GOLDEN SILENCE.

bassador Extraordinary and Minister
Pionipotentiary TO the Court of ST.
James's, quondam "tin soldier on dress
parade sometime aide to New Jer-
sey governor. former colonel of non
existent regiment. Ne. &c. must have
been mtzzled by his chief since his
notorious Pilgrims dinner speech In
which he disclaimed any honorable
war motives for America. Since then
the august George has been ached-
uded 10 speak at three affairs. and
each time he has sent regrets. Can
you imagine the peppery Warwick re-
fusing q chance To- talk publicly? why
nothing short Of sudden ,lumbness or
a tight curb bit could keep his tongue
still u is known that he has not
lost power of speech. Ergo. the bit
must have been applied with aharp
and cruel jerk.
While the silence Of this e.traor.
binary man is golden, It is hoping too
much that for three pears and nine
months his voice viii not he heard.

bonds and great Will be the noise

that it had had the nerve "a recall

Mrs. Farrand of Omaha Gets
Rid of Rheumatism and
Feels Better Than
in Years.

"Tanlac did for me far more than
| expected, for it not only rid ME of
rheumatism, but it made 1ne feel bet
ter in every way than / have for
years" said Mrs. Bessie NJ. Farrand,
2407 n street, Omaha, Neb.
about three years ago | had such
an awful attack OF rheumatism in my
arms, feet and lowcs limbs that | had
to take my bed, where l lay for
weeks almost helpless. After going
through agonies | pulled myself to-
gether enough to get out of bed, but
even then | was so crippled up |
could hardly walk. My stomach was
all out of order and nothing | ate
agreed with me. Ny head ached
constantly, and at times when I
would bend over to pick up pin or
fasten my shoes | would almost fall.
"Tanlac has just made me feel like
a different person, given me an appe-
tite, toned up and soothed my stom-
ach so that everything | eat agrees
with me, and it has entirely rid me
of the rheumatism. 1t certainly is no
more like any Of the other medicines
| have tried than daylight is like
darkness. 1t is just wonderful the
relief it brought me and | will praise
it the longest day | live"
Tanlac is sold in Omaha by the
Sherman & Mcconnell Drug CO.
and by leading druggists everywhere.

Davis Forecasts
Probe of Omaha
Bankrupt Firms
Sensational Developments and
Prosecutions Probable:
Bankruptcy Cases For
Year Number l26.

A special grand jury investigation
into the conditions OF various Oma-
ha companies recently bankrupt,
was forecast yesterday by Attorney
General Clarence A. Davis. who was
in Omaha. Sensational develop
ments and criminal prosecutions are
probable features of the situation.
The attorney generals office has
been obtaining information for sew
eral weeks. the work having been
hampered by the inability OF this de-
partmcnt to compel the giving OF
testimony under oath.
The United States district court
shows the largest number OF bank
ruptcy cases in the history of the
state. The state securities bureau
at Lincoln explains that permits for
the sale of stocks under criticism
were granted by former administra-
tons.
Twelve Omaha companies recent
ly bankrupt are said to be under the
surveillance of the attorney gener-
ais office.

Robber In Store
Holdup Man Makes Off With
Contents of Cash Register
After Slugging Proprietor
of Shop.

Jacob Green. o.. was sIugged,
beaten unconscious and robbed in his
dry goods store at 2l07 Cunning
street about , yesterday afternoon,
The robbery was not discovered
until an hour later, when he recov-
cred consciousness and crept to a
barber shop next door to give the
alarm.
Green was alone in the store when
a young fellow came in and asked to
be shown some goods When the
storekeeper turned to get them, the
young man slugged him on the head
with revolver. Green dropped and
the robber ran to the cash register
and scooped the contents into his
pockets.
While he was so engaged the
storekeeper recovered consciousness
enough to creep to the robber and
struggle with him. Green bit the
burglars finger and the burglar
choked and continued TO beat him
until he fell again unconscious.
When Green gave the alarm his
face and head were covered with
blood. Police took him to Central
station, where he was given first aid
and taken to his home, 7l4 North
Seventeenth street. He gave fair
description OF his assailant to the
police.

Common Sense
BY J. J. MUNDY.
Make The Best of It.

Just because the order OF things
as decided on by your boss does not
suit you is no reason why you should
not enter heartily into his plans.
You should realize that your en-
ployer has the right to do what he
chooses about his place OF business,
irrespective OF whether you are
pleased.
1t is possible you resent a cetain
order which YOU have to follow and
YOU think it would be much better if
you would do it another way.
Don't be too quick to say SO.
Try to get both sides of the mat
ter in your mind first.
Ii you are convinced that it does
not work out right and you have
the proof then go to headquarters
and present your case, not in the way
OF fault finding, but with the desire
to bring about an improvement.
If your boss is the right sort Of a
man he will listen to you.
But because you have suggested
changes do not expect them to be
at once adopted.
You cannot expect that your boss
is always going to take you into his
confidence as to why he decides on
certain courses.
You would not do so were you
in his place.

WHY
Can We See the Outline Of the
Moon When 1t Is Not Shining?


1t frequently occurs on clear,
starry evening, that we can make out
the entire sphere of the moon when
only small portion of this satellite
is visible in the form OF a crescent
or new" moon. The remainder OF
the moon appears as dark mass, not
nearly so sharply outlined as the
bright, crescent-shaped portion, but
nevertheless distinctly visible. This
is due to the fact that the light
of the sun, reflected from the earth,
serves partially to illumine the por-
ton of the moon which is in the
shadow and also because the light of
the stars throw the dark surface into
a more or less sharp relief, enabling
us clearly to complete the circle Of
which the crescent forms only a
part. 1t is then that the moon ap-
pears as it really is-a huge ball,
with only one edge illumincd by
the rays OF the sun and the remain
der thrown into contrasting shadow.
1t is interesting to note, however,
that at least one well-known poet
was ignorant of this fact, for, in
"The Ancient Mariner" we find the
lines:
"The horned moon, with one bright
star,
Within the neither tip"
As the nearest star is many mil

Jewel, Flower, Color
Symbols for Today
By MILDRED MARSHALL,

Today is meant for brides, if the
ancient beliefs governing its jewels
the lapis lazuli and the onyx-arc
to be observed.
The lapis lazuli, which is the tails
manic gem. is symbolic OF faithful
love, and those who wear it need not
fear jealousy, and will be sure of
the constancy of their loved ones.
The onyx is the natal stone and
is the emblem of a happy marriage.
The ancients believed that it assured
a newly-married couple of a pros
porous and successful life together,
and gave them faith and sympathy.
Pale pink is today's color and was
believed by the orientais to make
the world look rose-colored to those
who wore it.
The camelia, which is said to en-
dow its wearer with beauty, is the
flower for today.

IL think the opportunities for sue
cess in life are greater to-day than they ever
we're before whether we look back ten years
or a hundred years or along the centuries
before steam and all the new powers over
nature which chemistry. physics and biology
have developed. The opportunities are
vastly greater; but the individual needs
better gifts and education than he ever
needed before in order to make use of his
opportunities. The gifted and well trained
youth will also find in all probability that
the standard of success has risen.
81 observe that II takes more years now
than Il used to for the individual 20 attain
distinction in any calling Furthermore. on
account OF the greater specialization In all
trades and professions many successful In
diyiduals become known or distinguished not
in the community at large but only In the
special group 10 which they belong Beyond
that group the successful man may not be
known at all, in spite or real eminence

Another source OF disorganization Will
be the division Of the armed forces into
minute detachments to guard the many be-
leaguered gates OF capitalism. The strikers.
or revolutionists, win be everywhere. and
will everywhere seize or disable whatever
capitalist property they can lay their hands
on. To protect this property the armed
forces will have TO be divided into myriad
of guards and scattered along the thousands
of miles OF railroads and around the many
public buildings. bridges. factories, &c. The
wealthy capitalists themselves will also need
generous guards. The most important indus
tries such as transportation, mining. &C,
will have TO be operated in some manner.
To do this will require many thousands more
