On this glorious Labor day it might be appropriate . to discourse to you about the society persons who are going to see water events at the beaches Or hare special parties at the clubs, or attend the mammoth ball game, but we will not. ; ' Instead, we will tell you a choice bit of gossip which may help you if you are a coming captain of indus try, or something ot that sort. A number of Omaha business firms have young heads that is, young men art; at the helm well, that is- just as ob scure; but 111 let it go at that. Now these young men, not despising busi , ness because they are the owners, nave taken a hand behind the coun ters; that is, they have been serving as clerks in their establishments (very clear, isn't it?) . .' Now, of course, we wouldn't accuse ; ny young 'society woman of being : interested in , handsome unmarried young men, but some of them are in terested in parasols. This interest forced them, to go downtown the oth : er day, shopping for the dainty sun 1 shade. Of course) many stores are i selling parasols now, but it did seem that certain stores had 'the best ' lot , from which to select. Now for some ; reason or .other these young heads ; 1 mean helms oh, 1 mean owners o: ; stores had phenomenal sales of par ; asols that day: Another day thev were selling bags, bead bags, leather bags, , silk bgi, ad infinitum, ad des- , peranduni, and such remarkable sales i as they did have in that department j Every so . msny young society j women are sporting new parasols ! what?

Outwardly . we 'are browtii of skin, of more springlikewhich have developed partial powers 1 Perhaps the most wonderful story that the geological strata have yield ed concerning the development of life on this globe is that of the emergence of the fine of the birds from that of the reptiles. The water was, appar ently, the first home of animals, the Isnd ww the second, and finally came the atmosphere. To acquire the king dom of the air the power off flight was necessary. Either the birds had to be created as an entirely new form of animal or they had to be developed but of a pre-existing form. . The lat ter method was adopted, and the anatomy of the, reptiles lent itself to the changp. ; i -' But by what steps was flight ac quired? There are two nrinrina! the ories: One, that flight was brought about bjr jumping down; the other that it. came through jumping -up.

A man invites a business man to talk a little matter over at luncheon. It was clever of him to propose a meeting of that kind. 'Had he called on the man in the man's office to make such a proposition he would nave run the risk of being kicked out. But you may not insult the man who is paying for your meal, and the guest must listen with what patience he may. Outside on the street, the luncheon being eaten, the bill having been paid and the relation of host and guest having ceased, it is time for the. man who had . been a guest to turn' rock. " The man with whom he has eaten filet and, mignon and green corn, let tuce salad and custard pie or black berry pudding, has made him a shady proposition. The excellence of the luncheon could not disguise that fact. He has asked the man who sat across the table from him to commit a dis honest act. . , - i To he sure he cloaked if in 'termj of business. He told him "tricks of that kind were turned by millionaires every day," but if the listener had a clear brain it could not be befogged by such reasoning. He knew he was isked to enter into a Crooked deal. It was time to be a fock. Figuratively he Should stand .still, a' still as lhe unmoved rock on yonder unyielding snore, x-iteraiiy he snouia look the man through, should Say; "I can't for a moment consider such a plan..

But these rudimentai -winglets do not develop in the modern bird. They are simply relics of a former , state of things, anatomical memories, so to speak, perpetuating themselves m the ) embryo, but, disappearing in the adult because their usefulness has passed. A guess is even- made at the length of time that has elapsed since the first birds were developed out of reptiles by acquiring feathers on the fore, and hind limbs, which enabled them to glide easily to the ground from perch es in. the trees, like the flying lemurs, or the flying squirrels of our time. It was. Mr. Beebe thinks, something like 7,000,000 years ago, in the early Ju rassic age,' that this interesting ad vance in animal locomotion occurred. The earliest bird-like creature known is the archaeopteryx, a feather-limbed reptile. The order of development seems to have bent from sailing, or gliding, flight to true wing-flight, and this in volved the gradual disuse and disap pearance of the hinder wings, or "pel vic" wings, and the growth and im provement of the fore-wings, until they became the only ones. The su periority of the fore-wings consisted in the fact that they could be used as active-aids in sustaining the body in the air by flapping, while the hind wings were available only as gliders, and they became unnecessary after the fuller development of the tail. -As. to the origin of feathers, thev. too, were not created as entirely new things, but were evidently developed by gradual evolution, under the spur of use and necessity, from the scales It is safe to gay that since the first bird was evolved from a reptile about -7,000,000 , . years have passed. As an existing type, it has .vanished. of the reptile. Back of the archae opteryx was, Mr. Beebe believes, an earlier type of flying reptilej which he calls the tetrapteryx, or four-winged flyer. This has vanished as an ex isting type, but the image of it reap pears, like a flitting vision of the far past, in the rudimentary structure of the young squab. . , Variety in Canned Fruits ..The canned fruits are less used in summer tban during the months when the markets are devoid of fresh native fruit,, but it is always well to include a few reliable brands in the emer gency shelf, especially if you are any distance' from the market. There should be no monotony in canned vegetables, for there are dozens of different ways of preparing them. Peaches,' for example, are very nice chilled and served with a dot of cur as it is in tropical countries, not only try or game courses. There are two ways of preparing the pineapple for this purpose. Drain the slices from the syrup, wipe them dry and saute 'them' in butter until light brown. This is delicious with roast chicken and the syrup can be utilized in any fruit, drink or dessert. The second method makes a sweeter garnish and is generally used in game. Empty the entire contents of a can of pineapple into a shallow rant jelly in. each half and sprinkled graniteware baking dish,-taking care with ' grated pineapple. aCanned 'ftt 'he slices do not overlap one peaches also combine nicely with ! another. Set. this on the back of the fresh -fruit for fruit salads. : , I stove to slowly simmer until the juice Now that canned pineapple is so is all absorbed and the slices are good and inexpensive, it is being used quite clear. . , .

AH summer meals should be served daintily and, when possible, meals should be taken out of doors. Any one who has not formed the habit of eating on the porch has not. yet fath omed the delights of warm weather. It does, not really matter whether the porch is large or small, so long as there is room for the table and chair's. (It is not necessary that hot food should be served at each meal). Here are a few suggestions for a company luncheon menu: . Ribbon Sandwiches Spread . thin slices of brown bread with a small quantity of butter. Spread one slice with finely minced ham, then place over this a slice of American cheese, sprinkled with paprika pepper and salt, then add a slice of white bread, cut diagonally, making triangular sandwiches three tiers deep. 'Iced Tea Put into a teapot which has been heated with boiling water, four large tablespoonfuls of tea, pour over it three cups of boiling water and let it infuse, on the side of the stove for three and a half to four minutes; then pour off the liquid.
