Hope for the Hairless.
Students of human evolution search In rain
for a satisfactory explanation of the luxuriant
locks and whiskers with which and an U were
adorned. The older the ancients grew the more
abundant were the shocks of hair on crowns and
chins. Prints and statuary alike picture them
adorned as nature Intended man to be. The
famous sculpture of Moses by Michael Angelo
depicts the ancient lawgiver crowned with curly
hair and a wealth of whiskers that lend surpass
ing dignity and power to the artist's creation,
feculptors of modern schools accept without ques
tion the hairy truths handed down from ancient
times. Thus In the main doorways of Cologne
cathedral sculptors of the nineteenth century
carved sixteen life-site figures, including the
twelve apostles.' All are crowned with curled
stony hair and fourteen wear whiskers parted In
the middle and curled In corkscrew fashion.
Few persons nowadays are adorned with a
chest protector such as Moses wore. Still fewer
csn boast of thatch and whiskers at the same
time and escape a museum engagement. Man's
dome Is becoming more and more a barren Ideal
ity, fringed with lingering locks as silent evi
dence of vanished glory. The science of balr
ology attributes the loss to the high pressure of
modern living. Scoffers charge It to early piety.
Laymen scratch the spot, heave a sigh, and
search no further. But these do not explain.
Ancients led as strenuous a life as the moderns,
nd were guilty of excesses rarely equaled In our
fay. Ancient religious fervor was quite msrked,
but the evidence of copious lockg gives color to
the suspicion that It lacked the root-elngelng
heat of modern masculine piety.
How then did the ancients escape the brand
of bald pates? The secret of the ages Is revealed
ty Prof. C. M. Cor hern, archaeologist of Phila
delphia. The professor affirms that he has ex
amined a pspyrus, preserved since the deys of
Moses, for vaaklng the hair grow. A marginal
note by an unknown writer added the endorse
ment, "And It does the work, too.
All kinds of masculine money awaits the an

Why Not Use the Auditorium!
In the course of his argument, the attorney
combatting the protest apninst the erection of
the big wooden tabernacle for the Sunday
meetings within the fire limits, Intimated that
if the Injunction were granted the famous evan
gelist probably would refuse to come to Omaha
on tho ground that the conditions of his engage
ment were not met.
It would certainly be regrettable if Rev.
"Billy's" coming depended on whether a par
ticular site for a tabernacle were barred to such
use by our laws, because there must be many
Just-as-good locations within the city outside of
the fire limits against which no objection could
be rained. Further than that, however, Omaha
has Just voted bonds to acquire a fine fireproof
auditorium erected to accommodate Just such
gatherings, and which, we are sure, would be
available for the "Billy" Sunday meetings with
much better assurance of safety and convenience
than any temporary structure that might be
built This capacious fireproof auditorium
should also be obtainable at a rental no greater,
If not less, than the outlay for a temporary
building, and the rental would go Into the city
treasury as a credit to the taxpayers and help
make this new municipal undertaking a finan
cial success.
It "Billy" Sunday feels that Omaha needs
him, as he has made known by accepting the
invitation to come, he surely cannot be stopped
from coming by a fire limit, when he can have
the Auditorium.
A Little Object Leison.
Admiral Caperton Is doing a right nice Job
of police work at Port au Prince, where he has
calmed the turbulence of the Inflammable Hai
tians by the simple expedient of taking away
their firearms. Some little objection waa raised
by the populace, who had Just put to death the
president of the country and the general of his
army, but this was soon overcome. Six were
killed and two wounded In the process, but this
was sufficient to make It apparent to the others
that good behavior were the better part of valor,
so long as the sailors of the American fleet were
ashore. The whole affair has a tinge of un
pleasantness, but comes In the course of Uncle
Sam's duty as the responsible guardian of the
peace In this part of the world. It may take a
long time to establish anything like a good gov
ernment In Haiti, but the people of that Island
have Just had a very impressive object lesson
that ought to teach them to respect the rights
of such foreigners as happen to be domiciled
among them,

Europe After the War.
A year ago speculators as to the duration
and outcome of the war In Europe approached
but on point of agreement It was pretty gen
erally asserted that the conflict might terminate
absolutism and would almost certainly result In
such political changes, both In dynasties and
frontiers, as would alter the entire continental
situation. Twelve months of observation of the
progress of tho war forces the conclusion at this
time that no matter when the war terminates.
It will find the general state of Europe much as
It waa on July 81, IS 14. The same countries
will In all probability be governed In the same
fashion, with the same ruling families to domi
nate the succession to the thrones, and, leaving
aside some of the minor adjustments of boun
dary linen, the frontiers will be practically the
same.
Poles, Lithuanians and others of the "sub
merged'' peoples of Europe have felt a new birth
of nationalism stirring within them since the war
commenced, and have allowed their aspirations
to take the form of such propaganda as brings
attention to the hope they Indulge. Other than
this, they are powerless, and no good reason ap
pears to support the opinion that Russia, Ger
many or Austria will greatly modify the rule
that has controlled Europe since the downfall of
Napoleon. Borne changes have long been fore
casted. For example. It has been admitted by
most students that Bohemia will secure certain
coveted concessions from Hungary when a suc
cessor to Frfnds Joseph oomes to the throne.
The war Is not likely to alter this. It may also
come to pass that Hersogovlnla and Bosnia will
return to their Independent state, and that the
people of Poland and Lithuania will secure some
relaxation of the Iron rule under which they
have existed for several generations. . Turkey
may finally vanish from Europe, but It Is hardly
likely the political or economlo state. s of the
Balkan nations will be greatly changed by the
Settlement
At present Germany would willingly listen
to peace proposals from Its foes, for the Ger
mans are In the better position to enter Into
negotiations. Only when the Triple Entente
allies are either badly set back or shall have
achieved something of marked advantage, plac
ing them on an equal footing at least with the
central powers, however, may we look for peace
overtures from them. It Is time wasted to talk
of overturned dynasties or of making a brand
new map of Europe.
Cookery and the Common People.
Omaha during the week has had a double
dose of Instruction In the art and mystery of
preparing food, both for Immediate consump
tion and for preservation against future needs.
And the attention paid to the experts who came
so far to give us the Instructions Is a splendid
Indtcstion that our home folks are Interested In
the matter. "The Lord sends food and the devil
sends cooks," an epigram as venerable as it la
cynical, very likely originated with a dyspeptic
or a disappointed gourmand. It has, however,
been pretty thoroughly demonstrated that "civi
lised man cannot live without cooks."
Cookery has developed with man's advance
In other arts, and science at Intervals has
deigned to assist in the preparation of comes
tibles for the furtherance of gustatory pleasures.
In this dsy of the world, good cooking Is the
rule, rather than the exception. Improvements
In means and methods have made possible such
cullnsry accomplishments as to render Into com
monplaces of today what our fathers knew as
luxuries. Better ways of dotcg things are con
tinually being discovered and adapted to house
bold economics as to other divisions of man's
compflcated modern existence.
Cookery Is no longer the mystery It once
was, for folks nowadays understand something
oiore of the relations between food and fire,
but the old problem of "first catch your rab
bit" Is with us. Just the same

haa been appealed to help aecure the releaia of
Paul Hudson, editor of the Mexican Herald, held
under arreat ty order of General Zapata In Mexico
City. I hope the president will reapond with suf
ficient promptness and visor to accomplish the de
aired object, for Hudson, aa I know hfm personally,
la a man of remarkable attainments, and, mora than
that. Is a product of Kansaa Joined with a Nebraska
wlfa. For many yenra Hudson has been publishing
an Ensllsh-langunga daily newspaper In Mexico City,
being the news source and vehicle of communication
for American and .English residents, and the link
binding the Americans erucssed In Industrial enter
prises throughout the provinces with the Ufa In the
Mexican capital. Naturally, the efforts of the Dlax
government to Induce American men and money to
develop the country found tha Herald a very useful
adjunct, and give ' It a semi-official status, with
probably also a generoua aubsldy.
Tha successive changes In tha ruling power made
trouble for all the Mexican newspapera, and. most of
all, for tha American newspaper. During tha occupsy
tlon of Vera Crus Hudson, observing the rule of
"safety first," .transplanted his paper over night to
tha seaport, where he could have tha protection of
tha American flag against tha anti-American fremy.
returning later when tha portenta at tha capital were
less stormy. Tha publication office of the Herald
when I visited It soma flva years ago waa In a
building facing a beautiful park that had formerly
been occupied as tha American embassy house, and
served as the headquarters and reodetvous, with a
lavish hand of hospitality, for all English speaking
visitors.
Mrs. Hudson used to go to school here In Omaha
when aha waa known aa Gussle Prloe, being a niece
of tha lata Jaoob E. Markel. The Hudson home In
Me loo City before tha fall of Dlaa. and perhaps even
now. If It has escaped marauding onslaughts, was tha
perfection Of tropical beauty and comfort. Incident
ally, Mrs. Hudson has been an "assiduous collector
of fine old paintings and rare and antique porcelains
and furniture, of which Mexico used -to be full of
never-ending finds.
With reference to tha final consummation of
Greater Omaha consolidation, I have a pertinent re
minder going back fourteen years In the form of a
poetical effusion wtlh which the Rev. L P. Johnson,
then of South Omaha, responded at a banquet there

Waa their distinct vocation.
But found, to try and sell the seme.
Another occupation.

By soma prevarication.
Became a great metropolis.

While to the south a little town
Of little expectation
Began to be and than became
A despised poor relation.

She lacked equivocation.
And were It not for this same town
Of mtghty aspiration

Would lose her reputation.

DREAMLAND'S END.
Springfield Republican.
Where's the end of dreamland can you
aay? . .
Shall It always close In common day?
Just before the end there comes the dawn
And the wonders we would see are gone.
We can find In dreamland restful peace
Where we wander when our labors cease.
Quiet dells and walks, vine-hidden seats.
Fountains aoftly playing, flower-sweets.
Brooks that sing forever happy tunes.
Winds that play forever low harp-tunes.
But beyond, the wistful heart can see
Sheen of distant fields, where tenderly
The sunshine rests, and all the hushed
day , . .
With fragrant breeae , and trees and
meadows sway,
There no meadows ever threat or throng;
It is a land of peace, of smiles and song.
Where Is the end of dreamland? I have
seen
Promise in that far land's sliver sheen;
It must be some fair land of happiness.
Whose charm and beauty we but dimly
guess!
