lmDortant changes In the management ot
the system were announced today, as well
as new financing. ; IL I. Miller, who has
mplet ed an expert examination of the
.iad was elected a vice president. In which
(position hs will co-operate with Chairman

An explanation with the aid of stereop
ticon views was made to the master boller
maker"s convention Wednday morning of
the newly Invented Jacob Schupert fire
box, which Is so constructed that expto
dcfectlve plate front caiiHlng an explosion,
sions are almost impossible. To prevent a
the boiler Is divided Into sections so thnt
defect can affect only a, part of It. When
a plate becomes raked with mud so that it
Is kept from the water and Is being burned
out, the increased heat changes the con
tour of tig plate and dislodges the mud.
The fire box has many features which
make It as near safe as It seems possible
to get. At the I'nlon Pacific shops the
boxes were demonstrated.
James Farrasey of Cleveland came as a
delegate from the botlermaker's conven
tion lately held there and' spoke briefly.
The bollermakers spent the morning of
the second day of the convention almost
entirely In scientific discussions. The sys
tems of apprenticeship which ought to be
followed were discussed at length follow
ing the suggestions made Tuesday by Pres
ident Lucas.
The program for the afternoon included
a visit to the Stock Exchange and the
packing houses with a luncheon at Cud
ahy's. Delegates and the vlsltlnk women
both were Invited to this excursion. Dur
ing the morning the women made a shop
ping tour of the city under the escort of
Omaha women.

A Delicate Rose-Tint
Given To Complexion
(From What to Wear)
"Oily, shiny skins," says Marguerite
DeVale, "can be given a delicate roae-tlnt
and delightful clearness If powders and
greasy creams are avoided and a simple,
Inexpensive lotion used made by dissolv
ing a small original package of mayatone
In eight ounces ef wltch-hal.
'This lotion, applied to the face, neck
and arms freely every day, quickly puri
fies the skin and gives to It a rich, vel
vety softness, and Its continued use lends
a charm and elegance to any sallow or
unnnatural complexion.
"Another advantage In rising the maya
tone lotion Is that it Is greaselees and
will not grow hairs, while It protects the
daintiest complexion from changeable
weather and guards against freckles and
tan." Adv.
CURES
SICTII DISEASES
A perfect condition of the skin exists as long as the blood is normal,
but when it becomes contaminated with humors and acids its supply of
nutritive properties is greatly lessened, and it becomes a sharp, acrid fluid
which diseases instead of preserving the natural health and texture of the
Skin. Then come Skin Diseases ; the character of the eruption depending
upon the nature of the humor with which the blood is infected. If there is
an excess of acid in the circulation the trouble is characterized by itching
and burning eruptions. Other impurities produce watery blisters, rashes,
etc., commonly known as Eczema, Tetter or Salt Rheum, while still other
morbid matters in the circulation cause Acne, pimples and like troubles. It
is right and proper to get what relief one may from the application of washes,
salves, etc., but such treatment should not be depended on alone to produce a
cure only a thorough purification of the blood can accomplish this. S. S. S.
cures Skin Diseases of every character and kind, because it purifies the blood.
It goes down into the circulation and removes the humors and acids, builds
up the weak, acrid blood, and completely cures all skin affections. Book on
Skin Diseases and any medical advice free. S. S. S. is for sale at drug stores.

WTien B. Fay Mills was in Omaha
recently he cited. In one of his lec
tures, the cam of John Gordon, 2423
South Twenty-Fouith street. In Il
lustration of the power of mind to
overcome adverse conditions. To
'.those who know the circumstances,
the forcefulnras of the illustration
is fully appreciated.
The pluck, the cheerfulness, the
manly pride of John Gordon are as
remarkable as his physical condi
tion Is pitiful, and tnoso acquainted
with his case cannot cease to mar
vel how hla Intrepid and sanguine
spirit compels vital serlce from a
broken body that Is already half
dead.
Mr. Gordon Is a hero, who Is fight
ing the battle for self-support
though a prisoner within four walls,
and flat on his back. Thus far he
has continued to be the master of
a most cruel fate, and his struggle
makes the strongest possible appeal
both to our heroic sense and to the
sentiment of compassion. By help
ing him we help a brave soldier
most grievously beset, fighting at
rrigntrul oaas, that would dismay
any but the boldest, and we help a brother on whom affllotlon could not
a heavier hand without finally crushing out his Indomitable spirit.
Gordon's effort to make a living a phrase which In his case has a par-,
ttcularly literal meaning and a grim Import has been described from time
Do time In The Bee. He must do what he can do propped up on a pillow
with a writing tablet In his hands and telephone fixed above his bed He
Is a Nubocrlptlon agent for magazines and periodicals. A year ago hoping
to establish a business he undertook to earn a f 1,000 prize offered for a
certain number of subscriptions to two high class publications, with a dis
position to have a share In relieving the wants and w'oes of others, and not
overcome by his own he arranged that the prize nhould go to the Child Sav
ing Inxtltute. The $1,000 was earned for the Infants' Home, but Gordon
only realized expenses. Meanwhile weakened by the trails of suffrlnpr and
increasing wounds, having only a short time to live, as an only hope of pro
vision for the future he made a contract with the Ladies' Home Journal and
the Saturday Evening Post to procure 4,000 subscriptions to these magazines
for wh!ch the publishers will dVpopIt $2,000 with the Conservative Savings &
Loan 'Association for his benefit, the principal to revert to some charity to
be decided by the vote of his subscribers.
He has almost won, having already written 8,963 subscriptions since
October 1st, but n. ust yet have 83 more by May SOth (the 8th and last inanth)
to earn the full $2,000. Gordon does not handle the money nor will he ever
see It, but the Interest will bring him $10 a month for life. The editor
' wishes tc join those who have won the blessing of the Master by often sit
ting by the bedside of this afflicted stranger, in urging that people will
rally to him and give him the victory.
It will be a great benefit to some deserving charity and an Immense
satisfaction to a man who though maimed and pined down disadtns to admit
himself helpless and still keeps an admirable pride that forbids him to utter
the cry of a supplicant Gordon must have these 47 subscriptions to the
Ladles Home Journal and Saturday Evening Post, either new or renewal, by
May rOth or he will fail. He richly deserves success and those who assist
him by their patronage In achieving it will magnify and enoble their own
hearts.
