Luxury and Richness
h Secretly or avowedly, women are always de-
'l lighted when the time comes to don their furs.
) There's a suggestion of luxury and affluence about
the rich, velvety gloss of the sealskin, the soft gray
of the chinchilla or the quiet "splendor of hundreds
of others.
1 Have you yearnings for any of these winter
i garments that combine luxury with service in dress?
, Our collection of furs 'makes possession easy for
there is a fair profit no fancy, extortionate prices.
; And you may safely rely, not only on the furs them
selves, as to wearing qualities, but on everything
) that we tell ' you about them. The skins vwere
v selected by our own buyer and th garments made
' in our own workshop. 1

a letter to Dr. Caldwell written by Mr. L
Rosenthal, 6 W. 28th St., New York, N. Y.)
Nearly every disease can be traced to
constipation. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is
a combination of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin that quickly relieves constipation and

SOCIETY
EVEN with the conveniences of
travel which made trips to
Europe so swift and so en
joyable in the days before war
swept over the world, the lands
across the seas seemed very far
away. The world war brought us
so close to our allies that now 1'aris
and London seem almost as acces
sible as New York.
As soon as the news reached here
that the armistice had been signed
many Omaha mothers began to plan
the menu for the Christmas dinner,
confident that a stalwart son in
khaki would be a member of the
family circle on that holiday.
News of Omaha men now in
European capitals is always of deep
interest and it may be possible that
some of them may be returning in a
few months, if not as early as the
Yuletide season. Ensign Hugh Mil
lard is now stationed in London but
visits in Paris very often, where his
brother, Lt. Alfred Millard is now
staying. It may be that Lieutenant
Millard will return within a few
months.

Secret Marriages.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
We are two girls 18 years of age, and
are war brides. We were married
secretly in another state before our
husbands went across a month ago.
We are now greatly purplexed, won
dering whether it is best to tell our
folks, as our families have always
been considered the best in the town
and we are afraid it would hurt their
pride. Both of our parents are very
strict and we fear the result if we
confess. We love our husbands very
dearly and are in constant dread of
their being killed or wounded.
Where could we apply for work if
we were deprived of our homes? We
always have been used to any luxury
our parents could give us and we do
not know what we would do if we
were forced to work. Is it proper to
go to dances, etc., with other boys?
Our parents would think it peculiar
if we did not. Could our marriaRes
be annulled if our parents wished it?
ANXIOUS AND PERPLEXED.
If you were both 18 when you
were married the marriages could
not be annulled. You should cer
tainly tell your parents at once what
you have done. Personally, I think
you did very wrong to marry, and

United War Work Notes.
Returns from the house-to-house
canvass for the United War Work
campaign are coming into the
women's committee offices slowly.
Reports from the booths in the
banks, stores and hotels give a total
of $7,934.65, which makes a total of
$15,065.76 for the women's commit
tee. Mrs. Henry Miller, who is in
charge of the work in the theaters,
will not make her report until the
end of the week.
Miss Rhoda Foster, in charge of
the campaign for the Victory Girls,
reports $22,699 from 9,774 girls out
in the state. The Victory Boys in
the state report $22,044 from 9,089
boys.
The Victory Girls in Omaha in
the high schools and public schools
report $15,355 from 7,959 girls. The
Victory Boys have collected $13,236
from 7,003 boys. The parochial
schools have yet to be heard from.
A group of boys in the Field club
district have formed a "kazoo
band" under the leadership of Philip
Wernher'. They have earned their
money by playing in the neighbor
hood at 5 cents a tune. Their en
gagements have been many, for the
entire hand of six pieces have paid
the $5 pledge.
Our boys are show
ing remarkable pro
ficiency in hurling
hand - grenades or
bombs. From ear
liest infancy our
boys learn well to "throw ball,"
and this stands them in good-hand
in "throwing back" the Hun. The
explosion takes place quickly, scat
tering pain and destruction jnst
like an uric -acid explosion within
the body-. One day a man's all
"O. K." next morning when he
tries to get out of bed Oh, such
pain! Pain in the back (lumbago)
or hips, shoulders, arms, legs or feet
(rheumatism or gout). This rheu
matism is the result of an uric-acid
explosion within, probably following
excessive use of meat or beer
or over-exertion and over-heating. Swollen hands, ankles and feet are
due to a dropsical condition, often caused by disordered kidneys. Natu
rally when the kidneys are deranged the blood is filled with poisonous
uric acid, which settles in the tissues of the feet, ankles, wrists or back
as uratic salts; or under the eyes in bag -like formations.
' It is just as necessary to keep the kidneys acting properly as to keep
the bowels active to rid the body of poisons.'
Uric-acid poisoning and rheumatic pains can be conquered and expelled
by taking a little " Anuric." This is the recent discovery of Dr. Pierce,
and can be had at all good drug stores. If yon want a trial package,
eend 10 cents toDr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo. N. Y.
Jewish Welfare Board
To be with the Jewish soldier ev
erywhere, aiding him, cheering him,
serving him loyally and helpfully,
and through him his country and the
ideals for which it stands this is
the purpose of the Jewish Welfare
board.
The Star of David man must be a
multple benefactor. Every Jewish
boy who comes to camp is his friend
and protege. He must be a spiritual
leader, teacher, guide, counceller
and friend to all boys from all sta
tions of life of all shades of
thought. Everything from leading
a "minyan" to staging a boxing bout
for the entertainment of the boys
falls within his province.
Every Jewish religious observance
of great or minor significance is
marked by services in the camps.
The Jewish Welfare board supplies
prayer books and special literature
and other essentials to orthodox and
reform observances. It arranges
with the War and Navy departments
for Holy Day furloughs for Jewish
men on Rosh Ha Sonah, Yom Kip
per and Passover. Whenever ex
pedient, the men are allowed to go
home for the duration of their fur
loughs. In the towns near canton
ments, homes and synagogues are
thrown open to the men in khaki and
blue. The community branches of
the Jewish Welfare board work with
the camp representatives to bring
the soldier and sailor back into the
holiday atmosphere of home.
Keeping step with the boys in
khaki and blue, the Jewish Welfare
board is following the flag to the
battle front. Responding to the in
sistent plea of the Jewish, boys with
the Stars and Stripes overseas, for
rabbis and welfare workers of their
own faith, a commission of three
prominent men was sent abroad,
and it spent some time in training
camp, hospital and trench. The
commission immediately cabled for
welfare workers and chaplins, and
their recommendation was support
ed by a request from General Per
shing for chaplains of Jewish faith.
Headquarters were promptly estab
lished in Paris at 41 Boulevard
Haussman.
To do special work for the Jewish
men in the service and for the war
stricken women of belligerent coun
tries, a woman's division for over
seas work was organized to send
abroad a unit of 100 women work
ers. The Council of Jewish Women,
Federation of Temple Sisterhoods,
and Young Men's Hebrew associa
tion and kindred associations are
co-operating in the plan.
Where the "minnies" whiz over
head, the "Mogen Dovid" is bring
ing cheer to thousands of boys. The
feeling that his co-religionist has
not deserted him is doing much to
sustain the morale of the Jewish
fichter. At the front the Jewish
Welfare board works with the Y. M.
O A. and K of C, Salvation Army
and Red Cross.
Tewish men do not wish to be the
less American because the are Jew
ish; they realize that they are all
soldiers of America, fighting or
ready to fight and die, if need be,
in the cause of America. They want
to be brothers to the Protestant,
to the Catholic, to the men of all
faiths, who are at their side. They
are in the war both as staunch Jews
and loyal Americans, approaching
ever the highest -ideals of demo
cratic citizenship.

Lonesome Soldier's Wife.
Dear Miss Fairfax. Omaha I!ce:
am 18 years old and have been
married Just three months. My
husband is in France and he has
been wounded once. Will he bo
sent home or will he bo kept there
for some light work? I do not
think his wounds are serious, as ho
was up and about in three weeks'
time from when he was wounded.
His folks are very kind to me, but
somehow I feel that they fee: that I
am beneath them, as they are always
saying that they were disappointed
in their son's choice. HUD.
Your husband is probably already
back in the fighting. Soldiers are
not sent home usually, unless they
are wounded so badly that they are
incapacitated for further military
work. 'Poor little girl! You must
be very unhappy, being told so often
that you are a disappointment. How
ever, you can only try your very
best to make of yourself the kind of
woman they wanted their son to
marry. Be a Rood wife and a good
daughter. You are still young and
there Is lots of time and opportunity
to work toward self-improvement
