Jerl, Kruxe 4!0 Hue St, honor. , AT Untie 1000 Bonus on a Business Basis. Examination of the ccrtitiraie feature of the bonus measure as prepared by tlie houe com mittee discloses a very liberal (JUpo.it ion on part of the committee, and a mot advantageous offer to the veterans. Setting the money com pensation at the rate ef $1 pt r day fur home and SI 23 for overseas .rrvice, with maximums of (500 and 625 respectively, the bill provides a system whereby the ex-service Hk.ui may obtain a loan after September 30 of the present year equal to 50 per cent of the face value of his cer tificate, thus providing him with cash. Beginning October I, 19", the certificates draw 4'i per cent interest, compounded scmi-an. r.ually for twenty years, to maturity. Careful provision is made for safeguarding the govern ment, the bank making the loan, and the veteran of hit beneficiary in event of his death, from loss, so that each will have from the certificates full benefit as interest may appear at time of set tlement. The face value of the certificate is in creased with the passage of time, so that it has an added loan value, of 25 per cent in the final year of its period. Only those who were in the service so short a length of time as to be entitled to less than $50 wfll be paid at once in cash. The chief advantage to the ex-service man in the plan as adopted by the committee is that he will be at once possessed of a certificate that it in effect a government bond. White its value as collateral is but half its face, it remains an interest bearing obligation of the United States, and the residue, after paying principal and in terest in case of a defaulted loan, goes to the veteran, his beneficiary, or his estate. The gov ernment will not be required to make arrange ments at once to care for a huge cash outlay, yet it will enable the veterans to get without delay the money so many of them need, and, while shifting the burden to the banks, providing for the certain repayment of any loan that may be made, and finally, giving each veteran a cer tiorate that is becoming more valuable as days go on, an ideal investment, with the attractive qual ity that it is a quick asset because of its loan value. Other optional features of the law remain practically unchanged. If the bill goes through as outlined it will solve the vexed question in a satisfactory manner. One of the chief arguments of the opponents of the plan, that of the' increase in taxation contemplated by the cash payment plan, is eliminated. The country is willing to discharge any obligation it owes the soldier, and the soldiers themselves have no thought of put ting any unreasonable burden on the public. Thus the committee's bill very nearly meets the needs of both sides. Bryan and the Washington Treaties. History is repeating itself. William Jennings Bryan has appealed to his democratic brethren at Washington to cease their captious partisan Opposition to the treaties now before the senate, and to support them in behalf of general world peace. On the surface this is very considerate in Mr. Bryan, and probably no question should be made of his motives. However, memory goes back to the fall of 1898, when the great com moner resigned his commission as colonel of the Third Nebraska regiment, then stationed at Jacksonville, Fla., and hurried to Washington to urge the democratic senators to assent to the terms of peace offered by the Treaty of Paris to Spain. When this had been ratified, Mr. Bryan began his famous anti-imperialism campaign, di rected against the republican policy for fostering the Philippines, a duty thrust upon the nation by the very treaty he had supported. At that time Mr. Bryan was the unchallenged leader of the democratic party; today he repre sent only a minority group. What effect his plea will have may not be known until the issue of the event is ascertained That he is animated by a sincere desire for peace can not be ques tioned, for his public record in this is too'well established to admit of any doubt. Mr. Bryan is human, though, and if he is able to disarrange the Wilsonite plans as they appear under the guise of Tumulty-Cox-McAdoo activity he may obtain a little personal and political gratification from the outcome. The treaties are undergoing every form of test known to an adroit and persistent opposi tion. Should they emerge and they probably will front that remarkable laboratory of state crafty the United States senate, they may be considered 100 per cent proof against partisan attack. Merchants Market Week. The one notable feature about the spring market week, now tinder way in Omaha, is the increased number of buyers. Merchants from all over the territory served by Omaha jobbers are here is greater numbers than recently have been noted, and the first day indicates more liberal purchases. Only one conclusion can be deduced front this. That the long hill has been climbed at last, and business is back on a prosperity basis :s a general opinion. Nothing like a boom, no mere of the careless ordering of goods, regard less of quality or price, the only element being that of delivery, Prudence and good judgment dosmu.t .(I lutim-iuii. l't buy ci ihinf iri the liin tf the late fti4 ef nVpreuwn 1.4 ih entirely orn rf, yl rVmcing the fn fd?nc they hate in thi d ah4 by Nuking Metal .clnl'OHS of good q'talinr in 4 standard tt.iff.

Matthews, late banker of Onulia, now li.trd as Convict No. tL4 in the Nebraska penitentiary. One act of his becomes hint as a man. He owned up, and proposes to lake his medicine. We can nut, therefore, ac ense him of moral turpitude, for he his removed any M int of that nature from In name. What he did appears to have been a tui.take lit Judg ment, a l)Uine btuudrr, committed at a time when a lot of people v.ere jaiting around, los ing their heads and their money, too, in ventures whose outcome was uncertain and v. hose risk was iuch as would deter the prudent from taking them on. Matthews used money entrusted to his care to back a deal that might have turned out im mensely profitable, but which turned out to be wholly bad, If he invested the money of the bank with either knowledge or conviction that it would be lost, he was morally and legally wrong. All that is Irft to the speculative field. What he did was to violate the first rule of safe banking; he tied the money of depositors in a venture the outcome of which he could not foresee, and so betrayed the trust imposed on him. Responsible to those who left their money with hint for safe keeping and proper use, he brought heavy losses on the real owners of that money. Expiation is demanded of him, now, and to that end he is a prisoner. Whether restitution will be made only time can tell. If enough can be salvaged from the wreck of the bank to tcstore the principal to the defrauded depositors, Matthews may be cleared on that account. Yct his case affords one more effective argument in favor of adding restitution to the sentence in cases where property is lost through criminal acts. Offsetting the "Capitalists." Comes from Moscow the interesting an nouncement that Trotzky has summoned a con vocation of "internationalcs" to take steps to counterbalance anything that may be done at Genoa. Just the reason for this summons is obscure. Trotzky, or any one else, knows that the communists do not need the stimulus of a convention to arouse them to oppose any action the forces of order may decide upon. Consti tutionally and inherently, the members of the in ternationale are against anything and everything that savors of order. Excepting always such movements as affect their own peculiar tenets, for we have in connection with the Trotzky call the account of how a group was threatened with expulsion for presuming to question the wisdom of Leuine's present policy. These malcontents were peremptorily bidden to hold their peace or withdraw. Lcnine and Trotzky accepted an invitation to attend the Genoa conference before it was ex tended, presumably noting in the preliminary communication a tentative recognition of the Soviets by the responsible governments. The French stipulation as to the conditions on which Russians will be admitted to the economic council seems to have cast a chill over the aspira tions of the red government. If Russia is re ceived at the Genoa gathering, it will be on terms nearly those laid down by France. This does not suit the powers at Moscow, and so the re port of the call for a communistic assemblage to simultaneously repudiate the work of the confer ence may be credited. The madness of Moscow is reported to be dying out in central and western Europe. Elec tions in Germany, France and England will show, it is alleged, a general weakening even of the mild socialists, with a corresponding decline in the "left wing" element. Russia has taught the proletariat the lesson'needed, and not many are eager to enter into the blessedness prepared for them by the bolsheviki. Experience of the adventurous youth who joined Spain's foreign legion in Morocco will not add to the popularity of such ventures in this land. They were rescued from the Spanish army because of their American citizenship, and now are denied re-entry to the country because they forfeited that citizenship by taking service under a foreign flag. Here is something for the puzzle editor. A "bandit queen" may be a regal figure, when surrounded by her desperate subjects, but she is just a silly girl when she confronts the court to receive a long sentence in the penitentiary. Girls might think of this when tempted to go into the bandit business. Putting the sea serpent into the Congres sional Record is not much more astonishing than some of the speeches that are embalmed in that valuable publication. It was unclubby, to say the least, for a pair of bandits to relieve a police reporter of part of his week's pay. Next they will be holding up the police. A wife whose husband has been missing fif teen years ought to be used to his absence. Maybe that is why she is asking for a divorce. Free garden seed is to be omitted from the Agricultural department appropriation, but this will have little effect on garden sass. Life in New York is decidedly unstable. A game of old maid ended in a free-for-all fight Mr. Bryan may not care much for Mr. Har ding, but he does love the Cox-Tumulty crowd! The Husking M Its Your Datj Siari IlWiihaLmiah SUMMER.

C. W. Johnson. PHILO-SOPHY. A laiy nun, like the seed in a prune, takes up a lot of viluable space. In order to eeonnmie on mental effort many humorists are making their old joke do. Speaking of summer impending, as Mr. John son so poetically does above, if you have saved your Ian year's straw hat you will be juat that much a-head. LOW DOWN TRICK. The fellow who cheats a trusting friend Is worse than a btun or sot. The wretch who steals from a little child Should be stood 'gainst a wall and shot, The brute who robs his mother Mmuld be throwui in the garbage to rot.

In days gone by, ah. dear old days, A man of any stamp Would doze if wide said to him, "My dear; the basement's damp. The place is awful and I wish You'd tend to it." Why he Would yawn and say. "Oh. shucks! Ain't that The limit? Well, Ml see." L'Envoi. But ask that man today about His cellar, and we'll bet He'll shake with joy and shriek. "Whv man, Taint damp, IT'S WRINGING WET!" -Brutus. Hub: I want to get to Lincoln the worst way. Bub: Well, why don't you drive down in a Ford. Our Academy of Immortals is rapidly becom ing organized. Today wc have the following nominations: Dr. I.

Commissioner Dunn's idea seems to he that making one copper do the work of two will re sult also in making each dollar do double duty. The council sousrht to stretch the oolite fund. but Mr. Lambert ruled that they couldn't budget. LONELY. In lonesome be ings catalog. There is the flea Without a dog. THERE'S . A COUPLA SMILES IN THIS. Dear Philo: G. M., meaning "Good Morn ing." I am the smile reporter for the Sure Killem Auto exchange. We are putting out a 22 model, zig-zag tread, at $18,000, with the guarantee that if you fail to have your remains checked over at some hospital or morgue within 10 days, we will pay your income tax, your ali mony pension and your tuition in Hollywood for the next three years. Speaking of the recent poke-fest, well, well. Dan and Tom say it was the rottenest fake that ever happened, while Hank and Jim swear it was far the best "comp" affair they ever lost time to look at. So there you are, but what about the other 5,000 yaps that stand on the precipice of doubt, hey? Speaking of location, Hollywood certainly missed a thriller last Saturday p. m. by not being about four blocks ahead of our sawed-off police squads, hey? Aren't those hold-ups the cute little schemers, when they know when to dive in and collect from the war profiteers, hey? Why not deport the flappers to the north pole, where they could roll their own and freeze alone, and send the saps to the south pole, then give 'em summer rates between camps, hey? Investigator is doing one good thing for the "dry boys," they sure know where to step in and wet up, prices n'everytbing. Ho, hum. If Taylor could only have lived a coupla years longer, then "screened" his own departure, he would have backed these movie barons back to their own respective countries, selling bananas, where they started, hey.

If you work hard and persevering You will get along, I guess, A busy man the thought is cheering, Has no time to dodge success. AFTER-THOUGHT: March came in like a Lion it will probably go out like a Concorder. PHILO. Helping the Knot Hole Club. That somebody with a heart is associated with the St. Louis baseball club is evident from its custom of admitting boys free of charge to a section of the bleachers on certain days. It is good business also. Encouragement given to this so-called Knot Hole club will build up a sup porting sentiment for one of our most popular pastimes. The boys who 'today are admitted free to the bleachers will be the paying specta tors tomorrow. They will feel a loyalty and en thusiasm for the home team which they would not feel had they been harried by the special po lice who have a way of putting in an appearance and driving a fellow from his own particular knot hole at a critical stage of the game. New York Herald. The Ideal Chaplain. "My ideal chaplain, as I like to picture him," he went on, "is the chaplain with a Methodist hat, a Roman Catholic collar, .a Presbyterian waistcoat, a Baptist coat, and Congregational trousers. He would thus combine steadfastness, loyalty, faith, high-thinking, morality, charity and enthusiasm." Col. John T. Axton, Chief of Chaolains. U. S. A. How to Keep Well Br PK. W. A. IVANS Qua.lioa.

"I took that trouble Severn! years ago and found that In a Inree num ber of bnhles tho ordinary cleanainK bath, with tho ordinary precautions In the ordinary heated room, sub jected that baby to enough exposure to ranee the haby'n temperature to drop from a normal temperature of 98.6 to as low ax $3. It Is unneces sary to emphasise that sueh expo sure la not Rood for the baby." The newly born baby can be cleansed with Krcaaes. But bathing the newly born bale was not the only baby welfare sub ject discussed at this medical meet ing. Speakers stressed the need of start lnir the baby off with regular habits if tho supply of breast milk was to be kept up. AVomen know that It la Important that the mother should have enough, but not too much, plain, substantial food If the supply of breast milk is to be maintained. Few know that It is far more important that the mother should get a proper allow ance of sleep and that the baby should be put to the breast at set times and at no other times. Furthermore, the breasts should bo emptied down to the last drops of milk at least once during the 24 hours. If the baby will not thus empty the breasts the Job can be, finished with the fingers. The baby is not properly startefl In life unless his sleeping and eating habits have been established. Many babies perish because of bad habits. Alcohol Blindness. Mrs. J. P. C. writes: "Several years ago there appeared in a woman's magazine an article which claimed that tho cause of many cases of blindness had been traced to the fumes of wood alcohol. "My boy has a little engine, which Is Intended to burn alcohol, but we wish tO be sure his eyesight will not be injured before allowing him to get th? alcohol. i"What has modern science shown in regaird to this?" REPLY. The fumes of wood alcohol cause blindness and other serious disor ders. Be certain the engine does not burn wood alcohol. Dropsy of the Eyeball. Mrs. G. M. C. writes: "1.

REPLY. In glacjma there is too much fluid in the eS'eball. The pain is clue to pressure, from the excess of fluid. At least 'that is tho principal explan ation of the pain. Glaucoma in a certain sense is a dropsy of the eyeball. Like all other dropsies, it is an effect or a symp tom. ' How serious it Is and what should be done about it denpends on the. cause.

They are a great detriment to the people. Scalping banks are compelled to add from 2 to 4 per cent Interest and like tho bankers' guarantee law costs them 1 per cent, all of which is passed on to the bor rower. The guarantee mw only pro tects and enenuTages the hoarding of money at te borrower's expense; JO per cent with six montns- renew als is not a good proposition to any business rrran. Line banks work hardship 'On tho people in many ways. It, Is a banker-made law on the big, business idea and cannot only get charters in any town they wish, but can prevent charters to a prospective competitor. Five per cent "on time deposits is not an act of competition with country bank ers; it is to prevent such money from going direct to borrower at 5 or 6 per cent without being scalped by, tho bankers.

It The old-time mixture of if age Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked- and faded hair is grand mother's recipe, and folks are agairV using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we arc living in an age when a youth ful appearance is of the greatest ad vantage. . Nowadays, though, wc don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the ad dition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound." It is very popular, because nobody can discover it has been ap plied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it, and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what de lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is that, be sides beautifully darkening the Jhair after a few applications, it also pro duces that soft luster and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.

When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore, don't get scared and proceed to load your stomach with a lot of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which removes the body's urinous waste and stimulates them to their normal activity.
