William Williamson Page, lector of St. John's Episcopal church at Cornwall, N. Y., is the sole survivor of the Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee's personal bodyguard. Captain Page commanded Company D, scouts, guides and couriers. Thirty-ninth Cavalry, Army of Northern Virginia, from the Wilderness to Appomattox; and his memoirs of intimate association with Lee are soon to be forthcoming. Mr. Page is of the old Virginia family, related to Lee and to the present United States ambassadors, Thomas Nelson Page and Walter Ilines Page, at Rome and London.

In his rectory at Cornwall are two priceless possessions, the* desk on which Cornwallis is said to have signed the terms of surrender, and the clock beneath which Thomas Jefferson courted Betsy Burrell. This clock was made at Williamsburg, Va., in lG8.r), and belonged to -Gov. John Page at Roosevelt, the seat of " the Pages, where Jefferson, Washington, Monroe and other famous Virginians were visitors. Tradition had it that the joining of the wood at one corner of the clock formed a profile of Jane Bird of Westover, the descendant of Edward III, whose portrait is ift'the Page gallery on Thirty-first Street. Mr. Page found out at Tiffany's that the clock had been covered since with 17 coats of varnish. A workman came to his breakfast table one morning in great excitement and said thai the profile had been revealed. The present writer has seen it?something that would seem to be absolutely unique in woodworking. "History is made up of the radiant lives of men, rather than of the dramatic deeds of legislatures and armies." said Mr. Pnrrp'a iifoir?r?o friend, the late Bishop Potter, and'the venerable rector delights in the following tribute of his to Lee: "The bishop addressed a gathering of both the Blue and the Gray. A previous speaker had made his task difficult by a long discussion of state rights. The bishop told of being a lay reader on the estate of George Washington Parke Curtis, Esquire, while a student at the theological seminary of Virginia. Curtis' daughter was the wife of the then Col. Robert E. Lee, United States Army. 'I looked down,' said the bishop, 'and there was old man Curtis beginning to nod.

Some of his friends bathed his wounds with whiskey, there being an abundance of the same on hand and# a total absence of water?a circumstances never explained by any of the historians, sacred or profane. After his wounds had been well laved, the old fellow opened his eyes, raised up, and said: "A leetle of that is good for the inside as well as the outside" and, after drinking a few cupfuls, began to mend and lived on to a green old age, a circumstance with which the liquor, of course, had no connection as is proved by the statistics.?

I I MORE DISASTROUS RESULTS FROM PROHIBITION (From The Manufacturers' Record) The Manufacturers Record has repeatedly called attention of late to the serious destruction that has come upon ] a number of business interests by reason of prohibition. It so happens, however, that these particular business interests that have been ruined by prohibition are the jails and penitentiaries and convict camps. They | are practically being run out of bus- i iness by prohibition. As we have previously stated, any community that desires to keep its j jails and penitentiaries full should never encourage prohibition, for wherever prohibition is introduced and the < law rigidly enforced there is such a decrease in the number of convicts that jails and penitentiaries become almost vacant. The American Highway association of Washington has just issued a brief statement under the heading, "The ] Unique Quarters of a County Engi- ! neer." in wVlinVl a annnifin ' t inuavianull is given of the decrease in the demand , for jail room by reason of prohibition. 1 Indeed, so great has been the lessen- J ing of the convicts mentioned in this 1 particular case that road building by j convicts labor must almost cease, be- i cause there are not enough convicts to j do the work. 1 The liquor interests may well hold ' this up as a shining example of the 5 effect of prohibition, since it would be : as good an argument as much of the , stuff they put out. They may hold up 1 their hands in horror and say, "Here is a case where the number of convicts has been so lessened that the construction of roads by convict labor cannot proceed," and on this base an argument for the limitless use of whiskey in order to increase the number of convicts. In its statement, the American Highway association says: "Early in the year the State Highway Commissioner of Washington, James Allen, made a report concern j t ing convict-labor conditions for road work, which forms an interesting paragraph in the 1917 Good Roads Year Book. It reads as follows: " 'While the law for prison labor remains unchanged, the number of convicts available for road work has decreased since the prohibition law went into force, to such an extent that there is no likelihood of any road work by prison labor during the ensuing two years.' "This comment on the effect of aridity on road conditions in the Rhododendron State, startling though it is, is confirmed by the announcement not long ago that the engineer of Chelan county was in the jail at Wenatchee, not because of misdemeanor, but because as a result of prohibition, there were no longer any guests there and the sheriff considered the county might as well use the vacant room as ~ - -^c>' Bn'ju?^ixuLJ??ce." | IF YOU are troubled with dandruff, itching scalp, and your hair coming out, we ask you to try Me, JI ViEmjr TRAOK MARK HAIR TONIC on our guarantee that it will give you relief and satisfaction or money refunded.

Now It it 50, after taking Nuxated Iron, a niir- it nclo of vitality and his face beaming hi with the buoyancy of youth. As I have n said a hundred times over. Iron Is the H greatest of all strength builders. If It people would only take Nuxated Iron si when they feel weak or run down, in- t? stead of dosing themselves with habit- al forming drugs, stimulants and alcoholic Ii beverages I am convinced that in this nl way they could ward off disease, pre- lr venting It becoming organic in thou- h 9ands of cases, and thereby the lives of k thousands might be saved who now die ci every year from pneumonia, grippe, b kidney, liver, heart trouble and other rr langerous maladies.
