If we can present to you a plan whereby you can secure perfect
health and be started on the road to it at our risk will you consider-it?
We have no remedy to exploit no drugs to prescribe. Our plan is
sane, sensible, scientific diet. And, mind you. our way to health is a
pleasant one. You do not sacrifice the good things of life.
Let us tell you about it. Let us send you the advance sheets of our
book, "The Battle Creek Idea." It gives in clear, simple language the
history of the great dietetic work done at the greatest health institution
in the world. It tells how you whether ailing or only half well can
be restored to vigorous, abounding life.
Write for the book today. Every day of perfect health you miss is
gone forever. And every day without perfect health means opportuni
ties lost, pleasures lost, business lost. You know this 1
And remember we prove to you the truth of our claim. So write
today. Next week you may be on the road to abiding health.

Vigorous Health Is the Great Source of
tbe Power to Inspire and Encourage
All Women Should deelt It.
One of the most noted, successful and
richest men of this century, iu a recent
article, has said, " Whatever I am and
whatever success I have attained in
this world I owe all to my wife. From
the day I first knew her she has been
an inspiration, and the greatest help
mate of my life."
To be auch a successful wife, to re
tain the love and admiration of her
husband, to Inspire him to make the
most of himself, should be a woman's
constant study.
If a woman finds that her energies
are fiafrg-ing-, that she gets easily tired,
dark shadows appear under her eyes,
she has backache, headaches, beariog
down pains, nervousness, whites, irreg
ularities or the blues, she should start
at once to build up her system by a
tonic with specific powers, such as

Battle Creek,
"Ills Highness the Bey" at the Boyd.
Without too rudely shocking familiar tra
ditions of simple musical satires, the two
Chicago university students who produced
"His Highness the Bey" have given to the
public a most amusing and laughable Uttle
affair. The piece was given In Omaha for
the first time yesterday afternoon and
evening at the Boyd and falr-slied au
diences greeted it. The continuous roar of
laughter and rounds of applause was com
ment enough as to the popularity of the
play with those who saw It. The little play
has been introduced as typically Chlcagoan
and perhaps that Is It. The Hey bears
many Chicago earmarks, chief of which is
his classical name, Mr. Louie Wurtzle
heimer. His highness must not be blamed
for wearing the purple, for the honors were
thrust on him, he being caught In an un
guarded moment In some remote corner of
the orient where a bey had Just been lost
and whose royal pipe, crown, robe and
other little perquisites of Turkish, sov
ereignly were fairly pining for a master.
Herr Wurtslnheliner, originally from Kan
kakee after coining from Germany, re
luctantly yields to the pressure of Interna
tional solicitation to ascend the throne and
he does so with uneven tread until his eyes
chance to fall upon about eighteen of the
most beautiful heritages wTilch the missing
ruler has left to him. Then he comes to
and adjusts himself to these soothing sur
roundings with amazing aptitude. Inci
dentally Mr. Wnrttlchelmer takes his new
friends Into a little domestic secret which
he had been treasuring up In his mind for
his, own. He had originally married the
snake charmer in a side show, so no one Is
surprised at his magnanimity In consenting
to preside over the social end political af
fairs of a Turkish province.
rhll W. Teters is the bey and he keeps
his audience laughing all the time and that
is the purpose of the play. He Is backd
up well by Al Denier as the Russian am
bassador and Justin J. Cooper as caliph of
Harran. The bevy of girls Is as attractive
as those of their pretended functions might
be supposed. Cora Reach Turner as an
American heiress. Mahlo MeCane as a
southern belle ensnared In the harem and
V. H. Thompson as a war correspondent
display good talents as vocalists. The en
tire company does good work.
Vaudeville at the Crelarhton Orphenm.
The second week's bill at the Orpheum
Is a trifle more varied than Its predeces
sor, and is made up of turns that please.
The opening act Introduces three colored
entertainers of more than common ability
Miss Harper. Mr. Desmond and Miss
Bailey according to the bill; one fat, one
lean and one quite black, all good. They
made a hit for fair last night. Another
act that weit like wildfire with the Sunday
evening audience was the Messenger Boys'
Trio, or rather one end of It. Willie How
ard Is a comedian of ability already, and
should develop Into a top-liner. His Imi
tation of Joe Welch is better than Welch.
The others sing well. I-ew Wells has some
new Jokes In his "talk," and plays the i
saxaphone very well. The Wilton brothers
are clever athletes, doing soma fine work
on the horizontal bars, with a lot of funny
acrobatics mixed In. Eatellta doesn't sing
as good2as she looks, ajid she sings well, too.
Her Spanish dance is a trtfle too languor

"Pea-try from Paris" at the Krnit,
"Peggy From Paris" the third Oeorge
Ade production to play In Omaha within
a week opened at the Krug theater yester
day to two big audiences. The musical
comedy scored well and continues to hold
Its own as a maker of laughter and en
cores. Two things about the present com
pany force their way to the front. The
first Is Clara Martin, who has the part of
Lutle Plummer, and the second Is the
chorus, which Is munificent In good looks
and vivacity and wears nico, bright clothes.
Miss Martin's voice Is like a dew-drop In
the desert, presuming the desert to be the
result produced by managers who hire
first for beauty and second for song, In
recruiting. Besides singing Miss Martin
manages to keep one anxious to have her
appear again.
Arthur Deagon is still Reglnall Hlckey,
the useful boy, and is the main comedy
prop, having grafted In some new ones on

sight and manages a trailing skirt with
great dexterity. Percy Bronson has a
good tenor voice hut does not appear to
overwork It. Eva Bennett, as the chorus
lady who has issued from an alley. Is sweet
and attractive and not tough enough by
half. As the grotesque wife of the angel

Two capacity audiences were present at

by the Woodward Slock Company. The

DEMOCRATS IN A DILEMMA
Result of Eepublican 8t! ConTention
LetTfS Thm Adrift.
TO ENDORSE LETTON AND REGENTS
One Ronrhon War Horse Would as
Soon Vote for Antl-rorporntlon
Republicans as t online
to Vote for Popallats.
(From a Start Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Sept. IT. (Special.) The dem
ocrats will hold their convention Tuesday
to name a county ticket and select dele
gates to the state Convention to be held the
day following. A number of the wards held
caucuses last night, and In the Seventh
resolutions were adopted commending the
republicans of the state for adopting reso
lutions demanding the regulation of rill
roads, and claiming the same has always
been a populist contention. It Is likely
the populists of this county will not go to
the trouble of holding a county convention,
as It would be Impossible for them, without
the old reliable Tibbies, to get a corporal's
guard to attend such a convention.
That the democratic state convention will
follow the example cited and endorse the
republican state platform and go It one
better by endorsing the republican candi
dates Is possible, but, of course, not proba
ble. A Lincoln democrat who Is really
sincere in desiring the regulation
of the railroads of the state, said the
best thing the democratic state convention
could do would be to commend Governor
Mickey and Treasurer Mortersen for their
work ns members of the state board of
assessment, and to cemmend Norrls Brown
for his work as attorney general, and to
top It all off by condemning the Union Pa
cific and Burlington railroad for not pay
ing their taxes. Then, by endorsing Com
missioner Letton and the candidates for
regents nominated by the republicans, a
real movement for reform would have
been accomplished by both parties, and
the fight would be the people, united,
against the corporations. He thought that
after voting for populists so long the dem
ocrats could not do better than vote this
year for the antl-corporatlon candidates In
the persons of the republican nominees.
Other democrats, however, will Insist on
going through the formality of nominating
party candidates and adopting a platform
with more rhetoric than that adopted by
the republicans.
Echoes of State ConTention.
Lancaster county republicans have not
yet "come out" of It. but are still flghttna
over their scrap pulled off In the late re
publican state convention. C. S. Allen, a
member of the Board of Regents of the
State university, came out first In a signed
communication in which he took the people
of Lincoln to task for not standing by John
H. Ames In better form when the latter
was before the convention as a candidate
for supreme Judge. This morning Dr. Fin
ney, one of the delegates, retaliated over
his own signature by taking Judge Ames
to task for trying to vote the delegation
for a corporation candidate, after he laid
down in the fight. Dr. Finney thinks the
action of the delegation In splitting up In a
fight was the best thing that could have
happened and that It will prevent In the
future the naming of delegates who can be
pitched over Into some other camp like so
many cnttle when a local candidate Is
through with them.
Another Democrat for Governor.
A number of democrats In Lancaster
county are busy Just now In running P. E.
McKlUlp of Humphrey for governor, even
though the convention Is a year from now.
They are talking McKlUlp because of tho
splendid showing he made against Con
gressman McCarthy last year and of the
fact that he secured all but three votes in
his home precinct against his opponent. It
Is understood here that McKlUlp would
prefer this time to take a throw at the
governor's chair than to tackle the con
gressional fight a second time. It Is said he
can have the latter nomination without op
position, but bis friends are going to Insist
that he make the race for governor.
It Is claimed that Fred' Abbott of Colum
bus, nominated for regent of the univer
sity by tbe republicans, will secure more
democratic votes than any republican nomi
nee. This because Mr. Abbott Is an old
university boy and the editor of a news
paper. A democratic newspaper man was
tn Lincoln many weeks before the repub
lican state convention urging the nomina
tion of Abbott and he Is authority for the
statement that Abbott will receive much
democratic support. Whether the demo
cratic editors will be strong enough to get
the democratic stnte convention to endorse
him is another question.
Testimony tn Grain Case,
Attorney General Norrls Brown will take
testimony tomorrow In the senate chamber
In the grain case, preparatory to making
his argument for a permanent injunction
against the operation of the alleged trust
the following day Jn the supreme court.
The attorney general has scads of testi
mony In support of his contention. In get
ting which he has been materially assisted
by the independent elevator "men.
Supreme court will meet Tuesday for tho
first time since the adjournment last Julv.
All of tho Judges have been out of the state
on their vacations and with the exception 1
of Chief Justice Holcomb will get back Into
the harness In fine fettle. Judge Holcomb
had a severe setbuck upon his roturn home
from the coast and Is still 'In very bad
shape.
A change has been made In the offices and
court room during the vacation by Clerk
Lindsay which will be appreciated by the
Judges and attorneys. The clerk's room
has been moved across the corridor Into
the consultation room and the court will
use Judge Holcomb's office for a place In
which to consult. The cases will be argued
In the usual room, but It has been refitted
with new paint and, carpets and is Hot
recognizable. The brief room has been
ritted up with tables and chairs for the ac
commodation of attorneys.
tnlnvested School Money,
Of the permanent school fund there re
mains in the hands of Treasurer Morten
sen, $126,000 not Invested. Mr. Mortensen
expects, however, to find a place for this
money In a short time as he la taking up

$10,000 a day end he has In sight many
more thousands of dollars worth. He Is

The above tickets are now before the

of the hardest fought campaigns to be
waged in the state.
The republican convention was harmon

after a few good natured contests had been
settled. The republican convention was the
most representative convention In some re
spects, ever held In Holt county and people
of all parties concede the ticket to be a
winner.
On the other hand the fuslonlsts had a
hard time to name a ticket at all and the
sore snots will not heal up for many moons.
The pop convention and the democrat con

after a long drawn out contest and the
democrat part wanted half of the officers
and this started the ball to rolling.
They reported back to their convention
recommending that there be no fusion un
less they get half of the officers, but the
convention had cooled off during the recess
and promptly turned.,down the report and
began doing business without conference
committees with the above result. There Is
said to be four pops and four democrats
on the fusion ticket, but no one seems to
know which Is which.

Sewer Bond Proportion to Go Before City
(Jouecu lonigbt.
MATTER OF GREAT ItoPQRTANCE TO CITY
Plan Novr la to Include Whole System
in One Election and Ask
Voters to -Authorise
tbe Honda.
This evening when the city council meets
the sewer matter will aga.ln be taken up
The ordinance accepting the plans of An
drew Rosewater will be passed, and it is
expected that a general sewer ordinance
will be introduced. This ordinance must
define the sewers It is proposed to build,
specifying the streets and alleys as nearly
as possible. There Is to be no attempt
made to vote on a portion of the sewers,
but the whole Issue of bonds allowed by
law, $260,000 will he brought before the
people. By doing this the city authorities
think that there will be less opposition
from those who consider that the packers
and stock yards should build the Mud creek
sewer. With an enlarged sewer system
which will practically effect the entire city
the chances are that opposition which was j
so manifest at one time will be nearly If
not Quite overcome.
It Is not expected that any members of
the council will be opposed to having the
people vote the entire amount at once.
These officials declare that with the mat
ter disposed of the money will be available
at any time and that the work of .build
ing larger sewers enn he pushed rlRht
along. Besides the big sewer to the river,
a sewer to Jetter's brewery and Corrlgan's
place Is proposed, also a sewer to reach
the river through Missouri avenue Some
of the present storm water and sanitary

Commercial flnb Matters.
Tor some time past Interest In the South
Omaha Commercial club has been on the
wane. Dr. W. J. McOrnnn, presidents of
the club has prepared an address to the
business men of the city calling upon them
to again take hold and stir things up. "Not
elnce the organ'xstlon of theelty," says
Dr. McCrann. "has the want of public
spirited mm been so manifest as at the
present. What we want Is boosters, not
knockers. Never In the history of South
Omaha has there been a time when pushers
In public Improvements me-nt so much for
municipal development as now. W!th the
population of South Omaha we ought to
have a commercial club of not less thsn
l.onn members. Iet every man take hold,
not only the business and professional man.
but the packers and commission dealers at
the yards. By united action a great deal
of (rood can be accomplished."
Trouble Cleared Last Jflurht.
Manager Carter of the telephone com
pany said last evening that by working
a force of linemen all day Sunday tho
trouble on the wires caused by the storm
was cleared. This morning all of the
telephones In the city will be In wording
order. A great deal of work was made
necessary by the burning out" of cahles
carrying a large number of wires. New
cables had to be hoisted to replace the
burned out ones and connections made.
While complaints were rumerous, patrons,
of the telephone company seemed to un
derstand under what difficulties the line
men were working and abided by the de
lay with more than ordinary patience.
Subscribers are being consoled with the
knowledge that It will not be long before
the bulk of the wires are placed under
ground and after that there will be little
trouble on the wires during storms.
Hla-hland Park Clnb Picnic.
The Highland Park Improvement club
will hold its annual picnic at Highland
park on Wednesday evening If It does not
rain. The original date was for last Fri
day evening, but a postponement was nec
essary on account of the storm. The same
program as previously announced will be
gone through with. In addition. Jack
Buchanan has consented to render a few
selections on his bagpipe. A baskt dinner
will be served In the early rart of the
evening and at 7:S0 o'clock the speech
making Is to commence. If the weather
Is pleasant there Is sure to be a large
attendance of club members and their
friends.
Prisoners Are Expensive.
A bill for feeding city prisoners for the
month of August was filed lste Saturday
with the city clerk. This bill calls for I71H
and means that 751 meals were served to
prisoners In one month. This Is at the rate
cf about twenty-five prisoners a dy. Most
of the prisoners were tramps, who v e: e dis
charged after being held twelve or fifteen
hours. Only a small number of the totil
were sentenced to work on the weed cutting
gang. Several months ago the city pur
chased two cars of ruble, but not a pris
oner has been put to work on this rock pile
sine the stone was dumped in the rear of
I the city hall building. Had the stone been
I broken It would come In handy soon for the
filling of washouts on unpaved streets. As
It Is now the wushouts will le filled with
dirt and the next heavy rain will wash
these fills out and so the endless task of
filling holes goes on.
Educating; the Voters,
Several voting machines have been lo
cated In stores where election booths will
be located In order that the voters may be
come familiar with the machines. It Is the
Intention of the city authorities to send
out ss many of these machines as possible
before election, but only voting plsces
where the location Is permanent will be
favored with machines. The voters seem to
be grasping the Idea readily and It only
takes a few lessons to teach the ordinary
voter how to cast a straight or spilt ballot,

Why
Don't you give your heart the same chanex
you do the other organs?
Why? Because when any other organ Is
In trouble It refuses to work, and you
hasten to repair It.
The heart, the ever faithful servant,
never refuses, as long as It has power to
move, but continues to do tho hest it can,
getting weaker and weaker, until It Is past
repair, and then stops. It Is Just as sick
as the other organs, but because It will
work you let It.
However. It. Is not too late for a "chango
of heart," so remember
Dr. Miles' Heart Cure
will give you heart strength and vitality
to overcome Dizziness, Palpitation. Short
Breath, Faint Spells Pains In Heart ami
Hide, and all other Heart aches and diffi
culties. "My heart would ache and palpitate ter
ribly and at times I could hardly breathe.
Dr. Miles' Heart Cure has restored me to
perfect health and I am very grateful."
