WIFE REPENTS
WHEN DIVORCE
SUIT IS FILED
, Pretty Mrs. C. E. Brewer Says
Lawyer Put, Untrue State
ments In Petition; For
gives Husband.
A week after she filed a suit for
divorce in district court Mrs. Char
lotte Eulalie Brewer has withdrawn
it and "made up" with her husband.
Mrs. Brewer, a strikingly beauti
ful young woman, dressed in the
latest mode, says that Attorney
Mike Harrington wrote out the peti
tion and made allegations which
were totally untrue. - - . '
"I don't want a divorce now,
" anyway," said Mrs. Brewer, toying
with a jewelled vanity case. "The
minute my husband saw that arti
cle in The Bee he took the first train
for Omaha and came to see me. I
. live at the Sanford hotel with my
.mother. And when I saw what the
petition stated I, was amazed, and
so$teve and I fixed it up and I or
dered the divorce petition with
drawn." , v
Petition Charged Cfilelty.
The petition as prepared by the at
torney and filed 10 days ago in dis-
trict court stated that the defendant
had "assaulted, struck and beaten
the plaintiff;" that "when she was
seriously ill he abandoned her and
left her alone and refused to provide
. a doctor for her," and that "he never
bought any clothing, for her nor fur
nished her money for any purpose."
"I just was a little bit provoked I
imagine when J went and asked the
attorney to file auit," she said. "I
told him just to make the grounds
. nonsupport and nothing further be
cause Steve would never dream of
treating me in any such way as the
petition" iaid.--The attorney told me
I didn't need to read the petition
over but just to sign it. I should
have read U and then it never
would have been filed."
"-: Husband Is Merchant.
Mrs. Brewer is a daughter of Ed
ward Edwards and was born and
brought up in Omaha. She was
educated in private' schools.
She was married November 2S,
1916, in Omaha. She and her hus
band went to Gordon, Neb., where
he 'owns a clothing - store. His
mother lived with them there.
He went into the navylast sum
mer and was discharged in Febru
ary of this year. Mrs. Brewer came
back to Omaha in June, 1918, and
has been living with her mother at
the Sanford hotel. She is employed
as private secretary in a wholesale
lumber firm here.
"I reallycan't say whether we will
live together again," she said with
a smile. "That is all dependent
upon developments. I do like the
city and would much prefer to live
here rather than in-fhe small town."

Krug Pkrk to Have Largest Swimming Pool in Country

Omahans need no longer ro out
of the city,; to take a good plunge
and swim, as the management of
Ney Krug Park is constructing the
largest swimming pool in the world
for citizens to enjoy during the hot
summer months.
The pool will cover more than an
aere of ground, accommodate 5,000
bathers at a time and have an ocean
sand beach some three foot deep and
40 odd feet' wide encircling the en
tire pool.
The water in the pool is entirely
changed every two hours. It is fil
tered, aerated, sterilized and ozon
ated by an entirely new "process of
water purification making it abso
lutely pure at all times even fit to
drink; the water taken into the pool
is ozonated under high pressure,
killing all germ life and germ mat
ter. , The water is distributed into
ttupool at equal distances of 50
feet, leaving no dead pockets as it is
in constant circulation over entire
area. A pin, in this pool of water
can"', be seen at the greatest depth,
while it is next to impossible to lo
cate a silver , dollar at the same
depth in the vater one drinks.
The water taken into the pool is
first screened and filtered- through
three of the largest type filters
made. From the filters it passes
voltage from which it passes into
enormous mixing towers where
ozone is forced into the water at a
high pressure. '
The pool is constructed of. con
crete with white surfacing and is
unsurpassed any place in the world.
A beautiful rock work cascade over
12 feet high, located at. the north
end, besides being a Work of art,
further aerates'much of the" water'
taken into the pool. 1
The bath house, some 400 'ftet
long, having about 100 showers and
accommodations .for some 5,000
bathers at a time, is approached by
long winding walks from the main
entrance. This building ontains all
into' an ozonating system of high khe laundry equipment, which is the
newest and most up-to-date procur
able. A 100-horse power boiler
working under-100 pound pressure
provides the live steam for the laun
dry machinery, as well as means of
heating the waterfor the showers
and providing hot air for the hair
dryers which will "be installed for
the convenience of the laiies. ,i
Omaha's new- bathing ,popl re
quires upwards of 1,000,000 gallons
of water to fill and the special wave
making machines installed at two
different places produce most na
tural qcean wave.
Special rooms may1 be secured by
the season, ' consisting of lockers,
dressing room add showers for the
conveniences,, of those who desire
special accommodations.. ,
DRESS UP WEEK
TO BE OBSERVED
By OMAHA FOLKS
Special Menus at Hotels With
Dinner Dances and Bands
Inducement for All to
Dress Up.
Governor McKelvie has indorsed
"3ress-up week," which has been
announced for March 31 to April
5, under the auspices of Associated
Retailers of Omaha.
Features of the occasion will be
lavishly decorated show windows,
special menus at the tables, after
dinner dances, bands playing in the
streets and other appropriate dir
verti'sements and observances.- . .
The Omaha Retail . Merchants
association will co-operate. MerchT
ants will add an educational feature
by demonstrating and ; explaining
the new modes and ideas for all
classes of people. , The philosophy
of the occasion is explained by the
promoters, who state that many
have sacrificed during the period of
the war, even to tne extent of de
nying themselves their usual quota
of new garments. With the advent
of spring, and peace on earth be
ing realized, it is deemed a fitting
time to dress up without indulging
in extravagance. '" l
Governor McKelvie wrotethe fol
lowing letter to Charles Black of
the Associated Retailers:
' "I feel very highly complimented
in being asked to lend my co-operation
and support, and the co-operation
and support of the people of
Nebraska, to the splendid 'dress up
week' campaign now being launched.
I am confident that progressive Ne
braska business men, with the best
grace in the world, will set out to
make this the biggest educational"
movement that has ever been staged

All Praise the Essex-$li395
A New Car That Men Have Long Wanted
Thousands Ride In It -Will You?
Note what all are saying about the Essex. s
In hundreds of cities ihas awakened a greater motor car interest
than anyone has seen in years.
, More than a hundred thousand have ridden in the Essex. Ten
times as many have seen it. - s

V."
The -qualities in the Essex which
appeal most are those very qualities
that are most attractive in the light,
cheap car and those of the large, costly
cne. They are comfort, riding ease,
endurance, and elegance at a moderate
cost for purchase and operation.
' Every Essex Sales Room Now
Holds Motordom's Interest
People instantly admire Essex
beauty. They speak of the detail and
care with which it is finished. They
note its lines and talk of features that
have been exclusive to costly cars.
They are enthusiastic over its riding
qualities as shown over rough roads
and worn-out pavements, ine
f Essex does not pitch its pas
sengers about. It remains
rigid and firm and free from
rattles and squeaks no matter
v how rough the service. There
is no need to drive miles out-
of the way to avoid a rough stretch of
road. It goes over the worst roads
like a big, costly car.
The Essex is demonstrated on the
same steep hills that are used to prove
climbing ability by high-powered and
costly cars. Speed is shown over the
same course that fast cars are demon
strated. Its acceleration is compared
to the few cars noted for such per
formance. Buyers Being Placed
On Waiting List
Dealers have already booked orders
for more cars than they are scheduled
to receive before midsummer.
It is doubtful if anyone will
be able to get an Essex as
promptly as he may want it.
But by ordering now the
delay won't be quite so long.

Lovel What, is it? It is the deep

Love is constantly changing, and
most people love many times, but a
few do remain true and have but
one love in their life; even then
their love is not the same all 'the
time, for it dies down and springs
up again like a fire,
However, this is rarely the case,
for every one has loved, but not al
ways the' same thing or the same
way. Love then is the deepest emo
tion of the human being.
No. 328.
Love is the controlling force of
life and the greatest emotion in the
world. Through'divine love God
created the universe and,. alt that is
therein. His first commandment is
to love Him and His second to love
each other.
The force of love flows from our
hearts through all the channels of
our body in a continual stream of
ecstacy and -bliss, bringing to each
of our senses complete physical sat
isfaction and to our souls, perfect
spiritual accord and rapture. .
The emotion of love harmonizes
all the lesser feelings of life. When
the smile of trust freezes on our lips,
when the jewel of faith melts into
nothingness in our hearts, when the1
blindness of hate hides the stars
from our eyes, when the hand of
unbejief in humanity and ourselves,
presses in sorrow on our brow;
then love brings laughter to our lips,
bliss to our hearts, the light of hope
and happiness1 to our eyes and sym
pathetic understanding to our . fel
low men. ,
In every thought, -wish, act and
movement of our daily lives we are
seeking- this force- and- emotion
called love. For love is the "home
sweet home" of both body and soul.

Love is like a Ford engine. It has

Juliet says: "My heart is as
boundless as the sea my love as
deep. The more-1 give to thee the
more I have, for-both for infinite."
hat is a sufficiently comprehen
sive definition of love. Love is one
thing that reverses the laws of
mathematics: Subtraction is equiv
alent to addition.
Love is an infinite capacity for
service and suffering, but as it mani
fests an increased service its suffer
ing grows less.
, Love never seeks its Own ag
grandizement. It never asks: How
can youv serve me? but ' always:
What would yoi have me do, my
beloved? It is modest and unas
suming. It seeks nothing for itself.
It gives all. It is the nost absent
where it is more professed.,
Love is' the foundation of all
things. . '
No form of restraint, olljer than
that which it placed upon itself, ever
held love within bounds. Its Own
bonds intensify and make it substan
tial, but it becomes as vapor when
there is placed upon it restraining
chains. -
, Love seeks nothing that cannot
be shared by all. . Its small mani
festation for private ends is only a
varioloid form of disease, for which
marriage is a potent cure.
Love is the eternal paradox. It
pervades everything, else would the
universe vanish, yet it is the rarest
thing in the world.
