E have all hoard of pcoplo turning grocn with onvy, but I doubt
T if anyone has orer seen anyone In this unusual state
y V According to reports, a number of humorous Incidents
happenod at tho recent flood In Los Angeles, and they lose llt-
tlo In retelling, in all probability.
A prominent young woman from Omaha, who, with her parents, Is
now residing In Los Angeles, had a weird experience during tho flood.
Sho was walking along the sidewalk and had to cross tho street in order
to reach her home. 8ho stepped off the sidewalk into the street, think
ing th water was not deep or tho torrent very strong, but sho was mis
taken, and was literally swept off her feet and carried to a pool of water
about four fcot deep. Several young men rescued' her, but they could
scarcely tell her nationality. Shoj was wearing her now spring suit of
emerald green taffeta, but, alas, tho silk evidently was not warranted not
to run or fado, and they say she truly was grcon, and doubtless sho envied
those who wero not.

Various Cities Give
Reasons for Owning
Public Auditoriums
Those directly connected with the man
agement of municipally owned audi
toriums in the large cities that havo such
Institutions, are alt of the opinion that
cities need an auditorium, according to
information gathered by the citizens'
Auditorium committee of Omaha, which
has written for opinions horn many
cities.
"Art auditorium should be considered a
part of the necessary equipment ot a
city and should bo maintained by the en
tire city. It should be a public building
under proper control." fiucti Is the opin
ion of E. 11. Clifford, civic secretary of
the 8L Joseph Commercial club, St. Jo
seph, a town half the size of Omaha, and
which maintains an anudltorlum valued
at 1300,000. '
'The Denver Auditorium, a city owned
property, though maintained at on an
nual loss of T',000, Is considered the best
Investment the city has made In recent
years. The Denver Auditorium cost ;00.-
000. It has been of so much benefit to
the city, according to Denver business
men, that the city Is glad to maintain it
at a loss.
'A city owned auditorium Is much to
bo preferred over a privately owned one,"
according to J. II. Beek of St Paul, "be
cause privately owned ones seldom pay
Under private ownership, tho rates
charged are so high that they provent
the bultdlng being used ns often as It
should for the bcTneflt ot tho general pub
lic.
L. W, Thoun of Kansas City, manager
of tite Auditorium, gives his opinion that
an auditorium for a city should be con
sidered In the sense as a museum or
public library, a desirable asset, which
costs money to own and operate.
DR. C I BABCOCK WILL GIVE

Dr. C, L. Uabcock of the Bureau of
University Study and Travel of Berlin.

Noble May Run for
Regent of the State
Uni as a Democrat
G. W. Noble, general agent of the New
England Mutual Life Inauranco com
pany, Is a probable candidate for the
democratic nomination for regent of the
state university. He admitted as much
yesterday, but refused to say whether
he was for or against the removal of the
university to tho farm' campus.
Petition blanks to clrculato In tho in
terests of Mr. Noble's proposed candidacy
were secured from Lincoln ty Dr. Palmer
FIndley Tuesday, but they have not yet
been started. If tho Insurance man con
sents to have tho petitions circulated, he
will depend partly upon his past record
as an educator for support He was
superintendent of Instruction In Cass
county for four years, and before that
taught In the schools of tnat locality for
five years.
C. M. Sklles of Fremont, an antl-remov-
allst, has also announced hts intention to
run for tho nomination for regent on tho
democratlo ticket, and will carry the re
moval question Into his campaign. Charles
. Anderson ot Crete and Georgo Coup-
land of Elgin are the regents whoso terms
expire this year.
CUSTOMS SH0WA DECREASE
Although Amount of Goods Received
is More Revenue is less.
HEW TARIFF 18 THE CAUSE
More Lumber Comes from Cannda
anil More Trees, Shrubbery and
Nnracry Stock Comes from
France and Germany.
An excellent tone of business conditions
In Omaha Is shown by tho marked in
crease in Imports clcnroJ through the
port of Omaha' during tho month of Feb
ruary, which amounted to 5,000 last
month, as compared with a total ot only
H:,000 for the corresponding month of
1913.
Business In every Hr.o of Importation
hero&has been stimulated by the new
tariff, according to the quantity and
number of consignments received from
foreign countries.
The customs rcvenuo for th month,
however, operating under the new dem
ocratic tariff, show a decreaso of 40 per
cont tn spite of the increase In the total
value of the Imports received through
the customs office here. The customs col
lected for February this year amounted
to only 16,700. while this tariff operating
last year yielded a total of $11,000 during
the same month, yet on n smaller total
volumo and valuation of Imports.
Since tho new tariff has become opera
tive there has been a marked Increase
In lumber Importations to Omaha from
Canada, and also a vast Increase In the
quantity of shrubbery and nursery stock
Imported from Franco and portions of
Germany. 9

How To Grow Long
Beautiful Hair
By a Hair Specialist.
It Is not hard to stop the hair from
falling out and promote its growth it
the right means are used. There Is no
hope tor the scalp where the hair roots
are dead and the. scalp Is. shiny. How.
ever, to those who have not reached
this condition. Immediate steps should
be taken to stop It before It Is too late.
Here Is a simple recipe -which ycu can
make at home, that will stop the hair
from falling out, promote Its growth and
eradicate scalp eruptions and scalp
humors. I know of cases where the hair
has grown from four to fire Inches In
a few months after using this simple
recipe; To a halt pint of water add 1
os. bay rum, a small box of Barbo Com
pound and U ox. ot glycerine, and apply
to the hair, rubbing with the finger tips,
two or three times a. week. These in
gredients can be obtained at any drug
store at very little cost and mixed ( at
home. This recipe not only promotes the
growth ot the hair, but darkens streaked,
faded gray hair and makes It sort and
glossy. Advertisement.
