UTTERFLIE8 and roses ecem to form tho motif (or all costumes,
trimmings, garnitures and accessories for tho soason. When of
generous sice, either ono of thoso often appears at tho corsage,
above the Klrdle. near the shoulder, or to tuck up the skirt
drapery. They are most alluring when poised In tho colffuro.
Fur acts, muffs, neckpieces and toques are enlivened with all sorts
of rdses, fashioned of chiffon, satin, velvet and other materials. And, of
course, for tho pofonnial corsage, they come singly, in clusters, wreath
and garlands. , .
Graceful butterflies are seen very much poised on hats and big tullo
ones, with wired wings, often form a dainty ovenlng cap. Charming
boudoir caps, made of chiffon with spangled butterflies, nro shown In
many of the shops.
For a long while the butterfly motif has been tho most popular de
nim for embroider? faddists, belnc used on household linen, luncheon
sets, handkerchiefs and lirigerles, cither embroidered in tho satin
stitch, in eyelet work, or laco medallions with tho same design. A now
fad Is to mount them -under glass, making- a very attractive design for a
tea tray. Tally cards, place cards and crcpo paper luncheon seta all show
small butterflies hovering over their -surface.
Neither must I omit the smart black, mesh veilings with a little but'
terfly outlined In heavy black lace and displayed on the cheoK. Tne
mesh must bo so light that it hardly, shows, so the ono ornament stands
out as If stamped on 'one's face.

Anti-oaioon leaguo want to know. The

DUNN COMPARES POLICE
HERE WITH0THER CITIES
As a partial answer' to alleged Ineffi
ciency on the part of the local depart

report ot tho police department of the
city of Taterson, N. J., to that of Omaha.
Paterton reports 147 officers as the total
of the department which guards that city
from crime and who patrol a territory
eight and one-third miles In area- Omaha
has a department which, Including all,
numbers but 130. Tho .territory covered
by the local force Includes twenty-four
square miles. Omaha notwithstanding
this Is larger than Pateraon by at least
10,000 souls and Is 'centrally located on

the city's nesds and results correspond

on the Omaha-Council BlUffa line Is In

away with the crowding on the plat

the old cars and has reduced the possibili

Whether or not the sldedoor cars will

Reliable Dealer
Question Why do you sell "Glen dale"?
Answer Because It is a pure, vholesome product.
Because it is uniform and reliable in quality. Because
my customers like it and I like satisfied customers.
Q. How do you know it is pare and whole
some? A. The U S. Government inspects every bit of
it and certifies its purity. Armour and Company
guarantee its quality. They wouldn't dare do this
if the product didn't merit it.
Q. What do customers say of "Glendale"?
A. New users are surprised and delighted with
the flavor. Old users comment on its uniformity
always the same and always good. The saving on
their butter bills pleases all.
Q. Is there any advantage to you in sell
ing "Glendale" instead of butter?
A. Only this: "Glendale" is steadier in price.
Then there is never a "kick back" on quality.
That's steady, too. There's not enough really good
butter, to go around all seasons. ' Glendale" is
uniformly good.
Q. How much can I save by using "Glen
dale"? A'. The price of Glendale averages at least one
third test than the market price of butter. Customers
have told me they save $5.00 a year on each person
in the famiiy.
Q. Howcan I prove what you have told me?
A. -Bay one pound of "Glendale" and try It
every way ou can think of.
frmours
"Glendale" Butterine
brings these answers from every direction. There
fore the leading dealers in this community have
arranged with Armour and Company to have
4 Glendale" for you all he year 'round. They
will always have it fresh, pure and, wholesome.
Their names will appear in this paper Feb. 45th.
