"Who are the real monarch
in
this democracy of ours? Who are

said Mrs. H. H. Wheeler, of Lincoln.
addressing the political and social
science department of the Omaha
Woman's club at the.Y. W. C. A.,
Monday afternoon on the subject,
"Citizenship." "We are donnincr the
royal ptirpie 'as women and coming
into the kingdom, where we drop our
mandate-in the shape of a little slip
of paper into the ballot box. And
how can we better pay the debt to
tnose who have gone- before, or bet
ter serve our communities than by
consecrating our efforts" in order that
our mandate may come from an en
lightened conscience. .
Une thing we as citizens must
ever bear in mind--knowlcdge. There
is a great deal not only spoken, but
written, which, as an old colored
woman used to sav. is not 'know!
edgeable.' There is a great deal of
misinformation about public affairs
and it is to be hoped that women
who are so earnest, sincere and de

We must know for ourselves. It
must not be what 'somebody says
that somebody says that somebody
thinks. Leadership also is of great
importance, because large groups of

wrong with bad leadership.
Need School Laws.
"Do you know that in Nebraska
today 40 per cent of the children
go, to' school less , than, 40 days in
a year? There should come a time,
and that soon; when every child
born in the state of Nebraska shall
have a good education, because he
is born here. Da"you know that
the investigations 'made, by the
United States government in war
camp comunities, disclosed the fact
that more than 50 per cent of the
prostitutes were subnormal girls?
The average number of children in
a family is 4; the average number
in the, families of the feebleminded
is 73-4. -
Mrs. Wheeler said that women
have now a new relationship to add
to life, that of political affiliation.
Some women hesitate on this is
sue, she commented, but "it is an
adjustment of mind whitih'we must
make. Join the party which is least
objectionable, "'she advised, "and
then help make it less objection
able." "
Discuss School ' Laws.
Following Mrs. ' Wheeler's ad
dress, the meeting was thrown open
fcr questions which brought up
many interesting subjects, including
particularly, the changes which
may come in our school, laws
through the constitutional conven

NE of the outstanding motion
picture productions ot the jear
is the screen version of
Augustus Thomas' brilliant play,
"The Copperhead," with Lionel
Barrymore in the leading role. The
fact that, a whole villagei was con
structed and twice reconstructed for
the three main episodes of the
story is an indication of the large
scale upon which the picture has,
been produced. The success that
has 'been thus attained in securing
the real atmosphere of the period
in which the action o "The Copper
head" takes place is striking. In
the role of Milt Shanks, Lionel
Barrympre is superb. "The plot
centers around Milt's self-sacrifice
in performing a delicate mission
for President Kncoln in Civil war
days, which necessitated his posing
as a traitor to Iris country and thus
earning the scorn of eyen his own
family. Doris Rankin and William
P. Carletou are in the large and
thoroughly compete! company
supporting Mr. Barrymore. It will
he shown tle ntire week at the
Strand theater, and from present
indications will break the record
of all previous attractions for at

TTNLIKE her previous offerings,
Ij sthe act contributed by Ger
.trude Hoffman as the stellar at
traction this week at the Orpheiyn,
is a one-woman revue. Together
with an p.tigfoiented orchestra under
the direction of Max Hoffmann, she
displays her artistry in lavish stag
ing, mounting and -diversity of en
tertainment. The act opens with al
nance pantomime called Hie White
Peacock.'. Next comes a Spanish-
rumber, concluding . with The
Dance of the Allies." Both of these
phases tif her performance were
favorites with the high society night,
audience hst evening. So, indeed,
were the dance impersonations of
stage celebrities such as the por
trayal of Ann Pennington, Eddie
Foy, Fannie Brice and Bessie Mc

drum performance called "A Trip to
Coney Island." '
One of the quaintest, daintiest of
dramas is being shown at Boyd's

been selected for the honor of being
the last attraction at the beautiful

Sun and Muse The first laughing
death scene- ever to be shown upon

of heart interest, and which is offered
at both the Sun and Muse theaters
this week. This novel bit of action
was written by Frances' Marion, whp
prepared the script and whose life
long ambition lias been to write; a
laughing death scene. It occurs when
Pollyanna and her father try to play
the "glad game" even when he is at
the point -of death. In spite of the
fact that she knows her daddy is
going to the Great Beyond, Polly
anna laughs through her tears, plead

. According to late press reports is
sued Jby state and city health au
thorities, Influenza is again Incom
ing epidemic in many sections, and
much alarm is now felt that it may
become general over the entire
country.
The disease has made its greatest
progress1 in Chicagoand vicinity,
where thousands of 'Tiew cases, are
renorted daily. Recently 2,514 !
cases were reported in Chicago in !
one day, breaking last year's record
when the epidemic was at its height.
Reports from other sections are also
alarming, and the disease is gaining
headway in some sections of Texas,
Virginia, the middle west, and on
the Pacific coast. It has also ap
peared in other communities, al
though it has not as yet reached
the epidemic stage.
Owing to the lateness of the sea
son it is not thought possible that
the' disease can become the great
and terrifying scourge that -it was
last year, when it swept the entire
country and claimed its victims by
the hundreds- of thousands. The
danger is too great, however, to
take any chances, ' and everything
possible should be done to ward
it off. ,
' Medical authorities agree that
people who. are weak and run-down
are the earliest victims of Influenza.

nervous), weak, and losing flesh, or

My HEART and
My HUSBAND
Adele Garrison's New Phase of
Revelations
of a Wife
The Plan Harry Underwood Made.
I suppose I had been following
Harry Underwood's narrative with
breathless attention. At any rate,
as he finished, he looked at me
shrewdly, then threw back1 his head
with one of his old-time hearty
laughs. .. . ,
1 "Well, bless my soul if you aren't
registering a regular Desdemona
film," he said. "Gte, if old Othcljo
had ever had the chance to tell his
stories to you, poor little Des
wouldn't have had a look in 1 You're
a flatering listener, my dear Lady
Fair, and I hdpe I- have impressed
you sufficiently to make you see the
necessity for my sticking in , your
vicinity until you get out of these
woods and are safe, back with Lil.
You ought not to get 10 feet away
condition or catch cold easily, this
warning should be heeded promptly.
You are really in danger if exposed
to the disease, because it is gen
erally believed to be very contagious
and you are apt to fall an easy
victim if you come in contact with
the germs.
Peorile who are well and strong
are not likely to contract the dis
ease because they are able to throw
it off. The common-sense, way to
keep from taking it is to fortify
the system against attack by build
ing up the constitution,, in other
words, begin immediately to build
up your powers of resistance.
To accomplish this it has been
demonstrated that nothing on earth
will strengthen you and build you
up like Tanlac,-the powerful re
constructive tonic which contains
the very elements "needed to build
up the system and give you fighting
strength to ward off the Influenza
germ.
First of all, Tanlac begins its
work by creating a good, healthy
appetite for wholesome, nourishing
food, and assists every organ of the
bodv to Derform its natural func-
tion, thus helping to build up health
and stremrth in the natural way,
Tanlac is also an ideal strengthen
ing tonic for persons who are suf
fering from the after-effects of In
fluenza, Grippe and bronchial trou
bles, and hundreds of thousands are
using it daily with the most gratify
ing results.
In connection with the Tanlac
treatment it is necessary to keep
the bowels open by taking Tanlac
Laxative Tablets, samples of which
are enclosed with every bottle of
Tanlac. It is also important that Jhe
every-day rules of hygiene be- ob
served, that is, sleep in well-ventilated
rooms, get plenty of fresh
air and exercise, and keep away
from crowds. -
Tanlac is sold in Omaha at all
Sherman & McConneli Prug Company'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.
from her again until you're back in
civilization. She can handle any
thing, you know."
"Yes, I know," I said wondering
at the mixture of deep respect and
absolute lack of emotion the casual
ness with which he referred to the
woman who had sacrificed so much
for him with only duty as her
prompter. . , '
He glanced at me curiously.
"Don't worry about old Lil,".he
said, "She and'l understand .each
other or are going to. I'm' not go
ing to do any growling dog-in'-the-manger-won't
- drop - the-bone-stuff,
so save your weeps,' also "your cen
sure." - . .
My heart lightened with a bound.
His words were vague, might mean
anything -or nothing, buUl could
not help feeling a distinct relief
from the tension of suspense. I
had been under concerning Lillian's
happiness..
A , Warning.
"Come, we've' spent enough time
explaining and philosophizingiXMr.
underwood - adjured me suddenly.
"It's only a question of timt when
that chap either gets garage aifj or
commandeers another machine ai:d
conies tearing along after us. Of
course, we have this. advantSc?.
Svhatever-he. wants to talk to you
about, he wants to do it when there
are not witnesses present, and I
dcjri't think he . has a 'suspicion that
I know anything about you he
probably imagines I'm just some nut
that went off his head with, anger.
So he won't guess that you and I
are together." '
But how I stammered. "You
don't want fn lMm-nii nf th
j machines by the roadside, do you?"
"Would if I had to," he retorted,
cneertuily. "hut it won t be neces
sary. Say, you drive pretty weir
for a, beginner. Yotuaren't nervous
in straight driving where you don't
have to back or turn, antl know the
road but can you put up a pretty
good clip?"
"I think so," I answered, amazed
at the accurate way he had gauged
the good and weak points of my
driving. ,
The Pace Maker.
"Then I 'guess I'd, better set the
pace through the woods." he said.
"I'd go tacky, trying to'keep back
of you, and it will be casv for vou
to keep just enough distance back ot
nie to be able to stop if I do. p.on't
worry. I won't do any war messen
ger stunts. I'll slow up on turves,
and when I come to a bad stretch
of road I'll put my handout fcnd
wriggle my fingers so" he illus
trater his meaning graphically
"then you can throw your engine
into low. But don't be afraid to use
a little gas, for I'm going toxhit up
a clip when there's good going, and
you must keep right back of me. If
you need me just bang that horn
and keep it going. I'll be right on
the job. That would wake up Ga
briel, that horn."
I laughed involuntarily, for the
horn I had bought for the machine
was a source of amusement to all my
friends. It is a shrieking, discordant
thing, but it serves my purpose of
effectually warning children and cy
clists, both of whom I dread des
perately when driving.
We were at the dobr of mycar by
this time, and Mr. Underwood had
deftly assisted me in before I had
time to evade him.
"Hate to have me touch you, don't
you?" he said with the first hit of
sullenness I had seen in him. "Well.
I don't Know as I' blame you! But
I've heard-'you laugh again, that's
something, and please remember
that all hell can't get at you if I
Try This If You
Have Dandruff
There is one sure waythat never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de
stroys it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, or-
Idinary liquid arvon ; apply it at night
wnen retiring; use enough to mois
ten the" scalp and rub.it in gently
with the finger tips.
By morning, most, if not all, of
5'our dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely de
stroy every single sign and trace of
it, no matter how much dandruff
you may have." f
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times
better. - ,
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you need, this
simple remedy has never 1 been
known to fail, '

which those who are weak, thin, nerv

is to take a 5-grain tablet of filood-Irot

doubtless due -to the well known . faet .
that Blood-Iron Phosphate quickly

at the same time supplies the iron

Sherman & McConneli Drug Co., or any

take as directed. If at the end of three
weeks you don't feel one hundred per cent
better and aren't in every, way satisfied
you can have your money back for the

WHY THIN BLOOD
MAKES THIN BODIES
Thin, pale, anaemic men and
women are starving their blood.
Thev are simply not supplying t
the blood the oxygen, iron and cell
salts .that the blood jnust have in
order to maintain the health and
Vigor of the bodyi
The red blood cells and the whita
blood cells are constantly warring
in the blood. If you starve the
red blood cells, which vitalize tha
blood and build up the . body, tha
blood becomes thin, and full of ,
white blood cells, and the body
starves until it .becomes thin and
emaciated, weak and sick.
Healthy blood makes the entire"
body healthy. Rich, red blood,
vitalized with oxygen, Iron and the1-cell-salts
that Nature must have to
keep the body well, or make it well
if it is sick,, will renew the strength ;
and restore vigor and vitality.
REOCO, the wonderful discov
ery of Dr. D. L. Reusing, rapidly
increases the, number of red blood
cells, and supplies the oxygen, iron
and cell-salts that make rich, red
blood, vitalized with oxygen and
rich in the plasma and cell-salt
that nourish the cells of the body,
and restore strength and health.
