Thrifty People Are Ones Who Own Their Own Homes A dollar will not buy as much of anything as it did a few years ago, which is another way of saying that it is not worth as much as formerly. One reason for this is that money is more plentiful than it was some years ago, due to variety of causes. "In a situation like this," said C. C. Shi mer, secretary of Home Builders, is it not logical for a man to invest his money in a home when money is comparatively cheap, in the expecta tion of profiting by increasing realty values and ;he chance of selling his property after the full purchasing power of the dollar has been realized as it was bifore the war? "We all know that Omaha realty values are stable and must continue to advance. Efficient, men have no trouble in getting good employment and they are capable of keeping the terms of a contract for a lot. Thrifty men will not hesitate to take advan tage of the many chances to own a home." - 1 Garment Sympathizer Starts Disastrous Fire in East Baltimore, March 31.

GREAT DEMAND FOR HOMES IN CITYJDF OMAHA Surprising Is Variety of Causes, Chiefly Shortage of Houses and Influx of New comers, Says Adair. "We have never seen anything like it before," said V. R. Adair, secre tary of the Omaha Loan and Build ing association. "There is a greater demand for homes in Omaha than at any time in the last two years. "In my orinion this is due to a variety of causes: First, to the short age of houses, in consequence of the curtailment of building operations due to high prices of building ma terials; and, second, to an unusual in flux of newcomers following upon the industrial upl:ft which our city is en joying in consequence of the war- made demand for western products. The prevailing high prices are bring ing immense sums of money into the state, which in turn operates to in crease the commerce of every city and village; and, thirdt to tlje confi dence the people have m the stability of Omaha leal estate values. "The situation is a surprise to many," continued Mr. Adair, "who thought that the war would cause a depression of values. Careful observ ers believe that the good times will last for years to come.

One of the most noteworthy fea tures in connection with the introduc tion and sale of Tanlac throughout the United States and Canada has been the very large number of rail road men who have been benefited by its use. Prominent departmental officials. conductors, engineers, office clerks ' in fact, men representing practically every branch of the service, have re ported that they have used Tanlac with the most astonishing and gratify ing results. Among the many to testify recently to the powers of the medicine is Cap tain Cornelius O'Connor, a retired en gineer who lives at 1312 Second street, Lincoln, Neb. Captain O'Connor was an engineer for thirty-two years and his standing and influence are too well kown to require further comment. Captain O'Connor called at the Harlcy Drug company's store and in a state ment regarding the benefits he has derived from Tanlac, said: "For the past five years, or more, I have been so crippled up with rheu matism that I was unfit for work. My hands were so stiff and painful that I could hardly bear to bend, my fingers and my back, arms and legs were al most useless to me. The sufferingf -just can't be fully described and only those afflicted the same way can really understand just what suffering I had to undergo. Of course, like anyone would be in such a condition, I tried many medicines, but all in vain. "So one day a friend of mine, who had used Tanlac,v advised me to try this medicine and it just seemed to go right to the spot. I can hot? testify to the value of Tanlac for it has relieved me entirely and I cheer-; fully recommend it to anyone suffer-" ing from rheumatism and a general run-down condition. I honestly" be lieve it to be the best medicine I Jiavt ever known for these troubles." ' There is not a single portion of the body that is not benefited by the help ful action of Tanlac, which begin its work by stimulating the digestive and assimilative organs, thereby enriching the blood and invigorating the whole body1. In other words it; relieves rheumatism and other constitutional troubles by removing the cause. Tanl lac is a powerful reconstructive tonic and contains certain ingredients which purify the blood and renovates the entire system. Next, it enables the weak, worn-out stomach to thorough ly digest its food, thereby permitting the assimilable products to be con verted into 'blood, bone and muscle. It enables the vital organs to per form their proper functions and makes you feel strong, sturdy and well,, as nature intended. Tanlac is sold in Omaha by Sher man St McConnell Drug Company, corner 16th and Dodge streets; Owl Drug Co., 16th and Harney streets; Harvard Pharmacy 24th and Farnam streets; Northeast corner 19th and Farnam streets, and West End Phar macy, 49th and Dodge streets, under the personal direction of a special Tanlac representative.
