Home to Be Built 1
by The Omaha Bee
Composite of Ideal Houses
Will Be Erected; Cost and
Details of Erection to
Be Explained.
By WILL M. MAI PIN.
Romo men and women build houses.
Other men and women build homes.
There is a world of difference be
tween a mere house and a home. A
house may l>e an ornate structure
of marble and steel, yet lack all the
essentials of a home. A home may
be a modest little building set in an
out-of-the-way place. It all depends
on the builders.
Into the real home Is builded all
the hope* and aspirations of those
who expect to occupy it. A wish and
« prayer iiooompanies every brick
laid In place, every nail driven, ev
ery door and window set. I.ove
builds into Its walls and ceilings and
partitions the sweet and tender me
mories that will last while life lasts.
The Omaha Bee ;s going to build
just this kind of a home for some
family. It may be your family. And
you will be privileged to watch the
building, to follow it from excavation
to the last decoration at the finish.
It will be your privilege to watch all
of the material, ascertain the exact
rost of every bit of It, to know the
labor cost to the last penny. It Is
going to be a real house and a real
home.
Choirs Site Selected.
The she selected Is In one of the
choice resident sections of the city.
The building to be erected thereon is
going to be a model home. All the
material entering Into' Its construc
tion will be of the best, so that the
future owner, watching Its erection
will have the satisfaction of knowing
that lie can depend upon its lasting
finalities. Tt is not going to be an
m nate structure, but it must be har
monious in interior and exterior fin
ish. It must be commodious and con
venient and have all the modern
conveniences. In short it is going to
be the home you have longed for and
often dreamed of owning. This time
your dream may come true.
It Is going to he known as The
Omaha Bee Model Flresafe Home.
The house is being built by The
Omaha Bee for the purpose of shoXv
ing home owners and prospective
home owners of Omaha the latest and
most Improved methods of building
a house that will be flresafe.
The fear of fire Is an ever present
fear. How to guard against fire, how
to build to make the fire danger a
remote possibility. Is the lesson that
xrill'be taught.
Composite of Ideal Home*.
Tts builders will try to embody the
eomposite ideal of all ideal homes.
That may sound like an ambitious
undertaking, and It is. But it It dn
undertaking possible of accomplish
ment -
But The Omaha Bee Is not going
to undertake, this all by itself. It will
be assisted by the building profession j
and other business men of Omaha
■who are interested In the city's devel
opment and the good work of making
It a city of homes and home own
ers.
The preliminary plans of The Oma
ha Bee, flresafe home have been
drawn. Tt will be erected on Fifty
sixth street, between. Cuming and
Hurt streets, a block and a half west
of the Dundee car line. It Is a beau
tiful site. The home will face the
east, with a southeast exposure, with
attached garage on the north, of the
Spanish type of architecture, stucco,
tinted like old Ivory. From its fine
eminence the lucky owner may look
out upon a magnificent view.
The excavation is almost complet
ed. In a short time you will be Invit
ed to attend the initial ceremonies
marking the beginning of actual con
•structlon. The exact date has not
yet been decided, but it wiii be early
In January. It will have to be un
usually cold to halt construction, for
modern building engineers have
learned how to cope with old Kfng
Winter. ,
I'ians to be Explained.
As tho building plans progress tB%y
will be explained in detail. But you
will have a better method of follow
ing construction than merely read
ing about it. You can spend much
of your time watching the workman
on the job. You can ask ail the
questions you please, inspect all ma
terial at any time—in short, you can

practically superintend construction.
What The Omaha Bee wants Is your
Ideas about what constitutes a real
home.
Now listen. Here’s the real news.
The readers of The Omaha Bee are
going to be told how they can finance
a home of their own. It may not be
as big or as costly as the one The
Omaha Bee will soon build, but It will
be a home.
Why Is The Omaha Bee building
this model firesafe home just this
way? Why Is It using Just this kind
of material? The workers on the Job
will tell you if you ask them. The
Omaha Bee will tell you as the work
proceeds. When this model flresafe
home Is completed it will be thorough
ly furnished and kept open two
weeks for Inspection. Then it will be
sold.
To make this campaign of better
building complete In every detail,
The Omaha Bee has secured the
services of Allan II. Stubl^s of Kan
sas City. Stubbs Is an engineer who
is thoroughly familiar with better
building and his assistance Insures
the success of this home. Through
Stubbs’ wide experience The Omaha
Bee is able to give to the people of
this city the benefit of the experi
ence of many others In the building
of Ideal homes.

There is no reason for your baby
to look or feel this way.
CONSTIPATION means
SUFFERING
Poor little thing! It can t tell
when the milk is wrong, or it
has a little cold, or any of the
hundred things that might
happen to one so young! But
Nature can—and docs. The
baby becomes constipated, it
cries, it frets. I nat is the warn
ing to look out. Danger and
disease are lurking in the body.
All the poisons are bottled up
in that little frame. Relieve
this condition at once or you
may have a very sick child.
Dr. Caldwell’s
SYRUP PEPSIN
The Family Laxative
—relieves constipation ami
brings the little one back to
health. It restores the bowels
to normal activity and so gent
ly that baby joyously laughs.
It’s Nature's relief for consti
pation—Egyptian senna, pep
l
sin and pleasing aromatics in
a pleasant tasting liquid com
bination prescribed by Dr.
CaltKvell for years in his ex
tensive practice and used i
throughout the country for
over 30 years.
Gentle Aa Nature—
Pleasingly Sweet
Nor is baby the only one who needs
it. As effective for old as for young.
Your bowels should act at least twice
daily. Do they? If not, assist Nature
as millions are doing annually. Buy a
bottle of Dr. (Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
now and use as directed. More than
10,000,000 bottles sold annually.
It Is sold everywhere medicine le
eold end guaranteed. Try It at our
risk. Your druggist will return your 1
money If It falls to do as promised

How to Keep the Face
Young and Attractive
The way to ward off old age Is not to
f«*ar it. not to allow one's self to be op
pressed by the dread of advancing years.
Use only legitimate preventives and
avoid trying experiments with prepara
tions that have not stood the test of
time. An entirely safe and very effective
way to keep the complexion young-look
ing end beautiful is to apply ordinary
mercolized wax at bedtime, using it like
eold cream, washing It off in the morning.
Toll gradually absorbs the withered, faded
cuticle, which is replaced by the more
youthful, pink-tinted underskin. One
ounce of this wax. to be had at any drug
store is enouxh to completely rejuvenate a
worn-out complexion.
