IS TfTE OMAnA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY. OCTOBER 4, 1P0.T n s.Ma.aaaiaM..M Things in the drug busings. Until within the last few years druggists, generally, were content to eit idly waiting for a customer, and when one came in he would look wine and iui mediately ie up the customer with a view to making enough profit from the ningle sale (o pay thn day's expenses, for fear he would not have another chance. The drug business at that time was not on a competitive basis. One druggist neither knew nor cared what his neighbor was doing or whether the price of staple goods in his line advanced or declined, his selling price was always just the same. The department stores in some of the large eastern cities took advantage of this condition and put in drug depart ments and sold drugs, patent medicines, etc., on a business basis, or according to what they cost. We did not wait for Omaha department stores to take this step, but too'k it ourselves, which is the reason why we are known as the "Pio neer Cut Price Drug Store of Nebraska.' We are in the drug business for business, not for effect or for ethics! 1'or instance, why do we sell IYruna for less than any other Jl patent medicine? Because more of it is sold, we are warranted in buying it in larger quantities for less money and give the customer the benefit, which is right We think, Kow some of the moss backs' of the profession, in the drug business, don't'like the new order of things, and they are spending more time and money in schemes to crush the "dragon cutter' than they are in improving and taking care of their own business. We don't take any stock in their schemes nor in combines or trusts, and for that reason we propose minding our own business and taking the chances of being allowed the privilege of go continuing, and these prices provi that we are selling goods for a little less money than some would-be cut price drug killers. tf.71 Horllcks Malted Milk U IS tl.T B 8.

YATES, It Is admitted that the engagement be tween Mies Goelet and the duke of Rox burgh Is a love match and their friends boliove that It will prove te be a happy one. If go. It will be an exception to the general rule pertaining to foreign mar riages. While many of these unlo. have been ideal, others have turned out Unhap pily for the American wife. Outside of domestic questions millions of dollars of these dowrlos have been squan dered by the titled sons of Impecunioui sires. The rase of the countess of Ifappen heim, who was Miss Mary Wheeler of Philadelphia, is a case In point. Count Pappenhelm, a Bavarian of Impov erished fortune, quickly ran through most of his wife's dowry and when she stopped his allowance he applied for a divorce. Everybody remembers the unhappy mar riage of Miss Eva Mackay, daughter of the late John W. Mackay, to Prince Ferdinand Colonna Dl Oalatro .of Italy. Her father settled upon her the Income of $2,600,000. The couple settled In Rome. Within a year the prince began gambling and soon all his wife's Income and savings were exhausted. She refused to give him more and she ap plied for a decree of separation. Thn sensational divorce suit of the Coun tess Festetlcs De Tolna, born Haggin, was the end of still another conspicuously un happy International marriage. The countess Is the daughter of Ixuis T. Maggln, the New York mining millionaire, and was given $2,000,0X1 as a marriage por tion. A Yoathfnl Bride. When she married Count Rudolph De Festetlcs of Austria In 192 she was but 18 years of ag:. After a long yachting cruise on the Tolna, built by the bride's father for the young couple, the countess left her hus band and came to America from the orient, tho count returning to Austria. Divorce proceedings were instituted by the countess In Sin Francisco and an absolute decree was secured In 1901. Miss Ilaggln has since made her home In California. But, generally speaking, the American girl Is . far-sighted, and when the worst comes she Is willing to pay the piper. Un fortunately the noble piper dees not always play the marrluge tune In an alluring way. Tho story of the marriage of Anna Ooukl to the marquis de Castellans and his ex travagaut expenditures Is familiar to al of course many foreign noblemen are gentlemen and they treat their wives, American or otherwise, as ladles. But most of them have notions about conjugal duties which are not held either on the Connecticut, the Hudson, the Wabash or the Mississippi. Among the other than the considerate gentlemen are noblemen who continue their bachelor days with the money thy have married or who develop tyrannical tempers and brutal manners. It Is true that hus bands of this character are not unknown In this country, but ,they are fortunately scarce. Many wealthy American girls who have brought Immense dowries to their husbands are living happily with them abroad. It is surprising lion- often they have been, to all appearances. fairly successful. Mary loiter (Iady Curson) Is reputed to be happy and sh- certainly mskei a gwd vicereine. Tho case of Consuelo Vander Nit, who undertook the rehablliti'i in of the Marlboroughs, appears satisfactory. Concerning Miss Martin (Lady Craven), Catherine ' Ooddard (now Prlnrets Ponla towskl) and many others sufficient data for passing Judgment is lacking, but they are said to be living happily with tin Ir husbands.

It should be added that In every case these unions have proved happy and no leading titled family has given less material for society gossip. But such happy marriages are an excep tion. It is said that over $100,000,000 of the $200,000,000 In dowries which American girls have scattered among titled degenerates of Europe have been spent in the entertain ment of profligate companions and to pay the debts of antenuptial depravity. .

Hist the ON fending; KJasers. Hunting for kisses with searchlights Is the latest detail of the metropolitan park police of the classic city of Boston. Never did park police have a better hunting ground, either, than the historic River Charles, where on pleasant Saturday after noons and evenings as many as 4,000 canoes have been known to glide in peace, har mony and, in the past, with much demon stration of affection between the canoeists and their guests. Yes, the park police, married or single, with or without mustaches, put in the hours between dusk and midnight hunting for kisses and searching out clinging em braces. They are not hunting klstes for themselves, and with the young women of Riverside, Newton and Waltham in their present state of mind It Is Just as well, lor the most handsome policeman of the park flotilla could not hope a single favor. - They are bunting for kisses with searchlights that they may arrest the kissers and drag them into court. Boston haa decided that kissing on the Charles la a crime, and that even reclining side by side In a canoe Is worthy of a $20 fine. The Metropolitan Park commission has drawn up a new set of rules and regula tions to govern the conduct of canoeists, and almost every hand which has ever held a paddle is raised in revolt. There are seven rules in all. but it is No. 1 that Is causing consternation in some quarters and a liberal amount of Indignation in all. It reads: "No person shall annoy another person by the use of threatening or abustve language, or loud outcry, or solicit any subscription or contribution, or have possession of or drink any Intoxicating liquor, or play any game of chance, or have possession of any Instrument of gambling, or do any obacene or Indecent act, or have possession of or use a flashlight, searchlight or dark lan tern." The remainder of the rules have caused no objection on the part of the vast ma jority of canoeists. In fact, the whole great, terrible thunder cloud centers In the police interpretation of what "an Indecent act" Is. Holding hands, kissing, snuggling together In the bottom of the canoe to lis ten more intently to the band concert, rest ing a tired head in the lap of lady fair all these things, the police declare, are barred on the Charles by rule No. 1. Canght la the Aet. To prove It they arrested Matthew A. Peterson and Flora Smith. A policeman In citizen's clothfs paddling a canoe sneaked Into the little cove In which Peter son's canoe was drifting. The hand of the fair Flora was being firmly held and the police flashlight disclosed It all. The young man and the policeman had a heart to heart talk and rather, stormy things were said. "I've warned you." said the policeman. "You've got to sit up decent in your canoe or Ihi arrested." Five minutes later he slipped back Into the cove and again his light flashed. It was a dreadful thing he witnessed. Actu ally, so the police story goes, they were kissing. It made the Puritan blood in his Pilgrim veins the forefathers of this par ticular "cop" landed at Plymouth arid his foremothers at Salem -it made his blood run cold. and. as a member in good stand ing of the Society of Colonial Wars, he swooped down and arrested them. Ut tliew stormed and said things, and fair Flora clung tighter and cried, but It Was all in vaiu. '1 he police light of Boston ID) AN0S.

The Judge, with surprising chivalry, for Bos ton, argued, It is said, that the getting together In the canoe was mostly the young man's fault. There is not a finer spot for canoeing In the whole country than the Charles river, a peaceful stream, winding, flanked with shady banks, with little half-hidden coves heie and there, in which canoes float snugly. Close to the stream, In several places, the city has band stands, where concerts are given several times a week. There are between 4.000 and 4.500 canoes on the river and often a fleet of 1,000 gather for a band concert. There are great boat houses, where canoes can be stored for n nominal fee, and young, folks from all parts of the city Journey to the canoeing grounds by convenient trolley cars. An Ancient Institution. . This hss been going on for years and years, and today the Charles river, with Its canoes. Is as much an Institution as the "Pop" concerts or the public play grounds ;r poor children. No statistics are avail able, but one Is safe in saying that thou sands of happy young homes In Boston and the suburbs owe their being to Charles river canoes. They are narrow little shells, these canoes, and they turn over most easily in the hands of one not used to their tricky ways. "You must sit still," warns the canoeist as he places his young woman among the pillows und rugs Just forward of amidships. "If you don't you'll get wet." Then he paddles to a shadowy spot and anchors by sticking a paddle Into the mud and casting a rope about it. He knows how to move to the center of the canoe without even tilting It and when he gets there all is very snug and comfortable. "Remember, you must not move," h gives added warning, and then, perhaps, ha kisses her. "You are a horrid, horrid, man!" the Boston girl exclaims, perhaps, hut she does not struggle nor even move. The canoe Is her excuse and his advantage. And If she does move. It all comes out the same In the end. The canoe turns over like a flash, and they are both In the water. He swims ashore with her. Saves her life. In deed, and they are engaged. No end of Boston homes began this way. "Is this glorious home making institution to be sacrificed?" is the question that Bos ton is asking today. "It surely will be If the police keep up their pernicious crusade," Is the general verdict. The polU work this way: As soon as a crowd get settled on the river the police canoes, to the number of twenty-five, put out on their prying expeditions. The po licemen . are dressed In plain clothes, and go up and down the river peering into each canoe, to see if the occupants are obeying the rules to the letter. rollre Commands. There is a blinding flash of light, and then the stern order: "Come, sit up there with your lady friend." Thla command, coming from a person without . evident authority, brings forth sharp rejoinders on the part of the canoeist. "Sit up or be locked up!" says the police man, showing his badge, and the canoeists usually prefer the former, though their in dignation knows no bounds. The canoe crowd has found one way of getting even. As soon as a police bout is detected word is passed along and every one geU apart. Then the policeman comes In for no end of Jollying. "What a pity he can't get a girl to ride with him!" 'Oh. he's only good for hand holding In the kitchen. He'd be afraid to move If he had a girl aboard." And then the band, iu obvious league with youth and beauty, strikes up "Please Go Way and Let Me Bleep" end the police man paddles on amid Jeers and catcalls.

Then, side by side, but in adjoining craft, they lolled in com fort, and bade defiance to the police. There is another phase o tnla canoe re form and the consequent publicity, aa a young Boston bank clerk found the other evening. For more than a year he has been going with the belle of Newton Centre, one of the aristocratic suburbs. At least one evening a week they spent canoeing on the Charles. He called one evening after having been away on vacation for a month. "My daughter will never be able to re ceive you again, Mr. Jones," said the girl's mother, who came, in answer to his card. "Why, what what's the matter?" he stammered. "Canoes!" exclaimed the mother, rising to signify that the interview was ended. "But but I don't understand!" he cried, Charles river!" said the mother, wltn withering scorn. "Whatever is the matter?" he begged. "Police!" from the mother; and with that she opened the front door. As he left the porch he could hear some one crying In the second story front. He was very much at sea until he met the girl next day at luncheon, an engagement she arranged over a neighbor's telephone. "It was Just too dreadful for anything!" she cried In exaggerated girl English, for, contrary to general opinion. Boston girls talk Just like other girls. "It all came out In the papers when the police got to arrest ing couples." "What all came out?" demanded the man who had been away. "About the kissing in shadows and re clining together In the canoe under steamer rugs and holding hands, and all the other dear things. Mother read about it, and then she swooped down on me. I'd rather have talked It over with a park policeman. She was dreadfully angry. " 'So this Is what you do whea you go off to the Charles!' she cried. 'You and that precious young acamp from the bank. And you told me the canoe was so tricky that you had Jo alt perfectly still, and I sup posed you meant one In each end of the boat, and I thought it was as gjod aa a chaperon. Now the police come along and say that you all act most shamefully. The law says It is Indecent and the law is right. To think that such a disgrace should come to a daughter of mine!' "She says you can never come to the house again, Charley, and isn't it Just too dreadful?" "I've been thinking of asking you some thing for a long time, little girl," began the Injured canoeist, toying with a Touraine loe. "You know I lbve you, and if your mother won't let me come to your house suppose we have a house of our own?" They are going to elope shortly, this pair, and again the Charles proves Its worth as a matchmaker and a sacred Boston Institu tion. Many mothers have taken the newspaper accounts of canoe flirtations seriously, and there has been an obvious falling oft In the number of young women who visit the river. If the police keep on, fear some, the only feminine things on the stream will be the canoes. There has been no end of woe, too, for other girls who have held out the idea that the tricky canoe was a most efficient chaperon.-New York Tribune. Eve's Apple Tree.
