For mans taste i'll women changes
and the feminine charms that at.
tracted him in his boyhood no more
appeal to him in his maturity than
do the pink ice cream and chocolate
soda water for which his soul used
to hunger in his youth. On the con.
trary, they both give him that same
sick, sinking feeling OF having had
enough and too much.
There are no more pitiful tragedies
in the world, son, than those in which
high-minded, generous-hearted, ro-
mantle boys fall victims to their de-
lusions about being in love.
For, look you! You are not the
first lad who ever thought himself
in love; and the mere fact that you
are in love with a woman five years
older than yourself proves your case
typical. ~,
Practically every boy that ever
lived has been through the same ex-
perience, for the minute youth finds
out that his pulses can hutter, and
gets to the place where he can dis
tinguish between pretty woman and
an old one, he diagnoses his case as
one of undying affection.
Sometimes there is one to stretch
out saving hand and keep him from
committing suicide by marrying while
he is under this hallucination, and he
lays upon shoulders too weak and
young to bear it the heavy load Of
matrimony. If he is poor, by that
act he seals his doom. for he can
never get ahead with family to sup
port, and you will find him, except in
rare cases, an old, WORKOUT, broken
down man at As.
The boy who marries also takes
l00-to-l shot at domestic happiness,
because he risks his own development.
The woman he marries may be good
enough and intelligent enough, and
cultivated enough for his mate when
he is only crude, raw gosling, but

Lease Of Bee Building Said
To Be Largest Recorded Here

The lease just closed and recorded
on the Bee building property. con.
veying this to the Keystone Invest
nient company, is said by real estate
men here to be the largest real cs.
tate transaction to date in the history
OF Omaha. The next largest deal was
the leasing of the Schlitz corner at
Sixteenth and Harvey from George
a. Joslyn to Harry A, Wolf. which
called for an annual rental OF 5 per
cent on valuation Of 100000.
(. The lease OF the Bee building, with
J two lots 1872 feet square and four
story fireproof annex across the al
ley, calls for 5 per cent annual
rental on valuation OF $4,000.
The original cost OF the, Bee build
ing was 100000. 1t was one of the
first steel construction, freproof
buildings in the city. Considering the
splendid type of improvements, the
location OF the ground-in the civic
as we'll as the financial center of
Omaha-this lease is regarded as one
of the most favorable negotiated in
this city. The lease carries with it an
obligation ON the part of the lessees
to remodel the lower part OF the
building so as to secure more space
and higher rents. The lease also car
ries with il an option to purchase for
the first five years at $4,000, the
next FIVE years at $735,000. the next
ten years at $7s0.000, and the balance

ing woman to marry him until he
can also set the wedding day. i
The young boy who asks a girl to
wait for him while he goes out into
the world to make his fortune can
only justify his foolhardiness by his
youth. He is so young he does not
realize what he is doing. If he is
honorable, he is tying himself down
tor life before he has even begun to
live; and if he is dishonorable, he is
wantonly sacrificing a woman's life.
The boy goes out into the great
university of life. He learns, grows,
develops, changes from boy to man.
He comes to belong to another
world than that of his early love, but
some day he knows that he must go
back and make good on that engage
ment. His love has flickered and
gone out. His heart may even be an
others.
If he has the courage, he tells the
girl that he has outgrown his boyish
affection, and there is one more sour
old maid in the world, a woman who
has been defrauded of her springtime
of love and happiness by waiting on
vain hope.
1T he lacks the courage, and is of
the stuff that martyrs are made of, he
goes back and keeps his troth, and
marries the girl, and both are miser-
able ever after.
So, son, pass up the early engage
ment! Flee it as you would the

tional straight tip: Any woman of

herself to boy of Is is a candidate

Be Pretty! Turn
Gray Hair Dark
Look Young! Nobody Can Tell II
You Use Grandmother's Simple
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur. -

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
luster to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeths Sage, and
Sulphur Compound" you will get
large bottle of this famous old recipe,
improved by the addition of other
ingredients, for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire dark hair and a
youthful appearance. 1t is not intend

Stone and Pillard Make
Show at Gayety Twinkle

A fantasy of fairyland with all the
mimicry and imagery in which chill
dren and their elders delight is on
at the Gayety theatcr this week. The
Joe Hurtig show features Stone and
Pillard, reputed to be the best dancers
on the circuit, in "The Rag Doll in
Ragland"
Miss Eta Pillard wins almost all
the credit for building up Stone and
Pillard's fame as dancers de luxe.
Mr.. Stone does not even attempt
more than one terpsichorean number
and he is graceful and agile enough in
that. But to compare him to Miss
Pillard would make justice yawn a
mighty yawn. His 1.-THE little partner
is veritable queen OF twinkling toes,
who is as quick to flop handspring
as she is to shuttle her nimble feet.
But Mr.. Stone need not feel peeved
because his blond partner outdances
him, He earned laurels enough as a
fun-maker. Four times during the
show the audience clappcd and whis-
tied and refused to let the other num-
bers proceed until he had responded
to an encore.
But even Stone and Pillardl haven't
a corner on all the praise. There's
Teddy Dupont, for instance, whose
fresh beauty, demure mannerisms and
good singing wins warm welcome,
Jesse Hiatt, whose scant clothing is
beautifully filled, gets prolonged APP
plause when she sings, but whether
her form or her voice win the plaudits
is matter of dispute. Both are good.
The chorus is fast-stepping crowd
of girls who smile, sing and dance as
though they meant it.
There are nine special scenery sets
and each is thing OF beauty.
