All things are so susceptible to change;
Old scenes, old friends, old times, glr

Bo subtly that we never think It strange
When what we prized is shifted from our
view!
There's change In customs, mannera, even
Aa clays 'pans Into months, and montha to

Change rules the earth, its trlbea and na

Change even guides the movements of the
spheres!
Change, all-controlling, resourceful and

Perhaps it Is only by comparison with
the crush of the holidays, but for some
reason the last week was quiet. At least,
that is what the fashionables had. to say
for It, notwithstanding the fact that there
was something down on the engagement
I tnr n.arlv .r.rv dV. In reality
I aswsao " - " -
the week was not dull by any mean?, but
; after a whole fortnight, of superlatives it
seems a Dlt commonplace to return iu u.,
ordinary card party and luncheon. The
fact Is that society Is getting restless again.
The 1 weather sent a score or mora of
the travelers off to the south or to Cali
fornia, and as Omaha has mora than a
few residents who are amply able to
gratify the whims of a luxuriant taste a
very few consecutive weeks of entertain
ing and being entertained suffices to meke
theni want a change. Indications are that
the Florida colony will be substantially
augmented before long for not a few are
frank to confess that they propose to leave
town Just as soon as fne Qulf coast season
opens and not return until after Lent.
There are to be no mora prises for bridge
and euchre. Certain of the fashionable
set whose dictates count have so ordained,
j and that settles It. Nor Is this decision an
altogether arbitrary ons-Uhe fact Is, some-
thing had to be done and it devolved upen
those who had the social prestige to do it.
Now that whist has become a science and
j such an exacting one at that, society haa
come to bo divided into three classes. Hie
whist enthusiasts ; those who play mod
erately well, and those who don't play at
! all. Oddly enough, the first named division
! Is surprisingly large considering the amount
I of time It requires to attain eleglbillty, and
it la this group, too. that Is responsible for
the abolishing of the prize. Things had
reached such a pass that a woman who
wculd . entertain at brldga , was almost
forced to make two parties of .lt for the
enthusiasts simply will not tolerate being
. .. '
made to lose a game through the play of a
less proficient partner, and it la quite im
possible to prevent these experts from oc
casionally drawing a poor partner. It
actually happened that ill feeling haa re
sulted on more than one occasion when a
handsome prize waa lost through u bad
play by an inexperienced partner and so a
ban waa placed upon prize giving. At the
largest and smartest whist partiea given
during the holidays the prizes were omitted.

A shor Uma - w PUbUshed an article
recommending to our readers the new dis
covery for the cure of Dyspepsia, called
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tableta, and the claim
then made regarding the wonderful cura
tive properties of the remedy have been
abundantly sustained by the facta. People
who were cautious about trying new reme
dies advertised in the newspapers and were
finally induced to give Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tableta a trial wera surprised and delighted
at the results. In many cases a single
package, costing but 10 cents at any drug
More, made a complete cure, and in every
Instance the most beneficial results were
reported. From a hundred or more re
ceived we have space to publish only a
few of the latest, but assure our readers
we receive so many commendory letters
that we shall publish each week a fresh
list of genuine, unsolicited testimonials and
never publish the same one twice.
From Jamea Yemmelsler, LaCrosse, Wis.:
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are doing ine
more good than anything I ever tried, and
I waa sp plxased at the results that I gave
away several boxes to my friends, who
have had the same benefits.
From Jacob Anthony, Portmurray, New
Jersey: I have taken Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets with the best results. I bad Dys
pepsia for six years,' and I had taken a
great deal of medicine, but the Tablets
seem to take right a hold and I feel good.
I am a farmer and lime burner, and I
heartily recommend to everyone who haa
any trouble with his stomach to use these
Tablets.
From Mrs. M. K. West, Preston, Minn.:
I have received surprisingly good effects
from using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tableta. I
gave one-half of my last box to .a friend
who aiso suffered from indigestion, and
she bad the same good results.
From Mrs. Agnes K. Ralston. Cadillac.
Mich.: I have been taken StUart's Dyspepsia
Tableta and I am very much better, and
I feel very grateful for the great benefit I
have received in so short a time.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets ara a certain
cure li sJl forma of In4'gestion. They are

"From time to time during the past operatic season I have been
impressed with the wonderful resources of the Weber Pianos which wa
have been using at the Metropolitan.
"Subjected to Immense usage by reason of our numerous re
hearsals, these instruments nevertheless retain their exquisite tone
quality.
"I know of no pluno that would give us better satisfaction, and it
is my desire that the Weber piano shall continue to be used at the
Metropolitan Opera House. HEINRICH CONRIED."
