PUT POSTMASTERS * ON FIRING LINES Democratic National Commit- tee Sends Out “Wilson Work- ers' Manual” to the Civil Service Employes. LOOKS LIKE LAW BREAKING N New York, Oct. 3.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Postmasters are sought as aides in pro-Wilson campaign by the democratic national organization, ap- parently in violation of the law and the declaration of the leader of the democratic ticket, as evidenced by material received by William R. Will- cox, chairman of the republican na- tional committee. A fourth-class postmaster, who knows that he is pro- hibited by statute from politic: ' activ- ity and who respects the law, sent the democratic national committee’s communication to Mr. Willcox. . It is a pamphlet issued by and “with the compliments of the democratic national committee organization bu- reau” It is entitled, “Wilson Worker's Manual,” and is rubber stamped, “sample, additional copies on re- quest.” The envelope has “postmas- ter” printed on it in large letters and the name of his postoffice is typewrit- ten. The envelope is postmarked at the Grand Central Station branch in East Forty-second street. “This is an evidence of direct effort to procure violation of the law by federal employes for the benefit of the democratic national ticket,” said Mr. Willcox. “It is not the first we have received. It belies the promises and the public utterances, of the man for whose benefit it is done. I do not deem it proper to direct special -circulars to civil service em- ployes and that has not been done by this committee, This action taken by the democratic national ocqmittee or- ganization is directly contrary to the spirit of the civil service and ought to be condemned by all right think- ing persons.” School Board Will Watch for Defective Teeth of Children The board of education last evening approved the use of the following schools for social center purposes un der the direction of the recreation board: Dundee, Central Park, Miller Park, Monmouth Park, Kellom, Cas- telar, West Side and South High. Social center work will be started for the season within a few weeks with a staff of supervisors. The board referred to a commit- tec for consideration a request from the Omaha Hebrew club, that ab- sence of children on account of seven Jewish holidays should not be counted against the absentees in the marking of their standings. Two-room annexes were ordered built at Clifton Hill and Walnut Hill schools. Favorable action was taken on the proposition that children' be exam- ined for defective teeth and referred to the Free Dental Clinic association in cases where the parents are un- able fo pay for the service. The school nurses will make the examina- tions. The superintendent of buildings was authorized to act in connection witl: a request from many Central High school boys who wish to store their bicycles in the basement of the school during school hours, Union Chiefs Admit " No Sympathy Strike New York, Oct. 3.—Tacit admission of the failure of the general sympa- thetic strike in New York in behalf of the striking street car men, was made’in a report late today to a con- ference of labor leaders, which dis- cussed the general situation. The leaders recommended that every union member in the city be assessed $1 for the benefit of the subway, elevated and surface car employes who are on strike in Manhattan, the Bronx~and parts of Westchester county. Police announced that only 408 men had responded to the call for a general strike. More than 100,000 members of the United Hebrew tfades returned to work after their three-day holiday, as did 3,100 brewery workers. South Omaha Has Two Lively Fires Fire destroyed two buildings Tuesday morning in South Omaha and caused $4,000 loss. It began at 8:05 o'clock by the explosion of a gasoline stove in a restaurant on the first floor of a two-story frame building at 4924 South Twenty-sixth. The blaze had too much of a head- way to be quenched when the fire- men arrived. Above the restaurant was a stock of second-hand goods, not insured, which quickly became fuel for the flames. An empty two-story building next door caught and was gutted, The buildings were owned by Cas- per Horwich, 3 Windsor School Boy Dies @phtheria Harold Jasperson, 6 years of age, died of diphtheria at 2511 South Thir- ty-fifth avénue.

Homage was paid to Mrs. Josiah Evans Cowles of Los Angeles, presi- dent of the General Federation of Women's clubs, who was the guest of the club.

Hitchcock, a member of the re- publican national advisory committee, who devoted several weeks to a study of politics in the east before coming to Chicago. He said that the sentiment in New York state outside oft New York City, appeared to be overwhelmingly for Hughes. In New York City, he said, there was considerable doubt as to the situation. Favorable reports also were received from West Virginia, Hitchcock said. Plans for Hughes' third and final trip of the campaign through the west were discussed to- day at western headquarters, It is expected that Mr. Hughes will leave New York Monday, October 9 and speak in Maryland, West Vir- ginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Oklahoma, Nebrapka, North Dakota and South | DakotE, although the itinerary has not been completed.

He was riding on the running board of an auto owned by the Nebraska Auto Filling station, when that machine collided with ancther. Ehrenrech was thrown to the roadway. A deep cut over his right eye was his most serious injury. \Dr. Shook attended him, iike a Boy :at 5b With Vitality— Doctor says Nuxated Iron is greatest of all strength builders—Often in- creases the strength and endurance of d folks 200 per cent NEW YORK, N. Y.—Not long ago a man came to me who was nearly half a century old and asked me to give him a preliminary examination for life insurance. I was aston- ished to find him with the blood pressure of a boy of 20 and as full of vigor, vim and vitality as a young man; in fact, a young man he really was, notwithstanding his age. The secret, he said, was taking iron—nuxat- ed iron had filled him with renewed life. At 30 he was in bad health; at 46 carewor nearly all in. Now at 50 & miracle of vi and his face bea youth. As I have said & hundred times over, iron is the greatest of all strength builders. If people would only ‘throw away patent medicines and nauseous concoctions and take simple nuxated iron, I am convinced that the lives of thousands of persons might be saved who now die every year from pneu- monia, grippe, consumption, kidney. liver and heart trouble, etc. The real and true cause which started their discuses was noth- ing more nor less than a weakened condi- tion brought on by lack of iron in the blood. Iron is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to change food into living tissue. With- | out it, no matter how much or what you eat, your food merely passes through you with- out doing you any good. You don’t get the strength out of it and as a consequence you become weak,¥pale and sickly looking, just like a plant trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron. If you are not strong or well you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired, Next take two five-grain tablete of ordinary nuxated iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see for yourself how much you | have gained. I have seen dozens of nervous, | B@bbling Over | Taking Iron Did It e, nervous in two weeks’ time. ( run-down people who were ailing all the while, double their strength and endurance angd entirely get rid of all symptoms of dys- | pepsia, liver and other troubles in from ten to fourteen days’ time simply by taking iron | in the proper form. And this after they had in some cases been doctoring for months without obtaining any benefit. But don’t take the old forms of reduced iron, iron acetate or tincture of iron, simply to save a few cents. You must take iron in s form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated, like nuxated iron, if you' want it to do you any good, otherwise it may prove worse than uselegs. Many an athlete ‘or prizefighter has won the day simply because he knew the secret of great strength and endurance and filled his blood with iron before he went into the affray, while many another has gone down to inglorious defeat simply for the lack of iron.—E, Sa M.
