TO REMOVE DANDRUFF

Get a small bottle of Danderine at
any drug store for a few cents, pour a
little into your hand and rub well into
the scalp with the finger tips. By
morning most. if not all, of this awful
scurf will have disappeared. Two or

Most Old People
Are COnStipated

The wear of years irnpairs the
action of the bowels. AS people
grow older they restrict their
activity, neglect to take sufficient
exercise, and indulge a natural
disposition to take things easy.
The digestive organs become
more sensitive to the demands
made upon them and rebel more
quickly.
It is of special importance to
the health of elderly people that
the bowels be kept normally
active. A mild, yet effective,
remedy for constipation, and
one that is especially suited to
the needs of old folks, women
and children, is the combination
of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin Sold in drug stores under
the name of DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin. It costs only
fifty cents a bottle, and should be
in every family medicine chest
A trial bottle, free of charge,
can be obtained by writing to

ington St, Monticello, Illinois.

H.S.ALUMN|PLAN
FOR Big REUNION
At THAPPY HOLLOW
Young and Older Will Meet
Monday Night at Happy
Hollow Club to Talk
Old Times.
By A R. GROH.

The Omaha High School Alumni
association will hold its annual re-
union at the Happy Hollow club next
Monday evening.
That item may not excite you very
much But, as there are few thous-
and members of the association, 1t
isn't inappropriate to have a little
write-up of it in this column, written
by an alumnus and in this paper, pub
lished and edited by an alumnus.
We are a pretty high-brow associa-
ton, by Zeus! (You see we use CLASH
cal exclamations.) We are the mon
plus ultra" (Latin words.) We
alumni use the ancient Latin quite a
bit. We know how to pronounce e
pluribus unum" and all those words.
We are alumni" you see. Ordinary
people would call themselves gradu-
ate, but we use the Latin alumni"
from the verb "alere" meaning to
nourish."
The girls we call "alumnae," which
is the feminine OF alumni" as you
would know if you understood Latin
like we do. !
Knows His Latin.
We call the Omaha High school
our alma mater" which means, dear
mother" as you would know II you
understood Latin like we do.
We know lots of other words, too,
like "sine die" and "Gallia est omnis
divisa in parties tres" OF course, all
this high knowledge has been secured
at the cost OF burning the midnight
oil. We, while our companions slept,
were toiling upward in the night. We
also know Greek. Oh, my, yes! Don't
you wish you were an alumnus!
The association was organized IN
1908. All graduates of the Omaha
High school are deemed members OF
the association. This year, for the
first time, all the high schools OF
Greater Omaha are united in the as
sociation.

lair. 1t brings together giddy young

are today professional and business
men of the city and Of other cities
They are found in legislative bodies
and the halls OF congress. Some OF
them are. teaching u the institution
from which they graduated. They are
a company of useful citizens of which
one may we'll be proud. And dear old

turning out others who are prepared
p1ive useful and honored lives.
Business First.
The annual reunion is an informal
affair which begins with business
meeting and continues with dancing
and visiting. The high school yell
i apt to be heard. Groups gather
and compare notes and tell what
teachers were there when they were
there, and so on. And the orchestra
plays and alumni and alun1nae whirl
in the merry dance.

seemly expression for an alumnus to
employ. Let us say "fifty cents").
Fifty cents admits to all. You see,
alumni, though very brainy. indeed
are not snobbish.
