On Monday, November 19, Mr. and
Mrs. Emory W. Johnson will observe
in a very quiet way at their family
heme at 1018 South Thirty-first street,
their golden wedding anniversary.
Four out of five of their living chil
dren will be present, and four grand
children. Mr. Johnson was born in 1844 and
Mrs. Johnson in 1846, making both
past the-three scSr and ten years.
Both came from rugged New Eng
land, Where the early years were spent
in the trades common to those days,
following the civil war, in'which Mr.
Johnson saw almost four years of
hard service, being wounded' at Sa
bine Cross Roads, was in the Red
River campaign and many other
skirmishes, being one of five broth
ers, four of whom were in the army
the entire period.
Immediately following the war he
married Caroline L. Cleveland and
they both followed the injunction of
Horace Greeley to "Go West," where,
with many others, they have helped,
to pioneer and make possible com
fortable living in the great and glo
rious west. Since 1884 their residence
has been definitely in Omaha.
Mr. Johnsoi has been active m
Grand Army circles. Next to his
church the Grand Army of the Rei
public and its interests lie closest to
his heart. One of the pleasantest ex
periences in his life ,has been his
connection with the "Boys of '61"
quartet, composed of four comrades,
all past 70 years of age and boast
ing of over 12 years civil war service
combined. This quartet has been in
great demand with their repertoire of
army songs for pioneer and Grand
Army of the Republic gatherings of
various kinds.
Both Mr. and Mrs" Johnson feel
keenly the sadness of. the homes con
tributing recruits for the present war.
Their own sons are over the draft
age, but they are ready to give them if
necessary, and feel perhaps there may
yet be some way in which the old sol
diers may still "do their bit" in some
sort of guard duty. v
Both Mr. and Mrs. Johnson are the
sole survivors of their own respective
families. With them will be their
children, Willard H. Johnson and
daughters, Edward II. and Ora E.,
all of Omaha, and Hosea C. and sons
of Lincoln, Neb. An invalid daugh
ter of Ingleside, Neb., will b unable
to attend
A quiet day will be observed with
as many friends as may wish to
call during the afternoon and eve
ning.
What was that joke about

You probably remember when Weber &
Fields indulged in that side-splitting'bit of repartee
about a Pullman berth. And how they reminded you that the "up
per is lower" and the "lower is higher." It isn't as much of a joke as it seems. It's
an actual fact. It applies to clothing stores. This Dundee store is an upper berth of

AH the saving isn't due to the rent. We haven't any
credit losses or delivery costs. We run Uiis store "close to the
handle." We don't spend any more expen:e money tl.an is absolutely necessary and
we spend more merchandise money than any other store can. It wouldn't surprise
us a bit if we had to "expand" our spacs pretty suddenly.

"Reputation is what people SAY you are Character
' ia WHAT YOU REALLY ARE."
Reputation i3 a fickle jade, she follows the crowd,
listens to the jingle of money, bestows her favor upon the
worthy and unworthy alike.
Dr. Cook,'of North Pole fame, was placed upon a ped
estal of popularity by reputation and in a few weeks
torn from his lofty place to become the laughing stock of
two continents. -
The opinion of either friend or foe -as to my reputa
tion matters not, but I defy myitterest enemy or' most
intimate friend to say one word against my personal
character.
In my dealings with the people of Nebraska I have
endeavored to give them value received, or more. In my
publicity I have endeavored to stick to the truth, but have
not hesitated to state facts forcibly and bluntly, because
I pledged my word to give the people better dentistry and
lower prices and I have and intend to continue to make
good this promise. . - ' .
I pride myself that no man leaves my office feeling
he has been robbed no woman ever left with a feeling
that she had been treated -discourteously and that no
child who placed confidence in my claim of painless ex
traction ever had cause to feel I had abused his childish
faith in me.-
Had I lacked Character' people would soon learji it,
and success would be impossible.
I have not tried to build my large practice by tearing
down the practice of others but to create NEW patients
by making it extremely advantageous for Jthem to come
to me. ,

Promptness Means a Saving. Price to Advance
as Soon as We Sell 3 Cars v v
The price of Hudson Super-Six seven-passenger phaeton models advances at
least $300 just as soon as we and a few other dealers have disposed of present
stocks. In our case there remain only three cars.
Factory production of cars built of materials bought last year when costs
were from 30 to 60 lower than they now are has 'already been closed. All
cars to be produced from now on are to be built of materials bought in the higher
market of this year.- 4
Other manufacturers increased their prices some months ago. Prices have
been advancedtwice by some makers since the Super-Six has been selling at its
price of $1650 for the phaeton model.
There is no way to escape the influence of increased material costs. All
makers have met the same conditions. Hudson held a temporary advantage be
cause of the large supply of materials bought at prices more favorable than those
who bought later have had to pay.

Motor car demand has steadily in
creased during the past two years. This
fall has been a big buying season. All
Hudson dealers have been short of cer
tain models for more than twp months:
It surely, isn't necessary to add anything about the Hudson Super-Six. There
are now nearly 50,000 Super-Sixes in service. It has led all other fine cars in sales
from the day its deliveries were large enough to count. You can buy your Super
Six now at a saving of at least $300. When stock of three cars is sold, then the
price goes up.
The great wealth that is being accu
mulated by people in all sections, wlio
until recently did not have the money
with which to satisfy even their simplest
wants, is today making a new crop of
motor car buyers. That condition is in
creasing more rapidly than factory pro
duction. Buy your car now to make certain of
delivery.
