Advertisers had previously supposed that, since men were the wage-earners, they were the only ones worth talking to a very grave mistake. Perhaps the argument of the amount of a woman's actual purchases was somewhat overworked. v We are inclined to think that most men buy their own shaving-soap, for instance, which wa one of the questions debated at that time. But, whatever the mag rtude of women's actual purchases, the influence which they exeA upon all purchases is radically underestimated. We have no doubt, for instance, that most "talk, ing-machines" are paid for by men, but in nine " cases out of ten a wife or daughter had an important 8ay"in the selection. ; In a home, the woman is Secretary of State.

B00STEES' CLUB TAKES UP W0EK Members See Possibility mt Last with Selection of Site for Manual Training School and tiacit Project. i ) ' "We want a gyml We want a gym! We want a gyml bad! bad! bad!" Is a new although ungrammatlcal yell of the South Omaha High school students. What It lacks In elegance It makes up In eloquence. What the high school boys and girls most desire Is a good and commodious gymnasium near the high school bul.ding proper. The Boost ers' club took up the project yesterday Immediately upon the purchase of the new site for the manual training department. The Boosters' club Is a firm organization which Is out for all things which -look to the betterment of the school. It Intends that nothing so good as a gymnasium shall escape if It comes within the range of pos sibility. The plan which looks very reason able to the students and which, in fact, has appealed to the board. Is that In' con nection with the building for manual train ing the board without any great additional cost could erect a splendid edifice on the new site, one which would be a great credit to the Institution and be Of service. It has been considered out of the question by the South Omaha High school faculty to organize cadets in South Omaha until some such a place be provided for work during the winter season. The proHpect of a gymnasium makes a special appeal to the girls In the high school who love athletics and desire to play basket ball but are handicapped In practice to the very few fair days of the spring and fall. No systematic training Is possible and the effort is usually a failure. Magic city Ooiy. Secretary Fred Metts will lead the meet ing at the Baptist church this evening. Rev.

All Orer the State They Take Up the Move with Vim. HELP PREACH THE CORN GOSPEL Prof. Werka of Perm Xortnal Aarleal-I toral CoUrse Co-Opera tea with I Commercial Clob In Test ing; Seed "The country cannot be too grateful to your club for this move and we trust It will be a stitch In time to save nine." Thus writes one of the presidents of one of the leading country "banks of Nebraska to the Omaha Commercial club In reference to the movement Inaugurated by the club to Induce the farmers of Nebraska to select seed corn that will grow. Bankers all over the state have taken up the movement with a vim and many letters have already been received by the Commercial club and also by William B. Hughea, secretary of the Omaha Clearing House association, which sent out circulars and large cards to all the bankers of the state, over the signatures of all the banks of Omaha and South Omaha. All the bankers endorse the movement and all ask for circulars and cards and many of them offer to pay all expenses for the cards, which have in large type', "Test Your Seed Corn," and also explain a method of testing at home. These bankers say they will mail the cards to farmers. ' The bank at Alnsworth Is sending out 100 small books on the subject and asks for 100 circulars to send with these. The bank at Randolph wants 500, Valentine 500, Ne hawka 400, Florence 100, Long Pine 100, Chadron 200, Bralnard 100, Cedar Rapids BOO, Burwell 600, Wymore 100. Bankers at Jackson have sent out 600 circulars prepared by themselves on the subject and now want 600 of the "test" cards. They say: "It Is a step In the right direction; something the farmers have been too lax about In the past." Jackson offers to test seed corn for the farmers. The Commercial club has placed a sec ond batch of corn In the tester to make further experiments. This corn also comes from all parts of the state. Corn is ar riving every day from farmers who wish their corn tested by the Commercial club and the big tester will be kept busy. Prof. Weeks at Pern Helps., Prof. ' Charles R. Weeks of the Normal Agricultural department at Peru haa taken up the work inaugurated by the Commer cial club and Is sending out circulars In which he offers to test any corn the farm ers send to him at the Normal school. He Is also using this method to Instruct his classes In seed testing. Here Is the circular: "On account of early frosts, excessive moisture and severe winter weather much of last year's corn will not grow. This haa been proven by the Omaha Commercial club In tests recently made on seed corn sent In from various parts of this state. "Weak seed means poor stand, and poor stanA means less yield. Let 1 us, around Per;, be sure that every ear of Corn that we plant will not only grow, but that It will grow so strongly that the young plants will be 'able to withstand any un favorable spring weather that wa might have. "You are cordially Invited to co-operate with the Normal ' agricultural department In a seed corn teetlng experiment. We have arranged It so that we can test one bushel of seed corn for every farmer around Peru absolutely free. The plan is this: "1 You bring to the agricultural build ing one bushel of your seed corn on the Saturday before the week you want It tested. "2. We test it absolutely free. . "3. You come up to the greenhouse be tween the hours of 1 and 5 on the follow lng Saturday, see the result of the test with your own eyes and get your seed corn. "4. Every ear of your corn will be re turned to you. ''6. Corn for next week's test must be in this Saturday. "6. First come, first served. "This plan has the endorsement of the Peru Farmers' Institute and Peru Com merclal club." Scarcity of Teams . Balks Big Work Sure to Interfere with Kailroad Building in he West This Spring.

General Manderson and others have again begun to urge on the city council the ad visability of gfvlng more consideration to the proposal for fifty blocks of decorative street lights. It will be recalled that about three months ago the council hearh dele gations from the Commercial club and other business organizations In favor of a comprehensive decorative lighting cam paign, which would take In the main busi ness section on Farnam, Douglas, Sixteenth and Tenth from Farnam to the depots. Nothing came of the matter at that time because the city attorney held that the cost of Installing the poles could not be asKessed against abutting property by cre ating lighting districts. On receipt of this opinion the council dropped the who) thing. ' In certain business circles the movement has continue! to be the subject of talk, and General Manderson has taken occasion to bring It up again with some merkhera of the council. He was informed that, while the counctlmen favor the proposition for better and more artistic and uniform street lighting from the depots to Eighteenth strt, they cannot see any way to reach that end. If those wanting the lights will show the council the way to get them, then the official body of the city will get busy, according to President Burmester. i When you . want what you want when you want It. say through The Bee Want Ad column f 1510 DOUGLAS STREET (Great $75 $3ft TAILORED On Sale Thursday, at Every suit in this great sale is made of all wool matreial, a fine broadcloth, wor steds, serges and men's suitings. .

' The city council backtracked , Wednesday on action heretofore taken dividing the city Into two districts, north and south of Dodge street, for the purpose of letting sld.ewalk contracts.
