NEW RELIGIONS DIFFER

In their alliances, their motives and their
appeal," said Dr. F. Raymond Sturte
vant. Unitarian -minister at Taunton,
Mass., In his lecture Sunday morning
to the TJnlterians at Turpln's hall. "The
old was allied with magio and miracles,
motlvlzed by fear, and appealed by out-w-rrd
forms. The new Is allied with
science and sense. Is Motlvlzed by loy

CONGESTION' OF OUGAXS.
Advanced medical authorities assert
that auto-intoxication ia the foundation
of most of the modern maladies from
which run-down Americans suffer.
"This condition." says Joseph Von
Trlmbach, noted giver of health aids, and
who created the famous formula of Tan
lac, "ft nothing more nor less than the
slow, sclf-poisoning of the vital organs
produced by the excessive strsln of life
today. The reserve force of the organs
Is exhausted and as they function below
normal, toxins actual poisons are gen
erated within one's own body.
"In the majority of cases the trouble
starts with the stomach. But In any
case the blame lies with faulty methods
of living. When the organs falter In
their duties and become congested, the
body Is tainted with poisons and the
victim ylclda to their Influences, fc'tomarn
and Intestinal troubles and catarrhal af
fections are moat often caused by auto-

nervousness, heudaches, faulty digestion,
poor circulation, constipation and fitful
i sleep and eight out of ten people and
I erpecially Indoor workers are 111 ely to be
i so arretted. "
Tan lac, the great reconstructive medi

Omaha, was created .especially to over

BUT THE SCOTS HAVE AN ALIBI
LONDON, Feb. 7. A dispatch to neu

says:
"There wss a skirmish Sunday between
French and Bulgarian mounted patrols
on the Dolran frontier at salient 22 T, about
a kilometer south of the front line. H
resulted In two of the French troopers
being wounded. The Bulgarian casualties
are not known. This was the first clush

while some f.Oii tug-of-war bugs ap

inarched onto the platrorm and prepared
for a little tug-of-war with the brawny

Ten minutes and forty-seven and one
If Hi seconds later the fcols were ex
Hinlng how It happened.
The explanation runs something like
his the Chbago Scots were not secua
:omed to the tug-cr-wai method of
nisbs. Hack there each man on the
ram alts In a sort of anchor, braced on
ill sides, And merely pulls on the rope
by the, use of the srms exclusively. The
pullets do not move at all, the rope
merely sliding back and forth. The
anchor man has a cog-wheel attachment
hy which he merely pulls up the slack
or lets it out.
The Omaha method Is different. The
men are not braced and can be yanked
off their balance. This happened to the
Scots last night. ,
Thus, although' defeated, and It might
he an Id luiinmliilouaty, the Chicago Scots
have an alibi. While the said alibi didn't
go with the crowd lust nUht, It satisfied
the Windy City clisps.

By winning from the Hcots the Omaha
Panes lay c'alm to the tug-of-war cham
pionship of the world. 1'ntll last night
the Scots assumed thla honor, and, as
nobody came forward to dispute them,
It was taken for granted the honor waa
theirs.
The victory was a cinch for the local
crew. At the discharge of the revolver
both teama put their full strength on the
rope snd this waa the only time the Scots
hehl. The Danes couldn't advance an
Inch.
But a few seconds later Captain Kmll
Toldbod of the Danea gave the signal to
his sexet of strong men to do a little
pulling. Whereupon the Danea proceeded
to cop a couple of feet of rope and al
most sent the Scot anchor man on his
ear. When It was announced ten minutes
of valuable time had passed Csptaln
Toldbod suddenly remembered he had a
date at 10 o'clock, an he told the boya to

WOMEN URGE CIVIL
SERVICE REFORM
Bring- Up Embroglio at Norfolk In
sane Asylum at Argument ia
Iti Favor.
CROSS SWORDS OYER PENSIONS
The embrogllo at Norfolk Involving Dr.
Outtery. superintendent of the Norfolk
Insane asylum, waa used as an argument
for the adoption of civil service reform
at the Woman's club MMnday. Mrs. F.
II. Cole, prominent club woman and civil
service reform advocate, declared that
civil service reform rule would have pre
vented the disgraceful proceedings at
Norfolk because the rule demands an In
vestigation of the moral character and
fitness of earn employe.
"The trouble la that men get positions
In state Institutions because they have a
political 'pull.' " added Mra. D. U. Craig
head. "Positions In atate Institutions
should only be held by those who have
given life-study to their work"
Deplores fSereraor's Vet.
Mrs. Cole deplored the vetoing of the
last civil service reform hill by the gov
ernor and tha fact that the atate chart
ties and corrections committee had not
worked to have the law passed.
"A civil service law would protect su
perintendents ss well as attendants.
Nurses with Immoral reputations would
never be employed. For humahttarlan
reasons, If for no other, because many of
the Inmates are In atate Institutions on
account of Immoral lives at home, club
women should work for thla law," urged
Mia. Cole, who ia also chairman of thla
department for the Oeneral Federation of
Women's clubs, representing several mil
lion women,
"I am not condemning the Institutions
or Individuals, but I am condemning the
conditions which permit these things to
happen In thla enlightened day," ss
scried Mrs. Cole.
( rose Awards l'eln.
Mrs. Cole also advocated a pension for
federal employes, but thla was attacked
in a spirited talk by Mtis. Craighead. "I
am opposed to pensions of any sort. We
should work for better' wages for work
lug men and women so that no pension
need be necessary," aald Mra. Craighead.
Prof. Henry Olerlch outlined President
Wilson's policy of preps redneas for the
club women. The social science depart
