Juanita Sage, fresh from sunny California, pretty, brown-eyed, and a hint of California's roses (natural) in her checks, arrived at the police station yesterday in search of her husband, W. O. Sage, who. she says, deserted her more than two years ago, taking with him thtir 3-vear-old child. Juanita and her relatives live at Glcnwood, la., where the Sages were married. They lived there some time and then they came to Omaha. W. O. worked in Omaha, but his wage was not large and, in spite of the small baby, Juanita helped out by working downtown. Finally the young mother's health failed and she was forced to go to relatives in California to recuperate. She said, with tears streaming from her eyes, that her husband for a time was faithful in writing, hut finally grew negligent and didn t write at all.

Conwell has delivered his lecture, "Acres of Diamonds," more than five thousand time's and in book form it has been widely read. It is a wonderful story with a pointed moral and, delivered under the force of his magnetic personality, leaves a last ing impression on the hearer. A man in the state of Pennsylvania became infatuated with dia monds and obsessed with a desire for their possession. Mortgaging his farm, he. went to South Africa in quest of a diamond mine. Failing in his search, after innumerable hardships, he was forced to work, his way home. Upon his arrival he was amazed at receiving an offer of a. fabulous amount of money for his mortgaged fari. A thick vein of coal black diamonds had been discovered on his farm and that which he had traveled so far to find had all the time been right under his feet, if he had but dug for it. There are many Help Yourself Club members like the chap in Dr. Conwell's lecture. What a great opportunity right here at home for those who "dig in." Unlike the Pennsylvanian, no one is coming to offer them the equivalent of one of the awards with a value running into the thousands of dollars, but, like him, they can "dig in" and secure one. Some members have made a good start, but Well, let's forget how foolish we have been. With the good start we made, there is still ample opportunity to get back into line for an award if we but determine to do our utmost. With the 50,000 Extra Vote Offer still in effect, we can run up a big score of votes before the close of the campaign and resume the place we should have held. - Your "Acres of -Diamonds" are right at your door if you will but "dig in." " Great is the opportunity greatest for those who realize that awards worth thousands of dollars are worth the hard work. Effort will get Bee subscriptions. Bee subscriptions will get votes. Vote3 will get Help .Yourself Club Awards. Let's "dig in." BO WEN'S 500 :VJ Guaranteed Mattresses Will Rp Plnrnrl on id'-.
