Inactive Livei "I I'tave had trouble with an inactive liver,'' wrote Mrs. S. Nichols, of 4412 Spencer St., Houston, Texas. "When I would get constipated, 1 would fed a liKht, jliixy feeling in my head. To get up in the morning with a lightness in the head and a trembly feeling isoften a sign that the stomac!-. Is out of order. For this i took Thtd/ortl's Black- Draught, and without a doubt can say I have never foivpd Its equal in an/' liver medicine. It not only cleans the liver, but leaves you in such a good condition. I have used it a long time, when food does not seem to set well, or the stomach is a little sour."

NATION WEEPS AS THE FUNERAL TRAIN GROSSES CONTINENT " 1 ? " ? ? J ? On Uoard Hard log Funeral Train. ? ? (by the Associated l'i > aa.y^Thr Q j lion passed through a Sabbath of mourning as over thy plaint) of Wyo mlng and Nebraska ' aped a funeral train and'a sorrowing people from the Allium to the I'aciiir gathered in churches* humbled before the Divine Providence, which iu infinite wisdom had taken from the republic lie leader, and to pray for strength for the ftuw loader, and the consolation of Mrs, Harding in hor hour of grief. The prayers for the w'fdovv found infme diato answer, for throughout the day she was able to' maintain nor bravoly calm manner. Along a stretch of railroad extend ing directly across the states of Wyi* minx and Nebraska tho people offered their prayers as they Stood silent and with heads bared watching tho funeral train pase. With their prayers for the dead und the living, they offered flowers, elaborately designed floral pieces and bunches of wild blooms to be placed beside the bier~1n the last car where representatives of the army and navy stood guard. Tho pioneers of the woat paid their respects to the memory of Warren Q. Harding. As the funeral train bearing tho body of the late President crossed tho broad etato of Nevada, hurrying on to Washington, men. women and children stood -by tho railroad Bide with heads uncovered, hearts aching and often with misty eyes. President Harding had had tho pioneer much In mind during his ill destined trip. He had visited their settlements in southern IJtah, he had celebrated their achievement in Mea fham, Oregon, and he had visited r what, ho liked to call "the nation's laat frontier" in Alaska. Today was tho ploneer'e opportunity to show appre ciation and love for the dead leader, j and they did. Not alone did these pioneers stand I Hilent and uncovered, but they placed : bouquets and wreaths a bora d the i train in order that there might always j he fresh blossoms in the death cham ber of the laat car. The hearts of those sun-bronzed men, women and children not only ached because of the death of their chief, but they beat, in sympathy for Mrs. Harding. It can bo said without fear of contradiction that no living woman is more popular in tho west than Florence Harding, and the heart of the west wont out to her In hor bereavement. Throughout the day she continued to bear up bravoly iin-. der her great sorrow. Tho funeral train is in every sense all that the name implies. It is silent, deadly throughout. The atmosphere of happiness and com radeehip that filled its coach on the trip west is gone, strangely missing in the conduct of those who are mak ing the journey home. Only the newspaper men astir and the type writer keys clicking news of the f train, break tho silence prevailing. Every two hours a detail of four men. representing the army, navy, and marine corps, pass through the coach es from their car ahead to relieve many of their comrades on death watch in the ear where the coffin rests. The curtains there are raised high at the windows. Persons who gath ered at every point through e'asJMn California. Nevada.

Never was there a higher tribute paid to any nation's dead than was given by these men. women, and chil dren of the states traversed who col lected along the railroad route from deserts, settlements, ranch-houses, towns and cities nearby. The com parison most frequently made by pas gengcrs on the traia who had been : with Mr Harding from Washington] throughout his Journey was with the; ?cene ;r Washington when the un j known soldier was laid at r>t<t in A r lington national ? emetery on armis-. tire day of 1921 Miss Ruth Powderly. the nurse j who had .-ft tended Mr Harding dur ing his !!lne.cs. and Mrs Charles K .

I The fuenral train entered the state of Wyoming near Rawlins, passed our of that stat?> at Pine Bluffs, and then entered Nebraska to pass. .out of that j slate at Omaha. ; From morning to night those on j tho t^rain saw silent gmups of Ameri can citizens. They gathered by the I thousands in T^a ramie and Cheyenne, by the hundreds in tho smaller towns and by twos, threes, and fours by the roadside in the open country. All paid a final mark of ro?jiect to Wari ren 0. Harding. # _At_ Cheyenne the second squadron of the Thirteenth cavalry, the same troops that had provided a military escort for President Harding late in June, were drawn up at attention, hav ing been brought In from Fort Russell. While the train paused, guns of the Seventy-Sixth field artillery at the fort fired a salute hmird dimly from the distance. Warran Boards Train. Senator F. E. Warren, among the closest friends of the late President, hoarded the funeral train hore to go to Washington, lie carried floral offer- 1 lngs from the people of Cheyenne. Cowboys and cowgirls who had for mally welcomed the presidential party to Cheyenrte on the previous vlsff were drawn up at the station to say a final farewell to the late President. The silent groupy along the rail" road, gathered to pay final tribute to the dead chief and to extend sympa thy to his bereaved widow, appeared everywhere in the same reverence and attitude. The same silence was maintained by thone on the train. The same fortitude and courage mark ed the passing of the days for the ^bravely* calm woman in the same coach with the coffin. The Sunday was the same as the Saturday. .It could not have been mQre solemn Nothing could take away the grief i which filled the hearts of each member: of the partv on the_ train.
