THE REE: OMAHA. TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 20. 1017.
Everyone Should
Drink Hot Water -in
the Morning
Wash away alt tha stomach, liver,
and bowel poitona before
breakfast.
Nebraska
To feci vour best day in and da,
out, to feel dean inside; no sour bile
to coat your tongue and sicken your
breath or dull your bead; no consti
pation, bilious attacks, sick headache,
colds, rheumatism or gassy, acid
stomach, you must bathe on the inside
like you bathe outside. This is vastly
more important, because the skin
pores do not absorb impurities into
the blood, while the bowel pores do,
avs a well-known physician.
To keep these poisons and toxins
well hushed trom the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels, drink before
breakfast each day a class of hot
water with a tcaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in it. 1 his will
cleanse, purify and freshen the entire
alimentary tract, before putting more
tood into the stomach.
Get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from your pharmacist. It
is inexpensive and almost tasteless,
except a sourish twinge which is not
unpleasant. Drink phosphated hot
water every morning to rid your sys
tem of these vile poisons and toxins;
also to prevent their formation.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves
and muscles became saturated with
an accumulation of body poisons, be
gin this treatment, and, above all, keep
it! As soap and hot water act on the
kin, cleansing, sweetening and puri
fying, so limestone phosphate and hot
water before breakfast, act on the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels.

SALARY MEASURE
1 COMES DP IN HOUSE
Members Take First Considera
tion of Bill Providing Pay
for Employes. .
TO SPEAK AT CLOTHIERS'
CONVENTION.
STATE AIDS BRIDGE FUND
' (From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, Feb. 19. (Special.) Ap
propriations for salaries were con
sidered in the house today. Twoyears
ago the senate took the responsibility
for adding to the bill, the house hav
ing used the paring knife. It may be
so again this year.
The total amount of the bill as re1
ported out for salaries was $880,000.
An amendment by Mr. Olhs piac
ing the supreme court stenographer:
on a salary basis of $1,200 instead o(
$1,000 to conform with a bill increase
ing their pay, which hasalrfady
passed the house, was not voted on.
Chairman Rieschick of the finance
committee said that if the latter bill
should be passed by the senate the
item in the salary bill would be
changed when it goes to conference.
Statute Intervenes.
Mr. Beal moved to raise the assist
ant adjutant general's pay from $1,200
to $1,500 a year, hut on learning that
it is fixed by statute at the former
figure he gigged back. A similar
amendment by Mr. Fries, boosting
the labor commissioner ffom $1,500
to $2,000, was rucl out for the same
reason. The house defeated a motion
to raise the labor commissioner's
stenographers from $840 to $1,000.
Three readers for examination
papers were provided for in the state
superintendent's office, at $1,000 per
year each, instead of two at $1,500
each, this change being recommended
by the finance committee.
The committee's recommendation
raising C. V. Spear, clerk in the rail
way commission's accounting depart
ment, from $9o0 to $1,080 per year,
was also accepted.
Aid for the Blind.
One more bill was reported but for
the general file by the finance com
mittee. It appropriates $4,000 as a
state fund for relief of the blind. The
house has already taken favorable
action on another bill autliorizing
county boards to pay pensions of not
more than $300 a year to blind per
sons needing aid.
State Bridge Fund.
The proceeds of the state aid bridge
levy, which is fixed by la wat one
fifth of a mill, are appropriated for
the statutory purpose during the next
biennium by the Cronin bill, which
the house sent to third reading. Mr.
Cronin explained that two years ago
the legislature held down the appro
priation to $150,000, and the state
board cut the levy in two because
of that fact.
Would Amend Present Law
To Get Co-operative Banks
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, Feb. 19. (Special.) The
Question which has been raised as to
the constitutionality of House Roll
757, an act relative to the establiIi-
nient of co-operative banks, has
caused Chairman Murtcy of the house
committee on -banks and banking to
take up the matter with Attorney
General Reed, who in a communica
tion to Murtey, says, after quoting
ths constitution relative to the lia
bility of stockholders:
"Allow me to suggest that inas
much as the bill under consideration
has to do as its title indicates, with
the subject of banking, and that it
extends by its terms the scope of
the state banking laws, it would be
better, in my opinion, to pass the
act as an amendment to the existing
laws upon the subject of banking
than to pass it as an independent
acV"
Chicago Postmen Must
Not Discuss "War" Crisis
Chicago, Feb. 19. Employes of the
postoffice in Chicago have been or

cause of a number of quarrels at va
rious stations because of difference of
opinion among employes. Free criti
cism is said to have been expressed
of the course taken by President Wil
son in tne present crisis and the or
der cites this as particularly unbecom
ing a government employe.

MOTOR MEN SEEK
NEW AUDITORIUM
Start Movement for Twin
Building, Doubling Size of
Present Structure.
NOT LARGE ENOUGH NOW
A movement seeking to bring about
the erection of an addition to the
municipal Atidituriuni which will
double the capacity of the present
structure has been orinatcd ;md
started by the Omaha Automobile
association.
That the Auditorium is totally in
adequate for a city the size of Omaha
is the assertion of the automobile
men. The I'M 7 automobile expii
lion, which will be held February 2(i
to March tliev say. brings this tact
out most forcibly,
In order lo hold the show llns year
the automobile men will have lo build
a temporary annex in which lo slage
tin truck ilip!ays. It will alsu be
necessary to move the city carpenter
shop from (he stage of the Auditorium
lo make room lor chihiting space.
And still there is insufViciem room,
not an exhibitor will be given xlhc
space he asks.
To Buy on the South.
The plan urged by ill'? automobile,
men is to condemn the alley south
of the Auditorium and buy the ad
jacent property to the south. A twin
building could be erected between the
present structure, and Jackson street,
thus making the auditorium cover an
entire block.
These two buildings could be con
nected by a partition system which
could be thrown open for the auto
show and other big events which need
more room. For operas and the like
these partitions could he closed so
that only the present building could
be used. .
The motor car men further argue
i that a second floor could be built by
! eliminating the loft and the balcony.
which would not be needed in the ad
dition. On this second 8oor the city
jail with its offices in connection
could be installed, thus saving the
expense of building a new jail, which
they say Omaha must have before
long In the basement a city garage
could be placed. The city at present
owns thirty or forty automobiles,
which are scattered among the dif
ferent garages of the city. The city
carpenter shop, now taking up valu
able space on the Auditorium stage.
! could also be put in this basement.
The automobile men intend to put
a shoulder to the wheel, ask the aid
of the other civic organizations and
, try to bring about the enlargement
of the Auditorium as soon as pos
! sible.

handed against a crowd of what he
termed "oppressors of the poor work

fore the labor comniittre of the senate,
to which a large crowd listened. The

Special prayrrs were made in many

and for all nations engaged in war.
This was done by action of the Kcd

appointing it a "national day of
prayer." The council is made up f

! Smith of fcxetcr, Mr. Gay of Hastings
i and l L. Lindsay of Lincoln against
: the hill.
I Most of the speakers against the
1 bill said they did nut particularly oh
j jeet to paying the amount called for
i in the bill if a girl was worth it, hut
I the did object to paying the mini
: mum wage to the girl who was incf
' hcient. Senator Smith said he was
paying some of his help more than
i they were worth and did it because
' they were the sole support of families,
but if he had to pay them the amount
jcalled for in the bill he simply could
not keep them and would be called
! upon to put in machines to do the
work because ot inability to get ef
' hcient help.
Mr. Kodrea and the other Omaha
men said in the nutter of help it was
a- question of paying for the work
: done. Two girls cmild be working
side by side, One could do work
worth more than the minimum wage
pi oposed while the other could not
; come up to thai wage.
! It would be lack of good business
judgment tn pay more than a girl
could produce, according to their
