MORE MEN THAN WOMEN
HAVE APPENDICITIS

Medical reports shown men are
more subject to appendicitis although
many sudden cases occur among wo-
men. 1t can be guarded against by
preventing intestinal infection. The
intestinal antiseptic, Alder-i-ika, acts
on BOTH upper and lower bowel,
removing. all foul, decaying matter
which might cause infection. It
brings out matter you never thought
was in your system and which may
have been poisoning you for months.
Alder-i-ka is EXCELLENT for gas
on the stomach-E. E. HUYCK,

ACCORDED PALM FOR BEAUTY
Miss Harriet Lane Acknowledged to
Have Been the Prettiest Lady of
the White House.

Historians are inclined to give to
Miss Harriet Lane, niece of President
Buchanan, the palm for being the pret-
tiest woman that ever ruled the White
House social life. She was a blond
with hair of rare gold, deep-blue
eyes, and her mouth was said to be
one of the most beautiful ever owned
by Washington belle. Her beauty
was so noticeable that at the dawn
Of womanhood, when she accompanied
her uncle, then Americas representa-
tive in England, to Oxford, where he
was to receive the degree of doctor
Of civil laws, that the student body
greeted her appearance with terrific
cheers, inspired entirely by the smile
of her lovely lips as she turned her
fowerlike face toward them.
Not only was she beautiful in line
and curve, but in addition she was
a picture of perfect health, an ath-
lete of no mean order, as many q
young gallant discovered after she
had challenged him to a race and
beaten him so badly that spectators
of the race numerically chaffed
him. She played many games with
skill and vigor, and there was not
woman in Washington that could
compete with her in any game call
ing for strength and great activity.
In spite Of this she was not unwom-
anly, and excelled as a harpist, wrote
poetry, and, as the young people of
the capital reported, danced like
feather
