Village Women Have Clubhouse What women can do in a town of 300 when they really g**» started If shown by the lively Woman s club of .Jansen, Neb., which in the 1 r» months of its existence has enrolled nearly one sixth of the entire population of the village, lias bought a club house and is considering a city park. In March, 1 U3. as soon as tho club had adopted its charter, it called a mass meeting of its members to' consider what to undertake. A cyni cal throng of husbands, brothers and sons thronged the background of the I room, to see how the women couldn't io business. The club at once put through a measure to buy and fur nlsh a community club .bouse, for use not only by themselves but by all other organizations of the town which were homeless at the time And the ribald males who came to sneer, remained to contribute. A committee was appointed under Mrs. J. J. Fast which made quirk work of raising subscriptions for the purchase of a vacant business block. \ couple of entertainments given bj the Woman's club, and the assist mce of tlie town hand led by If. T. ira.«t completed the purchase fund. Furnishing the building was yet an other problem. Tlie local lumber com panv came to the rescue with mate ? ial for an Improvised stage and seats in the part to be used as an auditor ium. A piano, dishes, and curtains were purchased by the women with the money they earned by selling refreshments after every entertain ment that came to the town. “Eat mg.” writes Mrs. M. E. Smoot, presi dent of the. club, iH “an important industry" in Jansen: and it seem* to have produced- good dividends for 'he energetic club women. S«* while cities of considerably larger population than Jansen are only talking about a club house, the Jansen Woiuah’s club jvas housed under a roof purchased in conse quence of its own efforts. To he sure, the rcof was not without its draw backs, as became evident this winter when it was almost impossible to heat the building. The town coun cil rented a warmer building, white the first one was sublet to serve as a school gymnasium. The new location, however cozy. lias one disadvantage. It formerly] housed a poultry dealer and bears the legend “poultry” over the door. And town wags dub the structure tlio “Hen House.” Young chickens are •i specialty of the structure, however,j for a good many young girls have joined the Woman’s club and are .

No More Gray Hair -Says Science^ j Wonderful Cleant , Colorless Liquid ft Restores | Original Color n Results In a Week * Science again -has scored a tri umph in the discovery of a very remarkable liquid known as Kolor Bak. If you are gray, just apply this liquid to the hair and scalp and your hair will soon take on the actual color it had in the nast. Not a trace of grayness will remain. Kolor-Bak comes in the form of a clean, colorless liquid, con taining properties which quickly restore the lost color to the hair and give it renewed vigor. And note that the one preparation is for all colors of hair. No special solution required for each color— no samples of hair required. You will find also that with Kolor-Bak the hair has the same shade throughout. It docs not appear streaked, faded or “dyed. ’’ Every scientist, every physician, knows lhat gray hair is hair that has reased to receive its normal supply of coloring matter or pig ment from certain tiny cells (called follicles or papillte) In the scalp, because those cells have become inactive from illness, shock of some kind, scalp disease, dandruff, infection, neglect of the hair or lack of circulation, etc. But no matter what the cause of the grayness, it is simply amazing to see how it disappears when Kolor-Bak is used. It is a proved substitute for the natural pig mentation. Banishes dray Hair " ■ 1 ■■■.

Press Club Tea. __ % Prize winning manuscripts from the recent contest of ihe Omaha Press Women's club were read at a tea of the club yesterday afterriouir at Urey Jfocks, the home o,f Mrs. Henry 1 loorly. Two plays were read, "The Play wrlj.i," a tantastic , comedy, by Miss Henrietta Itees, regarded by the judges as the most original of tHo entries in the dramatic class, and "The King of Culture," by Mrs. J. 0. Masters, adjudged the best to per form. The former was an allegory presenting the difficulties of the au thor in getting together the rebellious material of his play. The latter was a sparkling bit of satiric comedy cen tering about a culture bureau. .Mrs. J. M. Peyton read “A Witness fog the State." which took second place*in the short story class. It was «. moving story uf a man and a dog. .Miiaka and boot logging. Th« Press club will meet with Mrs. Mason at the Morris apartments a week from next Tuesday to hear the other manuscripts.
