THE International Woman Sut
: frage Alliance convention for
1920 will, be held in Spain.
Miss Chrystal Macmillan, first re
cording secretary of the organiza
tion is now in Spain making ar
rangements for the convention in
Madrid. She sets forth as some of
the important matters on which de
cisions will be reached:
"1. The emancipation of women
In those countries where the vote
has not yet been won. The alliance
will decide how it can help the wom
en of such nations to obtain their
political freedom. ( -
"2. Marriage laws, guardianship,
and rights of children. These differ
in various countries, and only in one
has the married mother equal pa
rental rights with the father. Un
der thenevv German constitution
passed in July, and in the drafting
of which 38 wpmen members of
Parliament took part, there is now
equality of the sexes in marriage, in
cluding parental and property rights.
"3. The industrial and profession
al status of women. This again is
different in each country. Some na
tions have already conceded the
basic rule of equality in regard to
the professions, while others have
hardly begun to consider the ques
tion. In industry it is the powerful
trade unions that have to be dealt
with. They are afraid that the en
try of women would undermine the
position which they have labored to
bring about. But equal opportuni
ties and equal pay for equal work
would obviate that difficulty. It is
also essential that regulations con
cealing the hours of women's labor
and other restrictions should be de
cided by women themselves. The
Danish Rigsdag has recently passed
a bill emhodying the rule of equal
pay for women in all positions under
the state.
"4. Widows and mothers' pen
sions. America has made an excel
lent beginning in the right direction;
and England and other countries are
-now working for legislation on the
same lines.
"5. Women in the league of na
tions and the status of women
throughout the world. Nothing short
of absolute equality will satisfy.
"6. Direct citizenship for women."

nearly all prescriptions and remedies
for coughs. . The reason is that pine
contains several peculiar elements that
have a Temarkable effect in soothing
nnd healing ths membranes of the
throat and chest.
Pine cough syrups are combinations
of pine and syrup. The "syrup" part
is usually plain sugar syrup.
To make the best pine cough remedy
that money can buy, put 2' ounces
of Pinex in a pint bottle, and fill up
with home-made sugar syrup. Or you
can use clarified molasses, honey, or
eorn syrup, instead of sugar syrup.
Either way. you make a full pint more
than you can buy ready-made for three
times the money. It is pure, good
and very pleasant children like it.
You can feel this take hold of a
cough cr cold in a way that means
business. The cough mar be dry,
hoarse and tight, or may be persist

phlegm. The cause is ike same in
flamed membranes and this Pinex ana
Svrup combination wilt atoo it
usually in 24 hours or less. Splendid,
too, for bronchial asthma, hoarseness,
or any ordinary throat ailment.
Pinex is a highly concentrated com
pound of genuine Norway pine ex
tract, and is famous the world over
for its prompt effect upon coughs.
Beware of substitutes. Ask your
druggist for "2ft ounces of Pinex"

Gray, streaked or faded hair is
not only unbecoming, but unneces
sary, j
Anyone can prepare a simple mix
ture at home that will darken gray
hair, and make it soft and glossy.
To a half -pint of water add 1 ounce
of bay rum, a small box of Barbo
Compound and 4 ounce of glycer
ine. These ingredients can be bought
at any drug store at very little cost,
or the druggist wrll put it up for
you. Apply to the hair twice a
week until the desired shade is ob
tained. This will make a gray
haired person look twenty years
younger.. It is easy to use, does not

Morpheus
You dreadful old coward
Vile and full
Of deceit
Why don't you fight
In the open
Why take advantage
Of Sleep.
When Somnus
Wraps me in slumbers
To relax
My world-weary brain
You slip in with tricks
O, so dreadfull
To show that you're
God of my dreams.
But you've never been square
By half
With me
You've torn my wild heart
With jealousy
Maddened my senses
Conspired against me
Thrown me from heights
Into bottomless pits
1 fall and fall
But never alight.
In a ball room
Of brilliance and splendor
Where everyone's cultured
And gay
I discovered a tramp
Was my escort
Clumsy in evening attire.
Out in the jungles you've led me
With ferocious beasts
At my heels
1 ran
But never reached safety
I struggled without a gain.
I've seen all that I love
In Life
Leave me
My lot was the bitterest gall
I have frenziedly joined
The bandits the thieves
And was hunted .
Tormented by all.
I have shouted for help
When in danger
Cried in vain
For my voice was still
Insanely I've shot ' .
At my rival
But never a shot has killed.
Long days I have walked
In blindness
Prayed to Heaven
To open my eyes
But no Diety heard
No Divinity helped
No power would lift the veil.
Somnus is a fair false Goddess
Whose smile is offensive to me
And old Morpheus is surely
No God of Dreams
He must be the Devil
Of Night.
If Sleep is anything
Akin to Death .
O Powers that be -Grant
me this
Strength to eliminate
Treacherous sleep
And give me
O Maker! .
Perpetual Life.

Campaign to Open
Saturday for a
$4,060,000 Fund
Omaha. Tan. 14. That women are
rapidly gaining a prominent position
in American political life and that
Smith college at Northampton,
Mass., has been a large-factor in
training women to take up this kind
of work, was the declaration here
today of Mrs. W. S. Curtis of this
city, chairman of the Nebraska-
Montana district in the ?4,UTO,UUU
fund campaign to open January 17
for the Northampton institution.
Mrs. Curtis statement follows:
"Our women are just getting
started on the road to political suc
cess. Ihe day will come when they
will be as numerous' as their breth
ren in public berths. This has to be.
Woman is not a fly-by-night butter
fly, bhe is no longer an office deco
ration or only a kitchen mechanic.
She is more versatile than the oppo
site ssx because she is capable of
being at the same time a good sis
ter, a strong mother, a home-builder
and a business head.
"We need more of this kind of
women. Smith college is supplying
numbers of them and nine out of 10
become wives and mothers. These
are the women who are able to- take
their places beside the men in our
national family life and by pooling
their mutual resources to produce
results that are really extraordinary.
"Our college women doot seek
to supplant men in public life. They
seek to do their share, although
many of them are far more capable
executives than they are helpers.
Smith college needs money to carry
on the work it has so well begun in
educating thousands of our young
women for a more useful life. We
cannot go ahead as a nation unless
we realize that our young women
need the best that can be offered
them for their mental and physical
welfare."

Surprise Sandwiches.
Did you ever bite through two

and find a crisp, cool, well-seasoned
slice of cucumber or tomato con
cealed between them?
This is the pleasantest kind ' of
surprise and served with a tomato
misque or with the fish course it
will quite throw the main dish into
the shade. The cucumbers should,
of course, be kept in cold, salt wa
ter until shortly before the sand
wiches are to be eaten.
The bread may be spread with
mayonnaise but the sandwich is even
more delicious if the cucumbers are
merely dipped into a well-seasoned
French dressing, in which the oil
plays even a larger jsart than usual,

Until recently there has been a
noticeable slump in the silk markets.
So bad has the situation become
that many department stores had
partly discontinued their silk serv
ice. During the past year, however,
silk has come back into its own
and now adorns many of the spring
and summer costumes designed by
fashionable modistes. Here is shown
a very smart sport costume of .1920,
Fan-Ta-Si. The lovely shade of tur
quoise blue in the sport hat matches
the deep coloring of the skirt. The
handbag is also fashionable.

Cosmopolites
We're harmless guerillas who join
in the chase
Of any old quarry to any old place;
The torrid equator, the icicled xone
Have bounded the travels we travel
alone.
We circle the globe in search of,
perhaps,
Conflicting excitements, diversified
scraps.
Though once in a while we long for
a roof
Above us, there's something which
holds us aloof
From civilized centers, when yet
there remain.
Unwandered Rialtos on distant ter
rain.
Admittedly stupid where money is
earned,
We're wise in 'the legends the four
foot has learned.
Pervading the reaches from lichen
to palm,
There dwells for us all a peculiar
' calm;
Which often when cursed by a
thousand fatigues
We hobble along through the pain
bitten leagues
Rewhispers there's many a ledger-
bent cuss
Who'd like to swap jobs any morn
ing with us.

Des Moines Enthuses Over
Biennial Meet of
Federation
Omaha women have been asking
what was accomplished at the gen
eral federation board meeting held
in Omaha last week. The answer is
that plans were made for the "Gold
en Prairie" biennial to be held in
Des Moines next June, and progress
gained toward some reorganization
of machinery in the federation. A
more complete answer is found in
an article printed several days ago
in the Des Moines Register, which
says in part:
Des Moines, the chosen biennial
city of the General Federation of
Women's Clubs, is the rendezvous
this week-end of club women of
state and national prominence, the
incentive being the visit of Mrs.
Littleberry J. Haley of Birmingham,
director from Alabama and chair
man of the Golden Prairie biennial
program committee.
Ihe coming of Mrs. Haley to Des
Moines following the midwinter
conference of the national federa
tion officers, directors and depart
ment chairmen in Omaha, divulged
to the club women some of the def
inite facts concerning the program
in which thousands of club women,
who will come to Des Moines next
June, will be vitally interested.
'Americanism wi I be the kev-
note of the convention," said Mrs.
Haley, who has devoted two years
in the preparation of the program
for next June. Its purpose, will be
to promulgate and inculcate those
principles of Americanism which
won for America world leadership,
to instill that part America shall
take in the reconstruction plans
which the war has made necessary
to be done all over the world."
That means .ohvsical. oolitical
and spiritual reconstruction."
stated Mrs. Haley. "These three
special activities will be worked
out unitedly through all the 11 de
partments of the federation which
will concentrate on thrift, which is
an individual matter; on community
service, which is group matter, and
Americanization, which is national
in scope. t
' The greatest mass meeting of the
convention, said Mrs. Haley, will be
held on Sunday afternoon, June 20,
and will be the largest of the ses
sion, since men and women alike
attend this meeting. This will be
devotional in character and also in
spirational, which is the keynote of
the evening sessions.
Dr. Lvnn Harold Houeh. nresi-
dent of the Northwestern university,
will be the speaker on this occasion,
his topic being 'The spirit of Amer
ica," continued Mrs. Haley. "It is
an interesting fact to note in con
nection with the speaker that he
was sent by the United States gov-
.w o'livnv 5 j a i,( v uuiiug int. rv at
period to interpret to England the
war spirit or America, in tms ca
pacity he so pleased the English that
he was called to occupy the City
Temple in London, the largest
church in the world, during the en
tire month of August.
"Another speaker of national im
portance before the convention.
said Mrs. Haley, will be Dr. Marian
Burton, at present president of the
University of Minnesota, but who
will soon go to the University of
Michigan to be its head.
Another great feature of the con
vention will be the presence of the
general federation overseas unit,
that unit financed by the organiza
tion and which to the boys over
there meant America. The girls,
together with their great leader,
Mrs. Blade, national Y. W. C. A.
worker, will be present to bring in
spiration also to the convention.
"This Des Moines biennial means
more to me than any other bien
nial," Mrs. Haley continued. "To
day for the first time I have felt
really happy about it, before it has
been a solemn affair because of the
responsibility, but as I look into
your faces I want more than ever
to work with you and for you.
From now on you will not have a
single free moment in preparing
for the biennial which a prominent
government official has said, 'Such
a convention will be of incalculable
benefit to the government,' and the
result will be so far reaching that
it will make of the Des Moines bien
nial a read letter year in the history
of the general federation."

June Bride.
Dear Mlsa Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Kindly tell me what your suggestion
would be for .a g-lrl that's to be mar.
rled In June? Have no relatives, so
will he married at a parsonage and
leave immediately after on a trip
west. What would be a practical
and yet inexpensive traveling out
fit? Thanking you kindly.
Tou will probably wish to be mar
ried In your traveling suit, since the
wedding la to be at the parsonage,
and you leave immediately for a
trip. I believe you will And a dark
blue or a tan shade good selections
for color. A dark blue suit always
looks trim and neat, but shows the
soil of travel much more quickly
than a dark tan. A certain shade
of tan, bordering on "fawn," does
not spot or show dust easily and yet
may look like a light suit. Such a
shade, with brown oxfords and hat,
would make a good looking outfit
for travel. A blouse of lighter shade
Just as pretty as you can afford
would complete the costume. Wear
a corsage during the ceremony. Two
extra blouses ought to be Included
in your wardrobe and at least one
dress, which can be donned for din
ner at hotels where you stop. If
your dress Is in tan or brown, your
brown silk petticoat, hose and shoes
will match nicely.
Nerve, Not Advice.
' Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am a young man, 20 years of ase,
and would be glad to have you give
me a bit of advice. If a young man
wishes to take a young lady out for
an auto ride in what manner should
he approach the subject to her?
Also if he wishes to take her home
from a place of amusement? After
he has taken her home how and in
what words should he express the
appreciation of her company?
Thanking you in advance and
hoping to see this letter in print, I
remain, G. L. M.
Tou need a little nerve, not ad
vice. The way to ask a young lady
to go auto riding is to ask her
preferably in good, English. If you
wish to invite her to an entertain
ment, ask her several days or more
in advance. "Do you care to go for
an auto ride with me?" or any simi
lar direct question. In leaving her,
it is polite to say you have enjoyed
the evening if you have and say
you would like to call again if you
do. Etiquet says a young lady
should first ask a young man to call.
After that, he may invite her to date
with him. If you care' enough for a
girl to take her home from a dance,
why don't you do the really com
plimentary thing and ask to take
her both ways? ' ,
Matrlmotiially Inclined.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
You always give such excellent ad
vice that I also am coming to you
ior aavice.
I am a widow, 48 years old, and
my children are grown and they
want to get away from home and
do for themselves, and I feel that
in a very short time I shall be left
alone.
I have been llvinsr on i ranch Tru
ths last five years and have worked
hard to provide for myself and chil
dren, and I now feel that I would
like to quit the farm and settle
down in a good home and take life
a little easier. I have been robbed
of all church privileges and other
social advantages that I was accus
tomed to before I came west and I
miss these very much.
