Julius Orkin would never have gone Into this remodeling game had lie thought It would have broken up his Fall season; hammers and saws shouldn't be In evidence Just when woman is Inspecting the newer, pret tier things for Fall andW'inter wear. But the die Is cast workmen are hammering all around here there is no room for show cases or wall cabinets and the Immense number of Fall garments that are ar riving here dally must be sold as fast as they arrive, direct from ship ping cases and express packages in most Instances. On Friday and Saturday last Ju lius Orkin received an unusually large shipment of Ladles' Fall Suits and Blouses direct from the east and on Monday this entire shipment must be sold If firmly cut prices will sell them: In fact, some of these new Fall gems of Ladies' wear will go at about half the price they would have brought had the new Julius Orkin establishment been In perfect trim. Here are the reduced prices that r i riiftiivc muuuiir, 11 veuuuvra you well to step in line and possess n new Fall Suit and two or three Blouses, now that prices have come down to the "low ebb." Women's and Misses' suits that rliould be bringing $25 are $13.85; the $35 grades are $18.85, and the $45 kinds are $23.85. Those crisp, new Blouses are go ing to sell at a like proportion of re duction; blouses that were to have brought $1.60 and $1.95 are 91c; $2.95 and $3.50 values are $1.91; $3.95 and $4.50 values are $2.91, while the blouses that were carefully chosen with an idea of selling at $5 and $5.95 will go for $3.91. Remember the "Out-From-TJn-der" Sale has been planned to get out from under a lot of remodeling difficulties. Julius Orkin bought msny a dollar's worth of Fall wear ables tat he would not have bought, had ha known that so long a time would elapse ere his store improve ments were finished. Even in the face of the carpen ters' eaws and hammers these newly arrived Fall garments must sell at a deeply cut price and hundreds of them will be sold by nightfall Mon day. Aren't you interested enough to see the newest things at a marvel ously low price? Please note. It's the Julius Or Vln establishment at 1510 Douglas rtreet. Without Health You are not an Optimist Optimism, which Is another name for courage, la one of the most potent fac tors In human progress. It enables one to rally when defeats are encountered, to be brave in the face of disappointments. to fight on and on until the battle of Ufa has been won and the heart's desire is satisfied. And optimism is best pre served in the body that is free from pain, that is not impaired by weakness. So those who take care of the health by taking Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey as pre scribed, are not only preserving that whloh will add Immensely to the Joy of living, but are taking care of that which will be a mighty contribution to their suocess la meeting and triumphing over the difficulties encountered along the roa4. to success. Duffy exerts a very agreeable and beneficial action upon one's digestion and Imparts a feeling of strength and vigor that's why. Hecau Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey la a true food tonlo which helps feed the nerves, to In crease the energy end gives fresh vigor to the overworked body and mind; many thousands regularly "Get Duffy's and keep well," and are, therefore, true opti mists who give no thought to pessimistic belief. TODAY'S BEAUTY HINTS To whiten and beautify the com plexion permanently we have found no better preparation than a lotion made by dissolving four ounces of spurmax in a half pint of hot water, then adding two teaspoonfuls gly cerine. This removes any pimples, shiny, muddy or sallow appearance and will make anyone's skin clear, smooth and velvety. It does not show or rub off like powder; In fact, it seeius a part of the skin; and foi removing tan and freckles it un equaled. It is necessary to shampoo mors frequently in the warmer weather because of excessive dust and the fact that the head perspires mor and U usually more exposed to the weather. The easiest to use and quickest drying shampoo that we can recommend to our readers can be prepared very cheaply by dissolving a teaspoonful of canthrox. obtained from your druggist, in a cup of hot water. This rubbed into the scalp creates a mica lather, soothing and cooling in its action, as well as very beneficial to scalp and hair. After rinsing, the scalp is fresh and clean, while the hair dries quickly and evenly, developing a bright luster and a soft flufflness that makes It seem very heavy.

SUE FOR GERMAN TEACHING Societies Are Said to Be Behind Move to Test Instruction - Law. CASE WILL NOT BE ADVANCED (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, 8ept 11 (8peclal.) Teach ing of German In the public schools of Nebraska City faces the people of the Otoo county' capital. J The courts will be called upon to settle the matter and It is probable that the result may affect the teaohlng of foreign languages In all the public schools- of the state. Attorneys representing William Gebart of that city were In the city today to file papers for a writ of mandamus to compel the school -board of Nebraska City to hire a German teacher. The supreme court Judges, with whom a con ference was held, declared that they would not advance the case, and so this meana It will be two years before the case will be decided. It Is understood that the attorneys will go back to Otoe county and begin suit In the district court In the regular way. It appears that about a year ago the mattre of hiring a teacher of German In the schools of Nebraska City came up and the board, in the Interests of econ omy decided the district could not afford The vote was unanimous with the exception of one man, who did not vote. The matter again came up this year and the same action was taken. While the attorney for the plaintiff would not say that the German societies are behind the move, he admitted that they are furnishing the money to prose cute the case and that In all probability It might extend to a general all-state proposition, the German societies all over Nebraska taking a hand In the matter. Senator John Mattes at Nebraska City, prominent member of the last senate, who has been mentioned In connection with the democratic nomination for gov ernor, la one of those interested in push ing the case.
