I D
Servant
Of Pittsburgh
Must Obey Rules
Housekeepers of City Organ
ize and Put Homes on Pie
War Basis Wages Cut,
Hours Set.
Pittsburgh, March 5. Maggie ha3
got to mend her ways. She has
forced a lot of self-made rules on the
"missus" from time to time and got
away with it, but now the "missus'
has made a lot of new rules and
Maggie has got to reform or get a
new job and if she gets smart
ibout it, she is liable to be blacklist
ed by a lot of women in Pittsburgh.
At a recent meeting of the House
keepers' club of Pittsburgh, at the
Hotel Chatham, the members unani
mously agreed upon the new rules
and further agreed to enforce them
rigidly. '
Servants must be on the job at 8
o'clock sharp, and what is more, the
domestic help must stick around, till
5 o'clock In the afternoon.
Hereafter $3 a day will be the sti
pend instead of $3.50, which has pre
vailed during wartimes and up to
now.
Pay Their Carfare.
And Maggie and Bridget and the
scst of the help have got to pay
their own carfare three tickets for
a quarter to and from work.
The laundry has got to be cleaned
up after the washing is done. ,
These are some of the many new
rules that the I housekeepers have
laid down for their servants by the
day. A resolutipn providing for the
changes was passed unanimously at
the meeting. Mrs;. J. Q Heckman,
who presided, called for the vote.
Another thing that Maggie and the
other servants are going to bump up
against is the further furnishing of
laundresses with fur coats. A strong
protest against this preformance was
made at the meeting, and members
agreed to induce their non-member
friends to enforce the rule. Servants
must provide their own coats in the
future.
Band Together.
Some time ago the housekeepers
of Pittsburgh banded themselves
against practices of their domestic
help. The chief kicks then were that
the washerwoman1 wandered into the
laundry whenever they felt like it,
demanded their breakfast "on the
house," and insisted upon playing the.
victrola instead of the washing ma
chine. Some of them wouldn't ride
home in anything less than the fam
ily limousine. Not only that, but they
ordered the car for 4 o'clock,
In order to curb the tryanny. of the
servants the housekeepers created
somewhat of a sensation' among the
help by announcing that they would
hang up the wash themselves. Some
dicL
Times have changed from the war
period. Wark isn't as plentiful as it
used to be and the domestics will
have to forget their haughty airs,
domineering ways and demands for
munition workers' Wages.
Wife Might Put Up With
Officer, But Not Private
Denver, Colo., March 5. The, day
when the "buck", private shone in the
eyes of the fair maiden apparently is
on the wane, or long since passed
into the historical group, if a recent
occurrence at Denver is any indica
tion of the state of affairs today.
Henry B. Taylor of Denver re
cently instituted a suit for divorce
from his wife, Minnie, alleging that
she had "put him out" when he en
listed in the army as a private.
"If you can't be an officer in the
army 1 don't want you around," is
what Taylor alleges his better half
had to say when he informed her 'of
his intentions.
"I could stand an officer around
the house, but I don't necda plain
man or a private," she concluded, ac
cording to Taylor's complaint.
And when Taylor returned from
the offices of the local recruiting
officer he found his trunk standing
in the hall of his home all ready for
removal.

simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through the hair takig

glossy, soft and beautiful.

Minister's Sermon-Dramas
Baptist Pastor Finds
This Medium of Spread
ing the Gospel
Effective.'
Spreading the gospel of righteous
living through the medium of sermon-dramas
is the new idea brought
into Omaha pulpits by the- Rev.
John L. Barton, pastor of the Im
nnjiiuel' Baptist church, Twenty
fourth and Pinkney streets.
The Rev. Mr. Barton started his
new manner of delivering sermons
in drama form seven years ago,
while pastor of the First Baptist
church at North Platte.
"I knew that the modern congre
gation must he entertained as well
as instructed when it attended
church. How to . make a sermon
entertaining but still keeping it dig
nified and Instructive was the ques
tion. "I remebcred that Christ and Lin
coln had taught through the me
dium of parables and stories. I
thought of this idea, writing ser
mons in story form. Then the happy
thought struck me, why not write
a story, but instead of telling it, put
is in action. Consequently I wrote
'The Man and the Church.' The
little drama had three characters
carrying a plot whose moral I
wanted particularly to leave with
my congregation.
Follows With Another.
"I went to work on the play and
the Sunday morning I was to give
it I must confess I was quite nerv
ous as to just how it would be re
ceived. 1 gave the play, taking the
three parts and acting them. It
must have been successful as my
congregation did not walk out on
me. .
"I followed the first nlnv with an
other more pretentious, 'The Modern
Prodieal. with six characters, xnis
was a modernized "version of the
prodigal son. Then followed 'The
Other Side of the Hill.' 'A Victim
of Circumstances,' and then what I
term my greatest effort, 'A Perse
cuted Church in a Polluted Land.'
"This plav. with. 10 characters, por
trayed the persecution of the Chris
tians during the time ot Jero.
"This effort was very well received
and has proven a favorite."
; Not His Idea.
The Rev. Mr. Barton is now re
vising this drama-sermon and will
make it one of his feature sermon-
dramas.
The - idea of sermon-aramatizing
does not originate wjth the Rev.
Mr. Barton.
"Soon after I started doing this,
I learned that the Rev. M. A. Kemp
ton,' Cambridge, Mass., was doing
the same thing. Recently I heard
Hand
By James J.
I never held much with midwinter
sports, even when you follow them
wrapped up in sweaters and fur
lined coats. When you get past a
certain age skiing and tobaganning
in a temperature just over zendon't
appeal to you as iclyllic.
I can look at the pictures of the
folks at Lake Tlacid or St. Moritz
having a good time in snow drifts
six feet deep and never sour my dis
position with the vice of envy. In
fact, one of the best things I know
about winter is an open fire with
plenty of logs on it and no cracks in
the windows to let the biting, bitter
blizzard in.
So when my ho.s told me about a
wonderful way he'd found to get
exercise in winter I fell for it. He
said the name cf it was hand ball,
and that you played it at an Athletic
club till you got into a lather of
prespiration. He . emphasized the
"prespiration" part of it.
"You never get a sweat in win
ter," he said, "unless you take some
srood. snaDDv exercise. Your blood
gets sluggish, and your liver goesH
bad, and you can t do your work.
I've been noticing your work lately
You need exercise.
lie made an appointment with me
to meet him at the Athletic club the
next afternoon at 4,
"You'll feel line after your sweat
and cold shower," he said. "It's
the best thing that ever happened to
you."
1 was all enthusiasm. I was there
on the dot. He was in the lockci
room, divesting himself of his street
clothing, and putting on a pair of
trunks, stockings and sneakers.
It wasn't any too warm in the
locker room and I shuddered at his
costume.
"i guess I'll play in my regular
clothes, if you don't mind," I said.
"I used to have chilblains when I
was a kid and I don't like to get
too cold."
"Oh forget that," he said. "I've
got a pair of trunks for you. Put
them on. You'll soon be sweating
like a horse."
There was nothing to do but put
them on, so I did it. I shivered as
I followed him upstairs, hoping de
voutly that it would be warmer in
the hand ball ccurt than it was in
the locker room.
"Where is the court?" I asked,
after vc had climbed three flights
of stairs.
"Right out here," he replied, open
ing a door.
1 was nearly knocked down by the
chill blast that !-wept in.
"But this is the roof," I protested,
looking out at a snow hank, the
upper edges of which were being
rapidly wh'sked ;?wav by the gale.
"I know it," he returned. "This

one pThis sermon-dramas and the
effect on me was wonderful. Every
time he gives one of his plays his
church is packed."
The Rev. Mr. Barton emphasizes
the fact tnat his sermon-dramas are
not "shows.", He uses no costumes
or scenery. As he gives them only
at evening services and but once a
month he uses only a battery of
lights. Each drama is written in
four scenes.
"The sermon-drama is not the
primary endeavor with me1. While I
do not believe in the old 'firstly,
secondly and thirdly' methods of
sermonizing, I do 'believe in a good
old fashioned straight-from-the-shoulder
sermon and I deliver them
three times each month. The fourth
Sunday I usually give one of my
sermon-dramas and find that the con
trast is gratifying. I might say at
tendance is better than on other eve
nings." . ' '
Has 20 Memorized.
The Rev. Mr. Barton now has 20
sermon-dramas' memorized, each his
own composition.; ' .
' During the prohibition fight in
Nebraska Rev; Mr. Barton delivered
a sermon-drama, "The Trail of the
Serpent," in many Nebraska towns.
, During the war he was- chaplain
at Camp Cody and served mostly
with the 27th field artillery. There
were many Omaha boys in the outfit.

is where the handball court is."
' ."What, 'outdoors ?''
"Sure outdoors. Do . you think
you could play a strenuous game
like 'hand ball in a turkish bath?" '
I started to go - back, but he
grabbed me and thrust'- me out on
the roof, and into an- open court.
"Shut the door, if you're cold he
said, indicating the narrow passage
through which we had tome. There
won't be any draft then."
"But the whole top of Jhe- thing
is open."
"Oh quit yonr -Whining and play
hand ball." ;
He batted the ball against the
wall of the court. '
"Return; it," he said.
I stood shaking with ague.
"How do you return it?" 1
"Hit it, you simp."
"But I can't hit it. It's on the
floor."
"Never mind. I'll serve it over
again."
He did, and it shot past my head.
,1 walked over, the wind howling
around my bare shanks, and picked
it up.
For an hour I did the same thing.
It was always impossible for me to
return his serve, and I was too stiff
with the cold to run for the ball. .
Meantime he scored 21 three times
and told me he had won the game.
He was in the lather of perspiration
he had spoken of. but I wasn't. I
was sure that all ray blood was
frozen in my veins, and I knew that
my legs were bright blue.
"Now," he said, "we will take the
cold shower."
"Who will take the cold shower?"
"Why, us. of course. It will get
the sweat off us, and keep us from
catching cold."
Maybe the cold shower woufd
have kept mc frcdn takiii cold, but
I never found out. I lined as fast
as my chilled joints would permit
back to the locker room, picked up
my clothes, carried them into the
Turkish bath and put them on.
Today I have got the worst cold
I have ever had, and see no prospect
of curing it. Rut however a cure
may be affected, it will not be
through the medium of hand ball.

San Franci.ico, March 5. What is
a "spirit jag?" .
Although ' a spiritualist lor 27
years, Mrs." C. T. Martin, 215 Shot
well street, says she does not know.
"Jags," to Mrs. Martin, means
"something associated with jazz."
"The spirit wave that is sweeping
the nation's capital," says' Mrs. Mat
tin, "is not exactly a jag. I'd never
thought of it in that way. It makes
people forget their troubles, lif's
them into halcyon realms, hasn't
any bad after effects, and it costs
nothing. You simply drink your fill
of spirit with satisfying results.
"Washington, D. C., isn't the only
city where the people are daily go

San Franciscans Jive by it. This is
the greatest spiritual center in the
world. The spirit wave is sweepirlg
every country. I have letters from
China, Australia, . Brazjl, France
everywhere, and they are on the
same line."
Society women in large numbers,
ministers, educators, business men
and all people who are seeking hap
piness and the solution of problems
find their way to Mrs. Martin's door.

"As far as the soul leaving the

Mrs. Martin, "go on adventures into

without ever suspecting the real cause of their trouble-
They think that they are weak and nervous
as a result of age. worry or overwork or they
think that their disturbed digestion, head
aches, heart palpitation, shortness of breath,
pains across the back, etc. are due to some
serious disease, which is often not the cass
at all their blood has simply thinned out
and become pale, thin and watery and is
starving for iron. This is proven by the fact
that when many of these same women take
organic iron for a while their alarming symp
toms quickly disappear and they become
strong, robust and healthy. You most have
iron to enable your blood to change' the
food yoa eat into living cells and tissue. With'
out iron this change cannot be nude and as
a consequence, nothing you eat does you the
proper amount of good you do not get the
full strength out of it. Women especially need
iron more than men as their indoor life and
the strain they are under, renders them
more anaemic.
It is astonishing bow very few women after
thirty years of age, have sufficient iron in
their blood, and it is almost equally surprising
how many girls are afflicted in the same way.
Lack of iron not only brings on a devitalizing
weakness bat it makes a woman look old very
quickly aa it takes away the youthful fresh
ness from her bps and cheeks and the
sparkle and life from her eyes and even
gives her face a haggard and "drawn" look.

should absorb jpnly nourishment to
sustain the body.
It is the function of the kidneys
to filter impurities from the blood
and cast, them out in the form of
urine, but in many instances the
bowels create more toxins and im
purities than the kidneys can elimi
nate, then the blood uses the skin
pores as the next best means of get
ting rid of these impurities, which
break out all over the skin in the
form of pimples.
The surest way to clear the skin
of these eruptions, says a noted au
thority, is to get from any pharmacy
about four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
hot water each morning before
breakfast for one week. This will
prevent the formation of toxins in
the bowels. It also stimulates the
kidneys to normal activity, thus
coaxing them to filter the blood of
impurities and clearing the skin of
pimples.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with
lithia. Here you- have a pleasant, ef
fervescent drink which usually
makes pimples disappear, cleanses
the blood and is excellent for the
kidneys' as well.

Careless Shampooing
Spoils the Hair
Soap should be ysed very carefully
if you want to keep your hair look
ing its best. Most soaps and pre
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, makes
the hair brittle and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo
(which is pure and greaseless) and
is better than anything else you can
use.
One or two tcaspoonsfu! of Mul
sified will cleanse the hair and scalp
thoroughly. Simply, moisten, the
hair with water and rub it in. It
makes an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, which rinses out easily, re
moving every particle of duit, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it
leaves the scalp soft and the hair
fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy
and easy to manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut
oil shampoo at any pharmacy, it's
very cheap and a few ounces will
supply ever' member of the family
for months. Be sure your druggist
gives you Mulsified.
