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

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?"

To Discard Freckles,
Tan, Pimples, Blotches
The use of creams containing animal
urease sometimes causes hair to grow.
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.
