Work of the Hospitals.
Omaha has often boasted of its
magnificent hospital facilities, and
Its large equipment of skillful sur
geons, doctors and trained nurses.
After tho wreck and ruin of tho tor
nado, wo bolloVo tho Tnluo of ' tho
hospitals, and their staffs, as an
asset to the community. Is appre
ciated as never before.
Tho flno work do'no by the medical
men, and tho open door held forth
to the maimed and injured by every
hospital In the city to its full capac
ity, stand out as shining examples,
Tho report of tho condition of tho
sufferers in the several hospitals a
week aftor the storm fury, calls .at
tention to the great number of .peo
ple, moro or less seriously Injured,
cared for promptly and effectively
In theso institutions.
Year after year wo havo bco'ri .pay
ing money for tho building and sup
port of our hospitals, and with this
great showing, not a dollar thus in
vested will ovor bo begrudged.
John Ficrpont Morgan.
J. Plerpont Morgan was the eolo-
sus ot Amorlcan finance and a domw
nant world factor In business,, yet
his death hardly disturbs. th& condU
tlons ho is said to have so largely
controlled during his life. His end
had boon, oxpectod and tho possible,
effects, discounted, Perhap this
may all leave rdom for still greater
tribute to his consummate fceniua
as a builder of commerce nnd a
monarch of finance Mr. Morgan
stands thus far supremo In tho
financial and industrial history ot
his country, and probably will do
stand for some years to come;
Ono of Mr. Morgan's private phy
sicians is quoted as attributing his
death to an emotional collapse
caused by his appearance beforo the
congressional committee investigat
ing tho allegod money trust. If , cor
rect, this tends to reflect a now light
upon Mr. Morgan's temporament In
tho gigantic affairs ho directed, he
was novor publicly known for his
emotion. In fact, if ho becamo emo
tional at -this investigation he con
coaled tho fact with superb skill.
Mr. Morgan "was noarly 76 years old,
nnd had been failing in health fori
fiomo time, so that his death 1b not
very remarkable and soems perfectly
natural without attempting to ox-
plain It from unusual causes.
Web Davis' Political KediviTUi,
Wobstor Davis Is a candidate for
mayor of Los Angeles, whore a re
call election was rocently hold. He
will be romemborod as the Kansas
City mayor whose hat was found
shot full of bujlet holes. Some folk,
who thought Davis talked more or
leas' .through his. hat, never, quite ac
cepted bis dramatic explanation of
tho shooting. Davis ardently sup
ported McKnloy In 1896 and drew
the appointment ot assistant secre
tary of tha Interior, but he fell out
with tho administration because. It
seems, it did not rush into tho Boor
war situation against England as he
thought it should, and by 19Q0
Davis was out tearing up tho earth
for Bryan on the Issue of antl-im-
perlallsm.
Kansas City parted with its for
mer mayor with excellent graco, and
no doubt will Jo ready with its
felicitations to Los Angeles, where
fads and faddists just now seem to
bo enjoying tho'lr heyday. This Is
tho first wo havo heard of' Davis for
eomo' years, but now that ho has
restored himself to the limelight he
la not likely to pass .Into another
eclipse soon. Los Angeles will not
be' able to smother him by defeating

President Wilson's election pf
Winston Churchill's Now Hampshire
homo for tho summer capital seems
peculiarly befitting for a man of let
ters, though tho tlmo was even In
the history of Amorlcan presidents,'
when It would have been extraordi
nary for a ruler ot a nation to find
a novelist with such an eslalj. The
Churchill estnto is said to command
a Yletf of the beautiful Connecticut
river as well aa the green mountains.
being well Isolated from the rude
rtol'so of tho world. Thus New Eng
land, which fdrntshes moro summer
capitals than chief executives, seems
to have offered exactly such a re
troat as tho Bcholar-presldent would
seek. -'
Not only In tho choice of his sum
mer, home, but as well in his official
appointments, President Wilson bo
trays the effect of a lltotlme of
classical associations. Several of his
moat important nominations have
been ot scholars or men of letters.
It this is to bo regarded as an inno
vation, It should prove a wholesome
one. Perhaps, after all, the country
needs the Inspiration that wlU come
from a larger Injection ot this ele
ment into Its political lite.

How I Pay
For All My Clothes
For several years I have kept house for my
brother and have been dependent upon him
for nearly everything. He is very generous
to me, but I am such an expense to him in
oher ways, that I always hated to ask him
for money for my clothes. It has been a big
problem to me to obtain the clothes I needed,
and would be still if I hadn't discovered a
very easy way to get them.
A year ago I started, to buy my teas, soaps, foodstuffs and other
hpusehold supplies from Larkln Co. and got for" my money not only the
sameamount of, mipplles I would get at the store, but a Pre'mulm of
equal value besides. Of .course 1 choose clothes as my Premium as they
were the things I needed most. .
The Larkin Premiums pleased me so much, and I liked their Products
so weir that I got some of my neighbors interated ln this .plan of buying
and formed a Larkln Oub-ofiTen: As Secretory of this Club I obtained
extra Premiums from the Larkln'Co. and.ln that way have been able to
keep myself well clothed without going to any extra expense at all.
Larkln Co. publish a big Catalog which tells all about their Products
and Premiums, and their method of dealing. I wish you would write for
this Catalogue DJ9,, aa I know It will Interest you and be Of great lasting
value to you. Just send a post! to Larkln Co., Peoria, 111., and they
will mall you one.
