GERMAN COMMENT

Berlin, March 5-From the German standpoint it may have been hoped that President Harding would assume Ah- other position than that indicated in his naugural> address, says the Lokal AnZeiger today in it's comment on the American presidential utterances, but from the American viewpoint it thinks there is no denying the wisdom of an attitude which reserved the right O. freedom ot action in European affairs
 "It is safe to assume" concludes this newspaper that the new President will not fall into the mistakes which hand
 capped the work of his predecessor"
 The Tageblatt professes to see in the beech America's flat and final re- jection of the league of nations, but it believes that President Harding will not dig the grave of the league without offering the world something new and better. His program. calls for com pulsory international tribunal and probably with this in mind he called MT. Hughes to the cabinet. As an in ternational diplomatist, MT. Hughes is an unknown quantity, perhaps a mo- vice, even a diletante, but it is known that he is a jurist of the highest qual- ity, and this augurs well for the world court plan"
 The Tageblatt says the contents Of the note may be summed up as saying:
 I1dnuS OH, EurOpe, nanuS OH the League of Nations, America first" It adds, however, that this is only the Presidents first, and not his final word. .ss aas4
 The Taeglische Rundschau, in it's editorial reference to the address says:
 'If President Harding failed to re- fer to Germany, this does not mean that the United States is content to see it's commerce, it's export trade, permanent ly injured through the economic ruin of Germany"
 The conservative industrialist organ Die Post, believes President Harding is reckoning on the possibility of the United States being forced into war as evidenced by one passage in his ad- dress
 Die F'reiheit, the independent-so- ;cialist organ says the inaugural plainly indicates that a sober, cooly calculating representative of American capitalisn has entered the White House and that it would be illusory to assume that the determination of America to cut loose from European affairs meant that she would assume an attitude of opposition. to the entente and of support of Ger many

LAST FAREWELL ID
 CHAMP CLARK SAID
 BY HOUSE MEMBERS
Guarded By Honoring Escort, Body of Fallen Champion Is Taken to Missouri on
 Special Train
By Associated Press

Washington, March 5.-As simply as the man they eulogized had lived, his fellows of the House of Representatives said their last farewell today to Champ Clark of Missouri
 The body of the fallen champion, dragged down at last by the weight of years, lay in peaceful slumber in the chamber where echoes of his voice seemed still to eddy and whisper in mem ory of his long years of service. And about it mourned men of every walk, high or low, among whom he had moved in fellowship few short days ago.
 Tonight, guarded by last honoring escort of his colleagues in House and Senate, the body was being taken by among home folks from whom he sprung. But something of his spirit brooded still about the empty halls of the capitol, dedicated to the principle that the people rule alone.
 He stood four square to the world, Senator Reed said of the dead leader in adding the confirmation of the Senate to the tribute of the House.
 Upon his countrys altar he placed the whole wealth of his magnificent tai ents, the zeal of youth, the energy or middle life, the wisdom of old age"
 SORROW NOT RESTRAINED
 And the same thought had come to Rep resentative Mann of Illinois, speaking for a. membership whose sorrow knew no par tisaIi restraint:
 His memory will remain as an emotion for an old warm friend from whom he was parting.
 Those who knew him best, lcved him best, and yet there are millions who never saw his countenance, who never time of personal need received hls coun- sel-they, too, loved him"
 There was little more to the ceremony than that, just the flower-draped coffin before the speakers desk and the massed flowers bearing the sympathy of men and women known the nation over grouped about it, the solemn comfort or old hymn or two the haltng prayer of the aged chaplain emritus and the row on row of sorrowing friends. Blacked- robed judges of the supreme court, cab inet officers, diplomats senators, generals and admirals and the full membership Of the House were on the floor, their sym pathy centering on the dropping figure of Mrs. Clark.
 And at the end, with the quiet face of the dead exposed, deep graven wi.h his last suffering hours, long lines filled all aisles to file silently by and gaze upon it, lines in which senators and cabinet officers moved at elbow with humber folk who work about the great building, lines that wrote in human documents the democracy that Champ Clark had lived and preached

NOT DISAPPOINTED

Paris, March 5.-French official circles, after careful study of President Harding's inaugural address regarded it as 5ustifying French opinion that the United States would always cham pion France in matters of right ane justice, and declare that no cause for disappointment or Encouragement is to be found in the message. While satisfaction was expressed with Mir Harding's declarations. regret was felt that there was nothing to indicate his attitude toward the Versailles treaty and other problems.
 Officials professed to find in the ad- dress support of their opinion that the United States would be brought into a league, but said they preferred not to discuss the present covenant although asserting a willingness to have it amply amended so it be understood that the United States would not be called upon to participate in problems not concern ing her.

Manchester Guardian Thinks Harding Willing to Enter Some Kind of League to
 Prevent Wars
By Associated Press

Manchester, England March 5.-"Presi- dent Harding indicated in his inaugural address yesterday his willingness to en- ter some sort of organization which would prevent future wars. says the Manchester Guardian, in commenting on the inaugural addrtss of the new Ameri- can President. The newspaper adds that Mir. Harding is called upon to bridge a diffcula passage in Americas relations with the rest of the world.
 "The political exgency," it continues dictated that the whole plan of the League of Nations which MT. Wilson helped to inspire must be stultitied in America even before it could properly be understood. The march of world clear that some form of a league must and will compensate for the horrors of war. What is to be the new American governments attitude toward it?
 MT Harding tells us, and his message is carefully wrapped up in one hope. Through the whole address runs force% ful current of that determination to help to make future wars impossible which led to the foundation of the League ot Nations.
 "The Guardian is of the opinion that while Harding distrusts the league as be- proposed to do what it likes with the vanquished, he is willing to consult with it. but will not commit Americans to any of it's plans without their consent.
 European nations" continues the newspaper, that haven't hesitated to im- pair their national sovereignty because of the belief they have in the good that will ultimately come of the league, will not quarrel over these criticisms and safeguards"
 The newspaper adds that those in Eu- rope who care for the league realize that if it is to fulfill it's purpose it must at the earliest moment mend it's member ship and eliminate that taunt of being military alliance or super government. Does Harding for his part feel" the Guardian concludes, "as they do, that the first and most effective step towards that end would be full, friendly counsel ana CO-OpSTdliOil WltH AiIltTlCd
 HOPE FOR BEST
 London. March 5.-The Westminster Gazette, commenting today on the in- augural address of President Harding, says;
 Let us not be dismayed because Pres ident Harding says in set phrase that America will not do certain things which President Wilson wanted her to do If she will not do these she will do certain other things of which we may say, at least, that they do not all conflict with our aims or what we understood as the general aims of the Wilsonan policy"
 Referring to Mir Harding's "compre- hensive programme for international CO., operation" the newspaper says:
 President Harding may be assured the sensible people of Europe will not stand on words or forms, but will look solely to the substance of his proposals"

VII SON POLICY RIrRIED

Rome March 5.-"President Harding's g inaugura tion is Wilson's sepulchre, " says the Idea Nazionale. The news paper continues: "The Wlsonian policy has been adjured- entirely buried; the alliance with France and England an- nulled, participation in the League of Nations suppressed and substituted by disarmament and by a court of arbitra- tion and direct intervention in the Eu- ropean police has been replaced by a return to the traditional Monroe Doc Urine.
 ''In one thing only Harding has not modified Wilson's policy and that is in his determination not to discuss the question of the allied debts

ANSWER THESE.

Where can man buy cap for his
knee,
Or key to the lock of his hair?
Can his eyes be called an academy,
Because there are pupils there?
In the crown of his head
What gems are found?
Who travels the bridge of his nose :?
Can he use, when shingling the roof
of his house,
The nails on the end of his toes?
Can the crook Of his elbow be sent
to Jail?
If so, what did he do?
How does he sharpen his shoulder
blades?
Ill be hanged if | know, do you?
Can he sit in the shade of the palm
of his hand?
Or beat on the drum of his ear?
Does the calf of his leg eat the corn
on his toes?
If so, why not grow corn on the ear?

TELLS EXPERIENCE.

Elijah Halford, who was private
secretary to President Harrison, was
wont to tell with great gusto this
story of one of the experiences of his
official life:
1t will be remembered that Presi-
dent Harrison was friendly and well
disposed toward the members of his
own family in the way of bestowing
public office. One hot summers day
a breezy westerner waited into the
executive offices, took seat, tossed
his cowboys hat on the floor and said
to Halford, II want to see Ben"
The secretary asked him what was
his mission, explaining that the pres
ident was busy.
He replied, 81 want to see him
about an Office"
He was told he could not see the
president for couple of hours at
least as he was engaged with the COM
mittee on foreign relations.
Grabbing his hat and boiling for
the door our friend from the plains
exclaimed, "Good heavens, has he
foreign relations ?"

THE DESERT HAS ONE GOD.

The desert has one God, the Great
Lord Sun,
Death is his servant, as the jack
ais know,
That follow where the caravans dare
go,
With obscene rites to claim what
death has won.
The desert asks no grace and Of
fers none,
Indifferent to withhold or to bestow
A yellow sea that has no ebb mol
flow,
Where only light is ended or begun
No one has ever heard the desert
speak.
The ocean has voice and the winds
To win some answer to the word
they bring.
The hungry -jackal on his lonely way
Beholds the desert PROSTATE, wor-
shipping,
But never yet has heard the des-
ert prayer.

MANY CASES OF
RHEUMATISM NOW
Says We Must Keep Feet Dry, Avoid
Exposure and Eat Less Meat

Stay off the damp ground, avoid
exposure, keep feet dry, eat less
meat, drink lots of water and above
al take spoonful of salts occasion
ally to keep down uric acid.
rheumatism is caused by poison
Gus toxin, called uric acid, which is
generated in the bowels and absorbed
into the blood. 1t is the function of
the kidneys to filter this acid from
the blood and cast it out in the urine.
The pores of the skin are also q
means of freeing the blood of this i'm
purity. In damp and chilly, cold
weather the skin pores are closed.
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and slug
gish and fail to eliminate this uric
acid which keeps accommodating and
circulating through the system,
eventually settling in the joints and
muscles causing stiffness. soreness
and pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put Il table
spoonful in a glass of water and drink
Before breakfast each morning for a
week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to
normal action. thus Kidding the blood
of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
