BUTLER ASPHALT
PLANT REMAINS
UNDISTURBED
Commissioners Transfer Vari
ous City Hall Departments;
Zimman Resents Threat ,
of Referenrum.
The city commissioners marched
right up the hill and then marched
right down again, at least four of
them.
Monday afternoon city council com
mittee of the whole voted to recom
mend for passage an ordinance which,
in effect transfers various city hall
departments, but leaves Commission
er Butler's asphalt plant undisturbed.
Commissioners Towl. Ringer. Zim
man and Ure were the original mem
bers of the council to vote to relieve
Butler of his asphalt plant These
officials have agreed to rescind their
action.
In explanation of his vote to re
tract, Commissioner Zimman yester
day said: "It was understood among
the allied candidates before the elec
tion that certain changes were to be
made in the interest of economy and
efficiency. It was understood that the
asphalt plant should be in the city
engineering department and Mr. But
ler agreed to that on the understand
ing that certain employes in his for
mer department of finance and ac
counts would be cared for under the
new administration. I deny for my
self any attempt to build up a politi
cal machine ' in this city council.
Resents Referendum Threat
"No member of the- city council
should be permitted to threaten his
colleagues with a referendum. It was
discourteous for a member of this
council to invoke the referendum on
a matter which happened to displease
him. The referendum is for the peo
ple interested, rather than for a city
commissioner. Persons who were
beneficiaries of the former superin
tendent of accounts and finance circu
lated the referendum petitions for him
and told signers that they were going
to turn down that d Jew. i will
vote for this new ordinance in the in
terests of public policy, but I may at
a later date bring in a separate ordi
nance to transfer the asphalt depart
ment from the street department to
the city engineering department"

SK'N DISEASES
abatement of your trouble, and
finally rrlake you entirely well. Fifty
years ago S. S. S. was discovered
and given to suffering mankind.
During this period it has proven its
remarkable curative properties as a
blood purifier and tonic, and has re
lieved thousands of cases of disease
caused by poor or impure blood, and
chronic or inherited blood diseases.
You can be relieved, but you must
take S. S. S. Take it if only" pim
ples appear, for they denote bad
blood, and may be followed by the
sufferings from torturing skin erup
tions. Therefore be sure. Don't
take chances, don't use lotions. Get

Texan in Omaha Attending the;
Woodmen Meeting, Says
Draft Will Be Increased
to 45 Years.
"Win the war quick," will be out
slogan, declared United States Sena-,
tor Morris Sheppard of Texas, who i
in Omaha this week to attend tha
executive council of the Woodmen of
the World.
"The senate will do away withjill
limits," he predicted. "I think the
draft age limit will be extended to 40
or 45 years. Every resource and every
dollar in America will be thrown into
the ring to win the war and tr win if
quickly. Of course, that will really be
the cheapest victory in the long run," (
explained the southern gentleman
with a smile.
Author of Dry Bill.
Senator Sheppard is the author ot
the national prohibition bill, now
pending. When asked about the bill
he said emphatically. "I think it will ,
be passed with little trouble. Tht ,
outlook is good."
The senator is emphatic in declaring
that congress has decided to rush all
war bills and to leave no stone un
turned in throwing all of the nation's
resources, both of men and money,
into the fight to win the war. An in
terview with the master prohibitionist
leaves one impressed with the fact
that America is resolved to win the
war and to win it as fast as possible.
"I BELIEVE THAT IT
SAVED MY LIFE,"
SAYSMRSJOWARD
Former Trained Nurse, Gradu
ate Believue Hospital, Gains
25 Pounds By Taking
Tanlac,
One of the most interesting of th
many remarkable statements yet
made In connection with Tanlac was
given by Mrs. Marie J. Howard, who '
resides at 402 Westlake Ave., North.
Seattle, recently. Mrs. Howard haa
been a resident of Seattle, recently.
Mrs. Howard has been a resident of
Seattle for the past eighteen years, .
and before her marriage, was a
trained nurse and a graduate of Belle
vue hospital. New York. When
asked if she would be willing for her
statement to be published, she said:
"Yes, indeed, and you may start it
by saving I believe Tanlac has saved
my life.
"I have suffered from stomach
trouble and disordered liver and kid-
neys for five years and had gotten
in such a bad condition that I honest
ly felt like I was going to die. .
Everything I would eat fermented in
my stomach and the gas formed by
it would cause my heart to palpitate
so my breath would , almost stop.
There were intense pains all through
my back about my liver and kidneys -and
I can't begin to tell how I did
suffer. I had fearful headaches and '
was so nervous I hardly knew what
sleep was. I was often down in bed
for a week at a time, hardly able
to raise my hand. Then I would
manage to stay up for two or three
days, but would have to give up and
take to my bed again. I would often .
go for two or three days without
eating a mouthful of anything. I
lost weight right along and am tell
ing the positive truth when I say I ,
was in such an awful condition that
I thought I was going to die.
"After reading and hearing so
much about Tanlac I bought a bot- ,
tie, thinking if it did others so much
good,-perhaps it might help me, too.
Well, it has not only helped me, but
I have actually gained twenty-five
pounds since I began taking it and
have never felt better in my life. My
appetite is good and my stomach in
such a splendid condition that I can '
hardly eat enough and I don't suf
fer a particle afterwards. AH, my
pain and misery is gone, my kidneys
anl liver are acting splendidly and
my nerves are perfectly strong and
normal. I sleep every night like a
child, and den't know what it is to
have a headache. My husband has
also taken, Tanlac with wonderful re
sults. In fact, I think it has done
him as much good as it has me, and
we both consider it thefinestmedicine'
made."
