Brides and brides to be continue the cen tral figures -of locul society. Never before have there been ao many notable weddings bunched so closely together, nor such pro fuse entertaining for the principal partici pants. The announcement by Mrs.' Herman Kountce of the engagement of .her daugh ter, M1m Ulla Cotton, and Mr. Fred A. Nash, second, will now.be the topic of dls cusxlon In exclusive circles. This engage ment has been anticipated by the knowing ones In their Immediate set for some little time and the standing of the two families thus to be allied will lead people to expect brilliant social event' when the wedding takes place. i ""' f Here is a set of don'ts laid down by an xperienced writer in one of the illustrated weeklies for the' guidance of women who may be wrestling with the problem "How to keep husbands home nights." Of course auch rules are entirely Irrelevant. and Im material so far as Omaha married menders concerned for who, would even dare hint that any of these double-harness angels ever goes out o'hlghts without taking his own wife along but they ..may come In handy to help' start 'ail these new June brides out right on the roadway to matri monial happiness. Read them and cut them out and paste them up In the pantry for future reference: Don't make the evening repast a conces sional for household troubles. He has trou bles of his own. You may be one of them. Lion't be the last to acknowledge his merits. Men love flattery as women do finery. Unn't put htm on the fire escape to smoke. Suppose the draperies do get full of fumes. Home day you may hunger for the smell of them. Don't wear a chip on your shoulder. An ounce of forgiveness Is worth a pound of pride. Qlv in. You Tin have your way when he is not looking. Don't be ashamed to proclaim your love for-him. . Tell him often, and demand a response. It gives htm something to think about. Don't antagonize his men friends. They may he better than they look. Don't travel wide apart or the chains will cut. The only way not to feel them is to keep close together.- Don't cook unless you know how. When his digestion goes, reform, administration Is dead. Don't ask him for money; make him offer it. You knbw the way. If you do lint, you should. . Be prudent, and as thrifty as you can. Men are attracted by ethereal means, but held by material methods. Wise economy, however, requires great tact. There, la no economy In that course which leaves your linens limp, your personality shoddy or your home segime conducted on poor house ra tions. Don't listen to outside criticism, whether of friends or relatlves-ln-law. Don't Attach too much importance to those tittle tiffs which may be the result of outside worries or Indigestion. Make al lowances for his being human. Give him the benefit of every doubt. If you put a pint man In a quart measure, ha will grow up to it.. -Don't coanemn these rules the first time they fall. They are good. The only ques tion Is, are we good enough to persevere witn mesa-until we get resuiisr , .,, Peopluwtth discerning eyes say they aee a whole, fluck of storks circling over "the homes .of. -selected members of Omaha's younger married set. . Much talk is ' In circulation about the alleged disruption of the engagement of an estimable, young, man. with a. society record in Omaha now wearing Uncle Sam's uniform and shouiderstrapa, and a rich young Chicago widow who also lived In Omaha In her girlhood days and more re cently has been attracting more than ordl nary attention among the titled nobility of European .courts..' Everybody 'who ought to know all about It Insists that he or she knows absolutely nothing about It, but the fact remains - that - although the - engage ment was (announced fully a year ago there are as yet no signs of approaching nuptials. - The "heroine of one of our June weddings was the recipient of. eighteen . pairs of stockings at a hosiery shower. Evelyn Dear: After all these long months It's such a comfort to write things to some body, forhere are things that one simply can t keepv.to one's self. Of course. It Isn't nice to 'gossip about people one' knows. but there - Is nothing else to talk about Just now, there Is so much going on, wed dings and things, you know. 'Everybody Is getting married or engaged and there Is something about weddings that Inspires one to notice, and recall things. - And that's the worst of It, especially for one who has been away as long as I have,' for half the engagements that were . suspected or ex pected last fall didn't turn out at all and It'a awfully awkward to ask a person about someone whom you 'have reason to suppose she know a lot about and get a cold stare in reply. . . That's what happened me, Evelyn.. You see, we were at a linen shower the other day and of course every body was talking about the brides and In cidentally the men, when seeing new diamond ring on Margaret's hand and remembering . how - daffy ahe and B. B. were about each other last. fall, I said to Harriet, "How per fectly dear of B. B, to get Margaret that atunning Ytng. when everybody knows that he allowed Julia to' keep' the lovely en gagement solitaire he gave her." I had half finished another comment, when I no tlced that ahe was glaring at me and be fore I really came to. she had gathered up her napkins and flounced across the room to another chair. If you will believe me, Evelyn, the very next thing I hearf was that Harriet ana H. u. are going to be married this very month. And that re minds me, Evelyn dear, there have been half a doten slips.
