-:o:
Days are getting so short we
should have eight a week.
:o:-
Old debts would be easy to pay if
It wasn't for the new ones.
:o:
Some women who wear what they
choose don't do enough choosing.
:o:
"Wise is the famous man who does
not overwork his popularity.
:o:
Work is nature's physician, but
most people prefer some other doc
tor. This is the sort of weather the
overcoat salesmen have been looking
for.
:o:
Time may be a success as a wound
healer, but it seldom removes the
scars.
:n:-
A man's height in the social world
Is estimated by the length of his
purse.
: :o:
It is better to be beaten in trying
to do right than to succeed in doing
wrong.
:o:
After all. Buddy, there are more
prizes than "blanks in the matrimon
ial lottery.
:o:
The success of some men is due to
their Iron wills and of others to their
cheeks of brass.
:o:
These earthquakes in the Pacific
ought not something be done to
limit them, too?
:o:
The woman who paid $60,000 for
a fur coat needed it after getting
skinned that way.
:o:
"When a woman says she doesn't
know anything.. aljoutthe tafiff, ahe
imagines the men do.
:o:
For every man who is unable to
stand prosperity there are millions
who are willing to try.
o:o
. An eastern doctor say3 there will
be no more blonds but the brunets
may change their minds.
:o:
If a man realizes how careless he
is about paying back what he bor
rows ho seldom lends anything.
:o:
Any man who is constantly in the
public eye is apt to get an occasion
al rub from the public knuckle.
;o:
After shipping a car of alfafa hay
to Kansas City, a farmer was asked
what he got for it? "I got to grow
it." replied the farmer.
:o:
For down-right gall and triple-
plated audacity, we beg to cite the j
case of a convict in the Kansas peni- '
tectives, to run down missing mur
derers. 1Z
"It don't take a man long to
bag his pants at the knee.i.
and to make a finely tailored
suit look thoroughly disrepu
table that's the man of it,"

But the goes on to explain
that the man who is making
use of o:t cleaning, steaming
and pressing services is keep
ing his clothes in much more
presentable condition than
when he got acquainted with
us. And it doesn't cost much,

Germs are frequently caught on
the fly.
:o: '
A man's crazy bone is just above
his eyebrows.
-:o:
Rents will
houses go up.
not go down until
-:o:-
Look out for the man who looks
out for himself.
-:o:
A nice front porch has prevented
many an old maid.
:o:
"A Chinese will tell you what he
thinks like an American but a
Japanese always feels he is an agent.
even if he is not an accredited one."
-:o:-
What is the use of talking about
freedom of the press? When all the
reporters are afraid to publish the
ages of the people who give birthday
parties.
:o:
You just can't keep some men from
forghig- ahead. For illustration, we
point to the forger serving a term
in Sing Sing who forged several pris
on checks.
We hereby propose that the bloody
county of Breadhitt in the common
wealth of Kentucky, be requested to
send a delegation to the disarmament
conference.
-:o:
Life has man,y compensations. For
instance, when a man becomes bald
headed he usually quits seeing the
things that would make his hair
stand on end.
-o:c-
Although the wholesale prices of
beef and pork are down to the 1914
level, the average retailer is work
ing Industriously to keep the con
sumer from finding it out.
-.o:-
Peggy Joyce has received a mil
lion dollars from her husband, and
the husband seems to think that he
made a prety good bargain in get
ting rid of her at the price.
:o:
Ambassador George Harvey should
realize that a foreign ambassador
does not have the liberty of expres
sion that is accorded by common con
sent to the editor of a political week
ly. :o:
Girls will look attractive to boys
no matter what the styles are, and
mince pie tastes just as good as it
used to, even if there is no brandy
to be put into the mincemeat these
days.
-:o:-
It is said the President uay have
to mediate between the senate and
the house on the tax bill. But after
that mediation is accomplished who
is going to do the mediating between
congress and the taxpayers?
o:o
Another Standard Oil widow has
just died and left a fortune of $29,
261,184 which is just $121,222 more
than Judge Landis requested the cor
poration to pay into the Federal
treasury a payment, by the way,
that was never made.
:o:
Disarmament conferences may
come and, and disarmament confer
ences may go. but the statistics of
history show that the average nation
is engaged in war about one-sixth of
its time. And the statistics of his
tory are mighty hard to get away
from.
:o:
The Red Cross is a worthy organ
ization, starting out among many
worthless ones, like a blackberry in
a howl of milk. You cannot afford to
drop your membership in this organ
ization. When the Red Cross team
workers come to you today and give
you an opportunity to renew mem
bership, you should consider it both
a privilege and a pleasure to do so.
o:o
Housekeeping has been simplified
greatly by modern conveniences. In
olden times water was carried from
the spring and meals were cooked in
an open fire, fed with wood which
somebody had to chop. Nowadays
water Is delivered In pipes, the cook
ing range and coal was delivered by
trucks, and the head of the family
needn't go Into the woods for fuel
He has only to go into debt to get
all modern conveniences.
"We only Bought Rat Poison
Twice, writes Jesse Smith, N. J.
" I threw the first kind away; couldn't be bothered
mixing it with meat, cheese. Then I tried tUt-Snap.
SAY. that' the stuff! It comes in calces, all ready
to use And it sure does kill rats." 35c. 65c. Sl.25.

Honor among thieves Is a myth.

o:o
Some folks will talk of an evil
smelling tobacco pipe and then eat
onions.
-o:
Necessity may be the mother of in -
vention, all right, but
laziness Is
next of kin.
-:o:-
It is said trimming will be less on
winter hats, but cannot hold out no
hope for father.
:o:
"Senator Watson of Georgia is the
only one of his kind in the senate."
Thank God, for that!

If you don't think times are better,
look at the number of dime novels
that sell for $2 each.
:o: 1
You frequently meet a man who
admits he Is broke, but nearly every
girl has a roll in her stockings.
:o:
Wild turkeys are very scarce in
this state, but hunting the price of a
tame turkey is very exciting sport.
:o:
There is no such thing as losing
your business. You lose your head
and loss of business follows Inevita
bly. N
:o; -
Two dozen of eggs will buy three
bushels of corn. This is a mighty
nice time to go into the poultry busi
ness. :o:
The man who has to go out every
few hours to look for a drink also
has to go out every few days to look
for a job.
o:o
During Its firs tyear you fear
somebody will steal your car; dur
ing its second year you are afraid
nobody will.
:o:
Another good point in favor of
disarmament at this time is that we
haven't any wine to waste on christ
ening battleships.
o : o
While we were saving daylight by
setting up the clock what a pity we
did not think to save heat by setting
back the thermometer.
:o:
A New York physician has pre
scribed wine for nostalgia. But most
of the expert brewers never get a
chance to become homesick.
:o: .
A woman golf champion Is suing
her husband for divorce. -She will
hardly have the nerve to charge him
with being teed up too much.
:o:- '
Regarding the mall theft condi
tion, it is safe now to recall the old
familiar line: American marines
fiave landed and have the- situation
in hand.
:o:
It would not be advisable to bet
that the disarmament delegates will
all be back home by Christmas. Prob
ably a better bet would be that E.
Mont Reilly will be.
. :o:
Bandits used a thousand dollars
worth of dynamite to wreck a $10,
000 mail car to get $400 worth of
registered mail. That kind of extrav
agance will get us nowhere on the
road to normalcy.
:o:
The committee of forty-eight an
nounces that its purpose Is to estab
lish government by the people. That
is reassuring. For a panicky moment
we had feared its purpose might he
to establish government by the com
mittee of forty-eight. '
:o:
A newspaper syndicate is trying to
sell a series of Bible stories writ
ten by William J. Bryan. Honestly,
we're afraid to buy it. If Bill knows
no more about the Bible than he'does
about the principles of the democrat
ic party we would be yanked up for
heresy if we printed his articles.

We have often wondered why the

collectors instead of detectives, to

The Washington conference has
decided to do its real work in secret.
Nevertheless, the impression has
. now become pretty general that its
real work already has been done,
and thanks to Secretary Hughes it
was done in the open.
o:o
Perhaps it is just as well that "no
body hasn't forced no press badge"
on Ring Lardner at the disarmament
conference. He might have been
badged and placed at the left of Mr.
Wells. And can you imagine the re
sult if Mr. Lardner had traded some
of his grammar for some of Mr.
Wells notions?

HITCHCOCK TO FIGHT
FOR FULL RATE GUT
Nebraska Senator Plans Pushing,
Amendment to Cut Off Gov
ernment Loan to Roads
Washington, Nov. 8. Declaring
that the compromise offer of the rail
roads to cut the rates on all farm
products 10 per cent in lieu of put
ting into effect the 17 per cent
cut on grain and hay rates is "utter
ly inadequate" as a means of reliev
ing the critical situation that west
ern farmers are up against in market
ing their huge grain crops, Senator
Hitchcock announced this afternoon
that he v.'ill continue his forcing of
the amendment to the railroad fund -
ing bill by means or wlilcn the roads
will be cut from participating in the
5500.000,000 loan of the government
until they carry out the provisions of
the interstate commerce commission's
order and cut the rates the full 172
per cent.
Senator Hitchcock declared that
he did not believe it possible that the
interstate commissioa would accept
the compromise of the roads. He de
clared that he believed ttiey would
go ahead and enforce their own or
der and their lower rate. This must
be done, if it is done, cn Sunday, No
vember 20, which is the date set in
the order.
Answering the request of the Om
aha Grain Exchange that something
be done. Senator Hitchcock today
wired the exchange that he intended
to push his amendment as soon as
the railroad funding bill is resumed
in the senate, where it was side
tracked to take care of the Newberry
discussion.
"It is evident that the railroads
intend to tie this mater up in court
proceedings," Senator Hitchcock said.
"And there is no other day in which
I can so quickly bring this issue be
fore the country as my amendment
which I propose to offer."
The amendment will be offered to
morrow if the funding bill can be
brought before the senate again.
UNDERGOES SEVERE OPERATION
From Friday's Dally.
Yesteray mordning Sirs. . Frank
Newman of this city was operated on
at the Immanuel hospital in Omaha
for an illness of several years stand
ing and which has been giving her a
greater or less amount of trouble for
some time past until the operation
was decided upon as the only means
of giving her any permanent relief.
Mr. Newman came down last evening
