Ousting of Married
Women Is Advocated
Discharge of all married women
holding jobs in offices of the city
hall, court house and private con
cerns wis advocated by Dr. Harry
Poster at the meeting of the Public
Welfare board Tuesday night. The
rest of the board weakly assented to
the proposition, though Father Flana
gan opined that "it will meet with
much opposition." The move is ad
vocated to give employment to more
men, heads of families.
The only exceptions which Dr.

ried women would be those whose
husbands are incapacitated.
It is said there are at least
dozen married women employed in
offices in both the city hall and the
court house.

Unlimited Government Funds
May Be Made Available,
War Finance Corporation
Director Says.
Indianapolis, Nov. 30. Solution of
the needs of farmers in the corn belt
for financial assistance rests with
tail bankers and farmers co-operating
with the state committee of the
government's war finance corpora
tion, Eugene C Meyer, jr., manag
ing director of the corporation, de
clared yesterday, in addressing a
meeting of Indiana farmers and
hankers.
Unlimited government funds may
be made available for the credit of
the farmers, he said, while Governor
McCray of Indiana, chairman of the
corporation's advisory comnvttee on
the needs of the corn belt farmers,
estimated a minimum pf $200,000,
000 would be required to finance
farmers in holdine their surplus corn
on the farms for an orderly market
ing of this year s bumper crop.
The advisory committee directed
Governor McCray to call a meeting
of governors at Chicago Friday io
arrange for other state-wide gather
ings of bankers and farmers. States
where these meetings are planned in
clude Iowa, Nebraska and South
Dnkota.
Mr. Mever declared there was no
J delay in providing the government
funds in bnnks for the farm loans
after a bank had qualified. 'through
the corporation's state committees as
to collateral and character. Ad
vances of $1,500,000 to $2,000,000
daily are being made by the corpor
at'oi. he said.
Mr. Meyer .emphasized that the
rra"tice of the corporation permitted
banks to obtain the government
monev for one year or longer, which
he said would avoid problem arising
from 60-day or other sho't time
loans.
"One thing I want the bankers tD
see," he said, "is that excessive inter
est rates are brought down for the
farmer. Eight and 10 per cent is
too high."

A Washington newspaper Ust
night startled the natives and arms
conference delegates by printing that
astonishing headline clear across the
top of its evening edition, but with
this added line:
"By mistake."
It happened at a reception given
by The Netherlands delegates to the
conference last night to newspaper
men. Mr. Bryan was there in his
capacity of a reporter. Some one
told a waiter when Br. Bryan wasn't
looking, "The fat man's glass is
empty." ,It was an innocent looking
water glass and gin looks like wa
ter. While Mr. Bryan was looking
elsewhere the waiter filled it with
gin cocktail, permissible under the
law on the premises of a foreign en
voy. Presently Mr. Bryan was
thristy and he took a swig.
Wow I Dashed to the floor went
the liquor, glass and all.
Bryan did not lose his temper. He
knew he had been tricked, and en
joyed the laughter of his "weaker
brethren."

BIG EATERS GET
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take Salts at first si an- of
Bladder irritation or
Backache.
The American men and women
must guard constantly against Kid
ney trouble, because we eat too
much and all our food is rich. Our
blood is filled with uric acid which
the kidneys strive to, filter out; they
weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and the result is kidney, trouble,
bladder weakness and a general de
cline in health. ;..
When your kidneys" feel like
lumps of lead; your back hurts or
the urine is cloudy, lull ot seqiment,
or you are obliged to seek relief two
or three times during the night; if
you suffer with sick headache or
dizzv. nervous spells, acid stomach,
or you have rheumatism when the
weather is bad, get from your phar
macist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass
ot water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys will then act
fin"e. This- famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush
and stimulate clogged kidneys; to
neutralize the acids in the urine so
it no longer is a source of irritation,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot
injure, makes a delightful efferves
cent lithia-water beverage, and be
longs in every home, because no
body can make a mistake. by having
a- good kidney flushing any time.

"I didn't hope for anything more
than a little temporary benefit from
Tanlac, and I certainly was sur
prised and gratified when it put me
on my feet feeling fine again," said
R. H. Beatty, 1845 Q street, Lin
coln, Neb. '
"It surely was remarkable the
way Tanlac put my stomach in
first-class order. For years I had
suffered from indigestion after every
meaf, but 'everything I ate agrees
with me now. -
"I used to have touches of rheu
matism, too, that bothered me a
good , deal, but I haven't had a
twinge now in some time and I be
lieve it has gone for good. .Among
other things Tanlac did for me is
that this year, for the first time
since I was a boy, I have escaped
an attack of hay fever. I attribute
this to the fact that Tanlac has built
me up so that I was able to resist
my old complaint. Tanlac made
me gain 20 pounds, too, and I feel
good clean to my fingertips."
Tanlac is sold in Omaha by the
Sherman & ' McConnell Drug Co.

Illinois Central System Points to Its
Leadership in Passenger Service
' The existence of a railway system is justified by its ability to serve the public
with transportation. The measure of its service is the measure of its worth. As
one example of its high standing, the Illinois Central System invites the attention
of the public to those things which are indicative of its capacity for efficient pas
senger transportation service. ' , '
Much depends upon personnel.'' As an organization the Illinois Central Sys
tem' is composed of a body of 60,000 faithful and efficient workers. , Its officers
have advanced through the ranks of the service, thus acquiring the practical
experience for intelligent supervision. The efforts of the organization are con
centrated on making the Illinois Central System, in point of service, the out
standing railway System in ,the United States; and that means 'in the world, for
American railroads have long held, and continue to hold, the leadership of the
world in efficient transportation service.
Much depends upon equipment. Up-to-date and well -.maintained equip
ment is the first essential to passenger service of the high type which the Illinois
Central System strives to give at all times. For years the Illinois Central System
has been a leader among the railway systems in adding to its equipment, keep-
ing its equioment well maintained and developing its roadway facilities. ,
The Illinois Central System is a leader in the amount of steel passenger
equipment in us?. Sixty per cent of th 3 passenger cars on the Illinois Central
System are of all-steel or steel-underframe construction. Steel cars are expen
sive, but they are a generally recognized factor for the safety .and comfort of
passengers. : S f ' Y
The latest figures available show the percentage of all - steel and steel
underframe passenger cars in service on the railroads of the country as a whole
to be less than 39 per cent.' : - - -
The passenger on the Illinois Central System is. assured of a safe, comfort
able trip in a car of good construction and modern convenience, over a smooth
riding track of heavy rail and ties, fully ballasted and well maintained, hauled
by a locomotive of sufficient power and in such a condition of maintenance as to
give every reasonable assurance of scheduled movement.
For the most part, each locomotive is regularly assigned to the same engi
neer, who takes a personal pride in its condition. This is believed to be one of
the reasons for the small number of engine failures on the Illinois Central Sys
tem, a record which is outstanding among the railroads of the country.
The regularity with which Illinois Central System passenger trains main
tain their schedules indicates the high order of our passenger service. The per
centage of passenger trains maintaining schedule, by months, for 1920 and the
current year to .November 1 follows:

The patrons of the Illinois Central System find courteous and sympathetic
attention in every department. Employes take great pride in our reputation
for courtesy.
Service is now the only basis of competition among the railroads. Since
v rates are standardized, the Illinois Central System cannot offer rate bargains
to command patronage, but it can offer and it is constantly developing the
organization, equipment and facilities for unusual sen-ice.
Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.
