PROSPEROUS COITY CAUSE Bills are being more promptly met in Omaha today than they have ever been in the life of the city. This is shown by the records of the office of the Associated Retailers of Omaha. More people are living up to the agreement entered into with the retailer, which is usually to pay the bill on or before the tenth day of the month following the month in which the purchase was made. Few people realize the enormous credit business the large stores are doing, and what it means to have ac- couhts drag for a period of months, There are large department stores here that have as much as $150,000 to $200,000 in accounts standing on the books all the time. 4 For the last few years the retailers here, through the Associated Retailers of Omaha, have been carrying on a kind of campaign of education seek- ing to instill into the minds of their customers the importance of meeting accounts promptly when due. % The promptness with which bills are met at present in Omaha is be- lieved by the retailers to be partly due to this campaign, although the retail- ers are not slow to admit that it is partly due to the generally prosper- s condition of Nebraska at present, Value of Promptmess. Secretary J. W. Metcalfe of the As- sociated Retailers of Omaha, after making a survey of the card index in his affice giving the credit standings of the customers of the various stores as they are reported to his office, said: “More people today realize the value of indiviiual credit rating than ever before in the history of our or- ganization. More of the customers are now living up to their agreements with the retailer to pay by the tenth of the month following the purchase. The credit buyer formerly didn't real- ize that by holding back money due the retailer on accounts he was mak- ing the retailer pn{ interest on large sums of money he is forced to borrow to do business, and that thus the cus- tomer is directly increasing the store’s cost of doing business. They' now seem to realize more fully their obli- gation for the accommodation they are getting. The retailers are really the biggest bankers in the commun- ity. They are bankers charging no in- terest. They loan out money, not as money, but in the form of merchan- dise,” Brisk Wheat Business Beosts Omaha Receipts Omaha Thursday sold 300,000 bushels of wheat, 100.008 bushels of it going to the seaboard for export. The bal- ance went to millers of the country who are seeking high grade wheat to blend with the' slightly inferior grades. Wheat receipts were heavy, there having been 245 carloads on the mar- ket. Prices were a cent up, the sales being made at $1.49 to gl.SSV; per bushel. Corn was, unchanged to 'a cent higher, selling at 79% to 81}4 cents per bushel. The receipts were forty- one carloads. Qats were unchanged and sold at 4234 to 433 cents per bushel, with eighty-two carloads on sale.

The principal veason for its wonderful merit is that it works in harmony with physiologieal laws, hiding complexion defects, it re moves them.

When the natural pr is retarded because of deficient circul. or nerve tone, mercolized wax comes t6 the rescue and hastens the skin shedding. The new complexion which appears is a natural one, youthful, healthy, exquisitely beautiful.
