RECIPE TO DARKEN " GRAY HAIR This Home Made Mixture Darkens Gray Hair and Makes It Soft and Glossy. To a half pint of water add: Bay Rum Barbo Compound. Glycerine These are all simple ingredients that you can buy from any druggist at very little cost, and mix them your- \ self. "Apply to the hair once,a day for two weeks, then once every other 4 week until'all the mixture is used. A half pint should be enough to | darken the gray hair, and make it | soft and glossy. It is not sticky or | greasy, and does not rub off. It should make a gray‘haired person look 20 years younger.—Adv. i I TODAY'S BEAUTY HELP | You can keep your hair at its very best by washing it with this simple, inexpensive shampoo, which cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly of all the dandruff and dirt and leaves it a clean, wholesome feeling: Just use a teaspoonful of canthrox dissolved in a cup of hot water, afterwards rinsing thoroughly with clean water. One finds that the hair dries quickly and evenly, is unstreaked, bright, soft and fluffy, so fluffy in fact that it looks more abundant than it is, and so soft “that arranging it becomes a pleasure. All scalp irritation will disappear and the hair will be brighter than ever before.—Advertisement. ACHES AND PAINS Don't neglect a pain anywhere, but find out what causes it and conquer the cause. A pain in the kidney region may put you on vour back tomorrow. Don't blame the weather for swollen feet, it may b an ad- vanced warning of Bright's disease. A pain in the stomach may be the first symptom of appendicitis. A creak in a joint may be the forerunner of rheumatism. Chronic head- aches more than likely warn you of serious stomach trouble. The best way is to keep in good condition day in and day out by regularly taking GOLD MEDAL HAARLEM OIL Capsules. ' Sold by reliable druggists. Money refunded if they do not help you. Beware of substitutes. The only pure im- ported Haarlem Ofl Capsules are the GOLD MEDAL.—Advertisement, Cured His RUPTURE I was badly ruptured while lifting a Trunk #everal years ago. Doctors said my only hope of cure was an operation. (Trusses did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years \ have passed and the rupture has never re- turned, although I am doing hard work as a carpenter. There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to sell, but will give full information about how you may find a complete cure without operation, it you write to me, Eugene M. Pullen, Carpenter, 199-C Marcellus Avenus, Manasquan, N. J. Bettef cut out this notice and show it to any others who are ruptured —you may save a life or at least stop the misery of rupture and the wofry and danger of an operation.—Adyertisement. - HU FROM LOFT: HURT: THEN WELL | How.a Man’'Who Landed On Wood Pile And Was Sore From i Head to Food Found Quick Relief. ). U Once upon a time Edwin Putnam, who lives in the quiet, pretty hamlet of Wendel Depot, Mass., climbed up into a loft to get some building mate- rial, just as many another man living " in the country must often do. Sud- denly he slipped and fell. Ten feet below was a pile of wood, knotted and gnarled. It was a nasty tumble, and Mr. Putnam was injured pain- fully in the back, he was covered with }:rn:uel. and was sore from head to oot. \ The next day he bought a bottle of Sloan’s Liniment which had been recommended to him. Within a very few hours the soreness had vanished and the lameness had disappeared. He was an active man once more. Sloan’s Liniment can be obtained ot all drug stores, 25c, 50c and $1.00. _Sloan’s Liniment HILLS PAIN fl ' Sales Manager i ¥ Wanted For our Florida territory. Must invest $700.00.

When called to a case of la grippe, the patient is usually seen when fi':s fever s rreseni. as the chill which occasionally ushers in the disease, has practically passed away. Dr. Bell then orders that the bowels be opened freely with saits, “Actoids” or citrate of esia. For the high fever, severe headache, pain and general soreness, one anti-kamnia tablet every three hours is cuickly followed by complete reliet. Ask for A-K Tablets. They are also unex- celled for headache, neuralgia and all pains. 0 CIUTT 0 SRS © IRETES © GRS ’ 4 =3 BELL-ANS Absolutely Removes Indigestion. Onepackage provesit. ®5cat all druggists.

An Explanation—Arthur Daley of Florence wants it known that he and his brother, Henry, who were ar- rested in their uncle's home, 5102 North Fortieth street, are neither plumbing thieves nor burglars. The police found them in the house and took them in on suspicion, but the court discharged them. Johp Daley, the owner of the house, says they are welcome to visit his home at any timé and says their arrest was a mistake. Lambert Explai;s Rights of the City Under the Contract Corporation Counsel Lambert has received a number of inquiries relative to sections of the five-year street lighting contract which refer to the status of the city’s lighting fund, if the contract should be susfained; also the rights of the city to acquire the present plant. during the life of the contract. “I have been asked whether, if the contract should be sustained, money now expended for gas street lighting could be claimed under this contract. I am told that statements have been made at meetings that if the contract goes into effect, the electric light com- pany could claim all of the lighting fund, including the gas street lighting appropriation. According to specific terms of the contract, existing con- tracts cannot be disturbed. The con- tract could in no way affect the gas street lighting,” Mr. Lambert ex- plained. . The corporation counsel made it clear that should the city wish to ac- quire the plant, during the life of this contract, the property which would have to be acquired would be that located within the city limits and not outside of the city, as is being stated by speakers representing R. B. How- ell's campaign against the contract. W.C. T, U.

Vaw/ Nostrand, who came to Omaha when it was a “small town of mud and smaller houses,” died Wednesday morning at 1:10 o'clock in her home, 1101 South Thir- tiech street. She was one of the real p‘oneers, a woman whose strength of character and mind made her a lead- er in the community. She was 83 years of age. Mrs. Van Nostrand was a native of New York City, where she' was born May 15, 1833, She traces her ances- try back to the time when Peter Stuy vesant ruled the sturdy Dutch set- tlers of Gotham. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs, William Stoutenborough, had twelve children and she was the seventh. Born in a family of refine- ment and wealth, Mrs. Van Nostrand carly had the inclination and means to indulge a taste for literature. Edu- cated in two p{i\'alr schools, -the young girl soon became mistress of a fund of learning. Married in East. On October 17, 1835, at Brooklyn, N. Y., which was then a city by it- self, Miss Stoutenborough was mar- ried to the late James W. Vah Nos- trand. She was then barely past 22 years of age and her husband was only a year older. The young couple remained in Brooklyn for two years and then decided to migrate to the west. It was on April 19, 1857, that they landed in Omaha, which looked then “like the picture of a frontier hamlet in some old, old history,” ac- cording to Mrs. Van Nostrand. It.was not long before the happy and able young ecasterners won a foremost place in the community. Mrs. Van Nostrand was a tireless worker for church and charity. She had the gift of conceiving clever plans and the more practical art of executing them successfubly. It was she who had the distinction of found- ing the first Sunday school in the Episcopal church- in Omaha. This was in 1858, The calendar of her private activi- ties will never be known. Friends say she was always about some work of charity. Hgr public affiliations are better known. She was for al- most a quarter of a century vice president of the Creche. She was oné of the charter members of the Tenth Street Mission and was ac- tively associated with the establish- ment of the Woman's Auxiliary. She started the Woman’s Auxiliafy at St. Barnabas church, was active in the Needlework Guild, was secretary of the Merciful Savior society for sev- eral years and was a member of many social clubs. The funeral will be held Friday at St. Barnabas church.

Sweesy, aged 88 years, who came to Omaha in the early '60s, died Wednesday morning at her home, 4918 Davenport.street. The funeral will be held Friday after- noon from the home.

Both women were na- tives of New York and both emigrated to Omaha when this was only a prairie town. By dint of unceasing endeavor, each made a name for her- self in the community. Mrs. Sweesy is survived by lher husband and two sons, Frank of Okla- homa and Charles C. of Chicago. She was an active member of the Presby- terian church, Mr. Sweesy, until his retirement some years ago, was quite active in the real estate business and built quite a few blocks of apartment houses and residences here.
