The belated hot weather found Us somewhat unprepared for it and it is, therefore, very trying to our fat men and "stout" women folk. If We are not careful and alert the hot, dry weather of the summer may be press cd into service by too many of our people as an excuse for the neglect of our local public interests. Let us try to be comfortable in our places as regular attendants upon our church services, public entertain ments, meetings of the Civic Club, etc. If we should neglect these very important interests, while we wait for pleasant weather, they all will suffer, but we ourselves would be great sufferers in that our loss of in terest would prove a distinct and de- .cided loss.

NO JAZZ FOR HARDING
President Does Not Care for
 Modern SynCopators.
Prefers Good, Light Music Such as "Erminie" and Robin Hood"
 With a Dash of Heavier Stuff.

Washington.-The "shimmy' music produced by the modern jazz bands, with their wailing saxophones, aero batic drummers and muted comets, may have taken the country by storm, but it has no appeal to man here in Washington whose opinions on many subjects are earnestly listened to by 105,000,000 people.
 His opinion on the question of music is worthy of consideration, for he used to play in a band out in New Gale donia, Ohio.
 He is the President of the United States.
 Not for him are the praying trom- bone, clashing cymbal and all the other jazz equipment to which Amer ica today is toddling around in in numerable dance halls. Rather the graceful strains of the Blue Danube" ," or the Merry Widow Waltz"
 Investigation disclosed that Presi- dent Harding has never been able to regulate his musical sense with the syncopation of modern jazz. He likes good, light music. His favorite operas are "Erminie," Robin Hood, - ''The Bohemian Girl" and others of the type that were so popular a decade ago.
 He also likes his musi I dish flaw ored now and then witk a little of the heavier stuff such as Aida" or Madame Butterfly"
 But jazz? No

FROM REMOTEsT
 PARTS OF GLOBE
Taniac Elements Come From Man~
 Lands Far Away From Here

The ingredients from which the celebrated medicine Tanlac is made come from remote sections of the earth, and are transported thousands of miles over land and sea to the great Tanlac Laboratories at Dayton, Ohio, and Walkerville, Canada.
 The Alps, Appenines, Pyrenees Russian-Asia, Brazil, West Indies Rocky Mountains, Asia Minor, Per sia, India, Mexico, Columbia and Pe- ru are among the far away points from which the principal properties of this remarkable preparation are obtained
 What is said to be the largest pharmaceutical laboratory in the United States has been completed at Dayton, Ohio, for the manufacture of Tanlac which, according to recent reports, is now having the largest sale of any medicine of it's kind in the world, over 20,00O,0O0 bottles having been sold in six years.
 The new plant occupies 60,000 square feet of floor space and has daily capacity of 50,O00 bottles. Uniform quality is guaranteed by series of careful inspections by ex- pert chemists from the time the roots, herbs, bark and flowers are received in their rough state from all parts of the globe until their medicinal properties have been extracted by the most approved process. The finished medicine is then bottled, la bled and shipped out to tens of thous- ands of druggists throughout the United States and Canada to supply demand never before equalled by this, or any other medicine.

Withheld since March 3 last when

should not be promulgated until the

Issuance OF the beer regulations will
cause redoubled efforts to effect the
passage of the anti-beer measure, Sen.

Secretary Mellon, in announcing the
issuance of the beer rules. declared
that the legal rights of the parties
concerned being plain. the department
is unable to longer delay the issuance
of these regulations"
However" he said for some time
past it has been strongly urged by
those interested that this department
had no right longer to withhold the
regulations, and that in so doing the
department is denying to those inter-
ested their clear legal right and there
by imposing serious loss upon them.
Medicinal beer can be sold in only
a few states" Mr. Wheeler, attorney
for the dry forces, declared in for
NAL statement, and would then be
used largely by bootleggers.'
Every brewer who has violated the
law within year is disqualified, he
said. and we will fight every appli-
cation on this ground as they have
practically all violated the law"
Issuance of the regulations, he ad.
ded, was bad politics. froth from
