Our Women and Children Conducted by Lucille Skaggs Edwards. KEEP YOUR CHILDREN OUT DOORS Let the sunshine smile its wav in their glad young hearts. Let them laugh and play in joyous innocence of youth. Give them the comradeship of (tkcr •hiliiren of their own age. Give them pets—cats and dogs .and chickens. It will foBi-ee consideration and affection for those things that in the plan of life have come to be dependent upon man. Let them walk beside the stream. Let them play in the running brook Let them burrow in the good, clean earth. Let them frisk about and scream and yell and holler in their play like the healthy young animals that they will be. Let them be as natural as the grass beneath and the tree that gives them shelter from the summer shower or the noonday sun. Keep your children out in the coun try. And let them grow just as God in tended they should grow. —Hiram Moe Greene. LOVE. Love is the wind, the tide, the wave, the sunshine. Its power is incalcul able; it is many horse-power. It never ceases, it never slacks; it can move with the globe without a resting place; it can warm without fire; it can feed without meat; it can clothe without garments; it can shelter witn out roof, it can make a paradise with in which will dispense with a para dise, without. But though the wisest men in all ages have labored to pub lish this force, and every human heart is, sooner or later, more or less, made EVENTS AND PERSONS James G.

Randall enter tained in honor of their mother, Mrs. to feel it, yet how little is actually applied to social ends. True, it is the power of all successful social ma hinery; but, as in physics we have made the elements do only a little drudgery for us, steam to take the place of a few horses, wind of a few oars, water of a few cranks and hand-mills; as the mechanical forces iave not yet been generally applied to make the physical world answer to the ideal, so the power of love has been but meanly and sparingly ap plied, as yet.—Selected. REMEMBRANCE. By Eleanor C. Hull. The new can never quite efface the old, For always in our thoughts the old love clings, And always in our hearts when all is told Remembrance sings. Scenes of our busy lives may change and shift, Yet with an inner vision we descry green hills left To meet the sky. Some house that made our home through happy years, Some mother heart of love, unfailing, true, Some room that held the deepest hopes and fears Our living knew. Then grim Today may grip us, gaunt and bold, And bend us with the weight of pres ent things— Deep in the heart of each when all is told Remembrance sings. \ J. H. Randall, and Mrs. Fields, Sr., of Sedalia, Mo. Covers were laid foi fourteen and a three course luncheon was served. With Mrs. H. Fields, Jr., at the piano, and reading by the host ess, the evening proved a delightful one. Mrs. Randall and her small son, Cleo, returned home Saturday even ing. AN OPEN LETTER. The management of the North Star Cafe, North 24th street at Erskine street, takes this means of acquaint ing their many friends and patrons that it was their fondest desire on opening to cater to Omaha’s Colored population, giving the best of goods, attention and service and never at any time has this point of view been lost; but of late unseen difficulties have arisen and some of our patrons have been misled into believing that they were only welcome when they tipped the waitress, and this letter is written to expressly refute such an existing condition, as we pay as good wages, and even better, than most small business propositions of its kind, and want all to feel the wel i come of our house whether they tip . or not, as all money looks alike to us, and everybody is welcome. We must have your patronage to exist. We handle nothing but the best government inspected meats and all other things in accordance. I sincerely hope this will put h» right before our many friends and , patrons and hope to merit a continu ance of your patronage. Count Wilkinson, Proprietor.
