Kills, more gener ally known as just “Bill KlUs." For the l ist 10 years Bill Kills lias been assistant commissioner of the i'hamber of Commerce. That s his regular job and that's how he keeps tho proverbial wolf out of his back yard. But a job is just a Job, and a good secretary is hard to get. As a result, every time Kllis connects with at; organization, a committee or any kind of a movement he is elected sec retary by unanimous vote as soon as At)t r.RTK'EMt.NT. A Skin Like Early Girlhood Real Beauty Come* When Stuart s Calcium Wafers Are Used to Rid Face of Pimples, Black heads, Blotches and Such Blemishes. After using Stuart's Calcium Wafers you will note that they remove from the system the waste products c that ?o often k- t into the akin to cause pimples, black head*. blotches and such complexion dis- ) f igurerocnt s.

Because of its germ destroying properties, nothing has ever been found to take the place of this sulphur preparation ‘.lint instantly brings ease from the itching, burning and irritation. Mentho-Sulphur heals eczema right up, leaving the skin clear and smooth. It seldom fails to relieve the torment or disfigurement. A little jar of Howies Mentho-Sulphur may be ob tained at any drug store. It is used like cold cream. somebody finds his name on the mem bcrship list. For instance, here is a list of WUliain A. EUis. organizations for which Ellis act? as secretary as a regular diet: Omaha Manufacturers’ association. Joint Good Roads committee. Merchants’ Market Week com mittee. Trade Extension committee. Public Highways committee. Municipal Affairs committee. When the fight for suburban police, patrols was carried on a few weeks ago It was to be expected that “Bill” Ellis would be conscripted into ser vice as secretary. About the same time a committee of improvement clubs was formed to Investigate the merits of a fee for municipal golfers. Ellis was promptly named secretary. The Missouri Navigation league, the Hay Exchange, the Omaha & Decatur Missouri River company. Fontenelle Celebration association. Women's War league. Women War Workers. Central Park church are other organ izations served at one time or an other by Ellis as secretary. By some strange freak of fate the City Concert club had a secretary. So Ellis was made a vice president. But no precedent was established; Ellis has never been able to land such a soft berth since. During the war Ellis was secretary or chairman of committees and organ izations loo numerous to mention. He has been the principal worker on dozens of legislative committees ap pearing before the legislature in Lin coln nnd the city council In Omaha. “If one ever gets Started as a secre tary.” said Ellis, "he always gets the job at every meeting he attends. He can't escape it. A\ hy? Nobody else wants the job. I guess.” Refore be became assistant com missioner of the Chamber of Com merce, Ellis was an accountant in the Union Pacific headquarters. Ild is a shark at figures and adds up a column of figures as long as your arm at a glance. He is uncanny o.t locating errors in bookkeeping. And probably that's the principal reason he is in such demand as a secretary. Married Life of Helen and Warren I _— ■ ■ ■ ■—1 1"" Warren's Display of Temper When | (he Lights Go Out at a Company Dinner. “yea—five years—anti not one cross word!” boasted Mrs. Allison, beam ing across the table at her husband. "That's very wonderful,” murmured Helen. "Not many wives could say that!” "Henry’s so considerate, never ir ritable or impatient. If lie does get angry he just keeps still.'' ••I'm afraid Warren doesn’t show his displeasure that way,” admitted Helen, flushing slightly. “You bet I don't,” grumped War ren, deftly carving the crisply browned chicken. “When I get riled I let you know it! White meat, Mrs. Al,lir,on?” "Dark, please. I think it runs in the family. Mr. Allison's father was the same way. His mother saj*s she never saw him really angry hut once in 20 years—anti then it wasn’t at her. Yes, thank you, some of the dress ing.” „ „ . “How about you, Allison. This about your size?” serving liberally of both white and dark. "Oh, not so muon. Only a little of the white meal, for Henry—and no dressing,” instructed Mrs. Allison. “Anything rich doesn't agree with him.” Mr. Allison accepted his censored portion without comment. "Won't you try some of this pickle 1 relish? It's homemade—” Helen’s recommendation of the relish ended in a startled cry. Sud denly they had been plunged into abysmal darkness. ■■The lights are out,” she gasped. “That's » brilliant observation,” snorted Warren. “That fool girl has blown out another fuse.” "lie careful, dear, don't stumble over anything,” at the sound of bis chair pushed back. “Ain't no lights in the kitchen,” eamo Anna's excited voice from the pantry door. "No, the percolator ain't on nor nothin'—they just went out," "Get a candle and a fuse,” ordered YVarren, unconvinced. The fuse box, inconvienently placed above the top shelf in the hall closet, was barricaded by band-boxes. “Why the Sam Hill do you pile all this stuff up here?” fumed Warren from the rickety sttfp-ladder chair. "Havo to clear out every time I put a fuse In!” “Dear, there s no place else to put them. We've so little closet room—” "Can't I help?” asked Mr. Allison, as they all hovered about (he door. "Take some of those blooming boxes,” Warren handed them down. | Helen, holding high the flickering j candle, was unhappily conscious that J Mrs. Allison, standing behind her, was j peering into the crowded untidy j closet. “Tho trouble's not up here—these j fuses are nil right. Must be a Mow-1 out jn the meter. Hand me up those boxes!” “Then you can't fix it?” despaired Helen.' “No. the darned thing's looked. We ll have to 'phone the company.” “Oh, that happened once befo-e — and it was hours before they came!" "Blamed awkward! What's their number? Bring that candle in here?” company on the wire prom ised to send a man at once. “We'll have to make the best of it.” Warren cut short Helen’s ner vous apologies to their guests. “Get out more candles so we can seo to eat.” “Dear, I'm afraid we haven't any! I—T—” “Kh? No candles? Told you to or der some last time we had a blow out!" “I know, but I—I forgot!” “Forgot? Not a darned thing to do yet you ean\ order a few candles! If I ran my office as you run this house, you'd be taking in washing! Of all—” "Dear, please don't” tugging at his coat under cover of the darkness. "We can get along with this one candle." encouraged Mrs. Allison. “Something's burning!” anxioused [ Helen. “Don’t you smell it?” "My coat!” exploded Warren. “You held that damned candle right against I tny sleeve. Why don't you look what ! you're doing?” “I'm sorry, dear, I must've tipped It,” glad the darkness concealed her embarrassment. "This hot wax was running down on my hand.” Back at tho table they placed the one dim candle in the center. “How'm I gonna see In the kitch en?” protested Anna. "Can’t you use the candle you clean the iron with?” suggested Helen. In the feeble candlelight the dinner progressed under difficulties. “W ell, there s some compensation for eating in tho dark. Here's where I take my drumstick in my first," an nounced Warren. “Henry, are you eating any of that dressing?” Mrs. Allison peered across at her husband's replenished plate. "It's delicious, but you know it doesn't agree with you." "This here won't set up?’ Anna res ppeared witli the candle misshapen from its iron-waxing service. "Then we'll have to give you this one," worried Helen, fearful of An na's carelessness. "I’ll fix that," taking an antique candlestick from the sideboard. Hut the lopsided candle, refusing to stay in tlie candlestick, had to be propped up between two silver salt cellars. “It's dreadful this should happen when you're here,” apologized Helen for the dozenth time. # "Might’ve happened to any of us,” was Mr. Allison’s courteous" hut trite reassurance. "I remember once when we had guests—" "Oh, quick! The table cloth:" The canle had slipped from the supporting salt-cellars. Warren snatched it up, and Helen, with a knife scraped the grease from her best cloth. "Darnation!" ns the hot tallow drip ped on his hand. “Where'll we put the blooming thing?" Thrust into a. glass tumbler the re bellious candle spluttered out. "Oh. this is too dreadful!" Helen was almost in tears. The candle relit and carefully prop ped up in the tumbler, once more shed its reluctant glimmer on the sombrous dinner party. "Ves, you may bring the salad. Anna," as tho girl entered. "You'd better fasten back that door—it'll give you a little light in tlie pantry.” "Henry” was cautioned against the alligator pear salad, as ho was not supposed to have anything "acid.” | But Helen noticed lie took advantage of the dim light to dispatch his salad as he had the chicken dressing. "Dear, call up again! Say we've guests for dinner—they must come:" I "Fat chance of hurrying up that bunch! But I'll punch 'em up again,” he threw' down his napkin. "W hat s that number?” "S420. Be careful, don't bump into anything." A heated argument over the library phono and Warren returned with an irate, "Rotten service! Haven't even started anybody! Their men are all | out:-’ "Sunday night—I knew it'd he a long time,” bewailed Helen. "And this candle's almost burnt out. Can't we think of a thing that'll give us a light?” "Rig up Pussy Mew as a battery,” chuckled Warren, shoving her out of his chair. "She's electrical enough. Ought to do something for her grub." an idea'." Helen started up joyously. “That tin of canned heat 1 use for my curling iron when we travel.” “If you can find it.” skeptically. With a match Helen explored the bathroom medicine chest. Snatching , up the friendly red labeled can, she groped her way back. "Well set it on a plate. There!" prying off the lid with a fork. By the thin blue flame they fin ished the mocha souffle, which for tunately Mr. Allison was allowed to eat. “We'd better have coffee in the library so Anna can clear oft before her candle burns out.” “First thing in the morning I'm go ing to order a box of candles,” grunt ed Warren, carrying gingerly the lighted can us they tiled into the library. “We won't be caught like this again! If you can't order your supplies—" “Dear, don't start on that! I'll get ADVERTISEMENT. ADVKKTISEMEM1. Beautiful Hair in a Moment Girls! Try This!

Doctors Wanted To Operate Mrs. Qaillon Tells How Lydia E.

I had heard of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound and often saw it advertised in dif ferent papers where some women h?d suffered just as 1 did and got well and strong again by taking the Vegetable Compound. I decided to see what it would do for me, and before I had finished the fourth bottle I was much better, the weakness stopped and the severe pains in my sides left me. 1 am now much stronger and do my own work and work in the factory besides. 1 am still taking the Vegetable Compound and give it all the praise.”—Mrs. Nellie Quillon, 17 Morris St, Muskegon, Mich.

Let this trial off er pro ve for you at our expense whether more Iron in your blood will make you well and strong Physician tells why you must have Iron to give you Health, Strength, Energy and Endurance. TAcknffron in your Mood produces the most terrible of mil de vitalizing weaknesses and makes a man or woman a physical and mental weakling, nenr ous, irritable and easily tired out,” says Dr. J a me* Francis Su 11 i van, formerly Physician at llellevue Hospital (Out door Dept.) and the Westchester County Hospital. "It is the iron in your blood that take* up oxygen from your lung*. The food you eat contains carbon.

Blood examinations by physicians all over the country show that three people out of every four you meet lack IOO<fc iron in their blood, often due to modem methods of cook ing and modern diet. For centuries scientists tried in vain to produce iron like the iron in your blood and like the iron in spinach, len tils and apples. At last the problem was solved, so that you can now obtain this newer form of iron from any druggist under the name of j “Nuxated Iron." which is ready for immedi ate absorption by the blood the moment it enters the system. A single daily dose of this newer form of iron gives your blood the op portunity of assimilating in concentrated form, iron like the iron that you could get by eating raisins, apples or spinach. It is often remarkable what a tremendous amount of pep. vigor, force and energy a little more iron will give a person whose blood is deficient in this magic-like substance.
