MORE- DEADLY

Said That Epidemic Coat Mora Lira
Than American Loss in Battle.
Danger Not Oyer. Great are
Necessary to Prevent
Further Outbreak,
Tha appatlinf ravages of Spanish In
lluema in thia country are perhapa beet
realized by the statement recently made,
that more deaths have resulted in little
more than a month from thia disease than
through our whole eighteen months par
ticipation in the battles of the European
War.
Our greatest danger now, declare au
thorities, ia the great American tendency
to forgfft easily and to believe tha peril ia
over. Competent authoritiea claim the
coming of cold weather is very apt to
brine: a return of thia disease and there
should be no let-up throusrhout tha win
ter montha of tha following easily ob
served precautions, remembering that In
liuenia is far easier to prevent than cure.
, Influenia la a crowd disease . Arold
crowds aa much aa possible. Influenaa
germa spread when ifrnorant er eareleas
persona sneese or cough withoct using a
handkerchief. Cover up each eough or
anei-, Do not apit on tha floor, side
walk. In street care- or public place
Avoid tha use of common drinkitur eupa
and roller towela in publia places. Breathe
some reliable germicidal and antiseptic
air to destroy the germa that de find
lodgement in your nose or throat.
Remember, ne aafer precaution against v
fnfiuensa could be employed in thia man
ner than to gat from the nearest drug
store a complete Hyomei Outfit consisting
ot a bottle of the Pure Oil of Hyomei
and a littie vest-pocket hard rubber ia
halimr device, into which a few dropa of
the oil are poured. You should carry thia
Inhaler about with you during the -day
and each half hour jr ao put it in your
month and draw deep breaths of its pure
healing germ killing air into the passages
of your nose, throat and lungs. .
By destroying germs before they acta
ally bewin to work in your blood, you may
amke youreelf practically immune to in
fection. ,.
All these sugsestiona about Spanish In
fluenia are equally true in the preven
tion of colds, catarrh of nose and throat,
bronchitis and even pneumonia. Don't
become careless. Do your part. Keep
tiie germa away. You may save yourself
a serious illnesa and the loss of several

How to Malta Hair Crow Strong,
Thick and Lustrous.
Few of us get bald in a day and
we all have ample warning when, our
hair is thinning out.
Parisian sage is a most efficient
hair invigorator, but to immediately
stop any further loss- of hair and
lUK'kly start a new growth it must
be rubbed into the scalp so . the
starved hair roots can really absorb
it and get the vital stimulation so
badly Deeded. You will surely be
tit-lighted with the first application,
f or your hair and scalp should look
and i-el 100 per cent better.
Frisian sage is not expensive.

llies all hair needs a clean, non-
ii'ikv, antiseptic liquid that is sold

(irup; and toilet counters everywhere
with guarantee to give you perfect
a:istaction or money refunded.
Good looking hair is half the bat
tle in any man's or woman's per-
.-m:u appearance. r,eeieet means

EACH morning when the paper comes,
After a glance at the headings
Which shout of our victories iff France,
And tell of our men on the Murman coast
And in Damascus and Bagdad, .
I turn to the casualty list ' ,
And slowly read the names in it.
I note each name the name of each boy
,Vho has gone out from his home
And died that homes might be safe.
Na matter how crowded my day,
I take time for this tribute,
As one stands silent in the street
While a funeral procession passes. '
Only this is a more loving- tribute,
. For these boys who have done their work
Do not seem in the least like strangers,
But trusted friends whose names are new,
Men of the breed I love, staunch, eager and swift.
Standing, I read their names and salute them,
. Crying across the space that divides us:
: "Fare on, bright comrades, speed to your reward,
You who went swiftly to face danger,
' You whom nothing could hold back
And no thing fill with terror.
There is nothing to face today
But God's white mercy.
The barrage and the gas, the shells and the shrapnel
Will no longer torment you;
There will be no more lying out at night
In the shell holes, watching for stretcher bearers;
You'U not know the sickening swing of the ambu

By GERTRUDE BERESFORD

long tight skirt of black charmeuse
fU two side panels of lace that are
also embroidered in jet. A sash of
black charmuese-and a big black
picture hat completes a toilet which
may be worn for- a variety of dressy
parties throughout the spring and
summer. Don't forget to putrhine-
stone buckles on your, black: patent
leather pumps or black satin slip
pers, for wear with this costume.

Advice to the Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Two Suitors.
Dear lilss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am 18, have a Jolly disposition
which makes mo- popular with the
1k-'. Three months ago I became
acquainted with a young man and
went with' him a month before he
enlisted and left for camp. M then
started keeping- company with a
youns man, and Christmas he gave,
me a watch bracelet,, and now the
soldier has returned. I like both of
the boys aa companions, nothing
more; bo when the soldier came
home I went with him to the show.
Now'the boy who gave me thewatch
is mad and won't have anything to
do with me. Shall I return the
watch or wait until he asks for it?
Did I do right In letting the soldier
take me to the show?
Thanks in advance.
BROWN ETES.
Tn the first n1a.ee vou should tint
have accepted so great a gift as a
i watch bracelet from a mere friend
but If you are net engaged to either,
and they cannot both consider your
friendship Jn the proper light, thtn
follow the dictates of your heart anil
choqst between them. If your friend
continues to be angry return his
watch and thank him for the pleas
ure you have had while wearing it.
Wishes to Earn Money.
Dear Miss Fairfax, ' Omaha Bee:
I am, a girl of 17 and I have como
to you for advice. My parents and
sisters snub me and everything that
happens they all look toward me
and say It is me. Then young poo
pie all say I am good looking ai:d
counted very pretty. I always try to
look on the bright side of every
thing but that time Is over, aa! I
would like very well if-you would
tell me as to what work I could pet.
as I would like very much to earn
my own money, as all I get I depend
on my parents. Please tell me as
to what work would be all right, as
I do' not are for housework. ' 'I
would love, to be a missionary as I
am real Interested In that kind of
work. Could you give me some in
formation of where I could find out
about It? I love church work and
would love to get into something
of that kind. Or some kind of war
work. And I would like to see my
answer In the paper this, week1 if
this does not find Its way to tho
waste basket. TROUBLED.
Speak to the pastor of "our
church about becoming a mission
ary. He can probably give you good
advice. You might also write the
Y.. W. C A. at Omaha and ask them
for information. They may be able
to give you a position here in the
city. ...
. An "A" and "B" Problem.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
"A,' a young man 19, was taken ill
recently and at his request an In
timate friend of his. a girl of 18,
called "B," visited hiai at his home.
"B"N:ame unescorted' at about d p.
m. This was her second visit, the
first being made with a married sis
ter of hers a few weeks previous.
"B" has known "A's" sister for al
most two years, hut has not associa
ted with her veir intimately.
When it was after 9 o'clock A's"
sister asked "B" to . call up her
mother, saying that she would stay
with "A's" sister overnight, for she
had. no one to escort her through
the park to reach the elevated to
get home. "B" declined the invita
tion on the ground that it was be
fore 10 and that she was not afraid.
We should like your opinion as
to whether It would have been
suitable for "B" to have accepted

aren't you making too much of a

would be any Impropriety In one
girl's being the other's guest mereiy

quite mistaken. If "B" had chosen
to accept the invitation there could
have been no ground for criticising
her. '

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am a girl 15 years old and have
quite a serious time as I have two

I don't care bo much for, is nearer

vise me to take.

An affection confined to women
must have its causa ia the womanly

Home-$ick Eooks"Are in
Great Demand by Our
Soldier. Boys -
What might be described as home
sick books are greatly in demand at
the army camp libraries established
by the American Library associa
tion. A home-sick book means a
novel usually the scenes of which are
laid in the neighborhood of a sol
dier's home. "I certainly enjoyed
'Perch of the Devil," said one strap
ping westerner. "You. know my
home tsn t 20 miles from the scene
of that story.!' Part of Zane Gray's
immense popularity in the camps is
because so many western men know
the country he describes so vividly.
A stray copy of The Country Gentle
man containing an installment ot a
serial story, "The Desert of Wheat,"
was brought to a certain librarian
with an eager request for tha rest of
the tale. "I was brought up on a
wheat ranch," said the soldier, "and
I sure want to know how this fellow
came out with his big harvest."
An architect with a Harvard edu
cation wandered mournfully into the
library at Camp Dcvens looking for
something.to read. He almost wept
for joy when "Life of the Missis
sippi" was handed him. He'd known
it all in his boyhood, and turning the
leaves he showed the librarian one
after another of familiar places.
