"The Chicago Diet
'SQuad' succeeded in
cutting down the average
cost of each meal to S-lz
cents in spite of the high
cost of foods. And the
squad waxed fat and hearty.
The most expensive foods
are generally the least nu
tritious. Two Shredded
Wheat Biscuits with milk
make a perfect meal, con
taining all the nutriment
any man or woman needs
for a half day's work and at
a cost of four or five cents.
Shredded Wheat has all the
. body-building material in
the whole wheat grain in a
digestible form. For break
fast with milk or cream, or
- for any meal with fruits.

of Rheumatism. .
Rheumatism is no respecter of age,
sy, color or rank! -; If not the most
dangerous of human afflictions it is
, one of the most pajnful. Those sub
ject 10 rneuniaTism snouut less
meat, dress as warmly as possible,
avoid any undue exposure and, above
all, drink lots of pure water. ' '
Rheumatisni is Caused by uric acid
which is generated in the bowels and
absorbed 'into the blood.l It is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out
in the urine; the pores of the skin are
also a mens of freeing the blood of
this impurity. In damp and chilly,
cold weatner tne skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate this uric acid
which keeps accumulating and circu
lating through the system, eventually
seining in tne joints ana muscles
causing stiffness, soreness and pain
called rheumatism. '
. At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces ot lad baits; put a tablespoon
ful in a glass of water and drink
before breakfast each morning, for
a week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to
normal action, thus ridding the blood
of these' impurities.
-Jad Sahs is inexpensive, harmless
' and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
tnousanas ot ioiks wno are subject
to rheumatism. Here you have a
pleasant, effervescent lithia-water
drink which overcomes uric arid anH
is beneficial to your kidneys as well.'

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
If Easy If You Know Dr.
Edwards' Olive Tablets f
The secret of keeping young is to
feel young to do this yon must watch
your liver and bowels there's no need
of having a sallow complexion dark
t rings under your eyes pimples a Bil
ious look in your face dull eyes with
no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
trom macyve bowels ana liver.
Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a, vegetable com
n pound mixed' with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective. They bring
about that exuberance of spirit, that
natural buoyancy which should be en-,
joyed by everyone, by toning up the liver
and clearing the system of impurities.
' You will know Dr. Edwards' Olive
Tablets by their olive color. 10c and
25c per box. All druggists.
What to Do for Eczema
Greasy salves and ointments should
not be applied if good clear skin is
wanted. From any druggist for 25c or
$1.00 for extra large size, get a bottle
of zemo. When applied as directed, it
effectively removes eczema, quickly
stops itching, and heals skin troubles,
also sores, burns, wounds and chafing.
It penetrates, cleanses and soothes.
Zemo is a clean, dependable and inex-
?:nsive, penetrating, antiseptic liquid,
ry it, as we believe nothing you have
ever used is as effective and satisfying,

GRAND JURY AFTER
MOTOR CAR BANDITS
Kumor that Organized Band of
Auto Thieves Operates
Here Piques Them.
PROBE POLICE HUSH MONEY
The grand jury is understood to be
exercising its sleuth-hound proclivities
in an investigation to determine
whether an organized band cf auto
mobile thieves and motor car bandits
is. making headquarters in Omaha.
Wholesale thefts of cars last fall and
the continued steady disappearance of
mvvers, which, it is generally known
can be converted into cash most read
ily by even a fair organization of auto
thieves, have prompted the inmiisitor-
ial body to action in this phase of
crime.
The sixteen grand jurymen reported
promptly at 9 o'clock to start their
second weeks probe into things that
are but shouldn't be. Examination of
subpoenaed witnesses continued all
morning behind ultra closely guarded
doors.
: One of the witnesses who remained
closeted with the star chamber mem
bers for a considerable length-of time
was W. W. Slabeugh, an attorney.
His testimony, it is said, was an after
math ot charges concerning "hush
money" made against city detectives
by two negroes, clients of Mr. S a
baugh. The charges were withdrawn
by the. negroes at the hearing before
the city commissioners.
Mary E. Thies, who figured ir
bitterly-fought divorce suit a few
weeks ago, being awarded a decree
by Judge Leslie, appeared before the
grand jury as a witness. In the
divorce suit the bone of contention
was a valuable farm located near
Omaha, which both parties claimed.
The wife was finally awarded consid
erable alimony.
There is much speculation as to
wny the grand jury called Lew Kent-
trew, tormer proprietor of the Mil
lard hotel, to testify.
John M. Coleman, manager of the
Urschel supply company, and Em
maline Banks, a clerk, were other wit
nesses.
The general impression round the
court house is that the grand jury
will wind up its session by the end
ot the week.
