WORTH, who is now living in the town of Homakua toka in the island of Maui, writes glowing accounts of the life on this beautiful, tropical island. Miss Woodworth is an instructor of mathematics and history in the larg rst private school in the islands. The exotic flowers and luxuriant "oliage are a constant source of de .ight, Miss Woodworth writes, all :he cottages in the island are bow ers of beauty, with the flowers and ,ines almost covering the low roofs. Six of the teachers of the school live together in one cozy cottage, luiilt on the old Spanish style with all the rooms opening on a large rourt. The young women have de lightful times, for the many Ameri cansvliving nearby do all in heir power to entertain the girls from (heir native land and there is no time to be homesick.

Elizabeth Caldwell, for the past eight and one half years manager of the Salva tion Army Girls' Rescue home, who is to be transferred to Des Moines November 1, Omaha loses a woman who, in a quiet way, has done an in estimable amount of good. Major Caldwell has been for near ly 20 years in the work of helping girls whom fate or their own self ish love of pleasure has led to the brink' of ruin. The Salvation Army homes in Cleveland, .0., New York City and St. Louis, have been suc cessively under her charge previous tg her coming to Omaha. When Major Caldwell came here there was a big mortgage on the home. This is now paid off, regard less of the fact that little publicity has been given to the need for money. This work is necessarily of such a confidential nature that the public knows little of the pitiful cases that are careaMor. Since the major has been fn Oma ha nearly 500 girls have been cared for in the home. Of these 500 girls, all of whom have been constantly followed and guided in their after life, 85 per cent have kept straight and are now all happy. Most of them have been married, in many cases to the fathers of their chil dren, and in some other cases to good men who have been willing to overlook their misstep. The home requires that each mother shall keep and care for her own child, feeling that the care of the little one will help give her courage to face the future. In the 17 years in which Dr. Strong was physician at the 1iome and the more recent years in which Dr. Samuel McCleneghan has been in charge of medical work, not one death has occurred. Motherly care and cleanliness, combined with proper medical attention for the charges, have made this record possible. ; fajMiiaieMQUie Irmiyr,"- a The home is supported out of the very limited finances of the Army Some few good men and women of Omaha contribute quite generously, realizing the necessity for this work and the fact that the Salvation Army is handling it correctly, out of a wide experience with sinning and suffering humanity. Lack of funds is a chronic condition, how ever, although when there is work to be done in this line, Major Cald well has always managed to get it done. The Lord will provide, say the good soldiers, and the Lord has always done so. Ensign Lillie Ness will be Major Caldwell's successor, coming here from St. Paul, Minn., where she has made an enviable record in rescue work. . emnized Sunday afternoon i at the Merriam hotel.

Needs Cheering. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: Do you think it all right for a young man in the last draft to keep com pany with a young lady, as I will probably not be called into service before spring? I am doing so. as my brothers are In the army and in other parts of the country, and I am lonesome. Should the boy ask every Sunday evening for the lady's company the next Sunday, or- is It supposed he will call again, unless otherwise planned? gome folks have told me I should not start keeping company with any one, knowing that I may be called Into service. But I am so lonesome that I feel t need someone's cheery words to help "turn the dark clouds inside out till the boys come home." v NED. Many people think" the universe can't be properly run without their unsolicited advice. Of course it is right for you and the girl to "keep company" if you both want to. It is a matter which concerns your selves alone, and your friends have no right to try to deprive you of the girl's friendship. It is safer to make the definite en gagement each time you want to see her; also more considerate, as she may at some time be uncertain as to whether you are coming and want to make other plans. If you' have made the definite engagement she will be spared possible worry and uncertainty in making her plans. I wish you the best of luck In your companionship with the girl who cheers you and makes you less lone some, and hope your friendship may continue. Too Young for Lovers. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I am a young girl of 17 and am con sidered very popular among my gfrl friends. I am rather good-looking and when I go to dances and parties all the young boys ask for introduc tion to me. I met a young man last fall three years my senior and got well ac quainted with him. Ever since that he wrote Jo me, and when he moved nearer to where I was he came to see me and asked me to go with him, and I did. After a month or so he went to the army and is now "over there." I am sure he loves me and I think very much of him. I am not en gaged to him, but before he left he told me I should not go with an other one. s Now, Miss Fairfax, would he have any reasons to get jealous and not write any more if I went with an other one? DARK-EYED B. If you really love the yoang man, why do you want to go with others? Would you want him to become very friendly with other girls? Perhaps the reason he did not tell you of his love, providing it existed, was that he realized you were tooyoung for such things and he felt it unfair to you ,to bind you. If you want the society of other boys, by all means go with them. I think you will have forgotten the loved one by the time he returns. Lost His Address. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: Please tell me how to write to a sol dier boy in France. I have forgot ten his regiment, but he went from here. lie is a friend. B. D. You will have to find out his ad dress before you can write hlm. Do you not know of some other young man who went with him? If so, call up or see this man's relatives and get the address of them. If your friend enlisted, call at the re cruiting station and see If they can help you. If he was drafted, the exemptlonjboard may be able to ad vise you. " Lonesome. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I am a young woman 35 years of age and have been an interested reader of your column for a number of years. Now my trouble is this: I am so lonesome. At times I feel so blue for want of love. NO one seems to care for me. I am con sidered real attractive, but for some reason I cannot get acquainted with the men. I am jolly and considered a "good . sport," but for some un known reason I -am not popular. I am sure I am capable of showing the men a good time, as I have a splendid voice and can play, the piano. I'm a stronger in the city. Please advise me at your earliest DREAMLAND ADVENTURE By DADDY "Sky Soldiers" (When Peggy eats leaves from tha Gol ickety shrub she is mads tiny and Invisi ble, and enabled to go as fast as she wants to In her toy airplane. Accompanied by General Swallow, she flies to Franco, where they find themselves In the mldsl of an air battle.) CHAPTER II. Foes in the Clouds. THE fighting airplanes were rush ing right at Peggy and Gen eral Swallow. The roaring whirr of ihe propellers gave warning of what would happen to anyone caught by them. They would cut a person or a bird to pieces in a flash. "Quick!" shouted Peggy, and her tiny plane leaped out of the way. So did General Swallow, who es caped only by inches. As the fighters sped past Peggy saw on the foremost one the black cross of Germany. On the second was the striped hat of Uncle Sam. Peggy caught only a glimpse of the Yankee aviator, but it was a glimpse which showed her a splendid young chap, handsome, alert, brave and determined. "Why, it's Teddy Rose, our neigh bor," she cried. Teddy was putting up a snappy, peppery fight, and the German was trying his best to escape the bullets that were being poured at him. Sud denly the German, dived downward, turned completely over in a "looo rthe loop" and came up behind Teddy. Ihen the Huns machine began to shower bullets at the American plane. But Teddy was not caught nap ping. He gave a sudden twist to get out of range, dived and again came up behind the German. The German looped the loop again and got in the rear. Teddy dove straight for the earth, straightened out, twisted around and came at the Ger man from another angle. This time his bullets went straight to the mark, for they put the Hun's engine out of commission. The German machine flopped like a wounded bird, whirled around and around as it dropped toward the ground and then straightening out just as it ap peared about to be smashed ino bits landed safely behind the American lines, where the aviator was quickly made a prisoner. Peggy, who had gasped with hor ror as the German plane fell, gave a sigh of relief as she saw that the hirdman was captured and not killed. "Some dandy fight, thatr shrilled General Swallow. "I'd say that the American airman is a better fighter than any airbird I've ever seen." Teddy, when he saw that his foe had been driven down, sailed away on the lookout for more enemies to conquer. He didn't have to look far, for just as Peggy and General Swal low were swooping down for a clos er inspection of the captured Ger man a second Gei.nan machine dart ed out of a cloud right behind Ted dy. Peggy gave a shout of warning, but of course Teddy could not hear, the roar of his engine and propeller drowning out all other sounds. While the shout was. on Peggy's convenience how to become popular with the men. IN DISTRESS. No woman can tell another how to be attractive to men. It is a gift. Very likely your trouble is that you are not accustomed to men and are too self-conscious. Don't think how to make yourself attractive, but how to make your friends feel at home and enjoy themselves. Usually one meets plenty of men, and if ihey think you good company they will fflnd occasion to see you again. Re member this, any man likes a laugh ing, happy girl better than he does a serious, ead-looking one. 4 Hair Dye. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: A lady has requested me to write to you and ask your advice. She is 25 years of age and is good-looking. But for such a young lady her hair is turning gray. Would it hurt the hair any to dye it with some kind of hair dye? The color of her hair is black. .WORRIED. Hair dye Is not particularly bad for the hair if you get a good one, recommended by a reliable druggist. However, if it were my hair I should not color it. Gray hair is beautiful and many young women wear it proudly. Dye never looks natural and often has a disagreeable odor. Women's Work? Are women as yet really needed in all our industries? One of our experts in industrial management believes that before the war ends women will be needed by the hundred thousands, and we ought now to be planning for their training and safe guarding. Now is the time to pre pare and develop plans and policies. Every woman should make herself fit for wars call at home or abroad. Health and strength are within the reach of every woman, and there is no better time than novo to try an herbal tonic, which has had a half century of practical demonstration and successful results in most of the delicate derangements and weak nesses of wqmen. It is the "Prescrip tion" of Dr. Pierce, used by him in active practice many years, and now sold by almost every druggist in tablet or liquid form. If it is a headache, a backache, a sensation of irritability or twitebiagj and uncontrollable nervousness, something must be wrong with the head or back, a woman naturally says, but all the time the real trouble very often centers in the organs. In nine cases out of ten the seat of the difficulty is here, and a woman, should take rational treatment for its cure. The disorder should be treated steadily and systematically with Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and the hygienic advice followed which Dr. Pierce gives free. For diseases from which women suffer, "Favorite Prescription" is a powerful restorative. During the ; last fifty years it has banished from the lives of tens of thousands of women the pain, worry, misery and distress caused by these diseases. Your neighbor rcould tell you. Address Dr. Pierce, Pres. In valids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., and get confidential medical advice en tirety free, or 6end 10c for trial package. "Pjrescriotion" tablet Peggy Gave a Shout of Warning. lips, a third German machine darted from the clouds, and then another and another, until there were seven foe machines making straight for Teddy. The young American caught sight of the Germans, but pretended not to see them until just as they were Kady to open fire. Then he dived and the acrobatics that followed brought him up behind the seven. Bravely he attacked the whole bunch. The Germans quickly dived and dodged to get out of his fire, their stunts being as spectacular as those in which Teddy had downed the first Hun machine. Then they closed in on Teddy, and it quickly became ap parent that they were too many for him. He might be able to whip them one at a time, but he couldn't whip the whole seven attacking at once and from several directions, f "I'm going to help him," ihrjekectf Peggy, though she didn't know what! she could do. f "So am I!" shrilled General Swal-i low, putting on his fighting look. f Up they darted, only to rind them! selves caught in a perfect hail of bul-: lets as the Germans tried to over-j whelm Teddy.
