The sanitary Improvements which have

THE VERY NEWEST IN WRAPS
Sleeveless Caaaqae le a Favorite
Model for the . Dressy
Cont.
"The thing that struck me most forcibly,"
says one correspondent in writing of the
great fashion shows, "was the marvellous
variety and beauty . of the coat designs.
Surely never before were so many fascinat
ing varlktlcns rung upon the coat theme.
Whether the coats are separate garments,
or, as la more often the case In element
toilettes, are en suite, with a fourreau or
skirt and bodice, they are wonderful In line
and detail, and my brain fairly reeled with
the effect to remember even a small per
lunge at Thomas, striking him In the back.
A gash three Inches long and an Inch deep
through the heavy muscles of the back was
the result. Both men were arrested and
taken to the city jail, where the police
aurgeon sewed up their wounds. They had
little to say of the trouble, except that they
were good friends ordinarily and would be
again. Thomas said If he ever got out of
Jail he would surely leave town, as he had
had nothing but trouble since he arrived
here. They were fined for disturbing the
peace yesterday afternoon.
Child Taken from Foster Mother.
The Juvenile officers have caused the ar
rest of Mra John Mangold, who was
brought Into . public notice several weeks
ago by her attempt to shoot herself In Al
bright. She fired a bullet Into her bresst,
Inflicting a deep flesh wound, though it was
not at all dangerous. She was cared for at
the South Omaha hospital and has but
lately been able to leave that Institution.
She has an adopted child which has b?en
with her for three years or more. It Is
said that she Intended to leave the city last
night to join her husband in Denver. The
juvenile authorities have been Investigat
ing the case and It Is likely the woman will
be deprived of the custody of the adopted
child. The reason assigned Is that the
woman Is not a fit party to be entrusted
with the care of a child.
Police Help Hant Wife.
When Jim Jones, colored, returned to hU
home from the packing houses, he found
that his wife was gone and was thrown
Into considerable consternation by the state-
ment of the immediate neighbors that
another colored man by the name of Al
Vance had come to the house and. using a
knife as a means of intimidation, had kid
naped Mrs. Jonea Jones traced the pair to
Indian Hill and then went to the police and
secured a warrant for the arrest of Vance.
The police went with him to the place

centage of the striking coats In the prsaga
at the Grand Prix. Everything Is worn.
There are apparently no hard and fast
rules. Originality and beauty excuse an7
extremes; and yet though originality Is so
ardently desired the general effect of the
mode exhibits Is not bizarre or spectacular.
I think I have never known a time when
French fashions struck me as so extrava
gant yet In such extraordinarily good
taste."
The loose long casaque, without sleeves,
has figured largely In the coat display and
in linen Is to be a particularly emphasised
feature of the midsummer modes In TTou
vllle. Already In Paris stunning linen

tion with other material, such as the popu

played and no amount of hand work and
elaboration Is too great to be lavished upon
the handsomest of these models.
The frock of net and linen sketched for
one of our cuts was one of the sleeveless
casaque type and the coat with Its cutaway
"wing" skirts Is built upon lines highly
favored. The cutaway Idea has attained a
decided vogue this season and Is carried out
In more or less radical fashion In all sorts
of materials.
The fascinating Mme. Max, to whom Is
accorded a place among the half dozen
most perfectly and authoritatively gowned
women of Taris, wore at one of the great
racing events one of these long cutaway
wing skirt coats In rich deep violet sl'k.
This coat, severely plain save for silk cov
ered buttons the full length of the Ion,
close fitting sleeves and on the coat skirts,
was worn over a clinging fourreau of soft
white and black line check, which fell in
long graceful lines and was untr'mmel In
Its skirt length. A big plumed hat Jif violet
matching the coat completed a costume
which for all Its studied simplicity of detail
achieved a decided success and called forth
admiring comment from all critics.
For that matter, Mme. Max never falls
in her effects. Her taste Is unerring and
though often audacious In her originality
the results always Justify the audacity.
Where Dress Fads Originate.
A number of popular actresses are re
sponsible for many pretty fashions, says a
writer. Miss Lillian Bralthwatte set the
fashion of bugle-trimmed dresses; Camllle
Clifford created the close-fitting princess
gown; Miss Marie Tempest Is responsible
for a pretty coat with short sleeves. Sarah
Bernhardt ruled the sleeve fashion for a
time, while Mrs. Langtry gave a number
of clever dress Ideas to the public. There
have been skillful modifications in all of
where the parties were said to have se
creted themslves. Captain Tumqulst as
sisted In the hunt. Both the man and
woman were taken to Jail.
It Is said that on other occasions Jones
has had trouble with his wife and that she
has even refused to live with him at times.
Muslrate at Country Club.
In spite of the rain last evening the mu
slcale at the South Omaha Country club
waa given with effect before a fair sized
audience. Mra J. D. Ringer had charge of
the recital and the merit of the perform
ance showed her -careful preparation. The
program was not given until after the rain
had ceased. It consisted of eight or ten
numbers, mostly by South Omaha people,
and some from Omaha.
The management has determined to re
quire all visitors at the regular Friday even
ing dances to show their membership tick
ets hereafter. It la thought that some peo
ple who had no membership have been In
the habit of Imposing on the privileges of
the club members.
A mid-summer tennis tournament has
been arranged, which Is to start Saturday.
The pairing for the opening games of the
initial round is as follows:: Ferguson and

COLLEGE GIRLS ARE CARELESS
Matron Moans Over the Thlaae that
Are Left Behlad at Vaca
tion Time.
"My troubles begin with vacation," said
the matron of a girls' college. "Don't talk
to me about the carelessness of boys they
aren't In It with the girls. May be It Is
because we expect more of the girls. Here's
my experience; Judge for yourself. The
first crowd got off on the special, which
left at 7 p. m. Before ( next morning I
had telegrams galore. Jeweled, fraternity
pins, lace waists, a princess gown left hang
ing In a closet, a diamond ring and an opal
necklace were a few of the things tele
graphed for. One student left Ave shirt
waists, her new gymnasium shoes and all
of her small things. Washcloth, tooth
brush, soap cup, whlskbroom. and never
even wrote for them forgot she ever had
them, I guess.
"Do you know, I don't believe ten girls
in the whole college had more than two
thirds of their belongings. They all left
all their toilet articles. I think college life
makes girls careless and slipshod. I asked
the dean If one of the girls was very
wealthy. "Why, no, I don't think so they
are comfortably fixed, I believe, but not
rich. What made you ask?'
" 'What made me ask? That girl left six
almost new pairs of shoes, two hats, all
her towels, curtains, shoe bags (they all
leave those), two silver spoons, a lot of
books, a beautifully carved sandalwood
box and any number of small things could
not get them in her trunk, she said. Do
you wonder I thought her family must be

"Sweaters, hot water bags, handsome
waists by the dozen, aren't even written
for. One girl did write for her bible she
had forgotten and needed very much.
When they leave valuable things we send
them C. O. D., and of course forward all
things written or telegraphed for If found

of all kinds taken from their rooms.
"It's a grand harvest for the maids.
They find more than they can carry away.
After a while they stop taking powder,

tles of witch hazel, camphor, alcohol and
tonics never heard of so many kinds of
tonic. They look with scorn . on nail
brushes and tooth powders. They really
have more towels, handkerchiefs and wash
cloths than they can carry away. It seems
an awful waste to me to have good things
go In the trash hampers when I know all
the mothers aren't rich and many have
denied themselves to send their daughters
to college."
Olive Oil for Health.
Many women exhaust their system by not
taking dally care of their health. Those
who are troubled to know how to proceed
should take a tablespoon ful of olive oil
dally. It Is good for the skin, the digestion
and the liver, making them do their work
well. Fill a wineglass partly with water,
then put In the oil and more water, gulp It
down and you will not taste It. Get the
best olive oil that is to be got. This is a
treatment that may not suit everybody It
does suit most people but ask your doctor.
because he may know of some bodily
peculiarity that might make it disagree.
There Is no treatment that will suit every
body, but In nine cases out of ten those
who follow this advice will testify to Its
wisdom and will be quite astonished at
the result. It makes you vigorous, brisk
and not overburdened.
To Clean Palattagrs.
To clean an oil painting that Is covered
with dirt and fly specks wipe all the dust
from the painting with a soft cloth. Put a
little linseed oil In a saucer and, dipping
a' finger In the oil, rub the painting gently.
It will require time and patience, but the
effect will repay you. Artists say that in
cleaning a painting nothing but the Angers
dipped In oil or In water should be used.

The city council held a short, but busy,

correct the error In the ordinance for the
oiwnlng of Twenty-fourth street In front of
Crelghton college. This was read the first

ber of lota In Mayne Place for park pur
poses. These lots are In a depression and
will be Improved by the Park board.
The council did not adjourn, but took a
recess to Thursday morning at t o'clock,
when the monthly payrolls will be pre
sented. A communication from Reed Bros., offer
ing to deed a tract of land fifty feet wide
from the south line of Guise's addition to
Blnney street wss referred to a committee.
The offer would have the effect of opening
Twnty-elghth street fifty feet wide upon
the cancellation of taxes assessed at IXH
but the land could only be used for street
purposes.
Councilman Bedford Introduced a resolu
tion as follows:
Resolved, That the city engineer be In
structed to notify the street railway com-
fiany to abate the frogpond nuisance at the
ntersectlon of Thirtieth and Spalding
streets, or stock It with bullheads and plant
weeping willows to protect them.
The resolution was unanimously adopted.

The ordinance for the opening of Twenty
fourth street was vetoed and the veto sus
tained, after Elsasser had made a speech
criticising -the old ordinance.
Gaa Commissioner Reports.
The report of the gas commissioner
showed the result of recent tests In that
office.
The Park board requested the purchase
of certain lots In Mayne place for park
purposes.
Appraisers reported damages of Jl.tOO for

The report of appraisers on the opening
of Paul street from Twenty-first to Twenty
thlrd was referred to the committee of the
whole. The report carried JS.fiOO.
An Invitation waa received from the
League of American Municipalities request
ing the council to send delegates to the con
vention to be held at Norfolk September 18

If you ever try this experiment, you will always bless the day you woke up.
There's a reason why Grape-Nuts food furnishes power to body and brain. It is made of
selected parts of the field grains that furnish phosphate of potash in a natural state that can be
assimilated by the human body. This joins with the albumen of food and forms the gray matter of
the brain and nerve centers.
Feed skillfully and you can "do things."
The greatest brain workers eat Grape-Nuts.

You meat eaters who are ailing in any sort of way should take the hint.
A prominent authority says :
There U no doubt of the fact that meat-eating Is not essential to human life, and that men can be well nour
ished without resorting; to a flesh diet.
"I think the statement may be accepted without question that, aa a rule, we eat too m , not only of meat,
but of all forma of food. The question of limiting, the diet Is based primarily not on the principle of economy, but
on the requirements of hygiene.
"At the early breakfasts which Americans are wont to Indulge In, that Is, a hearty meal before going to their
dally work, the emission of meat is to be
