his investment. "Any fair minded
business man will concede that" he
said. He argued that every yard
should keep books in such shape as
to know at the end of the year which
particular line of stock had produced
a given part of his profit. MANY Of
the Dealers" he said, simply know
at the end of the year that their profit
is so-or-so much, but have no idea
what particular line of stock produced
the profit, or what line of the, stock
may have lost money.

your toes raw and sore, and used plasters

"Gets-It' just once. You put 2 or 3 drops

the corn dies a painless, shriveling death,
it loosens from your toe, and off it comes.

Hairs Quickly Vanish
After This Treatment


: Science has aided in simplifying the
banishing Of hairy growth from the
face, and, according to a beauty
specialist, the most effective treat
ment yet devised consists of apply

made by mixing some water with a
little powdered delatone. When this
paste is removed and the skin washed
every trace of hair has vanished. Be

RETAILERS WANT
SPRINKLING PLAN
Believe Work Could Be Done
More Thoroughly by the
City.
DEPOT PLANS REVISED

The creation of certain districts in
the city where sprinkling Of streets
shall be done by the city, is desired
by the Associated Retailers Of Omaha.
This is one OF the movements started
by that organization at its meeting at
the Commercial club rooms yesterday.
The resolution adopted pledged the
retailers to refuse this year to enter
into any contract with any private
concern for the sprinkling of down
town streets, believing that this work
should be done more thoroughly and
should be done by the city through
the creation of certain districts, where
the sprinkling should be done by the
municipality. This, they believe,
would do away with the numerous
spots along the thoroughfares that 60
through the summer without sprink-
ling.
The retailers provided for a COM
mittee to investigate and report back
to the next meeting the progress
being made by the Commercial club
in the movement for obtaining a new
Union depot for Omaha The Asso-
ciated Retailers were among the
pioneers in demanding a new Union
depot, and they now insist that the
matter be taken up again. The motion
was made by W. S. Stryker.
Oppose Wheel Tax.
They opposed the proposed wheel
tax ordinance, declaring in resolution
that the people are already suffering
from the high cost OF living brought
about largely by the high cost Of
doing business, which this tax would
tend to increase. T. P. Redmond and
w. S. Stryker were appointed by the
president to represent the retailers at
special meeting in the city hall to
protest the proposed wheel tax
ordinance.
w. H. Schneider, Robert Rosenz-
weig and r. c. Goddard were APP
pointed members Of a legislative COM
mittee. &
1t was decided to hold another
special meeting OF the association
Tuesday noon. February 20.
Secretary Metcalfc made report
on the work of special committee
which went to Lincoln to appear
against the minimum wage bill and
other meas ,res introduced in the
legislature. Mr.. Sanderson of the
Rudge & Gunzel company Of Lincoln,
being in Omaha attending the Hard
ware mems convention, was present
at the meeting OF the Associated Re-
tailers as guest. He said his asso-
citation together with the Manufac-
turers association at Lincoln was do

New Bakery Opens
On Commercial Street

Bodcnheimer & Covey have opened
new bakery in Salem for the purpose
of selling direct to the retail trade.
They have re-modeled the old States
man location on North Commercial
street and have established an up-to-
date bakery.
Their efforts will be in the putting
out of loaf of bread that will com
pete with that of the housewife-real
home made bread. Their shop is now
open for inspection. Both of the owners
arc practical bakers and do their own
work. 1t is their intention to keep the
loaf as large as the costs of material
will permit, Pastries will be given
particular attention. The bakery is in
the rear of the room, while the front
has been arranged for retail purposes.
While they sell bead two loaves for Is
cents, one of their new ideas is that of
selling day old bread at five cents a
loaf. The name of the firm is the
Peerless Bakery
