Discouraging, wasn't itf
The young woman who owned the
coat sent it to professional cleaner. He
wouldn't touch it. ''No use" he said.
Then the young woman bought cake
of FelS-Naptha and tackled the spots her
self. The Fels-Naptha took them out,
entirely. She is wearing the coat.
This actual occurrence illustrates that
Fels-Naptha will clean anything that is
cleansable. 1t will take out grease spots
from wraps, mems clothes, cloth dresses,
rugs, curtains, draperieS, without iniuring
the fabric in the slightest.
1t does this by loosening the dirt and
diSsolving it into tiny particles that can be
wiped away with wet cloth or sponge.
Little rubbing is necessary.
In all kinds of cleaning, Fels-Naptha
is as superior as it is in washing clothes.
Use only cool OF lukewarm water, never
hot. Follow directions printed on the

Nothing else acts on dirt in the wav

PTOMANIES' VICTIM
NOT YET CONSCIOUS
Mrs. Hoge Eats Bad Meat
and Is Unconscious for
Weekday Die.

AS a result OF utomaine poisoning
from eating tainted beef, Mrs. Hoge has
lain In d comOtose state at her home,
1907 Park road, for the past week, While
her husband has not yet fully recovered
from the effects of eating from the
same roast. Mrs. Hoge was attacked
by what she thought to be indigestion
"A few hours after the evening meal on
Tuesday, and her condition grew stead
ily more serious until she lost conscious
ness on Wednesday morning. after see
ing her husband Frustrated by a similar
attack.
4 peculiar feature OF the case was the
fact that Mr.. HO0e felt no i'll effects
until he started TO his daily work at the
Post OIice. where he Is employed as
clerk. a week ago. A peculiar feeling
in the head was the first symptom, and
later he suffered complete lapse OF
memory, which Tested throughout the
day.

parture, knew nothing Of the visit The

Former Nebraska Senator Regarded as Likely Candidate
for Secretaryshp of the Trcasury-Competent as a
Banker He Does Well in His Own Business

Former Senator Joseph IT, Willard, OF
Nebraska, may be the next Secretary
of the Treasury.
The possibility of the incoming PTesi-
dent going TO the West and selecting a
man for this important position in his
Cabinet has been discussed in political
circles lately, and many shTewd proph-
cts have suUmised that the former Sen
atOT of Mr. BTyan's state may be the
man. 1T is known that Senator Willard
and Mr.. Taft are very close friends
and that the President-elect has always
regarded the financial acumen of the
NebTaskan with great respect. During
the last session of Congress in which
MI NullaTd served, he was chairman OF
the Canal Committee, and il was under
his supervision that the preliminary
measures were drawn up whereby the
United States assumed ownership OF the
canal.
This committee threw the business
management of the canal into the hands
Of Mr.. Taft as Secretary of War, and
the latter was in constant attendance
at its meetings when the perplexing
questions Of management were under
consideration. In this way he came to
know and respect the business ability
Of Senator Willard.
That Mr.. Taft is seriously considering
the appointment of Senator Willard as
Secretary of the Treasury comes from
The Washington times., 1908-11-18

a source which may be regarded as au-
thoritative.
Former Senator Willard is one of the
pioneer bankers Of the West His bank

garded as one Of the sOundest financial
institutions in the country. It has al
ways been a great lender. and never a

Of 1854 and 1880, when Nebraska was in
the throes Of bankruptcy and hundreds
Of settlers We're compelled 10 leave
their homes and trek east TO save their
