Seeere Prartlrally Kotklns for Their
Trouble.
FREMONT, Neb., tec. 2B. (Speclal.)
No less than seven business houses in the
main part of the city were entered by bur
glar last night. They appeared to be after
money rather than goods, and Id not get
rlcn for their trouble. Those who were
robbed are 'William Sparks, wall paper and
paints. Rex Henry, Implement dealer, East
Fifth street; Plllsbury tc Veaxle. hardware
and A. F. Ahlmeler, groceries. Main street;
Frenk Hanlon, groceries. Jordan Brothers,
dry goods and groceries and Catron A
Chrlstensen, feed dealers on East S.xth
street. The favorite method of getting In
appeared to be breaking In rear windows
and the Jobs are believed to have been
pulled off early In tha evening. Sparks'
store having been entered about 8 o'clock.
A woman living next door heard the noise
of breaking glass, but thought nothing of
It. Mr. Sparks' son came to the store
about 10 o'clock, discovered tha situation
and at one notified tha police and the
heriff, but they havs not yet been able
to get any definite clues to the thieves.
At Henry'a and. the feed store they got
nothing for their trouble, but did consider
able damage by smashing things up. At
Spsrks II In change was all they got. At
other places they helped themselves to
articles which could be carried away easily.
A tough gang of prisoner was Teleased
from tha county Jail the early part of the
week and It is thought they might have
come back and done the Job. At one store
they overlooked a valuable unset diamond,
which lay wlh some papers In a cash
drawer. The drawer had been broken open
with a new hammer which lay behind the
counter.

Cam I nsr Democrats Disappointed.
WEST POINT, Neb., Dec M. (Special.)
The appointment by Governor BWallen
berger of Dr. II. Ij. Wells of West Point
as assistant physician at the Norfolk hos
pital for the Insane has been the subject
of considerable comment In the democratic
circles of Cuming county. The majority
of the democrats seem to think that this
county has been somewhat slighted In the
division of the political pie, especially In
view of the fact that tha county Is strongly
democratic, the normal majority on that
ticket showing no signs of decrease and
In view of the further fact that the ability
and standing of Dr. Wells as a physician
would seem to entitle him to a better
position.

TIMELY REAL ESTATE C0SS1P
Dealer Beliere Close-in Apartment
Hons'i Good.
WZAD WHITES FROM THE EAST
O. V. Bholvs starts Dlacaasloa a to
.linker of Advertising Medlam
Which Dealer hold tee,
Favorla bat One.
With the holiday interruption, following
closely on that furnished by political mat
ters, the real estate dealers of Omaha have
had little opportunity to learn Just what
the exact situation Is and have been mark
ing time and planning next season's cam
paign. Few city lots or residences were
bought "for the holiday trade." or given
aa presents, but there Is a good feeling
among the dealers and they look forward
to the best season's business ever on
record for the coming season.
Some dealers predict Omaha has come to
a point where there Is a demand for apart
ment houses close In, and C. C. George of
George A Co., la on who believes
the valuable downtown corners will
begin during the coming year to fill up
with apartment houses. As In every west
ern city where the original townslte is not
cramped for space, there are many de
sirable locations In Omaha, too inconveni
ently situated to be the sites of new store
and office buildings, yet too close In and
too valuable to make either desirable or
economical locations for residences. So
these sites In Omaha, which will run Into
almost two score, are likely to be the
scene of busy time during 1909 and the
end of the year will aee a large number of
new apartments, which, from past experi
ence, will be filled by desirable tenants
almost before the ground Is broken for the
foundations, and some of which will
probably be sold for Investment before
finished. This has been the experience ot
the last year. Every apartment erected has
been rented and several changed hands.
because they looked so good to Investors.
Hastings ft Heyden. Ernest Sweet and
other have erected apartment houses
which sold well on the market. Mr. Sweet
had Just completed several apartment
houses at Twenty-sixth and Howard streets,
when Emma J. Ayers paid $11,600 for one
of them. Since Mr. Sweet has sold two
others at about the same price. He planned
the apartments Just a year ago, had theaa
leased before built and now sold. Mr. Sweet
will put the money into other real estate la
Omaha at once.
T. D. Wead. who Is been spending
four weeks in the east, writes that business
conditions have Improved to such on extent
In the north Atlantic and New England
states, that a traveler from the west would
scarcely believe It to be the same country
which. In real estate circles, as In other
lines, felt the financial trouble to keenly
that the sales were abanded, people poured
out of some of the properties considered
the best; what did sell went at a sacrifice,
and money was hard to get on city
property. But It has all changed, says Mr.
Wead, and the east Is getting Into the
class ot the west, when It comes to main
taining real estate values.
No one accuses D. V. Sholes of the Omaha
Real Estate exchange of Joking, and when
he spoke In favor of the dealers advertising
In but one Omaha paper Instead of three
It was commonly admitted that Mr. Sholea
had "started something." Mr. Sholes Is 1n
earnest. He believe It would be possible
for the real estate dealer to select one
newspaper and use It exclusively for their
advertising, compelling reader to buy that
paper If they want to see the advertise
ments of real estate dealers. In other
words, the one newspaper would be the
bargain counter for farm and city property,
or a sort of bulletin and director for post
ing what the dealers have to sell, and mak
ing the readers go hunt the directory
when they want to rent a house or buy a
lot. Mr. Sholes Is undecided as to any
paper and appreciates the fact that one
class of daily newspaper will reach a cer
tain class of readers, while the other news
papers reach a class remote and removed
from the othera. Thla la shown In the re
port of the circulation departments, which
keep some Idea In mind at least as to what
other city papera their reader take. It is
said en good authority that not 20 per
cent of the reader of a reputable dally
newspaper ever see or take to their homes
copies of the so-called "yellows." The
Chicago Dally Newa Is a notable example.
The News publishes something like 320,000
papers every afternoon and while a small
part of the issue leavee Chicago, It Is said
leas than 20 per cent of the readers of the
New subscribe to any of the "yellows"
which "wuxtra" every twenty minutes and
cover the streets with pink trash.
Thus to reach the better class of readers
the real estate dealers admit they will al
ways have to use a paper which sells
without red Ink. But W. W. Wallace Is
one who Is of the opinion that it will al
ways be necessary to use a "yellow" when
a certain class of people are wanted to
buy small property on easy payments or
when tenement property Is for rent.
Mr. Sholes Intends to push the Issue and
convince his fellow dealers, If possible, that
It Is a waste of money to pay for advertise
ments In three or four papers when the
same results can be obtained by adver
tising In one paper. Secretary Harry Tukey
docs not accept the proposition as serious,
but thinks the time Is coming In the future
when the plan will be adopted.

MAKING BAD BOYS GOOD
Berbank's Principle of Plant Cal
tare Applied to Growth
of Bralaa.
Boys with hands which are destructive
whenever they come in contact with the
works of a clock or a piano will be much
better after they have had Dr. Leon
Elbert Landone build up their constructive
noninterferlng brain cells.
Dr. Landone sprang Into prominence re
cently by his discussions upon the effect of
employing the principles of Lutncr Bur-
bank's Plant culture to human beings.
When seen shortly after his arrival from
Los Angeles, he said that he has an In
stitute In the California city where he sup
plies the effects of environment and
nurture to child culture In much th same
manner as the wizard oeveiops me penec
tlon of the vegetable kingdom.
"Mr. Burbank." said he. "believes that
children should grow up wild, and In that
respect we do not agree.. He certainly does
not permit his plants to so develop.
"We have Just begun to understand the
reflex action of one part of the human sys
tem upon another. Ullmpses of this Im
portant field are obtained here and there
through operations. It Is quite possible,
for Instance, to build up the brain cell by
means of aiding th development of certain
muscles. Backward or defective children.
It will ususlly be found, hai-e some muscu
lar or functional defect, and If that Is over
come, their mental condition will appreci
ably Improve."
Dr. Landone declared that he had thor
oughly tried hla theories upon animals of
all kinds, and had verified the results by
post-mortem examinations.
All functions." he continued, "may b
developed by exercise. Suppose that a
dog be trained o that he will Instantly
recognise the key of O. Thl h been don
by placing his food in places from which
this not proceeds, and he presently lesrns
to differentiate that sound from all others.
It will be found that within a few months
he will have Increased the brain cells which
have to do with the sense of hearing by
three and four times, and sometimes by
twelve times. That has been ascertained
by dissection after the death of the animal
so trained. - .
"By analogy It la not unreasonable to be
lieve that the same building up of the cells
occurs In human beings. The ability to tell
the direction from which sounds come may
be gratly developed. Few men have It.
as th hearing la aided by sight and other
aenaea. Neither doee the human rare, a a
whole, (lave ears which may be erected
and nvrved at will.
"Both animals and man. In their primitive
state, raise themselves on their tees In the
act of listening and thus develop lower
muscles. I do not wish to overemphasise
a detail like this, yet there Is a connection
which can ba plainly traoed snd an some

Carlos; for tie Oily Sklsu
If one has an oily akin, which usually
means a skin with large pores, very little
co!d cream Is needed, even In midwinter.
An application once or twice a week is
quite sufficient. A person with a skin of
that kind must seek, first, to keep th
pores of the skin unclogged with dirt and
duet, and then to use astringent lotion for
closing the pores. A free use of cold water
on the face will help, and aa limited a
use of hot water as possible. A few- drops
of the tincture of bensoln In the water la
very good; so also la a diluted solution of
llsterine rubbed In on the face after wash
ing It. Lemon Juice applied at night will
help to contract the pores.
