Armour Manager Explains the
Beneficial Features of New
and Unusual Publicity
Campaign.
R. C. Howe, manager of Armour
; & Co., told the Rotary club at the
Fontenelle hotel, Wednesday noon,
of the unique advertising campaign
, now being conducted by his com
r pany in this territory. The ads ..re
, full newspaper pages and are now
"... running in the Omaha papers.
C. "The whole idea of this campaign
t- i ; unique, he said. Each ad ad
vertises Omaha first of all. Men
tion of the Armour product is
merely secondary. Each ad also
-.,has a patriotic appeal, urging people
f to help the war work campaign and
to keep their Liberty bonds.
"We urge stock men and farmers
f to patronize Omaha stores and job-
, bing houses, showing them that in
- proportion as they build up Omaha
ihey will enhance the values of their
, own properties. In a way the cam
paign is selfish because we believe
' that our business will prosper in
; proportion as Omaha prospers.
Y Omaha Logical Market.
.v "We believe that the Armour
products are so good that their use
v will grow almost automatically.
Therefore we are trying to show the
! people another reason why they
. should buy our goods, namely, be-
cause of the good we are to this
j; community.
v, 'Omaha is today the logical live
. stock market of this country. Long
ag Albany, JM. Y., was the main
"' livestock market. Later Buffalo.
then Cincinnati, and finally Chicago
became the big live stock centers.
?. Omaha, as the great gateway to the
4 grain producing areas of this coun
. try and the great railroad center of
roads leading from the live stock
areas is the great livestock market
of the future.
Tremendous Business.
"Last year Armour's Omaha
;. plant killed 1,380,000 head of live
: stock which cost about $75,000,000.
j We shipped out more thart-15,000
'. cars of finished products. Our pay-
- roll was more than $4,000,000, sup-
- porting 2,800 families and prac
V tically all this money was spent in
, Omaha. We purchas.d more than
13,500,000 worth of supplies in
v Omaha.
. "People don't realize what a valu
able thing the packing house is. The
. mere value of the dressed beef is
5 from 10 to 20 per cent less thanl the
; price we pay the stockman for the
. live bullock. The rest is made up
, by byproducts which we have de
t veloped. We use up every part of
i the animal. In the last three months
we even developed a product which
- stops the flow of blood. This was
carried by our soldiers in France. A
bullock slaughtered in a packing
r house yields from $7- to $9 more of
' value than the same bullock slaugh-
'cred on the farm where all these
V byproducts cannot be utilized.
'; . Tells of City's Growth.
' . "When I came to Omaha 20 years
ago the grass was growing in the
business streets. It wasn't an at
. tractive city to shop in. Now stores
and other industries have been built
up and we believe that there is no
better city for the stockman and
farmer to visit and do his shopping
s. when he markets his stock."
Mr. Howe presented copies of
the series of page newspaper ads to
;he Rotary club.
He was introduced by A. M. Gil
Ian as ;"a boy who went info the of
fice of P. D. Armour 34 years ago
as office boy and made good and a
nan who started the Omaha plant
' of Armour & Co. 20 years ago and
has developed it to its present proud
position.'
The Rotary club will make an ef
fort to get 100 per cent of its mem
.: bers to become members of the
Omaha Athletic club. A room is to
be set aside in the new club house
for the use of tthe Rotary club.
Damage Suit Halted j
; When Star Witness
1 . Faints in Court Room
. Clinton Goff, 609 North Seven
teenth street, brought a damage suit

court when he fainted a few minutes
after he had taken the witness stand
' , as plaintiff . against George L.
Grothe, Charles Carpenter and
Burt county, .
The judge ordered a recess until
2 p. m. Wednesday.
Goft brought a suit for $10,000 al
leging that while riding in Grothe's
automobile in Tekamah. he suffered

Indian Chiefs Request
Hospitality of Omaha,
Mayor Says "Come"
An unique letter was received by
Mayor Smith from Chief Red Fox
Skinhushu, Yakima Indian reserva
tion, Tappenish, Wash. Chief Red
Fox wants to be the guest of the
city on an overland trip from Wash
ington state to Washington, D. C,
where he has a message to deliver
from his tribe to President Wilson
His letter is as follows:
"My dear honorable mayor: My
cousin. Black Hawk, and myself, are
requested by our tribesmen to make
a trip on our Indian ponies to the
White House to ask the president re-
garaing our iriDcs ana 10 as iun
citizenship. We first Americans
want to be like any other Americans
on American soil. We asks if we
can be the guests of your city on
cur arrival. We are asking the
mayors of various cities to welcome
us and put us up over night and our
two horses. It may be January first
part or March, 1919. Will you
kindly reply?"
At the bottom of the letter are
drawn pictures of a wigwam, wolf's
head, man bearing olive branch and
the pipe of peace.
Mayor Smith has written to Chief
Red Fox telling him that the city
awaits the coming of him and his
cousin and hotel and stable- for men
and beasts are ready.
Major Gallagher Abroad to
Aid Quartermaster Inspection
Mai. Benieman Gallagher jr., son
of Mrs. Bent. Gallagher, and vice-
president of the Paxton-Gallagher
wholesale grocery company, will go
to Europe to assist Lolonel Mcin
tosh of the quartermaster's depart
ment to make an inspection tour of
all the quartermaster depots in
France, Belgium and Italy.
The fact that Mr. Gallagher had
the good fortune to sail on the same
vessel with Mr. Hoover led to the
statement that he was one of Mr.
Hoover's Dartv and that his "mission
abroad was for the purpose of study-
ng food conditions abroad.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Well-known local druggist iay
everybody ii using old-time recipe
of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Hair that loses its color and
lustre, or when it fades, turns gray,
dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack
of sulphur in the hair. Our grand
mother made up a mixture of Sage
Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks
dark and beautiful, and thousands
of women and men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark
shade of hair which is so attractive,
use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous
mixture improved by the addition
of other ingredients by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound, which darkens the hair so
naturally, so evenly, that nobody
can possibly tell it has been ap
plied. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with St and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. By morning the
er&y hair disappears: but what de
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur' Compound is that, be
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, it also
brings back the gloss and lustre and
gives it an appearance of abund
ance. ,
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful ap
pearance to the hair. It is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or
prevention of disease. Adv.
Rheumatism
A Home Cure Given by
One Who Had It.
In the spring of 1893 I wa at
tacked by Muscular and Inflammatory
Rheumatism. I suffered as only those
who have it know, for over three years.
I tried remedy after remedy, and doctor
after doctor, but such relief as I re
ceived! was only temporary. Finally, I
found a remedy that cured me com
pletely, and it has never returned. I
iiave given it to a number who were
terribly afflicted and even bedridden
with Rheumatism, and it effected a
cure in every case.
I want every sufferer from any form
of rheumatic trouble to try this
marvelous healing power. Don't send a
cent; simply mail your name and ad
dress and I will send it free to try.
After you have used it and it has
proven itself to be that long-looked-for
means of curing your rheumatism,
you may send the price of it, one dol
lar, but understand, I do not waat your
money unless you are perfectly satis
fied to send it. Isn't that fair? Why
suffer any longer when positive relief
is thus offered you free? Don't delay.
