They vmted in England, France, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, Austria, Hungary and Uer " ""Mrs. Howell enjoyed'mort a trip through the Austrian Tyrol It was gorgeous day, she id, and the colorings were wonderful. Mrs. Howell had bee in Switzerland belore but not in the Tyrol. She is a lover of the out-of-doors, so much so that she begrudged every minute spent in the shops of 1'aris, where the average traveler is usually strongly attracted. Prices of many thiiiR were marvelously low she found. Dress goods were less In price than thev are here, but in many cases were of Inferior quality. The M per cent duty added to purchases, makes them less of a bargain than they seem at first flash. Berlin and Dreden, here she had been before, were of especial inter est to Mrs. Howell. Dresden, beautiful on the Elbe, she found still medieval, not commercial, not modern like Rerlin. The orchestras in the music centers abroad are perfect, according to Mrs Howell. She saw Lohengrin in Berlin and a, beautiful performance of "Carmen" in Vienna. The only regret of her trip, is that she was away when the Tuesday Musical club, of which she has been president, and is a member, presented the Scotti Opera company..- M,rs. C W. Axtell sent her clippings about tj opera which reached herein Rotterdam. Enka Morini, who appears here December 8, under Tuesday Musical auspices, was sailing from Europe about the time the Howells left. For Bride Elect ' Mrs. N. S.

Breakfast Manners Show the Real Person They say that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link; and if this truth applies to the r' -lin of manners, then we are no bcU-T bred than we would indicate by the way we behave at breakfast in the bosom of our own family. For every one's breakfast manners are his worst and a good many people forget that manners, like charity, begin at home. There are some otherwise very well mannered persons who simply can't show much courtesy or consideration at breakfast. They are so constituted physically ; that they come to breakfast in a so.rt-of a daze and don't, really . entirely awake from their night's slumbers till after the morning meal.-; From such persons an extra effort is re quired jf they would strengthen this weakest link. The Morning Greeting. In homes where attention is . paid to the cultivation of good manners children are taught to greet their parents at the breakfast table with a "Good morning, father," or "Good morning, mother. Needless to say the parents so addressed should answer as courteously to the child. There is nothing more discourag ing to the cultivation of good man ners than the appearance at break fast of members of the family in sloppy attire and morning disarray. To be sure, among women of wealth and leisure whose negligee attire is as fastidiously attended to as is their dress for the opera, albeit more easily donned the practice prevails of appearing at the break fast table in matinee attire, and they even wear dainty lace caps if they choose. ; " " But for the woman of many servants to do this is one thing, and for the woman who needs must be down stairs in the kitchen betimes" to prepare the breakfast it is' quite another thing. If there is one thing more than another that tends to dis courage the cultivation of courteous family breakfast manners it is the appearance at that time of a -carelessly dopned eiderdown breakfast jacket or other negligee that has been doing service in the kitchen and a cap that indicates all too plainly that it is donned to conceal unkempt locks. For the woman who must do her own breakfast get ting the only correct dress for break fast is a neat house dress. . As a Guest. - Even the woman of leisure enough to do justice to a negligee breakfast attire would not think of appearing thus dressed were she the guest at another person's house where break fast was served with the- entire family. A possible exception might be made in favor of a woman of very mature years who appeared well in this kind of apparel. But for an old er woman to ' appear without her equipment of coiffure is certainly a mistake. Her hair should be as neat ly if .not as elaborately arranged as for dinner. Save with very intimate friends the hostess does not appear in breakfast .negligee when there arc guests in her house. The young girl never is allowed the privilege even in the intimacy of her own family circle. Say You Slept Well. One thing that you should re member when a guest at a friend's breakfast board. You will probably be asked "how, you passed the night. Now, don't imagine for an instant that this is to be taken as an in vitation for you to tell just how much or how little you slept. If you had odd dreams occasioned by sleeping in a strange bed you had better keep them to yourself. A sim ple "Very well, thank you," is quite enough answer to this courteous in quiry. Utts.4, UiULUiUL TJFfi BEE: OMAHA. SUNDAY. NOVEMBER 13. 1921. Jewels That Suit the 4 i I Face fcv very bit of Jewelry nowadays Is chosen with' special regard to the frock', and face with which it Is to be worn, to that It may complete a pic ture. Fortunately the day when only the intrinsic, worth of ont'i Jewels was considered is gone. . ( , Nowadays about the only time we quote dollars and cents when we con sider' jewelry is when 'a holdup man or burglar walks olt with our heir looms; or when a moving picture actress still in her struggling days gains some publicity leaving a $50, 000 necklace in a taxicab. But our eyes 'are trained nowadays to seek the type of jewelry that goes with the frock and face of its wearer. That doesn't mean, of course, that sometimes nothing is so effective as diamonds and pearls. But it does mean that often a cheap gewgaw gives far more pleasure to the eye than a jewel that might cost a king's ransom more than' that, for one imagines .that kings', ransoms have gone down with the exchange rates of rubles and marks. Many Headdresses. The Paris openings have brought out some Interesting things so far as jewelry is concerned. One is that headdresses of all sorts will be worn. How far American women will take them up nobody knows. But at all events they are in good style and have already been experimented with and seem to be gaining ground. In France this year there is a new type of nouveau riche, people who made their money in the war. They seem to exceed the well known and much maligned American, Mr. and Mrs. Newly Rich, in their desire for display and ostentation. They, of course, overdo the matter of costly headdresses. But, on the other hand, the most conservative of the well dressed wo men are going in for headdresses of some sort or other. Young girls choose very often strands of crystals of white and color to band about their brows. Then there are jeweled fillets of Grecian type that are also worn by the young. For the older woman, and the younger woman, too, for she always adopts what she thinks is too old for her in these days, there, are elaborate feathered headdresses that would have graced the locks of a storied princess of the ancient Orient. Towering ostrich feathers are held to the head with bands of jeweled net or with a twisted rope of pearl embroidered tissue. The scarf that is embroidered In sequins or pearl and crystal beads or that is made of finest gauze brocaded in velvet figures is sometimes wound about the head and tied over one ear, or wound about and fastened under a jeweled ornament with pendant tas sels to the shoulder. Earrings Everywhere. Earrings are quite as widespread in France as are headdresses. ' And here, again, does the desire for something appropriate overcome the desire for something intrinsically val uable. For many of the earrings are made of jet, and more of onyx. Onyx, indeed, is tremendously in the vogue. The big circle earrings are perhaps considered ; smartest at the moment. These are sometimes made of beaten gold, like gipsy earrings, and some times of onyx or some other stone. The new frocks still make use of stones of various sorts for trimming. That odd and distinctive new second empire neckline that consists of a band about the top of the arms and across the neck, straight around the figure that off the shoulder line from which a frock cut in inverted points or draped in arch shaped in verted Us is hung, makes use of rhinestones or other crystals for the band that is the keynote of the frock. The Aspiration for Beauty Every right-minded, thought ful person knows that the big gest influence in right living is centered in the home.: The most wholesome' en vironment for growing children should be the home life. The home must be made at tractive so that its charms may be a fit setting for the family activities. . Nothing adds more to the beauty of the home than the piano. The ideal is the beau tiful little grand piano. The Brambach Baby Grand it the final aspiration for beauty in the heme , Durably Built Classic Design Exauisite Tone Full Guarantee ,'Pric The Brambach requires no more room than an upright.

There it doesn't seem to take a much more active part in life than' the pug dog or the high wheeled bi cycle. Everything almost is kasha. that cashmere finished material Which puts the cash in kasha and takes it away from us. Callot, for example, substitutes for her navy serge frock of last year a kasha in that same tint exposed to the same allover embroidery in the same colorings. With this she uses a squirrel collar crossed fichu fash ion, and adding a little more expense to a costly model. Over here, however, we clintr to our provincial navy serges and Poiret twills. Kecogmzing our fidelity, some of thhe French designers have sent for our guidance a number of stunning models in these fabrics. many of which are trimmed with braid. It will probably be a long time, in fact, before the averasre American woman foregoes her al legiance to what has assumed almost the dignity of a national costume. We are showing today a stunning model of black satin and navy Poiret twill embroidered m silver and ,, na tional blue. Personals Mrs. F, F. Hammond of Fed Oak, it visiting Mrs. L, M. Barrit.

There is no more effective way for amateurs intent on tableaux vi vants to get distinguished results than In living pictures, says the De cember "Designer." You are work ing in only one medium, so to speak, and appealing to only one sense, that of sight In even the simplest play you have the chance of awkward motions, bad inflections all the ridiculous marks of amateurishness. But with tableaux vivants you can paint your picture beforehand just as you want it and be sure that the first night won't be frightfully dif ferent from the dress rehearsal. Think more of the groups and poses than you do ot the teatures. lixperunent with your lighting till you get the best possible effect Sheet-tin makes a good reflector for ordinary electric light bulbs. Motor headlights make excellent "spot" or Rood lights. Have a big frame for your tableau and be sure to hang gauze across the frame to soften the picture.
