Paradise Regained.
I loved my love with a deep, deep love
Which words rould never tell;
I yearned to own my iireciotis aove.
In bliss with her to d7?l!.
But whtn I told her. "I'm too poor
To auk a girl to wed,"
She, answered, "Oh, I'm not so sure!"
Then, blushingly, she said:
"If you love me and I love you
Why longer, then, delay?
It'a And a room that holds but two
And move right In today!
Bince happlnens la all we wish
We'll get a cosy nest.
With a folding-bed and a chafing-dish,
And Love will do the rest."

i Gaiety seems to have become a habit with
society, a habit that has so firmly laid hold
of every set and every clique that one can't
help looking ahead a bit and wondering
what the fashionables are going to do when
Lent comes. Of course, there will be the
Tuesday euchre and the muslcale and
whist, for they are already established or
will be before the week Is over, and every
body knows by this time the power of
those diversions to console those who feci
bound to eliminate more pretentious dissi
pation during the forty quiet days. Hut
"sufficient unto the day," etc., and in the
meantime society evidently Intends to make
the most of its opportunities, and when
opportunities are not afforded society makes
them.

A number of women prominent In society

WGUAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY
The eighth annual report of the New York
State Association Opposed to the Exten
sion of Suffrage to Women Is out. Accord
ing to the report the association Is about
to complete the tenth year of Its effort,
but for some reason, doultles modesty,
It falls to state anything thnt has been
accomplished. Mrs. Lyman Abbott Is pres
ident of the organisation and two of the
eight pages are devoted to names of com
mittee women, among whom are a score
or more of prominent New York society
women and as many more who are wives
of men almost as prominent as Dr. Lyman
Abbott In this "efTort to protect women
agalnHt themselves." The holding of parlor
meetings Is the only activity recorded, the
report going on to say that "whenever an
Invitation to address a meeting Is received
the executive committee endeavors to pro
vide a speaker, but when fhe Invitation, as
Is often the case. Is to speak In Joint de
bate the secretary Is Instructed to firmly
but gracefully decline It" Another page Is
given to the treasurer's report, which
shows a balance of $142.10 in the bank and
gives a list of expenditures that Include
$500 for salary, $45.20 for traveling ex
penses, $202 for printing, $65 for newspaper
clippings, fx for special services, $56 for
postage, $9.40 for typewriting and other
sundry items that indicate active propo
gandism, though on a page preceding It
refers to the suffrage movement as maklns;
no headway; as a wave (hat having been
more than fifty years In reaching Its crest
is now steadily receding.
In conclusion It says: "This report would
not be complete without a reference to
Mr. Abram 8. Hewitt, upon whose conserv
ative and wise Judgment the executive com
mittee relied. It was largely In consequence
of the reliance they placed upon his opinion
that the women who have been associated
together In this work were reluctantly In
duced to take upon themselves the prom
inent position and onerous duties In con
nection with It. It was he who said: 'It Is
fortunate that woman Is now Independent
of suffrage. Let her not become usbject to
Its servitude."
The committee appointed by the Woman's
club Is making an effort that should be sup
plemented by that of the other women's or
ganisations of the olty that have so fre
quently accepted the cfub's hospitality In
the past, to make Monday's matinee enter
tainment a success financially as well as
socially. During the lust few years, when
there has been so much In the way of
socloloclcal and charitable work to de
mand the attention and efforts of the club,
the complaint has frequently been heard I
that this was being done at the expense of
the social Influence of the organization;
that the qlub had become dull and unprofit
able to those who were not Inclined to the
philanthropic, and In proof of this there
was a material falling off in membership.
The present administration has set about
to mend this condition, and at the expense
of unselfish efTort on the part of specially
appointed committees, has given to the
club a number of educational and artlBtlc
treats that have been a credit to Omaha.
Mrs. Glelow's reading Monday afternoon is
another effort to this end. Some time ago
it was dt'flded that some entertr.Inment
should be provided instead of the New
Year's teceptlon, which, owing to the nu
merous other affairs on that day, was not
so well attended. In recognition of the
club's effort Mr. W. J. Burgess offered
the use of Boyd's theater for this occasion,
which will enable the women by charging
a small admission to outsiders to provide
this pleasure to others than club members,
and incidentally to follow the example of
other clubs of Its size and standing In the
line of entertainment. All seats remaining
after Monday noon will be offered to the
chopl teachers at 25 cents each.
The following standing committees, not
Included In the year book, are announced
by the executive committee of the Omaha
Woman's club:
Property Rights Mrs. I. Tt. Andrews,
chairman; Mrs. George Tllden. Mrs. Thomas
R. Ward, Mrs. Samuel Hawver, Mrs. A. K.

vtandard uftalnpt which t mo every dollar
of the bonds will be redeemeJ. We biiove
there are outstanding about $80,00.1 worth
of bonds. Mrs. Carse has some large Rifts
to reduce this amount and more in pro-
fvect, but the large ones will not do It un
ess they are re-enforced by the Rifts of the
humble. Our unions and women hv al
ways done nobly. We trust there will be
no dlnlnuitlon In the work Jurt now. When
the bonds are disposed of and we own a
controlling Interest In the stock, with ihm
magnificent renlnl that Is now accruing,
the trustees believe that the remainder of
I the debt can be comfortnbiv inanaK"il.
! However, did they not believe this, did they
see nereat netore them, they woul'l yet be
as unswervingly determined to rrtlre tin
bonds as they now are, and they would be
upheld by every Irver of honestv and up.
righteousness,. If from each union a tub.
scrlptlon paper was circulated, allowing
everyone in me community an oppirtunlty
to give even the small gif'ts, what a mag
nificent sum It would aggregate. Won't
you try It?
One of the Items of Interest to people In
this city and vicinity will be the opening of
an up-to-date book and stationery store by
William R. Matthews on or about. March 1.
In the Creighton block 122 South 15th street.
