v THE BEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1919. CHINAMAN AND WHITE GIRL ARE HELD BY POLICE '' Chadron. Neb., Restaurant , Man and Former Waitress Arrested in Council Bluffs Hotel. Gee Bing Yoo, Chinese restaurant man at Chadron, Neb., and Cleo VValtman, 16-year-old wife of Frank Waltman, also of Chadron, were held yesterday by Council Bluffs police i while inquires were being made concerning them. The woman ad mitted that she was "just a run away girl" who had left her husband and firmly intended to become the wife of the Chinaman. They will be turned over jto federal officers Thursday. The Chinaman brought the young girl from Omaha late Tuesday night in a taxicab, police say, and secured a room for her at the Kiel hotel. He left immediately and did not re turn until Wednesday. People about the hotel became suspicious and asked police to investigate. Questioned together, both admit ted that their only purpose in com ing to Council Bluffs was to get . married. Neither knew anything ' about divorce procedure. Gee Bing said he became acquainted with the girl in Chadron and that she worked in his restaurant. He said he sold the place and came to Omaha and had completed arrangements for a restaurant business there. RAILROADMAN STATES HE HAS VMS FIGHT Almost Ready to Give Up His Run Tanlac Kept Him On the Job. "I put up a 'game fight to keep my run on the railroad, because bad health was just about to make me give it up, but with the help of Tanlac I am still on the job, feeling like a new man and with more en durance than I ever had," said F. C. Stewart, of the Rock Island Rail road, who lives at 810 North Glen ' dale, Peoria, 111. "When a man has been on the railroad for eighteen years like I have, working long hours and eating irregular meals and just snatching sleep like I had to, it's bound to tear down his constitution, and that is what happened to me. My stom ach got in such a shape that the food in the restaurants along my run made me sick to look at, and what little I-could force myself to eat didn't taste right and would lay like a rock in my stomach. This sort of thing began to break down i vmy health ten years ago, and noth ing but pure grit kept me goin. My strength wore away and I fell off in weight until it just seemed like I couldn't take out many more , ; trains. Then I began to hear some ' of the boys talking about this Tan - lac, and I knew it couldn't make me any worse than I was, so I started taking it. "Right there is where I side tracked my troubles and hit the main line to good health again. The first few doses made me want to . eat, and after I had been taking Tanlac a while I found that I could swing off of my train and snatch a '.'P lunch in a hurry, and it didn't mat ter much how it was cooked or what it was, it went right to the spot and did me good. I can eat just anything I want, the only trouble now is getting enough to satisfy me. My sleep is restful I can go to bed at night and, unless the call boy happens to come for me during the night, I never wake until morning. But when the call boy comes it takes several good loud raps on the door to get me up. Then when l start out on the run I feel strong and full of energy as I ever did in my life, and can do more work than I ever could. I have told several of the boys how this Tanlac has helped me, for I know how hard it is for , a railroad man to keep going, and I want them to know" how to keep fit." 1 Tanlac is sold in Omaha at all Sherman & McConnell Drug Com pany's stores, Harvard Pharmacy and West End Pharmacy. Also For rest and Meany Drug Company in - South Omaha and the leading drug gist in each city and town through out the state of Nebraska. Adv. Aspirations and Ideals Depicted by True Lovers Mother and Sweetheart Tell Qualities Desired to" Fill Their Ideal of "The Perfect Lover." The loves, aspirations and ideals of the world are depicted in the numerous communications being received by the Movie Contest Edi tor of The Bee on the subject of "The Perfect Lover." Because of the great Interest be ing manifested by Nebraskans in determining the supreme lover, The Omaha Bee has consented to ap portion $20 among three persons who best put their ideals of the per fect lover in words. To the fourth Kcf nrtrlravr an antncrranhd oho- tograph of Eugene O'Brien, the perfect lover of filmdom. will Dt given. Mother's Ideal Lover. One of the many representative letters on the subject reads: "ITirct r( -ill h cVinnM he a ffen tleman in all things; clean cut and moral in every respect. Ever thoughtful and careful, not only of the girl he wishes to marry, but of all. He should help and assist the aged, giving them every attention and care. Polished and refined in his manners, gentle and courteous to the working girl, treating her with as much respect and deference as the wealthy or fashionable one. "He should be good and revere his mother, show her all respect and consideration, ready to serve her at any time, saving her worries and cares and also many unnecessary steps. He should love her above all else in the world and guard her as he would his life. "Be true to your principles and hold your honor above all things, and whether you be handsome or plain, if you are a true gentleman you can't help but be a perfect lover." Passionate Ardor of Youth The above, signed by Mrs. . Harley hotel, is evidently moth er's ideal. The following has prob ably been penned by a young woman who has just felt the passionate ar dor of youthful love: "Headlong, impetuous, he gives me thrills that come once in a life time. My heart beats double-quick just thinking of him truly he must be a perfect lover. There's nothing in the world that doesn't in some way include him, suggesting him in a hundred ways; every sunrise, brilliant glowirrg sunset, exquisite picture, wistful bit of verse, clever story, nothing I dont' long to share with him. The minute he's called out of town the world is a poor place to live in though his train is but a few miles out of town, I feel that he's at least in darkest Africa. Music means longing for his return, a dim lighted room, but a heartache, for he's a 'perfect lover.' "Many times I've wished to ex press myself fully and freely (anonomously) in regard to Eu gene O'Brien's lovemaking. Eugene O'Brien's Lovemaking. "Delicate, dainty in everything he does he is indeed a "perfect lover." Passionately in love as he often be comes, speaking in a movie way, ardent as his lovemaking may be, he is for all that, a great-hearted, wholesome boy, clean and fine in all that he does. "Really he has the temperament to be a perfect lover," how often one hears someone say this, and how potent the meaning to women! How different the interpretations, for we each of us demand a great deal of mere man more I'm sure than we fully realize. "My sweetheart is fine and pure as a flame. French, he has all the fineness and culture of a nation famed over the world for refine ment of warfare where, as in love, "all is fair." His keen mind, sen sitive kindness, love of all that's beautiful, and thinking that I above all women am the most adoredly exquisite, makes him to me at least, a "perfect lover." Addres all letters to the movie contest editor of the Bee. "Swept by (aline breezes nd washed by the waves ot the eea. That's our town." "Any other street cleaning facilities?"

You run no risk of acquiring superfluous hair when you use ordinary mercolized wax. There is nothing better for a iisS colored skin, as the wax actually absorbs the offensive cuticle gradually, gently, so there is no detention indoors and no in convenience. The discarded complexion naturally is replaced by a clear, smooth, healthy one full of life and expression. It's the sensible way to get rid of a freckled, tanned, over-red, blotchy or pimpled skin. Just procure an ounce of mercolized wax at any druggist's and ap ply nightly like cold cream, erasing in the morning with soap and water. It takes a week or so to complete the transforma tion. Adv.
