NEBRASKA wOmen ever bring glory to their state, according to Airs, Myrtle Mason, ' club editor, who is covering tJ0t Chicago convention for The Bee. As well as being leaders in matters of political Import, they are very frequently reflected in the "glass of fashion." At the ratification banquet of the Victory Suffrage convention in Chicago, Saturday evening, at the Congress hotel, were seen many Omaha women. 1 Dr. Jennie Callfas wore a i Parisian dinner gown of black net over turquoise blue and eittbroidered in beads of blue.

Alice blue char mouse draped the gown of black worn by MrsVLulah Andrews.,- Mrs. James Richardson departed from the somber tone and wore an attractive dinner dress of shell pink, Sand colored taffeta was chosen by Mrs. F. A. Harrison; To brighten a costume of flesh colored georgette, Mrs. H. v. Sumney wore a lavaliere of sapphires and diamonds. Mrs. V. E.

Elderly People Have A Daily Health Problem Stomach muscles and digestive organs - slow to act as age advances ; ' , MOST people find the years slipping by without real izing it, until suddenly confronted with the fact that they can no longer digest everything they would like to eat. It then becomes their daily task to avoid . what they know to be chronic con stipation. When exercise and light diet fail it will be necessary to resort to -artificial means. Strong physics and cathartics, however, are not advisable for elderly people. They t act too powerfully and a feeling of ' weakness results. What is needed is a laxative containing effective but mild properties. This is best found in Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin which is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin. It . acts gently and without griping, and used a few days will train the digestive organs to do their work naturally' again without other aid. Dr. CaldweU'1 Syrup Pepsin has been on the market since 1892 and was the private formula of Dr.W. B. Caldwell, who is himself past 80 years of age and still active in his profession. It can be bought at any drug store and one bottle ' is enough to last even a large family many months. It is a trustworthy preparation. In spite of the fact that Dr. CaU well's Syrup Pepsin is the largest selling liquid laxative in the world, there being over 6 million bottle; sold each year, many who need its benefits have not yet used it. If you have not, send your name and address for a free trial bottle to, Dr. W. B. CaUu-ell, 511 -.. Washington St., .Moiuicelfo, Illinois.

This simple treatment is unfailing and no pain or inconvenience attends its use, but to avoid disappointment be certain you get genuine delatone. Cocoanut Oil Makes A Splendid Shampoo If. you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with. Most soaps arid prepared sham poos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsi fied cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure and entirely greaseless), is much better than anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten' your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abund ance of rich, creamy lather and cleanses the hair and scalp thor oughly. The lather -rinses out eas ily and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff a,nd excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. ( You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo at most any drug store. It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last everyone in the family for months. MR.
