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. There are two
brothers In society who were so notice

now one of the girls has announced her en

The renort comes in a roundabout way
that the marriage of Mr. Fred J.. Hill and
Miss Elisabeth Dufrene, both of Omaha,
took place at Reno, Nevada, last Wednes
day, June 10. Mr. Hill has been in dusi-
nesa here some time,, while Miss uuirene

tect of earlier days. Miss Dufrene and her
brother left for a trip to California some
weeks ago and were followed by Mr. Hill

was known for some tlm that the young
people were engaged, the news of an away-
from-home wedding comes as a surprise.

later one day last week, when after a

tion home. It happened that the bundles
were as ample In size as In variety, and as
with pockets bulging and arms piled high,
and she carrying a preserving kettle filled
with kitchen utensils, they walked frOm the
car to her home, they met an elderly ma
tron, a friend of his mothers. The lady
topped aa she recognized them and then
with astonishment depicted all over her
face, said: "Why, George, I thought the
wedding waa not to b until next Wednes
day!" : .
