ANGLING FOR RICH PATRONS
How a New York MiIIiner Catches the
Unwary Western Woman
With Money.

In Woman's Home Companion,
Corinne Lowe tells of the wiles used
by a Fifth avenue milliner in MAX
ing the Fern Piper" hat famous:
"Those for whom the spider spread
its web We're not the wealthy and
questionable women of New York
but wealthy and prompt customers
from the middle West. These are the
people who make money for every
Fifth avenue speciality shop. And
the only difficulty which now lay in
our path was that this profitable Gus
tom always has to be secured through
a reputation for serving the most
fashionable members of New York So
ciety, those notorious fashionableS
who are SO sensitive to second bill
and who never think of paying their
first one until at least six months have
elapsed.
AT first we did not have a single
member of this sorority. What we
did was to fake them. This was
achieved by several ingenious meth
DDS. One of these was to pay $40
week each to the chauffeurs Of Mrs.
Philip Rhinestewart and of Mrs. Clin-
ton De Sale Rives for driving their
crested limousineS up before our
doors when these same ultra-faShion-
able employers We're otherwise en-
gagged. The empty limousines were
extremely efficacious, and it was not
long before the women who were try
ing to get into fashionable society
were impressed. One by one they came
to us.
Meanwhile, we were also paying
the clerks of two Of the smaIrest of
New York's hotels to recommend Fern
Piper to their rich out-of-town pa
irons"

Monday after spending a month on

More winter wheat has been
sowed in that section than ever be-
fore. The past season was one
which produced the most bountiful
crops and the highest prices ever ex-
perienced by farmers in that dry
farming district, and they are in bet
ter financial shape, comparatively,
than the farmers in the more favored
eastern part of the state. l.,
FLAX has been very profitable
crop in eastern Wyoming and west
ern Nebraska. Farmers, during the
war period. were getting $3.50 per
bushel for fax seed, from which was
pressed a lubricating oil used in
aeroplanes. This oil would not
freeze in high attitudes or low tenn
peratures. Since the armistice was
signed the price dropped to So per,
bushel, but it is a good money max
ing crop at that, as about eight
bushels to the acre is the average
crop,
lowing to a scarcity of labor the
growers of small grain in that sec
lion are a little bit slow about
threshing. but that will all be done
in good time and without great loss.
Kimball and all the other towns out
in that section are rejecting the

HOW TO ACQUIRE HAIR EAUTY
1FoR INDIG ESTloN

You can enjoy a delightful sham7
poo with very little effort and for a
very trifling cost, if you get from
your druggists a package of Can
throx and dissolve a teaspeonful in
cup of hot water. This makes a
full cup of shampoo liquid, enough
so it is easy to apply it to all the
hair instead of just the top of the
head. Your shampoo is now ready.
Just pour a little at a time on the
scalp and hair until both are en-
tirely covered by the daintily per-
fumed preparation that thoroughly
dissolves and removes every bit of
dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After
rinsing the hair dries quickly with
a fluffiness that makes it seem
heavier than it is, and takes on a
rich luster and a softness that
makes arranging it pleasure

sons who have had it are more apt than
ever to have it the second time. If you
are in this condition, nothing on earth will
build you up and strengthen you like Tan

tonic properties known to science.
As a reconstructive tonic and body
builder. it is without an equal and con-
tains the very elements needed by the
system to restore you to your normal
strength and weight
First Of all, Tanlac begins its action by
creating good healthy appetite for
wholesome. nourishing food and assists the
vital organs which have been weakened by
the disease to perform their natural func-
tions. thus helping to build up health and
strength in the natural way
This statemnt is easily proven by the
fact that Tanlas is now having the great
est sale of any system tonic in the history
Of medicine. In less than four years time
over ten million bottles have been sold and
the demand is constantly increasing.
In Connection with the Tanlac treatment.
it is necessary to keep the bowels open by

AUSTR|ANS ASK
j. s. SOLDIERS TO
MAINTAIN ORDER
Peoples of Old Dual Mon
archy Want Protection in
Right to Form Small
Republics.

Vienna, Dec. 2.-(By Associated
Press. )-On all sides in the former
Austrian empire one hears the plea
that small bodies of American troops
be sent to the centers of population
for the purpose of keeping order.
Such a step, it is held, would work
against the tendencies of unrest
caused by the countless political
and boundary disputes among the
numerous races, and help prevent
any trend toward bolshevism that
disorderly conditions might tend to
promote.
1t is urged by Jewish residents
arriving here from Przemysl and
Lemberg, for instance, that the
presence of a few American uni
forms would be sufficient protection
against such anti-semetic outbreaks
as have occurred at those places re-
Gently.
The word bolshevism is loosely
used here, but the only authentic
example of outbreaks taking on this
complexion appears to be furnished
among the Slovak population of
northwestern Hungary, where the
former ruling classes, the Magyar
country gentlemen, have virtually
abandoned their estates. 1t Is re-
ported that efforts by the Czechs to
take possession Of this territory was
followed by an uprising of the
peasants and also by outbreaks
against the Jews.
The most recent example of the
literalness with which the peoples
of the old dual monarchy have in
terpreted President Wilson's con-
ceptiou of self determination among
every body of people of the same
tongue and, race is to be found
among the inhabitants in the region
of Gottschee, some 80 miles north
east of Fiume, a body of about TO-
900 German-speaking people living
in the heart of -Slavia. Repre-

Pogroms Against Jews
in Lemberg Making
Hundreds Homeless

Vienna, Dec. 2.-(By Associated
Press. )-Hundreds are homeless at
Lemberg as the result of pogroms
against the Jews in that city. 1t is
reported that many people have been
killed and wounded and wholesale
looting has taken place. The troubt
is said to be extending west of ia
roslav and south to Drohobycz, as
we'll as to many towns in western
and eastern Galicia. Jewish reports
say that the disorders were the out
come of an effort to prevent the
Jews from carrying out the princi-
pie of fself-detmination, according
to President Wilson's program. Dis
interested observers state that the
fighting is the outgrowth of the fact
that the Ukrainians in Poland wish
to be free and under Ukrainian rule.
The people of Lemberg, with the
exception of the Jews, want to unite
with the Poles. The Poles, there
fore, are pursuing a policy of vio-
lence against the Jews, who are in
the minority.

State Treasurer Collects
Large Sum in Interest

Lincoln, Dec. 2-(SpeciaD-The
state treasurer of Nebraska has col
lected in interest on state deposits
for the present bienium the sum of
$97,0l40o, according to figures
given out today. OF this account
$29,8o091 was collected during the
month of November. 1t has been
possible to collect this increased
account because of the raise in the
amount OF interest demanded by
the present treasurer, Mr.. Hall, who
insisted that the banks holding state
deposits should pay 5 instead of 3
per cent interest.
During the biennium of 1856
the amount of interest collected
amounted to $4,000 while in the
