Society Finds “Johnnie”
Good Home in Nebraska
Here is ‘‘Johnnie," once a ward of the Nebraska Children's Home society.
The upper picture shows hint as he is now, a happy youngster of t> years.
The lower picture shows him afler lie was given a bath and dean garments
when taken into the society's receiving home five years ago.
Five years ago ‘‘Johhnie'* was home
less—an unfortunate.
He was taken into the home of thp
Nebraska Children's Home society
and soon afterwards he was adopted
by a good family in the western part
of the state.
“Here .is a picture of ‘Johnnie*
now,” wrote the adopted mother to
the campaign hedaquarters. "Let the
people of this state see how he looks
now and how he looked when taken
into the home. I wouldn't take a mil
lion dollars for him."
“Worth a Million.”
“Johnnie,'’ once a homeless, unfor
tunate child, now “worth a million”
to a childless mother! Isn't the so
ciety worth while—taking care of
parentless children and childless
i parents?

Declares Organization Is Built
on Ideals Which Inspired
Founders of the
Republic.
Sam Reynolds, past commander ofj
1 the Douglas county post of the Amer- j
ican Legion, told members of the Con- ’
tinental elub yesterday noon at lunch- .
eon in Hotel Fontenelle that the le- j
sion is built upon the ideals which in
; spired the founders of this republic.
"We have very definite ideas of
what constitutes Americanism,” said
' Mr. Reynolds. "We do not like to be
! referred to as ex-servico men: we
ore service-men and we are still per
forming a service. We have a pro
i gram and during the four years of
j our existence we have accomplished
things. There are now 1.000.000
members in the legion, with 3.000 in

Don’t Let That Cold
! Turn Into “Flu”
Rub on Good Old Musterole
That ccld may turn Into “Flu,"
Grippe or. even worse, Pneumonia,
unless you take care of it at once.
Rub good old Musterole on the con
gested parts and see how quickly it
bryigs relief.
Colds are merely congestion. Mus
terole, made from pure oil of mus
tard. camphor, menthol and other
simple ingredients, is a counter-ir
ritant which stimulates circulation
j and helps break up the cold.
As effective as the messy old mus
tard plaster, it does the work with
out the blister.
Just rub it on with your finger-tips.
You will feel a warm tingle as it
enters the pores, then a cooling sensa
tion that brings welcome relief.
36c and 66c, in jars and tubes.
Better than a mustard plaster.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It’s Easy—If You Know Dr.
Edwards’ Olive Tablets
The secret of keeping young Is to feel
young—to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels—there's no need of hav
ing a sallow complexion—dark rings und*r
your eyes—pimples—a bilious look in your
face—dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doc
tor will tell you ninety per cent of all
sickness comes from inactive bowels and
liver.
Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician in
Ohio, perfected a vegetable compound
mixed with olive oil to act on the liver
and bowels, which he gave to his patients
for ysars.
Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, the substi
tute for calomel, are gentle in their action
yet always effective. They bring about
that natural buoyancy which all should
enjoy by toning up the liver and clearing
the system of impurities.
Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are known
by their olivo color. 15c and 80c.

Mr. Reynolds referred to the work
being done by the legion to promote
hospitalization for thousands of serv
ice men. disabled physically or men
tally.
"The Douglas county post sent men
to 3,000 jobs last y$*r.” he added.
"We dispensed $12,000. not as charity?
but to help members who were in
need, a sort of whacking up propo
sition. Some of the men who receiv
ed Christmas baskets from up a year
ago last month were out last Christ
mas season taking baskets to others.
“Last year we helped with medical
and legal assistance, paid rent, sent
coal, buried babies and otherwise
helped. And we did not solicit one
cent from the public. We gave en
tertainments that had an amusement
value. We do not intend to ask the
public for money.
"As on* of the many little in
stances of the work we are doing
through the local legion headquar
ters, I will cite a case that was con
cluded during last week. About six
months ago. otir adjutant, Ilarry
Hough, observed a man at the labor
department and asked if tt was true
that he was an I. W. W.
"The man said it was true and be
came rather hard about it. Hough
said ha would get the man work just
the same, but wanted to know wheth
er he carried a red card. The man
explained that when he went into Ahe
'service lie was promised his job back
%rhen he came home. He returned
home from war without money and
found Ills job not there for him. Ho
became fertile soil for the I. W. W.,
wlu) signed him up and he took a
card. Through our labor department
he was given steady work and his
appearance changed. Hast week he
paid for a legion membership and tore
his I. W. tv. red card to pieces and
renounced that organisation."

through the Fanama canal during
