It Is Interesting to note tlio effect of th
home-coming of those who have summered
out of town has hail upon the Country
tlub. Scores of new Ideas, practical and
otherwise, have been introduced thero of
late, some of which will he of permanent
benefit to the club, while others will paas
on with the numberless fads that have died
natural dnathB.
Novelties In golf costumes, whether they
be worn by men or women, have long since
ceased to attract more than passing com
ment and now that almost everyone has
exchanged storleR of their summer's ex
perience and become accustomed to the
new manners acquired by old friends while
away for the summer, golf has again be
come the one really interesting thing. Even
those whoso enthusiasm could not weather
the hot days of July and August (ire prac
ticing again There are people on the
links from sunrise until datk and everyone
Is looking forward to the time when the
ball will bound over the frozen ground,
driven by the strength that the cold, frosty
ntr will put Into every stroke.
The game on Wednesday between the
liaihelors and Benedicts brought out tho
largest crowd thut has gathered there for
home time and an unusual number of
dinner parties that evening was the result.
The main room In tho dub house has bo
come n popular gathering place of lato for
those who enjoy a comfortable place to
tpm yarn at twilight.
H has been suggested by some of the
more serlous-mlniled that unless society
forsakes some of the unconventional habits
tnto which It has fallen during the last
hummer It will be difficult for It to assume
its proper dignity and observe the formal
ities th.it are demanded at the fashionable
functions of the winter season. Hut con
ventionalities seem to bo the thing furthest
from the minds of Omaha's fashionable
people just nt present, ns one has only to
walk the length of the promenade during
the Intermission at the band concerts to be
onvlnccd. He may see society strolling
bai k and forth munching peanuts or pop
corn, or eating "welnles" with elbows
propped up on a counter. Others of the
swell set extend their palms to be read.
Uut the little blue ribbon badges worn by
so many of the young women explains nil
that, as well as the presence of the women
who stand behind the counters. Still one
iannot help wondering If It Is all for char
ity's sake that society biiys such quantities
of peanuts and popcorn or If Mr. Ilellstedt
Appreciates the shell-cracking accompani
ment that society furnishes him.

prepared. Health must be p.-ife t face ami
figure beyond criticism, and just here a
word about t'ie new Honstrom system of
hygiene bathing and massage. It is a
wonderful treatment, simple, yet effective.
It will do more for tho complexion than
all tho nostrums, tonlca, creams or pow
ders that ever camu out of a drug store,
because it is primarily a health-giving
treatment and health is tho basis of all
beauty. This treatment Is a positive cure
for all forms of rheumatism nnd nervom
trouble and will do more toward tha
proper development of the llguro than all
the exercisers, beautlflers and developers
ever made. Excessivo stoutness re
duced and the lines of youth and
fair proportion restored to those who are
too thin. Recommended and cordially en

Members of the South Omaha Commer
cial club are giving the proponed electric
suburban line iheir hearty support and It
Is thought that if the question of voting
bond3 imies up the people hero will do
curjthlug possible to carry the proposi
tion. A meeting of tho drcctors of the club
was hold Friday night, nt which this ques
tion was thoroughly discussed. Tho plans
for tho loop line, as outlined in Tho Boo
a day or two ago, met with tho approval
of tho body.
It Is asserted that suih a lino as tho ce
proposed will vastly boneflt South Omaha
and therefore It Is predicted that tho senti
ment in favor of tho bonds will bo almost
unanimous as soon as tho proposition Is
thoroughly understood. Local merchants
feel that rapid transit between this city
nnd tho small townB In tho vicinity will be
of Incalculable benefit not only to South
Omaha, but to the wholo county. As
freight Is to ho carried on the proposed
train:!, supplies for farms can be sent di
rect from here without going around by
Omaha, thus saving tlrao and transporta
tion charges.
At this meeting J. B. Wnlkins and Hli a
ard O'Kcefo were chosen directors to fill
vacancies caused by the dropping from the
directory roll of P. J. Barrett and J. J.
Breen Tho club has a rulo that when di
rectors miss n certain number of meetings
In succession their places will be declared
vacant. This rule is strictly adhored to In
order to maintain interest in tho work now
being dono by tho club and also to prevent
drones from holding office on tho board
when there Is so much work to bo dono.
