the world's greatest medicine, is an absolutely pure distillation of clean,
selected grain, thoroughly malted. When taken at meal-time it stimulates
the mucous surfaces and little glands of the stomach to a healthy action,
thereby Improving the indigestion and assimilation oC the food and giving to
the system its full proportion of nour
ishment. Doctors of all schools agree
that it Is the best tonic stimulant to
build up the body that is run down
and weakened by the long strain of
winter and drive out spring fever and
malaria.
Duffy's Purr Malt Whiskey Is the
only whiskey that waa taxed by the
Government as medicine during the

Bang the following limerick to the won
dering tenderfeet:
"Have you heard of the Omaha booster?
They're earlier up than the roosters;
They stay up with the owls
And other night fowls:
They are sure on the Job, those booster."
The Gymkhana, which Is proving mighty
popular, unfold new wonders at every
production. Captain Henry Dunn, cast In a
leading role, sings with the soaring notes of
a lark, and when It comes to mimetic abil
ity he is striking a pace that brings him

rily Impressive and In exceptionally good
taste, a fact Which reflect credit upon
Charles E. Black of the board of governor
and head of tha committee on ritual.
John M. Guild of the Commercial club

Talk were made by A. W. Jefferls, W. a
Wright of the firm of Wright & Wllhelmy,
Justice Frlck of the supreme bench of
Utah and the Rev. John Mathews of the
First Baptist church.
Messrs. Wright and Jefferls mad typical
booster speeches.
"There are three, things," said Mr.
Wright, "ot which all Omaha ought to be
proud; first, Its Commercial club; second,
its trade excursions, and third, Its Ak-Sar-
Ben. The praise of these three institu
tions a person hears everywhere he goes."
Mr. Wright outlined a little of the his
tory ot the trade excursions. He was a
member of the first Junket, made in 1892,
a two days' trip over the lines of the
Northwestern, and has aver sine been an
enthusiastic booster.
