Omaha hug entered Into a harp buying "Jf It nays to know boats hen you
Oompetltlon with Chicago, St. Louis and are building boats; If It pays to know
Kansas City, and has come out vlo J the principles of mechanical construction
torlous. The result Is that the finest
Iota of the F. II. Orcutt t- Son Co.,
wholesalers and retailers of 1CC Farnnm
Mreet, will not be ient out of town, but
will be sold right here In Omaha, where
tho Orcutt rugs and curtains are so well
and favorably known.
Hundreds of Omaha people, who know
and appreciate the Orcutt quality of
merchandise, will have the opportunity
next week to bur the goods they wish, In
the sale which will last nil week at
Brandels Stores. The nrandels firm was
fortunate In securing- one-third of thaien
tiro stock of F. II. Orcutt & Son- Co.,
which Invoiced at 12B.100. nrandels share
waa $33,700, whllo the PHWO portion wssj
taken by M. li Smith & Co., who soldjl
Ihelr portion nt wholesale.
The Orcutt company was a complete
rug and drapew .houws, sellinR both at
wholesale and retail. Iwns famed for
ita carefully selected, stocks of high and
medium grades of ruga of ' every descrip
tion, carpels of the most desirable tes
turo and pattern, linoleums of depend
able, character nnd floor coverings In
very desirable grade. In tho drapery
utock were richest patterns of lace cur
tains, beautiful portieres and drapery
curtains, rich hangings, drapery ' piece
Roods and malerlnl for mural decoration,
aa well as curtain flxttues, fringes, car
pet sweepers; In fact, everything that an
up-to-date, perfectly equipped rug and
curtain house would carry.
When It became necessary to sell this
Block to satisfy creditors' demands, the
ord spread rapidly, throughout the mor
rantllo world, Many famous firms In
larger cities announced their wish to bid
on the great stock. William A. Maurer
nnd David D. Miller acted as trustees,
representing tho creditors, and the entire
Orcutt stock. Invoicing J2M,7, was of
fered to tho highest responsible bidder.
Among tho famous houses who sent rep.
rescntatlves hero to compete for this
utock were Hlegel, Cooper A. Co. of Chi
cago, the Fair of Chicago, Trollcht. Dun
ker & Co. of St. Louis, Negbour & Sons
of Kansas City. When the meat size of
the Orcutt stock became known, many of
the outside concerns were wary about
nhoulderlns so great an undertaking. The
bid of the Omaha concerns vn accented
to' the trustees, and a great Omaha rug
nnd curtain stock was awarded to a gTcat
Omaha store.
There could be no place In the United
Btatcs where the Orcutt stock might be
old with so much success bs right hre
In Omaha- No wholesalo or retail stock
was over more favorably known for Ha
uniform excellence. "Orcutt quality"
has for years been regarded aa a high
atandard. Some of the most elegant
homes In Omaha have been equipped
from this stock. A number of Omaha's
most handsomely appointed clubs have
been furnished by the Orcutt company.
For sevoral weeks Nrandels Stores
have been making the most thorough ar
rangements to properly display the var
ious lines of tlils Immense purchase, so
that the thousands who will attend the
vale next -week may chooso with moro
case nnd greater satisfaction. It hai
been necessary to Increase the floor space
of tho rug department by fully to per
cent In order to find space for the rug"
of the Orcutt stock. Kxtra forces of men
have been given the work of making and
preparing the ;oods for sate.
It would be obviously Impossible to
place all the Orcutt purchase on salo at
one time, even In a store of such gigan
tic proportions aa Brandels. It Is now
announced that all tho rugs and carpets
from tho Orcutt stock will go on sate
Monday and Tuesday, February 3 and 4.
The major portion of the third floor of
Urandrls Stores will be given over to
Ihla event.
On Wednesday, February 5, all the lace
curtains and drapery goods from the
Orcutt stock will go on sale and nearly
the entire basement will bo devoted to
Ihla purpose.
On Thursday the scene of the operation
will change again to the third floor,
when all the ram and exquisite Oriental
ruga from the Orcutt purchase will bo
old.
The linoleums from the great purchase
will go on salo Monday, February 10,
and again the gTeater part of the Im
mense third floor salesroom will bo
needed to show the goods and to accom
modate the crowds.
It Is very doubtful If such a selling
event on such a mighty scale has ever
been witnessed by Omaha people. The
immensity of the stock Is matched by
the magnitude of the preparations to
properly display and dispose of them at
this asJe.
Prominent carpet and drapery men,
who are In a position to know, declare
that the Omaha people who attend this
aeries of sales wilt secure bargain ad
vantages that they might wait twenty
years before duplicating. -Advertisement.
when you are a bridge builder; then It
pays to know life when you are living,
and to know the social structure In which
you live." These were the words In which
Hr. Alexander Meikeljohn, president' of
Amherst college, summed up an able
defense of the liberal college of today,
at tho noon luncheon at tho tnlvct.slty
club. Or. Meikeljohn addressed the mem
bers on "The Liberal College and tho
Business Men." Ho contended that tho
liberal college did Just as much foc-Uic
preparation of tho business man ns It
did for the preparation of the ministry.
"The liberal colleges were founded years
ago for the purpose of preparing joiing
men for the ministry," said the speaker."
but conditions have stneo changed. He
cent statistics from colleges show that of
the-total number of graduates US per cent
enter lives of business and legal activities,
while, less than 2 per cent tnlte up the
vocation of ministry. The question then
arises, 'lias the function of the liberal
colleges changed nnd are they prop,
erly preparing their graduates for the
life they are entering?'
"The, nnswer, of coiuse. Is yes. For
exactly In proportion to the way they
once prepared young men for tho ministry
they are also now meeting the needs of
their attendants In the various other
chosen pursuits. Of what use was
mathematics to the minister, or the
Oreek or Latin; nil of which he studies nt
school? And finally, of what advantage
were all of those to him when he finally
went out to work In a Parish? Vet It
was Insisted upon In the college. Tho
olnt was thst the people of the parish
looked upon the minister as the nuin of
learning, the man who should havo a
grasp on the affairs of tho world. He was
expected to know and understand what
was going on In the country at large.
Now Isn't It tho same thing In tho world
of business? We no longer ask only thw
minister to understand the social scheme
In which he lives, but expect that the
business man shall nlsn know It nnd
Just aa well.
"Tho creed of tho liberal colleges then
Is, tha?WB belleVe that knowledge -pays,
that It pays for the men of our com.
munlttea to know what Is going on In tho
world."
President Alexander Meikeljohn of Am
herst college spoke to tho teachers of the
high school In. the high school auditorium

DID YOU ever wcara monocle? Did you ever try to wear one? No?
Well, each and every society miss will have to go to her boudoir
nnd In the privacy of the four walls, q mirror and this famous bit
of English custom, the monocle, practice each day.
Now all New York society women have acquired tho art: you may not
credit this pleco of gossip, but the other day at a bridge afternoon I was
chatting with two of Omaha's most popular young society woman, one Is
a tall, stately brunette, and It was she who brought up the subject.
'Do you know what they are wearing In New York?" said this young
woman in a tone which indicated that some now and novel Idea had not
only crept Into the exclusive social circles In that city, but had become tho
rage. "Well," she continued, "I think I will wear one, if I can JUBt get
omc one to wear one, too." There was a merry llttlo twinkle In her
great big brown eyes, but I noticed a certain look or determination to do
or die.
They tell me that the fashionable New York women, who keep up
with the times, survej tho world through a single glass set In a Jeweled
framo suspended from a tiny Jeweled chain. The actual glass is about nn
inch and a half or two Inches In diameter, tho frame may be of platinum
or gold, and is the latest oyo glass fad, according to a Jewel expert.
The women find the monocle simpler and more effective than the
lorEneltos and they give moro chance for ornamentation. i
It Is this goSBlp which ,t" young Omaha miss has heard nnd her
fondness for the very latest had prompted her desire for tho new fad to bo
adopted by the Omaha women.

OounciiR'efuses
to Open Street
Forty to fifty business men appeared
before the city commission sitting ns a
commltten of the whole nnd demanded
that an ordinance requiring tho opening
of Twenty-second street from Douglas to
Karnam be killed forthwith. Two men ap
peared to advocate tho passage of the
ordinance. The commissioners voted
unanimously to put the mensuro on file,
Mayor Dahlmnn moving this action.
Not only would It bo too expensive, it
was argued, but any street opened be
tween Douglas and Karnam, between
Twlentleth and Twenty-fourth streets
would be useless. A. S. mtchlo and C.
F. Harrison, Hhe only advocates of tho
ordinance said a great many people
living on Douglas street would be bene
fited. The plan was, to open Twenty-second
street from Douglas to Farnnm first,
nnd follow this with on ordinance open
ing Twenty-second on to Harney. Growth
of the city and Increased business In this
district will ultimately demand such ac
lon. although It will cost 1100,000, said
nitchle.
Many large cities have business blocks
as long as this stretch between twentieth
and Twenty-fourth, said the opponents
of the ordinance. It was also pointed out
that one time the commissioners decided
to open this same street and the protest
ants won when the case was taken to the
courts,
Home of those who appeared In oimosl

commissioners were; c. n. Keller. Mnri

Fine Apartments
to Be Built on the
Paxton Homestead
Mrs. Anna Donuhue, wldpw of the lata
Chief of Police Donuhue, and Thomas
Cash of Missouri Valley, have bought III
feet fronting on Twenty.flfth avenue at
DouRlas street and soon will start the
erection of a 0,000 fireproof apartment
house upon It-
The deal waa closed through Hastings
& Heyden Realty company, the consider
ation amounting to $18,000. The lot Is
a portion of the Paxton homestead which
recently waa cut up Into apartment house
lots. The new apartment house, the
builders say, will be the finest in Omaha.
Contracts already have been nade for
three apartment houses In that Imme
diate vicinity.
Bluffs Man Buys Two
Houses Sight Unseen
A. M. Peterson, president of the Ne
braska Suspender, Qartor and Belt com
pany, has sold two houses ''sight unseen,'
to O. W, Allbee, of S00 Madison avenue,
Council Bluffs, a deal Involvlna 10,600.
One of the houses, at Tlilrty-nlnth and
Dodge streets, sold for J6.7W and the other
at 4706 North Twenty.ninth street,
changed hands at W.760. Tenants who
have lived In them several years say they
received notice of tha transfers, but
never has there been anyone around to
look at the properties; they declare It is
a "sight unseen trade.' Peterson says It
Is not exactly that, for Allbee xonce "took
a slant" at the houses a Jong time atro.
The KIrst and St. Mary's Avenue Con
gregatlonnl churches have a Joint plan
o(i foot to sell both the present edifices
nnd establish a Jarse. Institutional church.
Tho plan has been discussed at Joint
mcctlngB of the trustees and men's clubs
of the two churches with very favorable
consideration. While yet In its Inclpiency,
It Is being discussed and agitated for
there Is a positive sentiment In favor'
of It among men and women of both
the parishes.
Two plans suggest themselves as to
final action. Ono Is to merge the congre
Rutlons and erect a large, modern edifice,
out about Thirty-fourth and Farnam
streets, or tn that section, adapted to
general Institutional work that would
meet the requirements of all classes of
people. The other plan Is to build a
, place of worship in the outer section and
an auditorium downtown for those 'who
might be more easily reached that way
and seldom got out to the churches In tha
residence districts. Neither plan has yet
been decided on, 4
"The underlying purpose," says Dr. J.
A. Jenkins, pastor of St. Mary'a Avenue
church, who Is strongly promoting the
proposition, Is to db something vital and
positive In a spiritual way for the city cf
Omaha that will compare favorably nltn
what churches of various denominations
are doing for other cities. Our plan .s
only In-Its first stages and therefore we
cannot say now what will be the result,
but we are encouraged to find apparently
a mutual agreement to the general Idea
among the men of both the churches.'-
These are two of the leading Protestant
churches of Omaha and embrace a good
deal of wealth and Influence. Ttev. Fred
erick T. House. D. D., Is paBtor of the
First Congregational, and while not out
spoken on the present plan Is believed
not to opposo It.
Protestants generally are considerably
Interested In the situation, aa It presen's
a matter that has been revolved In th"s
minds of a good many local churchmen
for some time. It Is said that some Pres
byterians of the city have long advocated
the establishment of an Instltutlnal
church out of the First Presbyterian,
Seventeenth and Dodge streets. In a down
town locality. This church also embraces
considerable wealth and has, It Is under
stood, long ago secured a building lot or
a new edifice at Thirty-fourth and Far
nam, but plans seem to be held tn abey
ance tor some reason or other.

Skin and Scalp
Troubles Banished
(From American Health Review.)
"A case is reported from a nearby olty
where a woman twenty-three years old
had suffered for four years from eczema
of the scalp. The hair was thin and
straggly from continued scabby forma
tlon. She was 'advised by a neighbor to ut
qulntone which she did as follows; She
procured two ounces of qulntone from
her druggist, dissolved It In half pint hot
water then applied the solution to her
scalp twice a day. Relief from the tor
turing Itching was the result of the first
application. The two weeks' treatment
restored the scalp to a clean and healthy
condition.
"Qulntono has been used successfully
for treatment of eczema, salt rheum,
tetter, ringworm and other eruption u'
the skin. Advertisement
