If Captain Colling could cure him
self of a double rupture that kept him
bed-ridden for years, by a simple
means of his own Invention, why can
not you achieve the same blessed re
sult by doing as ha did? You can't be

his rupture. Doctors told him he must
tie operated upon or die. Yet jje cured
himself absolutely and his big, free
book tells how.
Texas Woodmen of the World, living in
a etato that has furnished nearly lto.000
members to that organization, cannot un
derstand1 why In Omaha, which is head
quarters for tho Woodmen of the World,
thp organization has a mere handful of'
members, according to Sovereign Com
mander' W. A, Fraaer. This statement ho
made lost night at tho banquet given by
tho Commercial club in his honor at the
club rooms. He said when ho left Texas
to come to Omaha to tako his new posi
tion here, he was told to "go, there and
'waken those dead ones." '
"And so," said the guest of honor, "I'm
going to ralso the Itlp Van Winkles in
'Omaha, or as Bradshaw says, 'You or I
will leave town.' And I want to say
that I'm here to stay. So It's your move."
Mr. Frascr pointed out that the Wood
men of tho World- with headquarters in
.Omaha keeps an average balance of
51,000,000 in seven banks in the. city, em
Ploys 400 people there,- and. has a pay roll
:that-is not: Inconsiderable.- - He said- that

If he would move tho headquarters to
Chicago ' 'the'y would "give him a- larger
membership out of Chicago and auburbs

tho United States,

About 200 attended the banquet given in
honor of Mr. Fraaer and the other resi
dent officers of the Woodmen of the
World. Howard II, Baldrigo as toaat
master made some yItty remarks In the
introduction of the speakers and paid a
nice tribute to the honored guest, Mayor
J. C. Dahlman spoke of his appreciation
and the appreciation the city has of the
Woodmen of the World.
John T. Yatea, sovereign clerk of the
organization, followed the mayor with
some remarks In behalf of the" Woodmen.
W. S. Wright for the Commercial club
reviewed the work of the Woodmen for
twenty years and hoped their auccesa in
the next, twenty would be as great as
hoa been that of the last twenty.
D. E Bradshaw, sovereign watchman
of the Woodmen, ald tho city should tie
proud to have tho headquarters of so
great an order i here, and assured the
Omahans that now. that they have a
Scotchman at tho head of the order here,
they will either have to Join or leave
town.
What King- Thinks.
Charles E. Black, (King, Ak-Sar-Ben
XIX), reviewed tho great work of Ale
Sar-Ben for the building up of Omaha,
and declared that Ak-Sar-Bcn and tho
Woodmen of the World are tho two great
eat organizations in the city.
J. E. Fltsgerald, chairman of tho sov
ereign roanagera of the Woodmen of the
World, spoke of tho composite blood from
alt eastern atatcs that has gone to mako
up the citizenship of Nebraska, and sold
even so was the membership of the Wood
men of the World made up of some of
the beat stock of the country. "And with

PART OF A NATION-WIDE PROBE
Oinahn llcllevcrt to be Unu of Coun

for tho KmnKKlcd
Contraband.
Directed by a special representative of
tho United. States customs' office, poll Co
and federal officials searched the old
tenderloin district last night for contra
band opium be'.lcvcd to bo in tho hands
of distributing agents hero.
Tho officers visited tho Chinese store?,
restaurants and homes along Ninth and
Tenth streets and Capitol avenue. When
they' Unshed these, tho police sought out
negroes known to uso tho drug. Tho
raid netted a pound of confiscated gum
opium, worth, perhaps, $40.
Tho government officers have informa
tion that raw opium, brought from tho
orient into Canada and Mexico and
smuggled .into this country, is forwarded
to several largo cities for distribution.
Omaha, tho officers say. Is ono of the
largest distributing points, and two
young Americans aro said to bo the
'agents of the smugglers for this locality.
These two, whoso identity, tho officers
say, Is unknown to them, rccelvo tho
drug and then carry it In person to re
sponalblo Chinese merchants, who dis
tribute it to tho "retailers."
Tho two aro' now being Bought by tho
federal authorities. It la said that no
longer than) two weeks ago an enormous
supply of uncooked opium was brought
into Nebraska by them. When thoy
were here, officers learned that they
Btopped nt a downtown hotel and lived
in regal style. Both are Inveterate users
of the atuff, but managed to conceal
their habit from tho hotel management.
Cadet Taylor, local surveyor of cus
toms', says that the investigation hero Is
al part of a natlon-wldo probe being con
ducted by tho government, which is de
termined to break up the opium ring. A
law which recently wont into effect pro
vides a flno of $5,000 and five years' im
prisonment, not only for selling, but
Bmoklng also, has given customs officers
wide powers.
A week ago potlco oftcers raided an
opium den on North Eleventh street and
found a brother and sister In .tho. bunks
In a stupor from the effects of the stuff.
Two Chinamen keepers of tho place,
paid small fines in police court next morn
ing and departed. This raid, govern
ment officera say, interfered with the
Investigation being made by the federal
authorities without tho knowledgo of the
police. When it was made, all tho
other places where tho stuff is sold im
mediately became moro cautious than
ever. Had it not been for this tho raids
last night would have been startllngly
effective, it is declared.

human Intelligence to appreciate tho great
harvests that the earth can yield.
Peoplo are learning their lessonts thoso
days. Poople who have starved In the city,
on meager, unwholesome food. Peoplo who
have starved their minds with meager, un
wholesome lives are learning the lesson that
only tho earth can teach. In every hig city,
every Sunday, thousands upon thousands of
thorn swarm out through the railroads and
the trolley lines to somo Uttlo suburban
woods, or some nearby farm heavy with tho
burden or its yellow harvest.
Perhaps you have not yet caught tho spirit
of tula movement toward tho land. Perhaps
you are already too near to It to appreciate
how good it is.
nut Just rememher this, the thing which
all these other peoplo missed. 1b the thing
which you aro going to miss bo$io day. Tho
longing which they now have Is tho longing
which you aro going to lmvo before you die.
And the sooner you get that longing und
tho sooner you satisfy It the better for you.
A little land is tho thing you need most in
the world.
