to bed right at night. Start with JOY
In your heart, hope in the future, kind
ness in your purpose. If it is dark
day, never mind; you will brighten it
up. II 1t is a bright day, you will add
to the brightness. Give a word Of
cheer. a kindly greeting and a warm
handshake to your friends says
writer In Leslie's.
II you have enemies, look up, pass
them by, forget and try to forgive.

much Of human happiness is made
BY ourselves, there would be less Of
human misery.

happiness Is from within and not from
without, there would be a well-spring
Of Joy in every heart and the sun
would shine forever. =.

ETHER FIRST USED IN BOSTON
In 1a44 Horace Wells, a Dentist, Made
a Successful Experiment on
,S'si Himself.

In 1874, Horace Wells, dentist, Hart
ford, Conn.,, attended lecture by Col
ton on nitrous oxid gas. In illustrat-
ing the lecture gas was administered
to one Of the audience, who became
unconscious. This led Wells to be-
lieve that it might be employed to rem
der painless the extraction OF teeth.
He tried It on himself and found that
It was so.
During the same year William Nor
ton, q Boston dentist, heard that sui
furic ether could be inhaled in small
quantities to produce unconsciousness.
Accordingly, he experimental. He was
insensible for eight minutes. On re-
covering he concluded that ether might
be employed successfully in surgical
work. On October 16. 1886, Morton ad-
ministered ether to patient In the
Massachusetts, general hospital In
Boston.
It was in November, 1S47, that Simp-
son, famous Scottish scientist OF Edin-
burgh, resolved to try personally the
inhalation Of chloroform. Sitting with
his friends, Duncan and Keith, around
q dinner table, he proposed that they
inhale chlsroform. Each consented to
the test. First, their minds were liven-
ed; then they fell into a deep stupor.
Simpson, recovering first, found Dun
can snoring on the floor, and Keith,
half-sensible, struggling to regain the
chair from which he had fallen.

How Long
Will It Burn?

Seal lighted candle in a jar.
Soon the flame will die down and
burn feebly-until finally, when the
oxygen has been exhausted-the
light goes out. The candle burns
only as long as the supply of oxy-
gen lasts. a.'
Without oxygen there can be no
life. The body dies unless the blood
is supplied with oxygen. If your
blood is not vitalized with life-giv-
ing oxygen, it soon becomes thin,
pale and impoverished.
If you are run down, nervous and
anaemic, it simply means that you
have not enough oxygen in your
blood. Try the REOLO Tonic
Treatment that supplies to the
blood the organic iron (which is
easily assimilated by the blood)
the revitalizing, life-giving oxygen
and the natural cell-salts that the
body must have to maintain health,
strength and vigor.

reconstructive qualities. 1t stimu-
htes the circulation of the blood,

GAS co. DEMANDS
TWICE WHAT THE
CITY WILL Offer
Omaha Corporation Counsel
Begins Argument Before
Condemnation Court-De-
cision Expected Feb. g.

The Omaha Gas company wants
nearly twice as much for its plant
in Omaha as the city of Omaha be-
lieves it is worth.
Corporation Counsel Lambert be-
gan the argument of the case before
the board of condemnation in the
court house yesterday. Evidence
has been taken at various times
since last March. After the argu-
Inent is finished the three men who
form the board of condemnation
will render their decision.
The highest figure arrived at by
the experts employed by the city
was $3,3Sl 900 and the lowest figure
$3,000,0oo. The gas company's ex-
perts found the plant to be worth
from $5,500,000 to $6,000,000. 1t is
the task of the board of condemna-
ton to decide on a fair figure be-
tween these two widely divergent
yaluations.
Public Right to Use.
THE right to use this property
has always rested in the public" de-
clared Corporation Counsel Lam
bert in making his argument this
morning. 1T has only been trans
ferred to the gas company tempor-
arily during the life of the COM
pany's franchise"
But of what use is this plant
without the right to use it in manu-
featuring and distributing gas?"
asked ex-senator w. V. Allen, a
member of the board of condemna-
ton.
at is of no particular use" said
Mr.. Lambert, without the franchise.
But the city owns the franchise and
without that franchise the gas COM
pany has little use for its plant and
equipment"
Decision February 9.
Mr.. Lambert is alone in arguing
the city's side of the case. The gas
company is fortified by three repre-
sentatives of legal talent, Judge w.
d. McHugn, recently appointed gen.
cral counsel for the International
Harvester company; w. H. Herd
man and ]. w. Dana of Kansas
City.
The board OF condemnation which
has been hearing the evidence and
will make the final decision consists
of District Judges George A. Day Of
Omaha, E. E. Good of Wahoo, and
w. V. Allen of Madison, Neb.
The argument of the big case will
take three days. Final decision on
a price at which the city can buy
the plant will be handed down by
the board Of condemnation before
February 9, on which date Judge
Day takes his seat as a supreme
justice of Nebraska.

CLIENT LETS CAT
OUT; SPOILS PLAN
TO STOP GRADING
Attorney Intended utting
One Over" On Council In
Howard Street Project.

John Paul Breen. attorney for
property owners who are opposing
the St. Marys avenue and Howard
street grading project, admitted in
the city council chamber yesterday
that he had been outwitted on ac-
count of one of his clients telling
Mayor Smith of his plans.
Mr.. Breen looked up the law and
discovered that before the council
could legally approve this project
notice should be given to all in
terested property owners of a spe-
'cial meeting to consider the legality
and suficiency of the petition call
ing for improvement. Mr.. Breen's
plan was to allow the council to ap-
prove the project without holding q
special meeting, and then he would
attack the validity of the proceed
ings at a later date.
Yesterday when Mr.. Breen and
a delegation of protestants ap-
peared in the council chamber, he
was asked if he wished to make any
statement. Blandly, Mr.. Breen an
nounced that he was willing to ac-
cept the action of the council, ap-
proving the project.
City Commissioner Towl arose
and offered resolution, which calle,,
special meeting to be held in
the council chamber next Thursday
morning.
Mr.. Breen turned red. He could
not understand how his little coup
had been forestalled, until Mayor
Smith explained how it happened.
"One of Mr.. Breen's clients told
me Wednesday that Mr.. Breen in
tended to allow the council to pro-
ceed with approval of this project
and then to enjoin the improvement
on the grounds that the council did
not hold a special meeting as re-
quired by law" the mayor said.
Mr.. Breen retired from the coun-
Gil chamber with as mich grace as
the circumstances would permit,
while members of the council and
others present enjoyed the humor of
the situation.
