REPORTS ARMY
IN GOOD SPIRITS
' "Be of Good, Cheer," Message

ish Premier; Praises the
American Troops.
(Br Aaeoclatad Prene.)
" London, May 4. Premier Lloyd
George, who has returned from his
' visit to France, in which he attended
the sessions of the supreme war coun
cil and went to the front, spoke en-
' thusiastically today of the, American
troops.
"A good number are already there,
said Mr. Lloyd George. "Many more
will pour in steadily during this
i month. The French who saw their
fighting in the battle lower down the
line said they were first class fighting
material, full of courage and resources
and all very keen. .
. The Germans have rendered at
least two great services to the allied
cause,"1 continued the speaker. "They
have accelerated the advent of the
American troops and they have made
unity of-command at last a reality.
The French and British are fighting
in close comradeship, each with full
aooreciation ot me qualities oi me
other." ' ,
"Have you any message to bring
from the army to the people?" the
premier was asked. To this he re
olied:
"The message I bring from the
British armv to the oeoole at home is:
'Be of good cheer. We are all right. "
Of the great battle now going on,
the premier said:
-"I saw General Foch, Sir Duglas
iHaig. General Pershing and other
officers of the higher command, and
ihrv wrre all verv confident. I also
saw a very large number of regi
mental officers and soldiers, who had
actually been in the fighting line dur
in the last six weeks of very strenu
ous work, and their confidence also
was amazing.

After a series of the coldest, damp

and his Spring and Summer cheer.
Ruefully you'll gaze at your win

are all soiled."
Then you'll think of Dresher Broth

2211-2217 Farnam street, Omaha.
You'll say: "I'll send a bundle out
there right away. Let's see, what
their telephone number? Oh, yes,
it's Tyler 345. They certainly have
advertised that number enough for
me to remember it."
And so it goes. But, while you are
doing this thousands of others will be
doing the same thing, so you know
that you can help prevent congestion
by acting early.

Every Detail Right 1
To 'meet war-time demands, Mitchell production
will be greatly reduced this year. But tests and inspec
tions have been doubled, because of this smaller output
In addition, many experts have been added to the
Mitchell staff. These are men who have made their
mark on other famous cars. To scores of parts these
men have added vastly greater strength.
So these are by far the best-built cars ever offered
in this class. In endurance, in performance and in
beauty they excel every rival, as you will concede
when you see thetri. Yet they undersell any other
Sixes of like size and power.
yfe have the latest models now come see them.

Although woven from cotton,
they have a beautiful silk-like
lustre which jiever wears off,
and . the. folds shimmer and
change color in different lights,
just as do the finest India silks. -It
is impossible to adequately
describe the original. , effect
shown in these new fabrics. It
is like trying to describe the ap-,
pearance of a group of daintily
gowned women. In fact, some
of these goods have the delicate ,
tracery of design and soft nu
ances of color seen in the fi
est evening gowns.
"How can such wonderful ef
fects be woven out of cotton?"
is the exclamation made by so
many. .
There are very many varie-,
ties of Orinoka-Sunfast Guar
anteed Fabrics, and the range
is from the lightest, daintiest
goods, such as are used for case
ment curtains, to the- heavy
weaves and patterns suitable

Hartford Saxony Rugs
Buying a carpet or rug is in the nature of an investment ,
In most homes a carpet is expected to last a life time. So
called "Cheap" carpets look cheap from the imoment they are
laid on a floor and they prove their cheapness in a short time.
To spend even a few years in a room with a carpet or rug
that shrieks in its inharmoniousness, its cheapness, is bad econ
omy to say the least. .
No article in the home gets more use "and abuse than
Floor Coverings. Consequently, you cannot be too careful or
critical in selecting rugs. No doubt you have often walked
over heavy, dep pile luxurious looking rugs in hotel lobbies
and dining rooms and secretly wished for something similar.
Bo you know that nearly every prominent hotel is using
