Readers of This Paper
Thousands upon thousands of wo
mm have kidney or bladder trouble
and never suspect it.
^ Women’s complaints often prove to
* be nothin? else than kidney trouble,
* or the result of kidney or bladder dis
ease.
I If the kidneys are not in a healthy
* condition, they may cause the other
ur?ans to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back,
* headache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, ir
| rliable and may be despondent; it
* makes any one so.
But hundreds of women claim that
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, by restor
ing health to the kidneys, proved to
be just the remedy needed to over
come such conditions.
Many send for a sample bottle to
see what Swamp-Root, the ?reat kid
ney. liver and bladder medicine will
do for them. By enclosing: ten cents
to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, X.

The Municipal auditorium has been

"When tlie Nebraska Power com
pany was organized,” Davidson said,
in speaking of the exposition, "elec
tricity was looked on as a mild scheme
that would soon prove impractical.
The company has not only grown to
he a necessity, hut the entire industry
has advanced by strides that seem un- I
I believable.
"It is because of the success of the
profession and the success of the
company that this exposition has been

Exhibits showing what has been

Thousands Have Discovered
Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute
Dr. Edwards* Oliva Tablets—tha sub
stitute for calomel—are a mild but eure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. Thesa little olive
colored tablets are the result of Dr.
Edwards' determination not to treat liver
and bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleesant little tablets do the food
that calomel dose, but have no bed after
effect*. They don’t injure the teeth like
ntrong liquid* or calomel. They take
hold of the trouble and quickly correct
it. Why curs the liver et the expense of
the teeth? Calomel sometime* plar*
havoc with the gums. So do strong

"There's one thing certain." liar
i ict siiil as we began to undo the
bundles 1 had brought with me from
the city. "We shall have lo pack all
over again. Some of the things 1
brought with me from the farm will
have lo lie left, for we can’t be ham
pered in that small boat. You can
keep them for me until I get back.”
She spoke as unconcernedly ns if
she were preparing for a week end
trip, instead of an uncertain sojourn
in a South American country, while
she waited for the slow process of
the law lo give her legal guardian
ship of her dead sister's children,
and again I marveled at the trans
formation which those orphaned
childish figures had made in my state
ly, self-centered sister-in law. All the
meticulous details of her sheltered life
appeared to have been scattered. She
was as willing to rough it in this
bizarre expedition as any romantic,
adventurous bride might he in anti
cipating a wilderness honeymoon.
"You won't have to leave many
things," 1 reassured her as we
opened the last package. "Come here,
< hildren, and let me see how many
more articles of clothing we can put
on you and still leave you able to
walk."
Mary Harrison and her brothers
rushed across the room at the invita
tion, nnd the small Roderick's eyes
were no rounder, his face no more
filled with anticipation than were
those of his older sister. She patently
was dramatizing the whole situation
and Harriet, Edwin and 1 exchanged
several smiles across her unconscious
head.
Why l>r. Braitliwaite laughed.
“There!" I said at last, when we
had arrayed every child in two out
fits of everything except shoes, lints
and coats, and-—indeed we had in
vested each with a sweater beneath
the coat—"I can get the rest of their
clothing in one suitcase, if you can
put their brushes and combs and
toothbrushes in your bag and per
haps"—I mentally measured my pack
ing space—"two pairs of shoes in
your bag."
"I'll have to." she said grimly.
"Edwin and I will share a suitcase
for the first time in our lives. What
on earth is the matter, Edwin?'
For Dr. Braitliwaite had doubled
his tali figure up as if he had been
attacked with a sudden convulsion.
Then he buret into the heartiest laugh
I ever had heard from his lips, and
kept his merriment up until Harriet
and I followed the example of the
children, who, with puzzled faces, had
joined him at’the first outburst.
“I was just wondering," he said
chokingly, wiping his eyes, "whether
Harriet was going to make me wear
two auits of everything also."
He gestured feebly toward the
children, who resembled nothing quite
so much as trussed flows, as they sat
;n the chair* where lie had placed |
ihem when we had finished.
"I haven't decided yet," hi* wife
retorted with a grim little aiiille. It
might he a salutarj exiierlepie fur
you, at that. Colne, hoy*, help each
other to get off your overcoat* and
sweaters. We just wanted to see
whether you could wear them over
jour double suits. Here, sweetheart."
"How t un 1 Tell?"
She bent over the small Roderick
and removed hi» outdoor clothing,
gentlj", while I helped Mary.
"Take them all to that corner over
there, Mary." my sister-in-law direct
ed. "It's the farthest away from the
fire." she explained to me, and then
she turned t" her husband briskly.
"if you'll just go through litis suit
ease of yours and see what you can
leave behind," she said, "I'll repack
everything.
The big physician scowled, not ill
naturedly, htit I knew that irritated,
puzzled, masculine frown. Picky

anything about arranging his luggage
save throwing tilings at random into
a bag and crowding them down with a
strenuous right arm. That Harriet

the request. It was an unheard of
thing for the routine comfort of the
famous surgeon to be interrupted.

KEISER APPEAE
COMES UP TODAY
IVahoo, Neb., March 74—Appeal
from the recent derision of the Saund
ers county court appointing a guar
dian for Devi Keiser, 79. whose mar
riage to Mrs. Irene C. Buell resulted
in a suit by Reiser s relatives charg
ing Incompetence, will he held here
Tuesday. District Judge Fred Shep
herd of I.lnroln will preside.
The appeal centers around the re
fusal of the county court to accept
as testimony affidavits by two phy
sicians. testifying Reiser's sanity and
competency. The court drew a dis
tinction between "mental” compr
tenev 'and "business' oompetei
which Kriser'a counsel claims 1* un

O SAID her husband, and the rolls disappeared
by the panful. No wonder—they were light
and fluffy and delicate brown. They had a rich
sweetness about them—good enough to eat without
butter. They hardly seemed to take up any space
at all. When he asked her how she did it, she
simply smiled and said:
"Same old recipe, but I used Omar Wonder
Flour!" _
Baking with Omar Flour gives you a sense of
sureness. Bread, rolls, muffins, doughnuts, cakes
—anvthing you bake—will always have the same
fine texture and lightness -when Omar Wonder
Flour is u<ed,
Omar Is made of the finest selection of spring
and winter wheat, rich in gluten, and milled to
perfection. Use it for everything you bake, and
use it for thickening soups, sauces and gravies.
Order a sack of Omar from your grocer to-day !
You will always find it the same uniformly good
