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."

Rupture Kills
7,000 Annually
Seven thousand persons each year are
laid away the burial certificate being
marked "Rupture." Why? Became the
unfortunate ones had neglected themaelve
or had been merely taking care of the sign
(swelling) of the affliction and paying no
attention to the caute. What are you
doing T Are you neglecting yourself by
wearing a truss, appliance, or whatever
name you choose to call itt At best, the
truss is only a makeshift a false prop
against collapsing wall and cannot be
expected to act as more than a mere
mechanical support. The binding pressure
retards blood circulation, thus robbing the
weakened muscles of that which they need
most nourishment.
But science has found s way, aid every
truss sufferer in the land is invited to
make a FREE test right in the privacy of
their own home. The PLAPAO method is
unquestionably the most scientific, logical
and successful self-treatment for rupture
the world has ever fcnown.
The PLAPAO PAD when adhering close
ly to the body cannot possibly slip or shift
out of place, therefore, cannot chafe or
pincb. Soft as velvet easy to apply in
expensive. To be used whilst you work
nd whilst you sleep. No straps, buckles
or springs attached.

Omaha Business Men Not
Waiting for Spring All
Lines Are Out Hustling
By WILLIAM TANQUERY.
;;
Everything Is looking up.
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?
Think It over.
And get busy.
