Work on Photoplay of
Country Club Set Starts
in Two Weeks
Mrs. Lawrence Brinker and Mrs. Jack Webster have been chosen by
J. T. Stewart II, as feminine leads for his photoplay, which he will produce
and which Country club will present.
Opposite these attractive young matrons will play Messrs. Jack Sum
mers, Robert Garrett and Henry Bohllng. One artist is still to be selected,
but it Is understood that no blondes need apply, for the delicate coloring
of both Mrs. Brinker and Mrs. Webster requires the darker charms of
2 brown eyes and raven tresses as a foil.
* The vehicle for this "galaxy of stars” is still in its infancy, so the parts
have not been assigned. The play, however, is expected to reach It’s ma
turity In two weeks under the careful hands of its author, Mr. Stewart, and
his collaborator, Louis Bostwlck. It is said that competition is keen among
the handsome gentlemen selected, for the part of heavy villain, for which
they claim, they nil have an acting proclivity.
The Garrett’s German police dog is to he one of several prominent
canines. Another will be Miss Louise Dietz’s "pound-and-a-half hound," ac
cording to Mr. Stewart.
There will be several lavish Interior settings made In Omaha's most beau’
tiful new homes, and several cut-ins of Omahans at the polo matches, with
\ glimpse of a polo game of the now well-known Otnnha brand.
Work on the picture will begin the last week In July.

Dear Martha Allen: I am a young
man of 19 and am considered good
looking. I am In love with a girl one
year younger than myself, but many
tell me that she had the reputation
of getting everything she can out of
you. She claims to care for me.
Would it be right to believe the things
told about her? GEORGE.
It never pays to listen to idle gos
sip. Why not watch carefully when
you are with this girl and decide a
few things about her yourself. If
she doesn’t work you for everything
she sees perhaps that is proof that
she cares for you. Sometimes girls
change their tactics when they care
for a certain man. I wouldn't judge
too harshly until there Is good rea
son to do so.
Dear Martha Allen: I am anxious
to know If some certain boys care
for me. They go with other girls, but
always ask me to their picnics and
parties. Is there any way to make
them care enough for me to go with
me a good part of the time?
RUTH.
It Is very evident, Ruth, that these
boys consider you worth knowing or
elso they wouldn't Invite you to their
afTairs. But it doesn’t pay to push
any attentions upon them. If you
are too anxious they are sure to
drop you. Continue the good friend

tions entirely to them.

4iMy Husband’s Love”
v_:-—-'
Why Madge Was Nervous As She
Talked With Mrs. Marks.
With a heroic effort I controlled my
twitching lips at Mrs. Marks' naive
Interest in Harry Underwood, and
answered her question in casual, im
personal fashion.
“Oh, yes, I saw the gentleman who
called. He's talking to Mrs. Under
wood now. Thank you for letting
him in.”
iSne giggled consciously.
“Don't thank me.” she burbled.
"I'd stand on one foot at that door
for a week on the chance of eeein’
anything as nifty ae that gent. Gee,
but he’s got ’em all left at the post
an’ is trotting down the course all
by himself! I'd leave my happy home
for him any day. And I'll bet you’re
goin' out somewhere with him—
you're all dressed up to kill. Well,
some folks have all the luck. I
don't blame you, though. I'd have
a lark once in a while by myself if
I were you.”
I wondered if her stressing of the
pronouns was unconscious, or if she
meant me to know that she thought
1 was entitled to an occasional din
ner or dance with a handsome man
because of Dicky’s too-patent admira
tion of Mollie Fawcett. For the in
stant the thought outweighed the
crudity of her comment. Then be
fore my indignation had a chance to
betray itself in either my face or
my voice, I put it down with a firm
hand.
Mrs. Marks had no more Idea of
the enormity of her impudence than
a Hottentot would have of his lack
of meal time manners, were he sud
denly set down to a Fifth Avenue
dinner-table. Besides, I did not
know in just what relation she stood
to Lillian in the investigation my
friend was carrying on concerning
the mysterious furs. It behooved
me to walk warily, lest, as Lillian
herself would term it, I “upset fhe
lentils.”
With a non-committal little smile
I changed the subject.
“I hope yoil have been well since
I saw you,” I said.
“I can't complain.” She used the
time-honored formula as if it were
the most original sentence ever ut
tered. “My body's all right,” she
went on with a lugubrious sigh,
“but I've been awful upset In my
mind. If It hadn’t been for your
friend, Mis’ Fnderwood, I think I’d
have been good picking for a squir
rel by this time.”
I frantically wished that Lillian
would summon me, or that anything
would happen to interrppt us. In
ignorance of the real situation, I
was so afraid of mixing batters
up that I dared make only the most
commonplace of comments. I
blushed for my own banality as I
murmured, “Is that so? I am so
sorry,” and hoped that my conts
nance did not betray my joy at Lil
lian's entrance.
“Oh, are you here?" There was
an edge In her voice ae she ad
dressed Mrs. Marks, which I think
even that thick-skinned lady per
ceived.
At any rate she reddened, and con
fusedly mumbling about “something
In her oven,” she withdrew precipi
tately.
“Have You a Trunk?”
Lillian wrasted no comment upon
her exit.
“I'll stay here for a little,” she
said. “You're all ready, but your
coat and scarf, aren't you? Good!
Harry has a taxi eating its head off
downstairs.”
I moved toward the door at her
hint, but barely had reached the hall
before she was at my side.
“I certainly am getting forgetful in
my old age,” she said. “I meant to
ask you before—have you a trunk
In the basement storeroom?”
I tried not to stare at her as I
gave an affirmative answer.
“Have you many things in it?”
“Very few. It is almost empty.
“Good. Have you any objection
to lending it to me for a few days,
and may I empty it, and put the
contents up here in the apartment
somewhere?”
I smiled affectionately at her.
“You know if you wished to rig
up a trapeze out of the trunk and

attach it to the chandelier, I
shouldn’t object.”
"I know it, you blessed Kiri!” she
returned. "And you'll know ail
about it very soon. Another thing.
How convenient a memory has your
Janitor? He and his wife seem de
voted to you."
"You would like them to forget the
incident of bringing the trunk up to
you?"
"Correct, oh, clairvoyant creature!
Also to close his eyes that I am go
ing to take tho trunk away with
me on a taxi. Can It be managed?”
"I am sure it can," I said slowly,
and I saw Lillian dart a quick glance
at me.
"You won't need to ask him," she
said. "Just take me downstairs, and
vouch for me. He is very pleasant
to me, but his manner plainly shows
that he considers there is no head to
the table when the Douglas Is
away. Come on down now before
you go out."
She turned back to the kitchen
door, opened It, extracted the key
and with a reassuring promise to
Mamie that she would be back within
five minutes, she locked the door
from the outside and put the key
into her purse.
