It’s an economy move, and since the manufac turers have made such a wonderful imitation of bare legs with chiffon hose In nude shades the girls have de cided they can get away w'.th going without them and some are doing it without detection. Gabby wondered since It was pure ly a mater of economy whether ’’they" were doing It on the muny r links, but found to her surprise that stockingless golf only flourished at the Country club, with a venturesome foursome or two et Happy Hollow. EVERT woman, It Is said, cher ishes In her heart of hearts the Idea that she has talents as an Interior decorator, lying dormant, waiting th* spark of necessity to he kindled into flames of artist’s genius An Innocent enough delusion, and on# which has a masculine parallel, for Gabby wonders If there Is a sin gle man or rather a single married man who doesn’t helleve that, given a chance, he could out mllllner the milliner, selecting fascinating femi nine headgear? John U. Loomis but amplified the proof on Monday last, when he pre sented Mrs. Loomis with a brown felt cloche trimmed In ribbon clr# at a picnic given at Valley In honor of her birthday. He had bought It according to the best scientific methods, keeping In mind the color of his wife’s hair, her eyes and th# oval of her face. His methods were found to be of the soundest, for when the %at was ap piled to th# head for which it was Intended It proved to be enormouely becoming. Such Judge* of gladsome raiment as Mre. Francis Gaines and Mrs. Fred Daugherty, who were among the guests, pronounced It an "unmitigated success." ROMANCE that Is often dreamed about at weddings In regard to the maid of honor and best man Is to be realised with the announce ment to be made aeon of an engage ment of a well known Omaha girl and an Iowa man. This brunette was maid of honor at the wedding of her older slater two year* ago and the men whom she is to marry was beet man. They had never met before the arrival of the attendant* for th* wed ding ceremony. The man In question Is a fraternity brother of the Bister's hushand and his closest friend. Hlnce the wedding the former best rnan has been a fre quent visitor here. Although the sister moved to the enst with her husband, he still carne to Omaha to eoe th* maid of honor. Now the wed ding of this young couple Is to take place, end perhaps th# situation will be reversed, the older slater and her husband being the attendants Instead of principal*. On the same day that the announce ment of this Omaha girl la to be made i sorority sister, a brunette, will also announce her engagement. Both Slrls attended the University of Ne braska. The first Omaha girl also attended a college for women In the south, HOW would you like to be re ferred to as a lemon rinse. Not very well, Gabby opines, but nevertheless If you've ever had one you're Just as liable to be called one as not. Some of us who fancy ourselves the pets of the beauty dsns will bs rudely surprised when the truth gets out. What one of us doesn't enter tain the harmless fancy that the operator will remember the long, slender Angers Into which she Is so deftly coercing a lotion following a manicure, and that the one who gave our facial won't sigh enviously after we leave over the lovely long curling lashes that almost got In her way as shs worked. Tea, those are pretty fancies, but they’re doomed, for Gabby overheard two workers at the end of a busy afternoon the other day. And what did she ha&r? No cooing ecstasies over the lovely complexion which Mrs. 8. Is hiding under ths conventional rouge. No comments on Mrs. B.’s wealth of hair, you may bs aura. In their little chat Mrs. B. la not only denied these tribute*, but sven her Identity. All ehs can possibly get le dishon orable mention. "flay did you ess my Arst wavs today? Fussy? I'll say. lisa Ats about whether I'd burn'sr. And wig gled till I wanted to." "Well, that's nothing," ths ether countered, "I had a whtny Clay to day, 8ha never had one before. Just knew It would do her good when she came In, but kept wanting to get It off it was drawing so after I'd started. Of course It cracked all up before It was time.” "How was your Egg Shampoo?” "Mean as anything. I had tc, give the Lemon Rinas that came next all kinds of taffy or I wouldn't have mads a cent all morning." ATOUNO man of our town, with a New Tork and Parisian past, took to the “trams" re cently as a convenient means of loco motion. Ths poor fellow had ridden In so few of them himself that he probably regarded them as a negli gible factor In others lives.
