10 THIS BEE: OMArfA. 'MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1920. My Heart and My Husband ADELE GARRISON'S New Phase of " Revelations of a Wife" The Means by Whfeh Dr. Pettit Put Madge at Her Ease. Df. Pettit, intent upon hl errand, evidently a most important one, hur rird to the back of the pharmacy and called in a low voice that yet held the peremptory note I remembered io well: "Ut. Crown." ttjt pharmacist came immediately from the middle room, adjusting his eye glasses as he did so. "Ah, Dr. Pettit!" he said genially. "In a hurry as usual. I see. I'll be with you as soon as I've finished a prescription." "But this" Dr. . Pettit's roice dropped to a low murmur, of which I caught only the words, "impera tive, hospital. "In that case," Mr. Crown looked toward me. I saw that the moment ' of recognition was imminent I might as well hasten it. An Adroit Excuse. "I shall be only too, glad to give way to Dr. Pettit," I said demurely, walking toward the physician and holding out my hand. How odd that we should meet out here." I added banally, angrily conscious that 1 was flushing under the queer startled look which he bent upon me. His own face had drained of all color at my words, and his lips had formed but one hoarse monosyilable: "Youl" The next instant, however, with an evident einbat rassed consciousness of the curious gaze with which the genial pharmacist was naturally re garding us, he had released my hand I firmly repressed a wince at the strength of his f lasp and was talk ing naturally. 'You must pardon me for my agi tation. Mrs. Graham. You resem ble so strongly a woman whom 1 knew well, was reported missing from her nursing work in France, EX-KAISER ALWAYS A FOOL, MEMOIRS - OF BISMARCK SAY Penchant for Inscribing Mar ginal Notes Dates Back To 1887. Suttgart, Jan. 18. Former Em peror William's penchant for in; scribing marginal notes on docu ments passing through -his hands dates back to 1887, when he was still Prince Wilhelm. This practice apparently nettled Bismarck, who re quested the heir to the throne to dispense with such effusions, which the prince promised to do. This is one of the incidents brought out in the third volume of the "Iron Chancellor's" memoirs, which were the subject of injunc tion proceedings before the court. The bench announced that decision on the former emperor's petition for suppression of the volume would be made known January 24. Total of Six Letters. , , , The volume contains a total of six letters written by the former emperor at various stages of his ... career. One of the first three, writ ten while he was prince, refers to a proclamation he proposed to ad dress to the rulers of confederated states in view of the "not improb able eventuality of the early deaths of my grandfather and father." In reply Bismarck told the prince that the best thing he could do was to consign the proclamation to the fire as quickly as possible. One letter from Emperor Fred erick III, in which he expressed regret pver the crown prince's edu cation and general nature, is in- eluded in the volume, it is said, for the purpose of proving that the father was out of patience with bis son's mental development and gen eral' temperament. WiD Launch Campaign To Make Aliens Better Understood in America New York, Jan. 18. Raids and de portations have so unsettled the foreign-born population that hun dreds employed in basic industries are preparing to leave the. United States, according to the" Interracial council, which announced launching of a campaign "to make aliens bet ter understood and to lift them from the status of mere cogs in a machine to the status of human beings." The council, of which Coleman T. Du Pont is chairman and which in cludes in its ranks more than 400 leading financial and industrial or ganizations representative of nearly all the races in America, purposes in its campaign, according to its state ment, to accomplish the following objects: , "To offset bolshevist propaganda among the foreign-born through na-"tion-wide educational activities. "To v promote better relations among the races in America by pre senting the side of the foreign-born and translating America to them in terms which they will understand. "To end unrest among the foreign born in industry." Johnson May Contest With Harding for Ohio's Favor Columbus, O., Jan. 18. Senator Hiram W. Johnson of California, indicated that he may contest with Senator . Warren G. Harding tf Ohio, for Ohio's support for the re publican presidential nomination. In a telegram to Secretary of State Smith he said: "What is final date for candidates to qualify in the presidential pri mary election in your state? Please outline what requirements, such as filing petitions, must be fulfilled by candidates in order to get place on presidential .ballot." Smith answered him that all that is necessary is to file a declaration of candidacy before midnight Feb ruary 27. Buys Wyoming Farm. Beatrice. Neb., Jan. 17 (Special:) Sidney Rossiter. an old resident of DeYVitt, has purchased an 800-acre ranch near Cheyenne Wells, Wyo. and will locate "there soon with his family. He purchased the land for $40 per acre. and whom her friend have given up as lost, that for a moment I thought a miracle had happened, and that you were she. Naturally I was star tled. But it is good to see you. How are your husband and that wonder ful baby?" He was telling a deliberate false hood, and I knew it. But I also knew that he had desperately brought into the conversation some mythical woman in order that the druggist might not later comment mentally or orally upon "the doc'i being all tumbled to pieces at the sight of that Mrs. Graham." I eould imag ine the swirl of gossip in the village and was grateful to the physician for his adroitness even though his quickly concocted tale ws so bi zarre a one. "The usual stuff, I suppose, doe tot?" Mr. Crown struck unobtrusively into the conversation. At this mild reminder of the emergency for which be had requested instant at tention the color came back into Dr. Pettit's face in a brick-red flush. He turned to the druggist quickly. Dr. Pettit's Offer'. "Yes, yes, also this." He handed Mr. Brown a slip. "I've left my en gine running." v "That means you want the'' stuff in about 30 seconds," Mr. Crown laughed. "Oh, I know youl But you'll have it in, say two and a half minutes exactly." He disappeared behind the parti tion, and by a sudden common im pulse the physician and I moved to ward the front of the store before we spoke again. I was both annoyed and perturebd at this unexpected meeting. Dr, Pet tit, despite his many sterling quali ties, and the gratitude 1 owe him for his wonderful service to my fa ther, is a most uncomfortable per son t6 liave in one's horuon. He is so intense, and takes life so seri ously that his presence rather tacts a damper upon any gathering. And then I could not forget certain rather tense moments in my past experience when this man had be trayed a regard for me which was more than friendship, and had much embarrassed, jne. Dicky's only too patent and un reasoning jealousy of the young phy sician had put into our friendship necessarily more than an ordinary acquaintance because of Dr. Pet tit's relations to my father an un comfortable note, and, though I was lather ashamed of myself for my fmgraciousness I had been heartily relieved when the physician had-finally been released to depart for the medical training ramp, and had him self invested his departure with the air of a final and decisive farewell to rne. WliaFVas to be his attitude now? I feared a touch of the old intense ness from his exclamation and pal lor upon seeing me, felt a sudden distaste for the man and his emo tions. In Dicky's parlance, I was "a bit fed up on melodrama." Dr. Pettit bent toward me, his face tense and drawn. "Please," he said, "don't fear that I shall ever trouble you with that old foolishness. But also remember that I am at your service whenever you need me. You can get me at any minute. I'm helping out an old school friend here, who was gassed in the war. And I'm not even go ing to ask you where you ar stay ing. So you see you are safe from annoyance at my hands." (Continued Tomorrow.)

Bright and cheerful Is the word, and no one is wait- 1 ing for spring to start things. As usual, Omaha is taking the lead. On every hand ; I there are evidences of the progressive spirit of the city j and its citizens, and the hammer and saw resound ; throughout the environs and purlieus. Great buildings are going up, or are being planned, ; C and improvements are mapped out in all directions. Buildings and businesses are enlarging or improving ; their quarters, and fi'om every direction is heard the rumbling of the chariots of prosperity on their way to Omaha. This business pickup is not local to the Gate City of the West, however, being observable throughout the land. And this despite the premonitions usually felt at the approach of a presidential political phantasmagoria. One reason for it is found in the gradual subsidence of the strike and industrial troubles. The bricklayers' strike has been settled, the coal miners are industriously delving into the bosom of the I. earth, and appear to have long since forgotten their late . troubles, and the railroad agitator gains but few sympa- : thetic ears for his wailings. It is not alone in the industrial world that the revival of activities is noticed in the marts of trade and com merce, barter and exchange there is hurrying to and fro, the fluttering of checks and the clink of gold and silver. Two of the largest deals of late years have recently been put through, one of them being the sale of the Fon tenelle hotel. With the advent of this surge of new life it behooves I the ordinary business man to watch for a good place to I slip in and join the procession. Shake off the sluggish inertia resulting from the mismas of the last year, clean out the fevers of doubt, indecision, and trepidation that would bid you wait for official publication that old times have returned, and get in the vanguard of the brave spirits that are taking ad vantage of opportunities while they are still in the making.

This can't be done by standing behind the counter waiting for some of the passing crowds to drop in. They are on the move, moving along to the next cor ner where the other fellow is out with a horn the big oom-pah advertisement that carries his glad tidings of good goods at low prices far out into the country districts. There are two ways of increasing business taking some of it away from the other fellow, and going out after l new business that neither of you have got; This last is out in the country. There's only a I certain total amount in the city, and if you do only a city I business you're taking it away from your next door neigh- fbor. and that doesn't do vou a much cood as it drM trip I other fellow and the city harm. You can build better by using new bricks than you can with old bricks from the other fellow's house. And if you put the other fellow out of business you reduce our own opportunities. For instance, imagine two towns, one with three stores a grocery, dry goods and furniture store, and the ' other with three stores of each kind. To which town are the most people going?
