Real Estate Men
, Plan to Sell Entire
Addition in a Day
To sell out an entire addition of
Omaha real estate in a single day
would be a new experience in Oma
ha business activities, yet this is what
Omaha real estate men are plan
ning on.
They have an addition of nearly
seventy lots, which they hope to sell
out between sunup and sundown, on
the day when they really throw their
heart into the campaign and adver-
This addition is Waverly Park, just
south of Fontenelle Park, between
Forty-fifth street and Forty-eighth
avenue, bounded on the south by
Wirt street and on the north by Bed
ford avenue.
It was bought some months ago
by the National Realty associafes, a
corporation formed from the promi-
hm! re.l Acts Jtnra nt all
leading cities in the United States,
who are investing over the country
where choice opportunities are of
fered. Lots are either to grade or on slight
terraces, cement sidewalks have been
laid and water installed, and the en-
tire addition has been seeded with
I bluegrass.
There will be a sales day announced
in the near future, right after the fall
festivities are over. The prices will
range from $550 to $825. Lots will be
sold on terms of one-tenth cash and
1 per cent per month, with a discount
' of 10 per cent for all cash and 10 per
cent to purchasers who will build the
first ten houses. There will be suit
able building restrictions.

MIDDLE WEST BEST
PLACE OFALL TO LIVE
Bishop Stuntz ( of Methodist
Church Lauds It as Center
of Religious Life.
HOME OF PUBITAN IDEALS
"Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas are
closer to heaven than any other spot
on the globe and I've covered the
greater part of it meaning the globe,"
said Bishop Homer C. Stuntz, when
he arose to address an audience that
overflowed the First Methodist church
to bid him welcome to his four-year
task of presiding over 1,200 pastor
ates in Iowa and Nebraska during
the coming year.
"Think it over. The middle west
has furnished Tiore leaders for the
cause of Christianity than any other
locality. Is the Christian religion of
the United States centered in New
York? No. That state is sagging
with unassimilated immigrants.
World Headed This Way.
"During the years I have been in
the foreign field I have been told by
men close in touch with the situation
that it is a question of not more than
one year when 375.000.000 people will
be crowded out of Asia, 475,000.000
out of India and 275,000,000 out of
Africa. There are but two logical
places for them to go, North and
South America. It will he but a few
years until Omaha's 225.000 will be
increased to 1,000.000. That's why I
have come to join you to help solve
the problems.
"Only a few people have come to
realize the wealth and fertility of
the middle west. The Mississippi and
Missouri valleys offer opportunities
unsurpassed along religious as well
at investment lines. When I crossed
the Missouri in the early 70's in the
attempt to practice law I shot, jack
rabbits to keep body and soul to
gether. I little foresaw the advance
ment. Puritan Ideals Here.
"Today the ideals of the Puritans
are not centered around Boston.
They are congregated about Omaha,
the push and energy that has made
western people prosperous. Men of
the middle west are the men who
have throttled the drink traffic, and
it will be only a few months, until
we make Nebraska as dry as the
Sahara. And that old desert is 'some
dry' because I've crossed it and 1
know. The leadership of the moral
world today ha- come from the Mis
souri and Mississippi valleys." x
Chimney Corner Waiting.
"Come right in and sit down in
the chimney corner of our hearts"
was the closing remark of Dr. J. F.
Poucher of Trinity church, the re
turned chaplain of the Nebraska
troops on the Mexican border.
"Lincoln and Omaha Methodists
have forgotten their rivalry and on
behalf of St. Paul's church of Lin
coln and the entire Nebraska dele
gation I bid you welcome," said the
Rev. T. W. Jeffrey of Lincoln. "The
splendid city by the Missouri has ac
complished results. Your achieve
ments are our achievements." ' Dr.
Jeffrey, well known as an Indiana
chautauqua lecturer added spicy re
marks regarding his experience with
the Hoosicr cow, the Indiana hoe
and the team of "Cleveland bays"
that brought applause.
A. F. Stryker, traffic manager of
the Union Stock Yards, welcomed
the bishop on behalf of the laymen
of the churches of Omaha. '
District Superintendent Ulysses
Grant Brown of Omaha was the pre
siding officer.
Bishop Stuntz will have charge of
1,200 pastors in the Iowa and Ne
braska field. His headquarters will
bein Omaha.
Bishop Stuntz will address Com

Aged Man Dies of Wounds In
flicted by Himself in Effort
to End His Life.
HE HAD BEEN DESPONDENT
Joe Stillmock, aged 68 years, pio
neer of the South Side, died yester
day afternoon at the South Side hos
pital, of two gunshot wounds sus
tained when he attempted to com
mit suicide by shooting himself while
in an alley at Twenty-first and I
streets Wednesday evening. He
passed the night unconscious in the
alley in the rear of the McMillan
home and in the morning dragged
himself to a front porch where he
was discovered and turned over to the
police.
Not until station officers' began to
search him was it discovered that he
had shot himself. Loss of blood and
his extreme age are held accountable
for the death. Despondency because
of sickness are said to be the causes
of the suicide.
Mr. Stillmock left the home of his
son-in-law, F. E. Hydock, 2117 F
street, where he has lived for several
years, the night before at 7 o'clock.
"We have been married more than
a week and haven't had any peace
since," a newly married couple
chorused to Sergeant James Shcahan
and Officer Baughman, when the lat
ter appeared at the home of the new
lyweds in the' vicinity of Twenty
fourth and A streets. The front porch
was covered with tin cans, splintered
wood and other debris.
Cots to Sioux Falls.
John C. Schultz, young engineer
who has been in the employ of the
street railway company, left this
morning for Sioux Falls, S. D., where
he will take up a responsible position
as chief engineer at the Morrell Pack
ing company there. Mr. Schultz was
one of the leading young men of the
South Side. He graduated from the
South High school and later received
his degree as an engineer at the Ne
braska State university after four
years' work.
When the local Young Men's
Hughes and Fairbanks club was or
ganized he was a leading spirit in the
club, assisting nightly. He later was
elected secretary. He expects to per
manently locate in Sioux Falls. He
is the son of Mr. and Mrs. JohmF.
Schultz. (
Losei His Savings.
Jim Rons, packing house laborer,
is minus $160 because he permitted
two friends to put him to bed. Jim
carried a strong European money
belt with an inner lining. He had all
of his savings $160 in gold tied up
in the belt, and when he displayed
the prize to a crowd in a local sa
loon he spread temptation.

An Effective Laxative
for Growing Children
Dr. Caldwell '$ Syrup Pepsin
Highly Recommended at
a Family Remedy
In children the slightest irregular
ity of the bowels has a tendency to
disturb the entire digestive system,
and unless promptly remedied invites
serious illness. The experienced
mother knows that by training her
children to regularity in this respect,
and when occasion arises administer
ing a mild laxative, she will have lit
tle need for the doctor's services.
Mrs. Leo Weigand, 3251 Central
Ave., N. S., Pittsburgh, Pa., whose
two boys, Frank and Joseph, are
shown in. the illustration, writes that
she has found Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin a most effective laxative, not
only for the children, but also for
herself, and that she will always keep
it in the house to use when needed.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a com
bination of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin that acts easily and naturally,
without griping or other pain or dis
comfort. It is pleasant to the taste
so that children like it, and is equally
effective on the strongest constitution.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin can te
obtained at any drug store for fifty
cents, and should have a place in
every home. It will save many times
its cost in lessened doctor bills and
maintain the health of the entire
family. To avoid imitations and inef
fective substitutes be sure to get Dr. ,
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. See that a
facsimile of Dr. Caldwell's signature
and his portrait appear on the yellow
carton in which the bottle is packed.
A trial bottle, free of charge, can be
obtained by writing to Dr. W. B.
Caldwell, 455 Washington St., Monti
cello, Illinois.
