Ai a calm Invariably follows an espe
cially active Reason, society has taken a
long breath and settled down to rest a
bit after the gayety of the holidays until
something else happens. The outlook for
this week Is more promising of rest than
excitement, far, aside from the club meet
ings and a very few things of small con
sequence, there Is nothing on the calen
dar and, unless tomorrow's mall brings In
vitations for. something of which nobody
has heard of a yet, the theater will afford
society Its chief entertainment. But so
ciety can afford to rest awhile, for It has
been on the go morning, noon and night
for the last three weeks, and the fact Is
that not a few will welcome an oppor
tunity to slip off for a fortnight or so and
rest up a bit. The excursions to Florida
and the gulf or the California resorts have
already commenced and a score or more
of the fashionables are out of town now
seeking a change at least, If not a rest,
In the south among those places where
the season Is Just about to open.
The college folks have all been safely
bundled off to school again, and from now
on until the Easter vacation the field is
clear for the debutantes, the brides ana
their elders.
A prominent society woman Is declining
Invitations this week, and the prospects
are that she will continue to do ao for
several weeks to come, thnnks to a badly
sprained ankle sustained at the roller
skntlng rink. Years ago when the old
Mnk on Capitol avenue was a favorite
resort among the fashionables, the lady
was the envy of the debutante set for her
graceful skating, but she hns not skated
alnce then. Seeing lier little daughter on
the floor the other afternoon revived the
old-time delight, and on returning home she
telephoned some of the old skaters nnd
got up a party to go "rolling" that even
Ins. Naturally, all looked to her to lead
off, but, alas, with the second stroke she
fell and the sprained ankle was the result.
But her misfortune has not entirely fright
ened1 off her companions, for not a few of
the former enthusiasts have been frequent
patrons of the rink, and, judging from ap
pearances, have enjoyed It aa keenly as
they ever did, even though they are somu
ajventeen or eighteen years older.
The recent visit of the Yale Glee, Mando
lin and Banjo clubs recalls other college
musical clubs that have visited Omaha at
various times In past years, and the fact
that Omaha has not a few college men who
lias Penetrated
From a small beginning in the
simplest form, Cuticura Remedies
have become the greatest curatives
of their time, and, in fact, of all
time, for nowhere in the history
of medicine is to be found another
approaching them in popularity
and sale.
In every clime and with every
people Cuticura Soap, Ointment,
and Pills have met with the same
reception. They have conquered
the world. By rail and sail, by
caravan, by saddle, and on the
backs of human beings, they have
made their way to the farthermost
parts of the earth.
. There seems to be something
about Cuticura Remedies which
Invites the confidence of mankind.
National peculiarities European,
Eastern, and Asiatic teachings and
traditions seem to have no adverse
influence upon them. Hence they
are to be found in every part of
the world, and the sight of them
in the bazaars and native shops of
foreign lands has inspired the
American traveller with patriotic
emotions second only to those
produced by the contemplation of
his country's flag.

Mrs
li ai
Sold Wherever Civilization
have been members of such organisations;
In fact, some of them have been more than
mere members.' One of the long to be
remembered social affairs of tha winter
of was the concert given by the mem
bers of tha Princeton Banjo and Olea club.
It was during their holiday tour and when
they reached Omaha they were given a
royal reception. There were two Omaha
men In the Olee club, Mr. Herbert Rogers
and Mr. Will Rogers, the former being Its
president. In the afternoon the club was
entertained at tea at Happy Hollow, the
home of Mr. and Mrs. J. N. H. Patrick,
and the concert In the evening was a
brilliant affair. Booth Tarklngton was the
star comedian of the club and a funny
little story Is told of It was said that It
was a girl who at every city where the
club appeared had a great bouquet pre
sented to Mr. Tarklngton Jiist as he stepped
forward to" sing. The rumor made good
In Omaha and the huge bunch of flowers
was handed to the soloist on lime. He
was terribly embarassed, at least he ap
peared to be. and swinging the flowers
behind him, held them there while he sang.
That evening after the concert a ball for
the men was given at the Millard hotel.
The next year, during the holidays, the
Tale club visited Omaha, and they came
again the next year, of course, during the
holidays. Mr. Luther and Mr. Herman
Kountze were both members, Mr. Luther
Kountte being president of the Banjo club
and Mr. Herman Kountse playing a guitar
with the Mandolin club. Mrs. Merldeth
Nicholson, then Miss Jeannle Kountze, gave
an elaborate luncheon at Forest Hill In
the club's honor, and later there was a re
ception at Happy Hollow. The following
year there was a ball given for them, at
the Millard hotel.
Among the other Omaha men who have
been members of college musical clubs are
Mr. Runnel Wllber. who was out with the'
Williams college men, and Mr. Nat Brig
ham, who was a member of the Harvard
Glee club. Mr. Stanley Rosewater is a
member of this year's glee club of Ann
Arbor, which has Just concluded a very
successful tour, and Mr. Frank Wllhelm Is
one of the first tenors with this year's
Yale Glee club, which recently visited
Omaha. And then there Is 'another man
whose recognized talent should hardly be
lost sight of, though opportunity was never
afforded for an Omaha audience to enjoy It.
That Is Mr. Arthur Crittenden Smith. He
was a star member of the Hasty Pudding
club, the dramatic organization of Har
vard, and one very attractive Omaha
woman relates that upon one of her visits
to Cambridge she was unable to catch even
so much as a glimpse of him, aven though
It was during a brief vacation, because he
was so much engaged with rehearsal.

The announcement of the engagement of
Mr. Thomas Crelgh to Miss Gertrude
O'Nell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph
O'Nell, of St. Louts, which was made last
week, has occasioned general congratula
tion from Mr. Crelgh's many Omaha
friends, even though It was not exactly a
surprise.

and Miss Iva Maud Smith, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. William M. Smith, was

From a woman's point of view. Inde
pendent of the benefits of the programs
themselves, the recent meeting of the Ne
braska State Teachers' association held In
Omaha was one of the most profitable
gatherings ever held In the state. It has
been several years since the women of
Omaha have been privileged to act as
hostess to so large a number of women
from the state, and it Is safe to say that
out of this meeting has grown a closer
sympathy and a better understanding than
has prevailed In the past. There has not
infrequently been evidence of feeling
among the teachers and club women, too,
of the smaller towns and country that the
women of the city schools and clubs felt a
bit superior owing to their advantages,
and It was to overcome this feeling that
especial effort was mads during the holi
days. The city teachers have frequently been
charged with indifference to the other
teachers because they have not more often
attended meetings held In the smaller
towns, but this is really unjust, for there
are several good reasons why they have
not done so, and chief among these Is that
they cannot afford It. The fact Is that the
city teacher has more demsnds upon her.
In proportion to her income, than the coun
try teacher, and everything has to be taken
into account by her and she has to plan as
carefully as the country teacher for the
things from which she will derive the
greatest benefit. The smaller towns afford
little aside from the actual meetings them
selves, ajid the city teacher can usually
get their equivalent In benefits at home,
without the addlUonal expense.. This Is
certainly a good reason and one that
should be considered not only by the teach
ers, but the other women of the state as
well.
Lincoln has a City Improvement society
that is really doing things. The society
held its annual meeUng Thursday morning
to hear reports of work accomplished dur
ing the year, and while they have failed to 1
secure many ,of the things they worked
for, partially through the unfriendliness of
the mayor and sidewalk Inspector, there
have still been results of which they are
proud.' Among these Is the furnishing of
funds to place street signs over a good part
of the city. The society has 202 active
members and during the year haa received
3675 from various sources.
The board of directors of the Creche has
arranged for a series of benefits for that
institution that promise to h: -s a promi
nent place on the social cn..idar. Mr.
Edgar C. Abbott of Boston has been en
gaged for a series of three Shakespearean
lecture recitals January 20, 26 and 27. under
the auspices of tho Creche board. The
first will be given at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. E. A. Cudahy, "Othello" to be the
play; the seobnd, "The Merchant of Ven
ice," at the residence of Mr. and Mrs.
Herman Kountze, and tha third, "Julius
Caesar," at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J.
E. Baum. The cause for which the re
citals are to be given Is too well known
to need explanation, tha Creche being the
only day nursery In Omaha, "
The musical department of the Woman's
club will present the postponed opera pro
gram Friday morning, January 13, at 10
o'clock at the First Congregational church.
Miss Lillian O'Connell, former extension
secretary of the Young Woman's Christian
association, spent the holidays in Omaha.
It was Miss O'Connell who onened th vn-ir
at South Branch and in the factories, which
nas grown to be so Important a branch
of the association work.
COMMERCIAL CLUB'S NEW RULE
Restriction Placed on Holding; Meet
In are of Other Organisations
In Club Rooms.
The Commercial club will be cnnrfiiti
in future under a slightly different policy
in regard to outside organisations which
use its rooms for meetings. No club, so
ciety or miscellaneous meetings hereafter
will be allowed in the club unless the
organization which wishes the privelege
includes in its membership 75 per cent of
Commercial club members.
"This Is not to be taken as In anv wv
showing lack of hospitality to these organi
sations," said Commissioner McVann. "It
is simply the club Is growing to such an
extern, ana nas now so large an 'active
membership that the rooms we hnv h.
are necessary for our own members. Here-
arter no meetings will be allowed In the
nssembly room and the billiard room
these places will always be accessable to
merr.Ders. "
The Real Estate exchange will he h
most prominent association which this rule
snorts, ine exchange, however, has al
most the number of club members which
the new rule requires and it Is not doubted
the new signatures will be acquired. The
Omaha Bar association has also held
Ings monthly In the club and the Douglas
uuniy jueaicai society will have to find
new quarters for Its week I v nth.ri...
The Travelers' Protective association comes
unaer tne rule. The Omaha Business Men's
association la not affected, as its members
are practically all members of the Com
mercial ciuo. Various church clubs have
met for luncheon gatherings at varying
Intervals and these will also fall within
the restriction.
JACKSONIANS WILL BANQUET
Omaha Faithful Intend to Have Their
Celebration Nest Satordar
Evening;.
Nothing will be lost by waiting if the
present plans are carried out regarding the
much postponed Jacksonlan club banquet.
The plans are like wine, they Improve with
age. No speakers have been secured yet,
but the members are losing no sleep over
this fact. It was the intention lo have tha
responses at the banquet made by political
stars of the first magnitude in the demo
cratic Armament.
"If we can't get the luminaries ws
planned to have at first.'' said E. P. Berry
man, the secretary of the club, last even
ing, "we will get speakers who will, we are
sure, make Just as bright a showing so far
as oratory goes. It wasn't so much the ora
tory, though, ns the men," continued the
speaker. "We did hope to have Bryan and
some of the governors of other states, but
we were disappointed for reasons that ars
apparent. The governors ars having their
Inaugurals Just now, and for this reason It
is rut of the question to have them here.

gural on Monday. Then there Is Governor
Johnson of Minnesota. We expected to
have him, but he was inaugurated on
Thursday. Bryan is in demand everywhere
to speak at Jacksonlan clubs and at In
augurals, and this has prevented him from
being with us at this time. We have been
disappointed so much that we have decided
to depend upon the state for our speakers.
We have not decided on any one as yet, but
I expect that we will know In a few days
who the speakers will be.
"I expect now that the banquet will be
pulled off next Saturday evening. The af
fair will lose nothing In the way of luster
by these delays. We propose to make up
for the disappointments by elaborating on
the matter of the details. The affair will
be held at the Paxton hotel and the acces
sories will be Just as attractive as money
can make them. I can't say as to the num
ber of covers we will have. We have had
as high as 600 at these functions. Frank
Weaver, the president of the club. Is look
ing after the details and I can say that this
In Itself is assurance that they will be well
looked after."
The details of the banquet were discussed
at some length, last evening, but no con
clusion was reached with regard to tha
speakers. The general sentiment waa
against postponing the event longer than
next Saturday evening, and It Is highly
probable that it will occur at that time.
Last evening the club Inducted the newly
elected officers. There was no formality.
All of the officers hold over with the excep
tion of the treasurer, John A. Rlne, Mr.
Herryman is of the opinion that the details
of the function will be definitely settled on
Monday evening.
Maccabees!
Omaha tent No. 75, Knights of the Mac

. CATARRH OF THE STOMACH
, J
A Pleasant, Simple, bat Safe and
Effectual tare for It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes with sour or watery risings, a
formation of gases, causing pressure on
the heart and lungs and difficult breathing,
headaches, fickle appetite, nervousness
and a general played out, languid feeling.
There Is often a foul taste In the mouth,
coated tongue, and If the Interior of the
stomach could be seen it would show a
slimy, inflamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble is found in a treatment which
causes tha food to be readily, thoroughly
digested before it has time to ferment
and Irritate the delicate mucuous surfaces
of the stomach. To secure a prompt and
healthy digestion is the one necessary
thing to do and when normal digestion is
secured the catarrhal condition will have
disappeared.
According to Dr. Harlanson, the safest
and best treatment la to use after each
meal a tablet, composed of Diastase,
Aseptlo Pepsin, a little Nux, Golden Seal
and fruit acids. These tablets can now
be found at all drug stores under the name
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not
being a patent medicine can be used with
perfect safety snd assurance that healthy
appetlta and thorough digestion will follow
their regular use after, meals.
Mr. R. S. Workman, Chicago, 111., writes:
"Catarrh is a local condition resulting
from a neglected cold In the head, whereby
the lining membrane of tha nose becomes
inflamed and the poisonous discharge
therefrom passing backward Into the throat
reaches the stomach, this producing ca
tarrh of the stomach. Medical authorities
prescribed for ma for three years for
catarrh of stomach without cure, but to
day I am the happiest of men after using
only one box of Stuart's Dypepsla Tablets.
I cannot find appropriate words to express
my good feeling. I have found flesh, appe
tite and sound rest from their use."
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
preparation as well as the simplest and
most convenient remedy for any form of
Indigestion, catarrh of stomach, biliousness,
sour' stomach, heart burn and bloating
