A Ten-Cent
Romance
By DORA NOLAN


tSh 1918, oy Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate)
Horace Burdett might have had a
dozen affairs of the heart-if. 1t was
no lack of time that was responsible,
for Horace was crowdinG forty-fve
very closely and he hsd reasonable
amount of leisure: nor ret that he was
a mysogynist, for he wts far from it.
II was because be was ;hat sort of
man. Horace was not a heroic figure.
He was under the medium height
he was slender; his shoulders had
early acquired a scholastic stoop; he
was near sighted and had to wear
spectacles at all times; from youth
he had mistakenly fostered mustache
that never grew up, and nature had
decreed that through life he should
wear an expression of ingenious grav-
ity like baby who watches another
baby suck a caramel. And he was
frightfully afraid of women.
Now Horace had his being in large
city. He gained his livelihood in an
Office where his services were appre-
ciated and his hours short He had
occupied the same large alcove bed
room in a house presided over by the
same landlady for many years. Thither
he repaired every afternoon, with al
most unfailing regularity, as soon as
his business duties were over, for
freshening and a change of raiment
before his walk and his dinner at the
same old restaurant. And he always
rode home on a surface car because
he liked as" little and subways less.
He never sat while a lady stood
albeit, he never got over the habit Of
blushing as he surrendered his place.
Came a time when the great war
took away so many of the men that
the street car people put on women
conductors.
Horace found some difficulty in ad-
justing himself to this new order of
things. Women should lead more shell
tered lives than making change for

Why Some Teeth Are Preserves,

"The reason that the front lower
teeth rarely decay and often last
through life when all the other teeth
have gone" said DIR. c. De Witt Henry
Of New York, rs that they are always
bathed in an alkaline solution.
''It is the acids of the mouth that
make the teeth decay. The salIvary
glands in the cheeks pour out slight.
ly acid fluid, those situated under the
tongue pour out an alkaline fluid. The
back teeth are constantly bathed In an
acid and therefore decay first. The
lower front teeth are so situated that
the alkaline secretion from under the
tongue floods them and preserves then
from decay"

In Cairo and Alexandria. Egypt, Gu

Omaha Woman's Club Concert.

The music department of the
Omaha Woman's club brought its
series of concerts by local artists to
a brilliant close yesterday evening
by presenting Henry Cox, violinist,
and Mrs, Cox, pianist, assisted by
the Omaha Woman's club chorus,
Henry Cox, director. In spite OF the
threatening weather, the Y w. c. A.
auditorium was fairly well filled
with an audience which gave fire.
quent expressions of enthusiasm.
MIR. Cox's work as violinist was
never better than on this occasion,
while as director of a recently or
gained chorus and accompanies for
the same, he evidenced most unusual
versatility.
His violin solos were in two
groups, the first being a religious
andantino by Martini and a light
and charmingly classical dance by
the Belgian composer, Gretry, lead
ing up to the adagio and allegro
from the concerto in G. minor by
Bruch, To this last he brought a
depth and nobility of tone and bril-
liant technique which made it truly
impressive. His later group was
striking in that the four composers
all bear the title, of lieutenant, al
though given, IS Mr. Cox explained
for musical reasons rather than
those of patriotism. There was all
ultra modern prelude by Lieutenant
Spaulding, a humoreske by Lieu
tenant Stoessel. a negro serenade
by Lieutenant Macmillen, and
minuet by David Hochstein. who,
Mr. Cox announced, was killed in
the battle of Argonnc. A most de-
lightful modern classic this min
uet is. Two charming encores were
added by Mr.. Cox.
Mrs. Cox, at the piano, followed
the words of her gifted husband,
giving splendid support and dis
closing piano technique of high
order. Assisting-the WomaHs club
chorus made its debut. Some forty
odd voices strong, this organizat ton
has, in its one short season, attained
a degree of skill upon which it is
safe to base a hope for its per-
manency. The tone quality is pleas
ing, the attacks good and an un-
usual variety of expression and SEN
timentis realized. 1t cannot be said
that this is done under the baton
of" Mr.. Cox. since he performs the
unusual feat of simultaneously d.
recting and playing the piano part.
OF the groups sang, MY Sweet
Repose," by Schubert. and unison
arrangement of "The Worldly
Hope" from Liza Lehmann's WE'LL
known song cycle, were done in the
best style and with most beautiful
tone. Notable, also. was "The
Dreamboat," by Nellie Shorthill |
Bradshaw, recently acquired add
ton to the musical colony of
Omaha.
An encore was generously added
after Zach chorus.
Mr. Cox added much to the pleas
ure of the evening by informal re-
marks on the music and composers.

Meanwhile, however, the plans

For this purpose the presence of
the plenipotentiaries charged with
the peace negotiations was imper-
alive, quite apart from the point of
prestige that plenipotentiar:es of the
allied and associated powers could
only meet with German representa-
tives of equal rank and dignity.
Furthermore, it is planned to have

his associates are prepared to adj

Forestall Efforts.
The council of foreign ministers
today approved the proposed pro-
vision of the peace treaty intended
to forestall any effort the Germans
might make to re-establsh a mill
tary machine by utilizing outside
forces. The article prohibits the
sending of German military instruct
ors to foreign countries. 1t was re-
ferred to the drafting committee.
1t was realized that, however COM
plcte might be the restrictions upon
Germany by the limitation of her
forces and armament, she still had
in her power considerable forces
that might be indirectly employed,
as already indicated by the dispatch
of German officers to Russia. 1t
was pointed out that unless this
practice was checked it would be
possible for Germany to create
practicable force in Russia.
This menace has become particu-
larly significant in view of reports
of an alliance between Germany and
Russia ....s .
Experts to France.
The ministers also approved two
recommendations of the supreme
economic council. The first recon-
mended that the Germans be re-
quested to send as soon as possible
