THE BEE; OMAHA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1920
, . QPOTTED" is a word which
used to have a place in the
vocabulary of mining pros
pectors in the northwestern part of
the United States' says an eastern
paper, commuting on the Chicago
Opera company which appeared in
New York some days ago, and in
Om-a late last October. "They
called a law-.'ity "spotted" in which
gold, or whatever the metal was
they were after, lay not in a con
sistent streak through the ground,
but in irregular spots. The word, in
the same meaning, just describes the
performances which the Chicago
Opera company are giving in the
course of its annual season at the
Lexington theater. They are sure
to give pleasure at some moment
and sure to cause disappointment at
another; and nobody can tell exact
ly where to dig for a find." .
Referring to Verdi's "Traviata"
with Mme. Galli-Curci as the so
prano, Mr. Dolci as the tenor, and
Mr. Maguenat as baritone, we read:
"A more unpromising first act than
the visitors set forth can scarcely
be imagined, unless one were to
think of those days when companies
used to organize here overnight with
a repertory of "Trovatore" and
"Carmen" and make a surprise at
tack upon some town of the north
ern circuit.
Comments on "Raisa's work are
much more complimentary. Raisa
sang the title role in "Aida" in
Omaha.
"Fortunate were those who took a
risk on 'Norma,' the bill of the
night of February 3, when Mmes.
Raisa and Sharlow were the princi
pal singing women and Messrs.
Dolci and Lazzari the principal
singing men, and when Mr. Mari
mtzzi was in charge of the music.
That was putting the spade into the
ground in one of the most reward
ing spots. The presentation- re
stored the faded glory of the com
poser Bellini, and raised the acclaim
of Miss Raisa to a new level. It
provoked those listeners who have
memories' of the historic dramatic
sopranos to come out with their
comparisons, and it awoke in those
whose experience with opera is re
cent a respect for the things which
their fathers and grandfathers ap
plauded." Fine Arts Lecture.
The subject of the lecture by Dud
ley Crafts Watson before the Oma

Suffrage Work of
Year Reviewed
In Chicago
At the Friday session of the Na
tional American Woman Suffrage
association the work of all the offi
cers and departments was summed
up in the report of Mrs. Frank J.
Shuler, corresponding secretary and
chairman of campaigns and surveys.
The report included the Leslie
Woman Suffrage commission, whose
bureau of education, the world's
largest propaganda bureau run by
women, provides the national pub
licity department, the daily news
paper services, the weekly magazine
called the Woman Citizen, and a
data department; the National Suf
frage Publishing comDanv: the Wo
men's Overseas hospitals, founded
and maintained by the association,
whose staff received French and
English decorations; the League of
Women Voters, which is launching
forth on a big program of reform
legislation; citizenship work,
schools, books and outlines of
study.
Of chief interest was the section
devoted to the federal suffrage
amendment with the first revelation
of the strategy employed by the
national association to secure rati
fication by the states. "In some
states even the women think rati
fication was easily won because they
do not know the efforts put forth
from the national office," declared
Mrs. Shuler. And she went on to
tell of the floods of letters and tele
grams, and the power of influence
directed upon those high in political
authority and the subsequent weak
ening of governors who had been
saying they would not call special
sessions "because the women of my
state have suffrage and it will not
help us, the cost of a special session
is too great, ill-advised legislation
might beconsidered."
She reviewed some of the fea
tures of the ratification campaign.
"There was a race between Illinois
and Wisconsin for the first place on
the ratification list," she said, "Wis
consin putting a special messenger
on the train to insure its certificate
being the first to reach the secretary
of state and being further helped in
holding first place by- the technical
error in the office of the United
States secretary of state which
forced Illinois to ratify a second
time. Illinois at least is distinctive
in being the only state to twice
ratify the amendment." She told of
the legislators who paid their own
expenses to their special sessions.
New Hampshire, where the ratifica
tion committee was composed en
tirely of men, California where the
pen used was presented to the new
League of Women Voters, Nebras
ka and Pennsylvania where the pres
idents of the state suffrage organiza
tions were asked to address the 1-g-.
islatures, Minnesota which ratified
in half-an-hour, Oregon where the
special session was denied on the
ground of cost until the women an
nounced if necessary they would
raise a fund of $6,000 to pay the ex
pense, Indiana where a petition of
86,000 names and a two-thirds
pledge of the legislature to consider!
no other matters were required to
get the session. I
In addition to the federal amend
ment, she named the following oth
er victories of the year: The presi
dential suffrage gains in Missouri,
Tennessee and Iowa; the grant of
municipal suffrage in Orlando, one
of the 16 towns in 10 Florida coun
ties to enfranchise its women: the
.extension of municipal suffrage to
trie women in the democratic prim
aries in Atlanta, Ga.; the upholding
of the constitutionality of the presi
dential and municipal suffrage laws
in Nebraska, and the decision by the
Nebraska attorney general that the
women have the right to vote for
delegates to the national political
party conventions; the passage of a !
woman watchers' bill in the Ohio
legislature; the favorable decision of
Texas supreme court on the con
stitutionality of the state primary
suffrage bill.
One in every 60 women in New
York City is a wage-earner, while
in Charleston. S. C, the percentage
is one in 100.

Caring For a Red Nose.
The nose calls for the most care
ful treatment. The importance of
caring for a red nose every woman
knows, if she is the least bit inter
ested in being beautiful.
Being out of doors will help to
cure a red nose; taking plenty of
hot and cold baths, brisk walks,
motor rides and also avoiding high
tight collars and food that doesn't
agree with you.
This ointment should be applied
night and morning to the red nose:
Powdered sulphur, one dram; pow
dered starch, two and one-half
drams; ointment of zinc oxide, one
and' one-half ounces; oil of rose,
three drops.
If you have big freckles and
brown spots use this lotion: Salicy
clic acid, 60 grains; bay rum, four
ounces.
If this lotion makes the face
rough, use glycerin or starch.
if the nose is unsightly because of
blackheads, wash the face thorough
ly at night, using hot water, and
then apply this mixture: Pure
brandy, two ounces; cologne, one
ounce; liquor of potass, one-half
ounce.
Often accidents which result in
Mack eyes cause worry, when a
simple remedy for black eyes would
be appreciated. Immediately after

DOWN IN BED
AND SO WEAK
Lady Suffered Terribly for
Eight Weeks but Her Case
Showed Wonderful Im
provement After Tak
ing Cardui.
Johnson City, Tenn. Mrs. M. R.
Scott, living near this town, states:
"About three years ago I was down
in bed . . . terrible and so weak
I couldn't bear the sight of food.
This condition continued for about
eight weeks . . I thought I was
going to die, and knew I must get
something to do me some good. I
had heard all my life of Cardui and
the good results obtained from its
use . So I decided to try it
After about a half bottle of Car
dui my appetite improved, then I
was less nervous. I kept it up until
I had taken five bottles and such
an improvement! I gained flesh and
now am the picture of health, due,
I believe, solely to the use of Car
dui. I am the mother of ten chil
dren and feel well and strong."
Cardui is a mild, medicinal tonic
for women. It has stood the most
severe of all tests the test of time,
having been in use for over forty
years. It is composed of rurelv
vegetable ingredients, which have
been found to help build up the vi
tality, tone up the nerves and
strengthen the womanly constitu
tion. "
