hat is still firm upon his
head. e.
Even more striking is the fact that Mr..
Hoover is man without party. The most Mr..
Barnes could say was that his political affilia-
tons have been with the Progressive-Repu
ans. But the Observation-Disclosures no
more as an organization; and Mr.. Barnes fur
ther deepened the uncertainty when he stated
that if the Republican party were to adopt a
Eon-progressive PLATFORM and otherwise line up
with the Old Guard, it was conceivable that Mr..
Hoover might head the Democratic ticket. Mr..
Will Irwin, who was Hoover's roommate at Le-
land Stanford, gives a similar account. Mr..
Hoover's worldwide wanderings mining en-
gineer have always prevented him from voting,
with the exception of 1896, when he voted for
Mckinley against Bryan; but Mr.. Irwin points

There is a large class of feminine
names which originated from the COM
plexion. OF these, one of the most
popular is Blanche, meaning fair. or
white. It's origin, in turn, is from
blec, the term by which absence Of
color is denoted by all tongues in
Western Europe. The French word for
white is blanche, but the term was not
employed as feminine name in early
times except in poetry.
Blach. Ralnous and Blanchard ap-
pear in Domesday and indicate the sue
cessive steps toward the acceptance of
Blanche as a feminine name, but there
is no record of her use as such in
that worthy historical record. Blanche
fleur (white flower) was the name of
the mother of Sir Tristan. The first
historical Blanche was Blanca of Ma
varre. the queen of Sancho ", of
Castillo. Her granddaughter, the
child of Eleanor Plantaganet, whom
King John used as lure by which to
detach Philippe Auguste from the sup
port of Arthur of Brittany, was
passed the name on through the royal
family for generations.
It also formed the origin for the
ager queen of France. a term also as

the president, not only with regard to the league
of nations but also with regard to the famous ap-
peal of 1918 that the nation, regardless of poll
tics, return Democratic congress. To Mr.. Irwin
this indicates that Hoover could run on either
ticket. Such record and such an attitude are
not likely to allure the practical politicians of
either party whose chief interest centers in
maintaining the solidarity and vigor of their or
CARNATIONS. No man is great man to them
who is not also potentially a great political
leader
1.-THE fact remains that Mr.. Hoover is thus
far the most interesting Presidential possibility
with the exception of Leonard Wood The two
characters are in fact, similar The brilliant
success of General Woods administration in
Cuba, which won worldwide celebrity in it's day,
stands on an even footing with the Hoover food
administration. The far-sighted and practical
idealism of the Plattsburg training camp with
out which our army must have been very ineffi-
GENTLY differed, is equaled by Hoover's prompt
and energetic interpostion in behalf of Belgium.
Both men have pursued their ideals of patriotic
service with an utter disregard Of the result to
their personal and political fortunes. Of the two
Wood has today the stronger national standing,
Hoover the more nearly worldwide celebrity.
Brand Whitlock's Belgium" enshrines heroic
figure certain features of which receive further
modelling in Maynard Keynes recent volume, in
which Hoover appears in his subsequent Euro
pean activities.
This is an era of wide and rapid expansion
in our activities as nation. In the rapidly
shifting currents of the time many things
would be stranger than that such man should
rise suddenly to power and place. The trouble
is that the time has not yet passed when party
regularity and merely partisan leadership have
ceased to be powerful factors in presidential
nominations
"As for MIR. Hoover's own intention, his con-
duct thus far indicates that he is willing to wait.
He is only fortyfive and of independent fortune.

COULD NOT RAISE

Il want my statement published in

"A month ago. continued Mr.. Fergu-
son, "it would have been impossible
for me to DO the work l am doing to-
day. Five years ago | commenced to
have rheumatism in my left shoulder
and arm and across my back under the
shoulder blade. | kept getting worse
until I had to be carried to a hos ital
where l lay helpless for three weeks.
l simply could not move without help
During the past four years have lost
at least eighteen months from work
on account of this rheumatism. Most
OF the time I could not even lay back
in BARRIERS chair to get shaved, and
my left arm was SO helpless I could
not raise my hand to wash my face.
Since leaving the hospital a year ago
have been able to be about part of
the time, but few weeks ago those
awful pains started up in my arm and

got Tanlac I was also suffering from
stomach trouble and had been for ten
years. | distinctly remembered about
a year before the rheumatism came on
me, of being troubled so with indi-
gestion, spots coming before my eyes,
and dizziness that I got alarmed. |
could hardly bear to think of eating
as the simplest kind of food would
sour on my stomach and cause a
sickening sensation and intense pains.
After even a very light meal my heart
would palpitate and act so peculiar
that | was afraid had heart trouble.
Il tried all kinds Of medicines, had
the best treatment, and spent hun
dreds of dollars in my efforts to get
rid of stomach trouble, to say nothing
of what l have paid out since the
rheumatism struck me, but never got
more than little passing relief. I
could see no way out of my troubles
until l read a statement for Tanlac a
few weeks ago from a man who had
suffered with the same kind of trou-
bles. The first bottle give me a good
appetite and as soon as got so could
eat and digest my food I noticed the
pains in my arms and shoulders get
ting less. l can use my left arm and
hanQ better now imam IN three years.
The other day I tried laying back in
the BARRIERS chair and was overjoyed
to find that my shoulder did not pain
me the least bit. I am eating. three
good, hearty meals day and can just
feel myself getting stronger all the
time. I think anyone who finds relief
after suffering as I did ought to be
willing, for the sake of others, to tell
