MRS. JOHN W. DAVIS
Wife cf Democratic Nominee a
Gracious Woman
| EY HORTENSE SAUNDERS
NEA Scrv.ce Writer
If John W. Davis is elected presi
ident of the United States we will’
I have for our first lady a charming, |
I gracious woman who is slender and,
;j of medium height with blue-gray
'eye;:, sma’d aristocratic features'
[‘■'.nd light chcstru't colored hair i
'sprinkled a bit v.ith g: ay.
She has a dignity t.iat could I
easily be austere at time- but. it
[goes perfectly with her cocl, blond
ypt. W an casj manner
' and a simplicity tha' is most ap
[ D aling.
i It is impoa ibl -to give a correct
[impres jon of Mrs. Davis, seeing her
I just once and s .eing her at this
itinii' when, in spite of her happiness
'and pride in h r husband’s achieve
-1 meat, she is also depress d and sad
j on account of the death of her sis
Iter, Mrs. Percy Goff, who died the
i second day of the convention.
Proud of Husband
Mrs. Davis' <yes filled with tears
instantly at the mention of this
sisii r and rev- aled a very emotional
(nature, capable of deep feeling and
i devotion tor these she loves.
| ; “Os course I'm proud of my hus-
• band,” she exclaimed. ‘‘\W.u
!i wouldn’t be? 1 feel right now just
I ’as any woman in this country would
. i feel if her husband had just been
: nomitialed for pr ; id, nt.”
I "But you must have been sure all
I along lie would win,” 1 said.
' ' This made her laugh. ' Who could
I i have been sure of anything at this
I ’ convention?” she asked. “Naturally
• 1 did not attend ar.y of the sessions;
I but 1 listened over th, radio, and at
no time could I have made any
’prophecies or prognostications.”
y Mrs. Davis was married in 1912.
II Sin: has lio children of her own but
is devoted to Mr. Davis’ daughter
1 , by bis first Mis. William Mc-
Millan Adams, who lives in Den
mark. She and her husband had
planned to sail for England to at
i-e. d the Bur Association in Lon
don and then to visit her there.
Tasteful Dressci-
One glance at Mr. . Davis is
enough to assure you that she would
.dvay; wear the right thing and
look well in all types of c10th..,-.
V, lien 1 saw her she was wearing ;-.
(smartly draped ‘ black satin gown
(and a small black turban. She wcr.-
no jewels but a slender ring of
. ear's and one finger r(
| Sh' has always inieres.. -.1 herself
I m society and philanthropy but
!:•' belongs to no club in New
York, where shp has li- . .j the last
•wo year.:. She is a member of ti e
Woman's De.nccr.it c Club of Wush
.iigton, however. She is an Episco
palian while her husband is a
Presbyterian, and I understand they
attend the Episcopalian church to
gether. She never went to college
out received her education at home.
While her husband was ambas
-1 . ador to the Court of St. James in
London during the difficult period
immediately following the war, she
gained an enviable reputation as a
hostess. She would fit easily and
I naturally into the White House.

j This test has come into wide use

Lady Says She Suffered from a
Burning Sensation, Headache,
Dizziness, Until She Took
Black-Draught.
Signal, Miss.—“For a year or longer
I had indigestion, and had it bad,” I
says Mrs. E. S. Holman, of this place. I
“Everything I ate hurt me. I would i
have burning in my stomach and
smothering spells, and after meals feel
right dizzy. My head would begin to
uche, and I would want to lie down,
but felt I couldn't for I would smother.'
“Unless one has had such trouble,
they don’t know what it is. I was
talking to a neighbor one day and told
i her how I had been affected. She
I told me it was indigestion and to try
! Black-Draught, which I did. I took a
i few large doses and then a pinch after
! meals, and for fully four noffths now
I haven’t had indigestion. I eat what
ever I please and when I please, but
keep up the Black-Draught—just an
I occasional dose.”
When you have a feeling of discom
fort after meals, try the suggestion
above. Thousands of people have
found that Black-Draught promotes
! relief in indigestion by stimulating the
I liver ami stomach to perforin their
normal functions.
