For a New Umbrella.

Before using a new umbrella inject
a small quantity of vaseline into the
hinge portion of the frame. If put on
carefully the vaseline will not spread
and is sure preventive against rust.
Also, always stand wet umbrellas on
their handle to dry. This allows the
water to run out of them instead of
into the part where the silk and ribs
meet, thus causing the metal to rust
and the silk to rot.-Good Housekeep-

"They are really suffering from
cumulative constipation"

~OUNTLESSn numbers of people have daily
elimination of waste matter from the sys-
~ tenn but this elimination is not thorough
and sufficient. They depend on regular weekly
purge to rid their intestines of poisons and they
never feel the full vigor and zest that come from
perfect health.
This whole problem is so important that we'll
known medical journal has published collection
of essays on constipation. All the doctors who
wrote these essays emphasize the importance Of
diet. As one physician puts it, "The diet has the
most marked influence upon the normal activity
of the bowels
Scientists have now discovered the simple food
that helps restore normal conditions, and clears
the body of accumulating waste matter-just the
familiar little cake of Fleschmann's Yeast!
First came the startling discovery that Fleisch-
mann's Yeast richly supplies the essential water
soluble vitamine. Then it was found that it
builds up the body tissues and keeps the body
resistant to disease In addition, because of its

Labor Situation
Economic Crime
Asserts Compers
Wage Reduction Will Not Re-
lieve Unemployment, De-
clares A. f. L. President
AT Convention.

Atlantic City, N. j., Aug. 23.-The
present unemployment situation is an
Economic crime that is resulting in
a loss of $27, 100000 a day in wages
to the workers of the country, Presi-
dent Samuel Gompers declared last
night, following a session OF the ex-
ecutive council OF the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, at which present
unemployment conditions were dis
cussed
Wage reductions will not relieve
the situation, the veteran labor CHIEF
said, adding that such action will
further curtail our domestic pur-
chasing power and more factories
will close because the people haven't
the money to buy their products.
Cut Will Prove Boomerang.
"The present depression" he
added, will become even more acute
and the reductions, if they can be
forced upon us. will not only prove
boomerang to the employer, but a
menace to our economic, financial
and political structures.
I'm all this talk about readjust-
ment and reconstruction. why is it
that the pressure is always brought
to bear upon those whose standards Of
life and every day existence would
be demoralized and deteriorated by a
reduction in wages, and why this
drive to reduce their wages first?
The rank and file cannot understand
how readjustment and reconstruction
can mean only reduction OF their
wages.
Il have been asked who, among
the capitalists, has suggested a re-
duction in the rate of interest on a
loan or reduction of profits, or even
a simultaneous reduction of wages
and profits.
THE cost of living has not come
down. Instead, with profiteering un-
checked and unrestrained. it is gong
up, especially rents. Ninety per
cent of the homes in the United
States were built before the war, but
the exorbitant rents gquged out OF
the tenants by the profiteering and
unsrupulous landlords is blamed on
the high cost of labor during the
war"
The council had before it pro-
posal to call upon congress to take
steps to relieve the present unemploy-
ment situation by legislation and
making appropriations that would
aid in speeding up public work. Ac-
ton on this will probably be taken
later this week. |

The romance between Omaha's
perfect man and the famous model OF
Syracuse is causing considerable
comment in the east, where Miss
Munson is we'll known. In fact. she
is known on two continents.
He entered military service in
France when he was lS, and was
two years in the blue devil con-
tingent. He is a native of Paris and
a trained machinist. In 1916 he won
the ski championship of France and
has excelled at discus throwing and
other sports. He is % years old.
Delacroix carries an autograph
photograph of Georges Carpenter,
whom he regards as a friend.

Miss Munson went forward this

Delacroix has entered the ski
events to be held next February at
Glenwood park, near Minneapolis.
He will urge that Miss Munson at-
tend that contest, at which he will
endeavor to win the championship
of the world.
Il know l could win the champion
ship if Miss Munson would attend"
Delacroix added. He has jumped
from 180 to 100 feet on skis.

Mystery Shrouds
Discovery Of
Woman's Clothes
Police Believe Grandmother
Of Much-Kidnaped Char
lotte Mayo Drowned; Son.
In-Law Suspects Hoax.

New York, Aug. 25.-A mystery
OF the sea which opens the way for
speculation along various lines came
with the discovery, at midnight in a
bath house at Coney Island, of the
clothing of Mrs. f. S. Cheatham, a
wealthy widow of Walls, Miss, and
grandmother of the muvh-kid-
naped Charlotte Mayo, daughter of
MIR. and Mrs Roy A. Mayo.
If Mrs. Cheatham was drowned,
as the police believe, her daughter is
utterly at a loss to explain how she
came to visit Coney Island. She had
started out Sunday to motor to
Long Beach, where she was to meet
a friend at Breton Hall hotel.
Roy Alfred Mayo, an investment
broker, says he believes the alleged
drowning is hoax. He charges his
wife and her mother with various
illegal practices in Denver and
Pueblo, Colo, and says ]. J. Will

vestigating disturbing reports re-
garding Mrs. Cheatham, had been
shocked by what he discovered in
Colorado.
Mrs. Mayo fears her mother is
drowned, but clings to. the hope she
may have suffered an attack of men,
ory and has taken refuge in a
along the shore. Police
began dragging the surf for her
body at daylight this morning.
The disappearance of Mr.. Cheat
ham adds interest to the Mayo di-
vorce case and the repeated kidnap-
ing of their daughter, Charlotte,
who had been stolen first by one
parent and then by the other.

Andre Delacroix, a French blue
devil" during the world war, sojourn-
ing i'll Omaha for a few months, has
ambitions to be the eugenic husband
of Audrey Munson, perfect woman"
and famous model of Syracuse, N. Y.
Correspondence, which is gaining
fervid momentum, is being ex-
changed between Delacroix and Miss
Munson, the model recently having
indicated through the public press
that she is in quest of a perfect man
to be the father OF her children.
He Is the Man.
Delacroix asserts he is the man and
he is in the field as contender for
first place.
A letter received this morning by
Delacroix from the model reads in
part:
MY Dear Mr.. Delacroix: | am not
turning down your proposal, but ask
you to keep up correspondence with
me and hope that we shall meet some
time. Your photographs are lovely
and | am grateful for your coming

graciously, your fond friend"
He Could Love Her.
In his first letter to Mrs. Munson
Delacroix frankly informed the
model that he is "a man perfectly
built" and he expresses his belief
that he could love Miss Munson in
honorable manner if she is as perfect
as described "in the papers"
