AK-SAR-BEN BALL TI1E TALK
rpl Who Ware Thera DtbaU tba Affair
in Light tf Next Day.
SOME CRITICISM OF THE ARRANGEMENTS
Little Matters f Detail In Which the
kalahta Hope to Improve the
Service Before Another
ttneen In frowned.
Of course the Ak-Sar-Ben ball was the
premier event of the week and eclipsed
and overshadowed everything else so far
a the socKil life of the city la concerned
for being a function of more than local
Interest it Is naturally In a class of its
own and occasions preparation and antici
pation that attends no other affair of tha
year. .
All In all, Friday evening's gathering
was a real satisfaction to society, for the
local fashionable contingent was supple
mented by liberal repreeentatlvea of the
fashionables of other cities that gave to the
gathering an added charm and haa stimu
lated a fresh Interest in the ball that prom
ises very desirable results another year.
To be sure, aoclety waa not all down on
the floor, but the majority was and the
presence of the remainder In the gallery
attested a very gratifying curiosity, If noth
ing more.
The new floor was a real delight and
while it. was not all that could be wished
until the evening was half over. It at least
made dancing possible without peril to
dignity or limb, which la mora than could
be said of tha floor last year. And. then
there was the dressy feature of the oc
casion and ever ao many other features,
too, that give promise for the future. But
after recounting all of the pleasing fea
tures and the numerous Improvements,
those who were present will have to admit
that there are . still improvements that
might be made. First and most noticeable
of these waa the cramped entrance that oc
casioned delay and confusion upon arrival
and departure because there was not ade
quate room for the carriages to discharge
and receive their occupants. The cramped
and wholly Inadequate dressing rooms Is
another serious Inconvenience that oc
casioned general remark and It la to be
hoped this may be remedied another year.
Perbapa the most noticeable flaw In the
evening's arrangement waa the refresh
ments, which were far below that provided
on previous occaaiona, and It must be ad
mitted thla feature of the Ak-Sar-Ben ball
haa never been all that ona mlhgt have
reason to expect at such a function. There
waa also some confusion occasioned by the
numbering of the programs, which were
numbered according to the banda rather
than the dances, resulting in the sort of
awkwardness that Is hard to explain to the
one one should have danced with.
Evelyn, Dear: Oh, It was gorgeous of
course I mean the ball. Really, Evelyn,
I'm sure that no one but a girl can fully
appreciate it all. Of course, you know all
about how they do, the way the king and
queen and maids and all come in, and
how those queer-looking knlgbta march
about. Isn't Its a mercy that men are
confined to a conventional style of dress?
Really I should never have guessed that
it was possible for some of those men that
I know to make themselves look so ridic
ulous, but of course that's a part of the
ball. But the queen, Evelyn. She waa
lovely. Everybody Bald ao, even those who
qualified their admiration with that naaty
little criticism that aha waa "Just a bit
too youthful ' looking." . Of course, you
know just what women would be likely to
say that, but even they had to own that
the got through it beautifully, and that
the new American beauty velvet corona
tion mantle waa an immense improvement
over that old aeven-year-old blue one.
Tba gowna were perfectly gorgeous.
There were two on the floor that coet
nearly $1,000 each, and It waa whispered
about through the dressing room that be
cause of these nearly a dozen of the women
who had had new things made to wear that
night wouldn't wear them at all, but sat
up in the gallery didn't want them com
pared, Evelyn. Wasn't that a sweet spirit?
But then everybody knew why they were
up there, for the women talked about It
an .awful lot out In the dressing room.
And then there waa ever to much
grumbling about the crowd out there
Some of the women refused to come In
there at all, and when they found they
had to, they declared they would go back
home but they didn't. And while they
were all fussing about It and aaylng they
would aiay at home next year, another
woman came along and reminded them of
what they owed the ' occasion, and aald
some more abarp things about their lack
of public spirit, and then ahe aalled out
and they after her.
Really Evelyn, It'a no wonder It takes
the women ao long to get out of the dressing
room, there Is ao much of Interest there
Of, course, we girls don't care very much
STRANGER THAN FICTION.
A Remedy Which Haa Hevolatloalaed
the Treatment of Stomach Trochlea
The remedy Is not heralded as a wonder
ful discovery nor yet a secret patent medi
cine, neither la H claimed to cure anything
except dyspepsia. Indigestion and stomach
troubles with which nine out of ten suffer.
The remedy Is in the form of pleasant
tasting tablets or lozenges, containing vege
table and fruit essences, pure aseptic pepsin
(government test,) golden seal and diastase.
The tablets are aold by druggists under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Many
interesting experimenta to test tha digestive
power of Stuart's tablets show that one
grain of the active principle contained in
them la sufficient to thoroughly digest 3,000
grains of raw meat, egga and other whole
some food.
Stuart's Tablets do not act upon tba
bowels liko after-dinner pills and cheap
cathartics, which simply irritate and In
flatus tha inteatinea without having any ef
fect whatever In digesting food or curing
indignation.
If the stomach can be rested and assisted
in the work of digestion It will very soon
recover Its normal vigor, aa no organ la ao
much abused and overworked a'a tha stom
ach.
This is the secret, if there is any secret
of the remarkable auccess of Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets, a remedy practically un
known a few years ago and now the most
widely known of any treatment for atom
ach weakness.
Thla auccess haa been secured entirely
upon its merits aa a digestive pure and
simple because there can be no stomach
trouble if the food is promptly digested.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tableta act entirely on
ths food eaten, digesting it completely, so
that it ran be assimilated Into blood, nerve
and tissue. They cure dyspepsia, water
brash, aour etomach, gas and bloating after
meals, because they furnish the digestive
power which weak stomacha lack and unless
that lack U supplied it is useless to attempt
to cure by tha use of "tonics," "pills" and
cathartics which bavo absolutely no dtgee
tive power.
Btuart'a Dyspepsia Tablets can be found
at all drug stores and the regular use of
one or two of them after meals, will de
inonstrate their merit better than any
ether argument.
about ths kins, only the honor of dancing
with him, for ha M always una marrl-d
...... i -.u euuuih to be married anyway.
I think It la a real pity that thla fact stands
o In his way, for It seems too bad not to
ave people even Interested In hli Identity,
for really Evelyn, I didn't hear a doren
women wondering who he waa all last week.
whll; every other woman on met asked
who the queen was to be.

at The Bee office yesterday.
"From what I know of the candidate per
sonally and what I hear of the progress
of the campaign I believe John H. Mickey
will be elected governor of Nebraska by a
large majority. Until I moved to Bloom
field I was a resident of Osceola and for
many years Mr. Mickey's family physician.
Conaequently I know the man Intimately,
and can say that I have never known a
better citizen of this or any other atate. Mr.
Mickey baa always been first and foremost
in public movements for the betterment of
the community, and is just the kind of a
man this state needs as its chief execu
tive." ,
