When we look around your name Is on the order book. They're lrrestlble as the song of a elren. To look Is to linger for a second look and that leads to a determined desire for possession. Nothing so "different" in fabrics has before been seen In Omaha and they're to be seen only here. $35 is the price to order. OPEN EVEX1XG8 , MacCarthy-Wilson Tailoring Co. 304.300 SOUTH idTH ST. Near Southwest Corner 16th . and Faruain Sis. Phone Douglas 1808. If you would break down the barrier of formality and restraint at one stroke and have your luncheon start off with tho cheering sound of chatter and laughter, all you ha"e to do Is to devise clever plo cards and with their aid make the guests find their own places at the table. Like every other affair, luncheons are hard to get going. When the Ice Is once broken, conversation flows pretty freely, right along. Here is a suggestion: Leave the names oft your place cards, but. In stead, decorate them with a little sketch In pen and Ink, or water colors a sketch that describes each girl's hobby. Or, de pend upon an apt quotation or an original verse to point her out. The girls will go from place to place, guessing, until each finds her own, and, all the time, the jolllest sort of confusion . will rule. After they're all settled, have each girl read her verso out aloud. But keep your verses away from the serious or sentimental. Get humor In them. Make them full of good-natured malice fhe sort of caricaturing a trait that will make everybody. Including the girl herself, recognize It with a smile. Confections tn Summer Hats. The summer hat will be spreading, sweep ing, with enormous rolling brim, orna mented with fluffy lacea and a cockadee entwining the national colors. It Is known as. "Mother's Joy," but In commercial par lance Is called the "Campaign" hat. This Is the latest creation of the milliners who are members of the national association. Pearl gray and blue are to bo the fashion able shades. The hat Is to be worn on the back of the head, with a lace "lid" covering the hair beneath. Presidential campaigns come high, so do the huts, and It la to be presumed that It Is from this fact they derive the name. They will cost from M0 to IK0. A symposium of the views of the milli ners as to 1908 styles leaving out of con sideration the "Campaign" hats shows the following forecasts: Hats are to be chiefly trimmed .with flowers, preferably roses. Hats are to be more expensive than last year. Hats with feathers are to be worn only on dress occasions. Hats to be fashionable must be In gobe lin blue, pale yellow, and a shade of green or flame red. The "Merry Widow" sailor with wide brim Is to be much worn. Hats, It Is declared, will range tn prices from tlO to $160, with tho average hat at about 125. The psychology of bonnets was the chief subject of consideration at the convention, according to Mme. Hunt, president of the association. In making the .announcement. President Hunt said: "There certainly Is a psychology of hats, entirely aside from the fact that the souls of the majority of women are In their hats. If every woman would only look in the glass when trying on hats, and Instead of giving her undivided attention to the hat would study the outline of her face as seen under the hat, she would then look with scientific approval or disapproval upon the hat. So few women do that, you know. Fit the hat or bonnet to the face and you will always look up to date and be a fashion plate, not only in one's own fancy, but In the public's eye as well." FANCY COATS TO THE FORE Fashion Demands that Women Shall Hare More Then One of Them. The woman who succeeds In being con tented In the possession of one separate coat this season will be a stoic. Inrldent ally she will not at all times be modtshly arrayed, for there are coats for all occa sions and each occasion calls loudly for Its own appropriate wrap. Perhapa the garment which can come nearest being a general utility wrap for summer wear Is the pongee coat, and yet this coat will not by any means meet all like honey from the spoon: wrap the cans In a cloth wrung from hot water, then pour In the hot syrup, filling to overflow ing; screw on the tops, set upside down and leave until the next day. Then see that the covers are tight and set in a cool, dark place. ETHEL BARRYMORE'S GIFT Friends Present Her with a Circlet of Opala to Replace Stolen Trraaare. Of many testlmonlala of the affection In which friends, and even mere theatergoers, hold her. Miss Ethel Barrymore treasures most a wonderful necklace of flry opals, stones of 111 omen as many think, and she holds It dear because It came to her Just before her recent departure from New York as a present from sixty friends and In circumstances so unusual as to give the gift double value. The givera were women of the 000 and writers and artists, and the cause of the presentation was Miss Barry more'a loss by theft of a fine opal necklace that the new string was meant to reproduce and lmprova upon. The original circlet, which had been left to the young star by her mother, Georgia Drew Barrymore, had been prized ac cordingly. It was stolen from Miss Barry more's apartment. In 4 West Fortieth street, In New York, on February S last. On that night a Sunday, Miss Barrymore returned to her apartment, which Is known under the quaint name of "At the Sign of the Green Teapot," and found the place turned topsy-turvy. In trying to enter she found that the key would not work In the door, and she had to call aid to open It. Inside all her dresses were scattered about and every drawer had been turned upside down. At the time Miss Barrymore said that the burglars had evidently been look ing for Jewels she did not possess and never had possessed. She lost, however, a purse containing . 175 and a few trinkets her mother left her, Including the opal necklace. It was the string of stonea that ahe mourned most for. She had always looked on It as her mascot and had worn It on the atage whenever her costume had permitted It. WITH BRAID AND SATIN. needs and during April and much of May, even upon some summer days, pongee will be found hardly warm enough for comfart. However, wherever and whenever It Is appropriate the pongee coat will be worn, and no other class of warm weather coats Is so generally attractive as this one, though there are Innumerable' chic crea tions In other silks. In crepe. In chiffon broadcloth. In lace and In net. Every Importer haa brought over at least a few smart coats In pongee, and even the domestic manufacturers are achieving genuine successes In this prov ince, though among the Imported coats one 4 finds the original little touches of trim ming, the unusualness of cut and the au daciously successful handling of colors which belong to the French as to no other makers. r SHTURDHY SPEeiHL ' LETTER BOX (L!k cnO This Is undoubtedly rtn of the greatest Saturday Specials we haye ever offered.

BLACK AND GOLD COLLAR, models from a famous Parisian maker in which the heavy white lace was made up over a lining or black moussellne de sole Instead of the usual white. Later there were found In several Fifth avenue estab lishments Imported models Illustrating the same idea. One coat was of white net very elabo rately embroidered by hand In fine white soutache and made over black moussellne de sjle. The effect Is less bizarre thaq It sounds ard at ita beat has a decidedly French air. Close fitting or soml-fltting cutaway coata of Irish .lace, clur.y and other heavy laces are among the newest lace coats, and here, as in all the new co,.ts of approximately fitted lines, the irregular bot tom line obtains. Tsarina Objects. The czarina haa not only forbidden the ladles of her court to smoke, but haa or dered the Princess Qulltzln to Inform them that she dislikes the odor of tobacco. It la said that this dislike Is limited and only recently acquired. No one ever heard that ahe objected to the use of tobacco by her husband or any other man. It la a case of "women only." Meadlna; Wall Paper. During house cleaning time It Is Often found necessary to mend wall paper. Of course. If a new piece la patched on the old faded foundation the result Is very un popular Swastika. Maybe it Is because the word has been held to Indicate a wish for good luck that the swastika symbol Is figuring so much on women's clothes this spring. It Is fourd also In gold or silver o." purses and chatelaine bags, on umbrella handles and slipper buckles. It has been found ef fective on lawn and swastikas in place of prim stars, circles and diamonds. A groat swastika of candytuft is stretched on the south wall of the White House, and another on the sward near the Washington monument. A visitor haa to admire the erudition of Washington dwell ers when such mysterious emblems are put to everyday use. But a lover of the beautiful Is forced to admit the stiff ugli ness of a fylfot of flowers. To Cook Ears tn the Shell. To cook egga In the shell evenly through out, put them Into a deep pan, cover them with boiling water and let them stand for ten minutes or moie where the water will keep Just below the boiling point. This prevents the albumen from coagulating, but Jellies both white and yolk, making the eggs more appetising In appearance than when at the ordinary soft boiled stage, and at the aame time easy of digestion. Cenaoe of Women Workers. Mlsa Leonora O'Rollly, organizer of the Wpmen's Trades Union league, estimates that there are between 6,0(10,000 and 6,000,00 working women In the United States. Her work has taken her into every state In the union and Into most of the cities of prominence. rS- SATURDAY Fire Sole AT COMBS' I GREATER THAN EVER Regular big discounts still in' effect, and to force more goods out and dollars in we have put Two Big Lots in East Window 50c each and 1.00 each, at 9 o'clock sharp values up to $5.00 and $6.00, including clocks, umbrellas, combs, silverware, novelties of all kinds, leather goods, cigar cases, whist sets, mustache and military brushes, toilet articles and smokers' articles. :best bargains you ever saw: T TL,. COMBS l CO. Trie Busy Jewelers 1520 Douglas Street CURIOUS LAW SUIT AT PARIS Nobleman and His American Bride Would Recover Value of Wedding; Glfta. Count Louis Oontaut-Blron and his countess, who was Miss Lelshman, daugh ter of the United States ambassador at Constantinople, have begun a curious law suit at Paris. The Oontaut-Btrons were married In 1904. In addition to the diamonds and Jewels given by her relatives and those of her hus band, the bride received Innumerable minor presents. As they left town the day after their wedding the young couple locked up these small gifts In two trunks which were sent to an English agent in Paris. The agent stored them !n a deposit building, which was burned down in 1908. Now Countess Louis de Gontaut-Blron haa sued the agent for 10,000 In compensation of her loss. But $10,000 for little presents the "noth ings" that one gives when a friend Is mar ried! ,You might fancy It a mere exag geration. Even In America It 'Is probably not known what a prodigious number of little trinkets ranging in value from a few dollars to a few hundreds friends and even mere acquaintances rain upon a Parisian bride. QUEEN AM ELI E GOOD DRESSER How Sons of the Other Qneens Are Considered In Blatters of Dreaa. Queen Amelia of Portugal la one of the best dressed queens . In Europe, her taste being beyond reproach. Queen Helena of Italy,, on the contrary. Is somewhat apt to neglect good taste for extreme styles, although It must be confessed that ahe looks best In the smartest of costumes. Her majesty does not confine herself to one dressmaker, but will visit half a doxen shops until she decides on what she wants. What is more, she does not bellve In paying exorbitant prices simply because she la a queen, and dressmakers and modistes say In a whisper that aha knows how to drive a bargain. The queen of Holland, too, likes gay clothes, and Is exceedingly fond of French styles. She will pay a good price for anything she fancies, and ex perience haa taught the French dress- LACE SCARFS THE LATEST These and Other Fancr Proteetora Are Now Taking: the Place of For. Nothing more distinctive in spring styles has been seen In Fifth avenue, New York, than the old lace scarf which protects the throat in early spring, as the fur did earlier In the year. The scarf suggests an heirloom, even if the wearer never had a great-grandfather. The countess of Suth erland on her recent sojourn here often wore a long yellow scarf of 8panlsh lace wound round and round her throat when ever ahe ventured outdoors. Many women prefer the dainty French scarf of painted chiffon with hemstitched edges. Mrs. Benjamin Guinness, formerly a social light of London, but now In this city, recently wore a gown of mode cloth, piped with pale blue satin. Her scarf of yellow chlf- Lfon bore painted morning glories. BORROWED SIR THOMAS' YACHT Prlnecaa Henrr of Battenbcra; It for Mediterranean Crnlae. Vaca While Em press Eugenie waa Sir Thomas Linton's guest on his estates In Ceylon, Princess Henry of Battenberg, the queen of Bpain's mother, borrowed Sir Thomas' yacht, the Eiln, so well known In New York harbor, for a Mediterranean cruise. Both of Princess Henry's sons are deli cate. Physicians ordered them to pass the winter In Algiers. Sir Thomas thoughtfully placed his yacht at their service. It was freely rumored at one time that Lipton waa to marry the widowed Princess Henry of Battenberg, and the report did not seem to anger that very haughty personage. Sir Thomas is not seen often with King Ed ward .In public nowadays, but he has the entree to Buckingham palace always. s .. H Ommhm Unimm Stutim.

It con sists of a atone Jar with a lid and handle, an old tablecloth or a square yard of cloth, several thicknesses of newspapers. Make ready by spreading on the table the cloth first and then the newspaper opened out full size. Use plenty of boiling water. Place what ever Is to be cooked In the Jar with tho water.

Place the Jar tn the middle of the newspapers and bring tho papers and the outside cloth snugly up around the Jar; pin the cloth to hold all to gether, and set aside until cooked.

"A famoua lotion of colonial days, known as "Morning Dew," consisted of one ounce of rosewater, half an ounce of glycerin, half a teaspoonful of borax and three dropa of besoln, says ona of fhe beauty au thorities. The quantities may be multi plied If a greater amount Is needed. The lotion la applied to the chapped face, made rough from wind or exposure, with a bit of old linen.

Grtenstuffs and milk may be Indulged In freely." Canning Basalt Fruit. If you wan. your small fruit, such as berries, to taste like fresh fruit, try this way of doing them up: Wash your cans thoroughly, fit the rubbers on. then fill aa full with the cleaned fruit aa possible without crushing.
