JULY 22, 1916. 11 Society Notes Personal Gossip -:- Entertainments -:- Club Doings MILADY REVIVES THE QUAINT GARDEN f Like a Glint from a Cameo is . the Fragrant, Old-fashioned Flower Bed. Timely Fashion Hint ' Br LA KECONTEUSE. ' BOUQUETS OF FRAGRANCE By MELLIFICIA, July 21. "And the woodbine spices are wafted abroad And the musk of the roses blown." In keeping with many of the beauti ful old-fashioned things which are con stantly being revived, our sister of the east has inaugurated some revivals in her garden. Be it the large garden on her cou.itry place, her summer estate, or the narrow window box of her city apartment, the lay-out is not complete unless there is in some un- J 'ODstrusive corner a bed over-flowing witn fragrant old-tashioned soices, There is a vast variety of these odori ferous herbs, the edible and the non edible varieties. Such flowers as lemon verbtnas and rose seramums not side bv side with mints and peppers, sweet mar- loram, thyme and sage. Catnip and sweet , clover, tansy and parsley are often found. " In the morning .when the garden is wet with dew, in the late afternoon when the watering pot and spray make .showers of rainbow mist, or after drenching summer rain a deli cate bdor becomes noticeable, and gently floating on 'the light breeze it permeates- the stuffy room or the airy chamber: ' The pungent, aromatic odor refreshes, as one returned traveler expresses it, like a bonquet of old-fashioned flowers. Some Omaha women are possessors of these delightful garden beds. Fore most among these is Miss Arabella Kimball. In one corner of her beau tiful garden is the fragrant bed lend ing its delicious fragrance to all around. Miss Glasler Comet for Wedding.

A cryptic mes sage by which an American mission ary in Turkey got information of fam ine and pestilence past the Turkish censor is described in a bulletin is sued today by the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. The message written on the postcard follows: "We shall very soon have to teat the first part of the twentieth verse of the fifth chapter of Job and still sooner, even now, of the last of psalm 91 :i. What a blessig to have a God who is true and able. Lots of love to you all. Dr. Hamlin's famous mix ture in demand here." The first part of the twentieth verse of the fifth chapter of Job reads: "In famine He shall redeem thee from death." The last part of the third verse of the ninety-first psalm follows the ex- firession "For he' shall deliver thee rom the snare of the fowler" and it is added, "and from the noisome pes tilence." The mixture referred to is a medi cine used in cholera cases. The board of commissioners interpret the refer ence to the mixture to mean that cholera is raging in that part of Tur key. , The board refers to the message as "one of veiled allusions veiled to the censors, but clear to us."

One man said that lie was compelled to let his hair grow and his wife had to do the family washing, in order to have money to buy the bargains. We would hate to think that his statement was true for that would be pay ing too dearly for the whistle. We looked upon it as a jokelet for his imperial highness looked quite prosperous and his hair .was not over long. We indulged in a little piscatorial pleasantry a few days ago, and whispered of shady trees, babbling brooks and fish ing to one who seemed to be suffering from the heat and soured with things mundane. We hoped through suggestion to furnish relief but failed completely, for the response came quickly, if somewhat sadly, "Yes, and get all eaten up by mosquitoes" THAT WAS THE FLY IN THE OINTMENT And how often we find that to be so. Some drawback, some unpleasant thing, -mars the joy and profit which might otherwise be purs. If there is a single person who made a purchase at this sale of ours, which ' failed to satisfy, which has been a disappointment let us know and we'll see that restitution follows; that s the J , Kilpatrick Way SATURDAY, JULY 22D Several important lots will lie closed , out Glance over the list, if interested come in the morning if posrv sible, for not only will you have the advantage of pick, but the .. morning hours are best for trading.
