THE BEE: JQMAHA, MONDAY, JUNE 7, 1920. HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison's New Phase of Revelations of a Wife The Way Dicky Brought Up "An - Unpleasant Subject." Bess Dean's parting words trou bled hie not at all. I felt that I had come out victor in a situation which might have bred unpleasantness for jT.e. Even the frown to which Dicky treated me as soon as the door .Closed after our visitors failed to disturb me in the least. In fact, it rather elated me, for it showed that his jealous dignity of his own opin ions wnich I had jostled meant far more to him than the undeniable at tractions of Miss Dean in her new fprinii outfit. "For the love of Lulu, Madge!" he exploded as he turned back to me after bowing Miss Dean and Miss llolcombe out -with, all the royal courtesy which he knows so wll liow to use, "Wljat seyou off on that tangent of urging me to have thai girl -pose for an illustration? I wish you'd attend to your own af fairs for a change and nof try to run mine. You embarrassed me horri- biy." A Diplomatic Apology. "But I don't see why, Dicky," I protested, careful, however, to keep myvoice very meek and concilia tory. 1 only wished to fix his de cision irrevocably in his mind, not to irritate him. "Miss Dean is ex tremely pretty, and her costume is certainly " "Granted, all of that!" Dicky re torted testily. "If it were a ques tion of taking her to dinner and the theater I am not sure that I wouldn't jump at the chance, but as a model, that girl hasn't the first qualification. Iler lines aren't right, nor her hands 'nor feet and she'd never learn how to pose she's taught school too long, been too much absolute boss she might try to make her mus cles obey, but she couldn't, she isn't plastic enough. Aside from those two qualifications, either of which is absolutely essential for a model, she's perfectly all right." Dicky's voice was heavy with sar casm. I knew he meant to be per "Every Picture , ' Tells a Story h the kidneys that are at fault. and slows them up; poisons accumulate in the system and many mysterious aches and pains result.

Use Doan's Kidney Pills. They have helped many Omaha Valley Street Erhard Corneer, Prop. Dairy, 3510 Valley St., says : "A number of years ago I had kidney trouble. I know that so much jumping on and off my wagon was the direct cause for the trouble. There seemed to be a constant ache across the small of my back and kidneys and an awful soreness through my hips. My kidneys acted frequently and the secretions were highly colored. A friend told me of Doan's Kidney Pills being so good for this trouble. After I had used two boxes my back and kidneys were strong. That is the kind of a cure that Doan's Kidney Pills gave me." . ( North Thirty-Firt Street Mrs. Ed Reeves, 4411 N. 31st St., says; "I had' kidney trouble and there was a continual aching in my kidneys and through the small of my back. It just seemed as though the pains would never let lip and I could get no rest at night. I also had awful dizzy headaches. A friend advised me to use Doan's Kidney Pills so I took a box and felt much better. I quit taking them for a while' and noticed the trouble coming back so started using them again. This time a couple of boxes sured me, and I have not been bothered since." - Bostirn's Every Druggist fectly crushing," and I tried to keep my secret joy out of my face and to look properly impressed. "I'm awfully sorry, Dicky," I said meekly. "But' really I didn't mean to annoy you. It all started as the merest jest. I admired her costume immensely and told her so. She laughingly said she would like to have -Friend Husband's artistic ap proval, andJold her that you would probably want to put her on a cover." "And then she made an altitude record, of course," my husband re plied with a touch of arrogant com placence in lliyvoice which I resent ed, but which I knew was justified by his experience. "Wish i had a five spot for every girl who has asked to go on one of my magazine covers. We'd circle the world in luxury the rest of our days, old girl." Dicky Reminisces. The words were a reminder of the thing which sets Dicky apart from most husbands, save those who are fellow artists, musicians or actors, andmakes unusually difficult the wifely task of managing or holding him the fact that ciVintless silly women, of all degrees of pulchritude. and purse, besiege him by letter andname "Pathfinder?"

My common sense tells me to share Rory O'More's philosophy that "there is safety in numbers." It. reminds me that Dicky is far less apt to fall a victim to the charms of some pretty girl than would a man who rarely saw one, but when did a young woman ever have common sense where the affections of her husband are concerned? She may pretend to"" have, may conceal her jealousy so admirably that no one ever guesses it, but ii is deep in- her being, a very part or her, ready to spring itjto flame at the striking of a match.

Frager, 1410 Ohio St.,' says: fit has been a couple of years since I have had to use Doan's kidney Pills. I used them at that time for a disor dered condition of my kidney's. My kidneys were weak and there was a heavy dull nagging ache just over my kidneys. At times I would feel worn out. But I am glad to say it was not long after I com menced the use of Doan's Kidney Pills that I was feeling much better. My back and kidneys are strong now and , I can honestly give Doan's my recommendation after what they have done for me.

Taro and Take were very much surprised, but they remembered their manners. They drepped on their knees .and, bowed their heads to the floor. 'Where are yaur father and mcthar, and grannie and Bot'Chan?" said all the aunts and cousins. "They are late." "We came back by the boat, , and it stopped at ever so many places," said Taro. "That's why we arc late." Soon their father and mother and grandmother came in. Then Jhere was great laughing and talk 'ng and many polite bows Bot'Chan was pr.tsed from one to another.

You may never have sus pected your kidneys, yet often it's overwork congests the kidneys your neighbor! ) Leavenworth Street C. M. Downing, 2216 Leavenworth St., says: "My first trouble with my kidneys was caused by a strain some ten years ago. I would be so lame i couldn't stoop oyer to pick up anything and the sharp, cut ting pains in my kidneys felt as though someone, had stuck a sharp knife into me. My kidneys would act frequently during the night and the secretions were highly colored. At times it felt as though a heavy weight across my back were pulling mc down. A friend advised me to use Doan's Kidney Pills and a couple boxes relieved me of the trouble." V South Seventeenth Street William Quinn, cooper, 2403 S. 17th St., says: "A few years ago my back was bothered, caused by the bad condition of my kidneys. Pains would catch me in my kidneys and hurt me so that I would have to get down on my knees. There was a feeling as though a heavy weight were across my kidneys and I felt fagged and worn out. I read where someone had told of what Doan's Kidney Pills had done for them so I used some. In a few days I could see they were helping me and I kept on using them and was cured. I have had no trouble since and believe Doan's are the finest and surest kidney remedy one can take." b m aw FITCH PEBKIN5 ' rJj to eat until it was time to go home. It too'k the Twins a long time to get to sleep that night. Just as she was cuddling down un der her warm, soft mats, Take popped her head out once rfxjre and looked across the room to "Taro's bed. "Taro!" she whispered. Taro stuck his head out, too. She could see him by the soft light of the candle in the hall paper lamp beside his bed. v "Don't you think it's about a week since morning?" she said. "So manv nice things have happened today!" "There never could be a nicer day han this," said Taro. "What was the nicest of all?" Take asked. "I'll tell vou what I liked the best if you'll tell me." Then Taro told which part of the day he liked the best, and Take told which she liked the best. But I'm not going to tell whether they said the little horse, or the tiny garden, or the cherry trees, or the animals, or he boat ride or the party. You can just guess for yourself. Tomorrow Japanese Twins and the Colored Sand. "Love's Harvest," a comedy-drama starring Shirley Mason, is the Em press photoplay feature the first part of this week. It is the story of a 15-year-old girl whose father in a dying condition gave her away to a man she never had seen. The photoplay is from the successful novel, "His Harvest," by Pearl Doles Bell. Pathe Weekly and a comedy, "Pardon Me," are other features of the movie bill. The Muse theater showed "Burn ing Daylight" yesterday. Today the bill is "The Garter Girl," starring Corinne Griffith, and is all about a vaudeville dancer who kicked her garter into the audience every night as a featurc-of her act. 'A TO Buffalo, N. Y. M Up? Pills, In spi.tc of hof oppressive weather yesterday, Omaha's motion picture theaters drew capacity houses all day. Excellent programs and a wide range 01 subjects were onerea. ntnei Clayton appears in light comedy at the Rialto, Mitchell Lewis in a Jack London story at the Moon, "Jiggs" and Emma Dunn share honors at the Sun, Constance Talmadee stars j in bright farce comedy at the Strand, Shirley Mason is the attraction at the Empress and Eugene O'Brien at the Orpheum. Mitchell Lewis as '"Burning Day light" st the Moon will please lov ers of Jack London's stories. With his wide, humorous mouth and rugged features, he is a welcome re lief from near-handsome heroes. Helen Ferguson as Dora, who loves him through all his escapades, fur nishes excellent support, and appar ently is willing to remain m the background anil not try 'for stellar honors herself. William V. Mong does some good work as "Neces sity," the lawyer, so-called "because he knows no law." "The Syncopated Septette" furn ished some novelty music, particu larly "The Livery Stable Blues." which made a great hit with Moon audiences yesterday. Anna Mae Bell, the girl with the act, is an airy, fairy, lightsome dancer and is good to look upon. Although Emma Dunn is billed as the star in "Old Lady 31" at the Sun, dramatic honors, surely, should go to Henry Harmon who plays Laptain Abe Kose. The picture should make a great appeal to mid dle aged or elderly folks. The first par( is comparatively uninteresting but after Captain Rose becomes "Old Lady 31" in the old ladies' home, there is no lack of humorous incident. -Vivid picturizations are given of his three weeks in "a sugar coated feminine hell." "Jiggs and the 400" comes up to the standard of the first "Jiggs" pic ture, and an animated cartoon of "Mutt and Jeff" is a; comic delight. "A Lady in Love" is character ized by the delightful interpretation which Ethel Clayton gives as the "lady." Miss Clayton is at her best in a role which permits her to wear smart gowns and she does this with inimitable grace in this picture. Complications ensue for her when as a young girl in love she elopes from school and marries a scoun drel who already has a wife and child. She, however, believes her marriage to be legal, and when she finally does meet the man she wants to marry, Miss Clayton as Barbara Martin attempts to obtain a divorce secretly through the help of her guardian. Her guardian calls in his lawyer on the case, .who turns out to be the man she wants to marry. Harrison Ford appears opposite. It is a thoroughly feminine play. A sutishine comedy in which a monkey figures in the plot adds to the Rialto program. Colored film to indicate blushes was anunusual feature of the Con stance Talmadge picture, "The Love Expert," at the Strand. The effect made Strand audiences roar last night, as did also the closeup of the heaving breast of John Halliday, the love partner of Constance who scores again in this new comedy. Some share of the delightful woric ing out of the plot of the play must be given to Arnold Lucy, who portrays-the part of "Bab's" father. The scene where he places an elderly woman whonS he loathes in. a com- I'M THE GUY!. I'M THE GUY who never claims your friendship except when he has a favor to ask. Sometimes I don't even bother to speak to you for weeks, but when there's something you can do for me I begin calling you "old man" and pretending to be your greatest ad mirer until I've kidded you into do ing me the turn I was after. Then, when I've got what I wanted out of you, I drop you again. By that time I'm rushing some other easy mark that I can use. All this bunk about true friendship makes me tired. Friends don't meau anything to ,me unless I can make 'em pay dividends. If I can use them for something to my advantage, I'll use 'em. If they're in my way, I'lT step on 'em just as quickly. So don't ever expect me to do any thing for you unless there's some thing bigger you can do for me. And even then don't count on me to do it if you serve me first. (Copyright, 1920, Thompson Feature Service.) T WHY? Do We Hav Nightmares? (Copyright, 1919. by the Wheeler Syn dicate, Inc.) Nightmares are defined by the dictionary as "oppressive condi tions in sleep, accompanied usu ally by bad dreams' and the cause for this is found in the word "oppressive." As a general rule, nightmares are the result of having eaten too heavily thus congesting the stomach and pre venting the flow of blood in the proper manner or some outside influence, such as lack of proper ventilation, too much covering or the like, which oppresses the body and through it the braiit. As children have stomachs which are more easily upset than adults and as they are more prone to eat unwisely, they are distinctly mofe subject to nightmares than are older persons; though full blooded people and particularly those who worry to excess often suffer from this disturbance of their sleep. The word itself is derived from the two Anglo-Saxon words "ncht" meaning , "night" and '"Mara," a ghost or spectre which, according to the old belief, placed itself upon the breast of a sleep ing person and deprived them of the power of speech and motion. The mara was also believed to be the guardian of hidden treasures and the place where it sat was called the nidus or nest, whence we derive the term "mare's nest," a sort of first-cousin of the night mare. ' Tomorrow Why are Old Shoes Thrown After a Wedding? promising position and is thereby compelled to marry her, is a scream; Subtitles of the picture are uniformly bright. 'What would you do if you were of an independent nature, having a limited income and ambitious, and you should fall in love with and marry a young woman of wealth? A situation of this kind rs admirably worked out in the Selznick feature film which -is offered this week at the Orpheum in connection with standard vaudeville acts. ' "His Wife's Money" is the title of this film, which holds the attendant's interest from first to last. Eugene O'Brien, as Richard Flint, a young engineer, who has gone to the Adi rondacks for a rest, is the star, with Zena Keefe, as, Marion Phillips, sharing first honors. Flint rescues Marion as she is drifting toward a waterfall which serves as the locale for "love to find a way." The young engineer has misgivings as to whether his station in life and Marion's wealth would bring marital happiness, but Marion promises to live within her lover's income and so they are married. James Catdwell, trustee of Marion's estate, disap pointed because he could not win the girl for himself, endeavors to cause trouble. Flint, who is brave and re sourceful, meets his rival's opposi tion in a manner which is altogether satisfactory to those who like to see the "best man win." The story is well worked out and the photog raphy is worth while. AT THE THEATERS BILLY MONTGOMERY and Minnie Allen carry away the blue ribbon this week at the Orpheum, where they opened yes terday with a repertoire of their own compositions and a lot, of merry qi'ips and antics. As entertainers and merrymakers they combine orig in?lity and versatility. Edwin Burke offers "The Champion," which is a human interest skit of a boy and his mother. The estrangement of the twain is the basis of the story which is carried along in a clever manner until the son is restored and the suspense is relieved by a satisfactory finale. Sam Berk and Juanita Swan re ceived a welcome-to-our-city recep tion, as their ideas of what a vaude ville audience wants in the line of dancing met with expectations. Mr. Berk's Russian style of dancing re ceived particular appreciation. Ed and May Ernie, who, by the way, have a large clientele among vaude ville patrons, offered an interesting act in which Mr. Ernie demon strated that the loss of a leg was not. much of a handicap to him Some of his" one-leg stunts are astonishing. Rouble Sims is a comical "moke" who knows how to make people for get all ahdut the h. c. of 1. and other irritations of the day. Stellar and versatile vaudeville is offered at Empress theater the first half of this week, the four acts be ing of the highest caliber of the cir cuit. "The Six Venetian" Gypsies are the headliners. Theif weird music and song in their gypsy camp is very beautiful, while their interpre tation of the late jazz songs are in teresting. Porter, White & Co. score a success in their dramatic playlet, "The Visitor." Andrus and Miller are sure two nuts, all that they claim to be. The damfv foot work and song of Burns and Lynn was well received. Georges Carpentier came over here to start a war all of his own. He started it in the movies. AMUSEMENTS. TWO SHOWS IN ONE.
