HOW TO EMPLOY OFFICE GIRL
Doctor Deluged by Women Answering
Bee Want Ad.
ADOPTS METHOD OF ELIMINATION
Comes Down to Red-Headed, busi-
nesslike Girl and Paragon OF
Beauty, Deciding on the
Former

Not long ago an Omaha professional man
inserted a want ad in The Bee stating that
he desired an office girl.
The next day he telephoned to have the
ad taken out.
Whats the matter, didn't you get any
results?" he was asked.
Results" he exclaimed, results? There
have already been sixty-eight girls to see
me; l haven't had a chance to eat, to at
tend my practice or do anything else, but
talk to women who want a position. l feel
like an employment bureau"
The account which he CAV of his expert
ences in selecting one girl out of so many
was most amusing and entertaining. When
asked what method of elimination he en-
ployed, he said:
81 went by my office that morning before
breakfast. There were two girls waiting
in the hall. l thought would talk to them
and then get something to eat. Before
they had gone there were eight others wait
ing. I got breakfast after 10 o'clock and
left an office full of them at that. l had
a few necessary requirements. She must
live with her parents, must be single or If
a widow. must have no children. These
conditions weeded out a few. Then the
appearance and talk would decide the fate
of many others. Some said, Il seen your
notice in the paper that decided the mat
ter for them.

CONNELL HITS DAVIS HARD
Health Commissioner Takes Strong
Rap at Eighth Warder.
DEFENDS HIS OWN OFFICIAL WORK
says IL Councilman was as Keen for
City's Interests when Corpora
tIons' Were at stake IL
would he o. X.

II want you to make this statement as
coming directly from me: II DIR. ]. c..
Davis. councilman from the Eighth ward,
would spend as much time saving the city's
finances when some corporation deal is on
hand, especially the street railway COM
hand, instead of finding fault with the
money 1 have spent in a humane manner,
he would save the taxpayers Of Omaha
$1,000 for every 81 ! nave spent unneces-
sarily in treatment Of unfortunates.'
That in brief is the reply of DR.. r. w.
Connell, democratic city health commits
sioner, to the strictufes upon his official
action Of DR.. J. c. Davis, democratic city
councilman from the Eighth ward. But
then the health commissioner does not drop
the subject will those few words; he only
concludes it with them.
While agreeing with DR.. Davis in the
belief that Omaha ought to have a city
hospital for the care of emergency and
police cases, DR.. Connell takes issue with
the councilman on the latter's contention
that the city should not pay out money
for the care of county patients or OF
strangers within the city.

and remained with me all day was the
utter absence of sex consciousness. There
were no smiles of glances or anything de-
noting the presence of men and women.
They were citizens intent on performing
their duty to state and nation.
The per cent of women voting increased
as one went from the slums to Capitol

the city.
More than half the polling places were
In the sitting rooms or parlors of houses.
They were all in houses, not one in a
saloon.
The women of all parties scratched
their tickets for Judge Lindsey. and at a
breakfast given us by the why club"
where there were fifty women, Judge Lind
sey asked that he might come to express
his gratitude to the women who elected

only two did not say they Intended to vote

One Pathetic side TO II.

There was a pathetic side to it, too. one
woman said she was a widow and had three
children to support. She could get no work
and actually needed the position to buy
food. / told her, Madam, the salary |
can pay is very small. not enough for you
and your family to live on. If you were
to come into my office L should have you
on my conscience all the time. Every time
| bought a new hat or a drink, / would
think Of you and the meagre sum you were
TO live on. / can not take you.'
I'm various ways l reduced the possibili-
ties to two. One was a blue-eyed, red
headed girl, who was business to her fin
ger tips. She looked me straight in the
eye, answered my questions as fast as /
could ask them, never hesitated when l
asked her age, told me why she wanted
to work and impressed me all the way
through as a born business woman.
THE other was one of the most beautiful
girls l have ever seen in Omaha. She was
quiet, refined, self-contained, intelligent.
She said the salary was of no consequence
she did not have to work. she wanted a
place simply because she was tired of
staying at home and doing nothing. She
was handsomely dressed, neat, trim and
good to look upon. l could not help think
ing that the office would be an attractive
place with such a woman around. She said
she was a good housekeeper, hated dust
and dirt and was sure she could please me.
l could not decide between them. My
judgment said to take the business girl
and let the pretty one alone, but my temp
tation to engage the latter was almost toe
strong to resist. I finally decided to sleep
over It and make up my mind in the morn
ing"
''What did you decide the morning after
II took the red-headed one" he replied.

Fertilizers for Summer and Fall Top
Dressing and Seeding-Down.

Up-to. date farmers are agreed that ia
many cases better results are obtained
on meadows from fertilizers which are
applied in the summer or early fall.
This is true both MS to top'dressing and
seeding down.
We wish to call the attention OF the
farmers of Vermont to the fact that we
can furnish formulas for mixing fertil-
izers especially adapted to top dressing
and seeding down grass land. These
formulas have not only been approved
by the Vermont Experiment Station,
but have been used with excellent re-
suits by great many farmers in Yer
mont and have proved thoroughly re-
liable. We can also furnish the mater
als for mixing fertilizers in accordance
with these formulas. We should be
pleased TO send the formulas together
with full directions for mixing, cost of
materials, etc, TO any one who viii
write us, mentioning this paper. Ad-

When the Almanac Originated.

The origin of the word almanac Is
derived from the Arabic words al and
manah-to count-and thus aptly APP
plies to the measurement OF time. Al
manacs In ancient days were employ
ed by the Alexandrlan Greeks, but 1t Is
uncertain when they were actually In
troduced into Europe.
In 1850 A. d. solomon Jarchus pub
llshed an almanac, but the first print
ed one was brought out In Vienna In
l457 by the great astronomer Purbach
The most celebrated almanac maker
was the dabbler In magic, Nostrada'
mus, and since his time almanacs with
predictions have been In vogue, and
their weather lore and pictorial proph-
ecies have invariably appealed to a
large number of people who are apt to
put answering belief In the cryptic
remarks of ZadlSiel and Old Moore.

Are You Classical

You must be classical this season to
the best of your ability and figure
Peplums, draped bodIces, walls Of Troy
and Greek key trimming, tight clinging
sleeves coming well down over the
hand, elaborate tunlcs often edged with
deep silk fringe or again with Greek
designs In gold or silver embroidery
are some of the fancles of the hour.
To be classical without judgment Is
fatal. This style Is only appropriate to
certain types of women and Is ugly,
even grotesque, on short and stout per-
sons.
II should also be confined TO certain
materials and times OF wearing. Long,
loose flowing draperies are wonderful
ly becoming in house, evening or tea
gowns, but are utterly out Of place for
heavy cloths and for morning wear.
Many OF the new silks, however, are
being shown with tunic drapery skill
fully modified to sitter and more con-
ventional lines for street wear.

PENNSYLVANIA GRANGE.
A Committee Visits Washington TO Sc

In accordance with the instructions
from the last state grange commit
tee consisting OF State Master Hili'
state Lecturer Dorset and others went
to Washington last month for the pur-
pose OF laying before the members OF
congress and department officials the
desires OF the Pennsylvania state
grange with reference 10 legislation
for better protection OF the dairy IN
terests. The department OF agrlcui'
ture Of Pennsylvania was also repre-
scented by committee. They had a
spirited and interesting hearing for an
hour and n half before the house com
mittee on agriculture, after which they
waited on Senator's Knox and Penrose,
both of whom assured the committee
of their willingness and desire to do
what they could TO protect the interests
of legitimate dairying Later they call
cd upon Secretary OF Agriculture VIII
son. Secretary OF Treasury Cortelyou,
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue
Capers and DR.. Wiley, chief chemist
From these gentlemen they secured
much valuable information. One OF the
members Of the committee exhibited 10
the internal revenue officials a number
OF samples OF butter as yellow as June
butter but which had paid but one
fourth Of cent taxes. These officials
alluded to the difficulties they expe
rience In collecting the proper amount
OF taxes and in suppresslng violations
OF the law. The fact was unearthed
that the government does not have rev
enue collectors stationed at the licensed
oleo manufactures, This matter was
also brought to the attention of the
congressman, and 1t Is not Improbable
that congress viii take steps to RENE
dy this defect in the laws.
