 Certain relatively strong financial ly interests are now preparing to in- wade the retail drug field to limited etxent, carrying a general line Of mer- chandise heretofore regarded as drug store items. These interests hope to accomplish their purpose by labelling such establishments drugless drug stores and right here let it be under stood that it is the appropriation or rather the misappropriation of this title that is being challenged. !. It is quite apparent that in permit ting the operation of drug stores, whether drugless or otherwise. by per sons who have not met the require ments laid down by the legislature of a state would simply be depriving the public of the protection guaranteed under the law"

she spent some time m the Hanna
home at Westchester, New York.
In fact, Miss Evans, contends,
Hanna thought so well of her that
he proposed marriage. Shortly be-
{ fore he died, she claims, he offered
to give her $1,000 monthly for life
if she would agree to the breaking
of her engagement.
Hanna'S estate will have to un-
cover some love secrets of his past
life, his scores of affairs and will
have to bare intimate details of a
life which reads with some degree
that of Don Juan.
In the words of the streets, Hanna
knocked women for a goal" He
was lady's man. He lived for the
ladies', and he did his best by them.
In a burning interview shortly
after Hanna's death, his fourth wife
told the whole world in unmistak-
able terms that Hanna was a great
lover. Never again could she
marry, she said, because no man
could even slightly compare with
the great love that Hanna gave
her, said Mrs. Mile C. Hanna.
"One solid year Hanna wooed me.
Oh, what a Wooing!
He was tender. His devotion,

Miss Evans, Claiming Broken
Engagement, Seeks Allow
ance Of ST 200 Monthly.

Dan R. Hanna's gripping fas.
cination for women, his mil.
lions, some of his children, and
the woman who almost became
q fifth conquest, are the prin-
cipals in another one of the
post-mortem dramas Of the
Hanna family, and this one, ex-
pected to be the breeziest of 'em
all, will be staged in the Wash
lngton courts.
Mere mention of the name of
the son of the one-time Senator
from Ohio brings up recollec-
tions of beautiful women, Para
disc Alley, rich old roues, an
estate of untold millions, and
frequent trips to the divorce
courts.
Actress Is Principal.

IN a contest with lady who re.
FUSED to marry Hanna-for price.
She is an actress, Miss June Avis
Evans, and the heart balm she

believed was a legitimate claim to
Hanna's husbandly affections would
seem to indicate that the high cost
OF heart flames is going higher.
A cool $1,000 monthly, for life,
aS being sought by Miss Evans,
$4,000 a year; or assuming that
she lives to a ripe old age with
her memories, she will collect, may
be, in the neighborhood Of $3.50 900.
What was Hanna's strange power
over women? Even after he had
divorced four of them, they were
all on good terms with him, and
the. fourth took up her cudgel and
fought for him after he he'd died.
Was Heart Breaker.
Dan Hanna, gay. dashing. under.
standing, was a heart breaker of the
first magnitude.
He had many affairs with women
He spent lots of money on them, he
loved them, and when he died, nc
left family tree of such complex
characteristics that it can hardly
be correctly set forth. e.

such result is within the power of

Now he will get but one sweater, no
