Thinly veiled censure of Omaha and its people seems to be the rule with lecturers from elsewhere who have been imported recently to "up- lift" local wanderers in search of truth in art. ' ; "Indeed, I should positively he lonesome for some abuse when I go to- a lecture nowadays, ,'. it wasn't , handed out so easily and quickly I've gotten o I look for it," laugh ed one charming matron. Yesterday, at the John Cowper Powys lecture; it was our packing in dustry, out of which grows much of our prosperity and the business suc cess of husbands of many of' the women in the audience, which "went against the grain" With the learned Oxford professor.. "He made me feel as if 1 were a carnivorous cannibal because I eat meat occasionally," wailed a sweet young thing. v Dr. Powys spoke of his "cuttivawd Omaha audience," and then gave the - impression that we had sheep run ning about wild on the street when he asked "How could we pass sheep on the street without blushing for the 'manner in, which we slaughter them?" But Dr. Powys' most scathinir re buke came near the close of his lec ture when he saw several women reach for their hats. "And while you are putting on your hats " the words came with biting emphasis, then he' continued with a few more finishing remarks. i "Well, he's a brilliant lecturer any way, so- ht'i entitled to some tem perament," seems the consensus of opinion. v Hallowe'en tarry.

The housewife who is careful both of her time and her money will find both saved to some extent by plan ning her menus seversT days or 'a week in advance, she will tind her self relieved of the daily problem "What shall I have for dinner?" and he can do her ordering more satis factorily. At least the dinner menus should be so planned and the experi enced housewife will know quite accu rately what left-overs she can count on from each dinner for the following day s luncneon. 1'or some of use the breakfast menu is practically standardized. ,The sim plest possible menu is truit, toast or some other form of bread and a bev erage' in some houses a cereal is add ed, or eggs, or both. In a menu such as indicated the special fuel foods are the toast, butter and cereal; the min eral foods the fruit and eggs and milk or cream on the cereal: the pro tein, the milk or cream and eggs. In a household where the men will do hard physical labor during the day and will have a cold lunch, the addi tion of meat and potato to the menu ?;ives extra protein and extra fuel ood. I have not mentioned the food value of the beverage, for that is so dependent on the kind served. Tea and coffee add no food value except from the cream and sugar used with them; milk, cocoa and chocolate are valuable foods. - - The luncheon menu in its simplest form consists of a Hot dleh or heavy aalad Bread and butter Beveraia ... To which menu we may add a soup, cold meat, a second hot dish or a dessert. One or more of these may be added. The hot dish may be eggs in some form, potatoes, a creamed or scalloped vegetable, mac aroni and cheese, or any made dish of ten-over meat, ine saiaa may oe po tato, egg, fish, cheese or meat or a light salad with a hot main dish. A cream soup is a good luncheon dish when only two or three other foods are served. In any luncheon the main dish may or may not contain much protein. For an ordinary family dinner one would choose one of the following groups of dishes: i. 1 ' ; it.

In some houses the family is satisfied with either soup or salad, though they ase not substitutes for each other, except that each adds an extra dish to the menu.

Copernicus and the Carpathian Mountains of the Moon at Sunrise. By GARRETT P. SERVISS. As the sun "runs lower" with the approach of winter in our hemisphere, the full moon, as a partial compensa tion, runs higher.! his is one of na ture's adjustments which some per sons regard as having been made ex pressly for the benefit of the earth's inhabitants The mechanism of the thing is very simple: the moon cannot be1 full, i. e., have its whole earthward face illumi nated, except when it is on the side of the earth opposite to the sun, and conatmcb Central J(iyk$chool flavor. The practice of beginning a duiner with soup is a good one, for though we know a clear soup has lit tle food value, it may stimulate appe tite, and does start the flow of the digestive juices. When serving twp vegetables it is well to choose one which is starchy, as potatoes or sweet potatoes, and a green vegetable, such as peas or cabbage. ..The salad should be of plain lettuce or of fruit or of vegetables. For ordianry occasions rich puddings should be avoided un less tha main course is light, or small portions only should be served. There is a real art in putting to gether foods which give a goo(l blend of flavors as well as a sensible com bination of foodstuffs. . It is permis sible from a dietary standpoint to serve cream of tomato soup and toma to salad at luncheon, but it is monoto nous. We do not want potatoes and rice at the same time, partly because both have similar flavor and texture. Certain food combinations are so fa miliar to us that they are a habit. Many of them are both nutritious and artistic combinations, such as KlHh and curumbera or tomatoea luck and apple aauce Turkey end cranberry aauce ' ' J.ainb and pcaa ANparague on toaet ' Cereal, cream and auiraf A satisfactory menu is one that con tains an artistic and nutritious com bination of a few well-cooked dishes prepared without an undue amount of exertion on the part of the housewife.

A Photograph of from this it follows that when the sun is far below the equator the full moon must be far above it. Thus, to a certain extent, our short and relatively dim winter days are made up for by long and compara tively bright winter nights. The man tle of snow covering thi ground in high northern latitudes reflects the winter splendor of the moon, so that even meteorology aids the compensa tion. ' Except for the chill of the air there is no season so favorable as winter for the study of the wonders of the moon. Next to a knowledge of the stars I would put a knowledge of the geography" of the moon. There is a little world, more than 2,000 miles in diameter, placed Tight at our door, and showing even to the naked eye the principal features of its topogra phy a9 clearly as we can see the geo graphical markings on a school globe. You put such a globe one foot in diameter at a distance from the eye of about 114 feet and it will look just as large as the full moon.' You will see its pictured continents and oceans very much as you see the dark plains and bright mountainous regions on the moon, except that they will not appear so distinct unless they are very strongly printed. Maps-snd photographs of the moon can now be obtained on which the entire visible surface of the lunar world is represented with an accuracy which, in some respects, is still un attainable in maps of ihe earth. We cannot look at the earth all at one view as we can at the moon, so that we have no means of directly compar ing our earth maps with the actual object represented, as we have in the case of the moon. We can make a direct portrait of the moon, . 1 ; A painter who dwelt on the face of his sitter like a microscopic insect, able to see only minute portions of it at a time, and forced to connect the various parts by measurements of dis tances and angles before he could combine them into an idealized whole, would be in the situation of the map maker," or globe-maker, who under takes to make a representation or a model of the earth on which he lives. To see the rouncLmoon in the sky is to have a visual, though inferential, proof of the rotundity of the earth. Vnere before you is an actual world, "hung : upon nothing," with empty space all around it. You rake your telescope and look dqwn upon the tops of its lofty peaks, or see their black shadows projected across the neighboring plains. I do not know of any spectacle so thrilling as that. The principal features of the moon are easily seen without a telescope. When the full moon is on the mend- Advice to Lovelorn By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. ' No Rnaaaement.

' ian you will see -near the bottom of its disk, a glowing spot from which whitish streaks radiate in a manner that recalls the appearance of the pip of an orange from which the peel has been stripped off. That spot is the huge crater ring called "Tycho." All around it the face of the moon is bright, because it is broken by rugged mountains and craters which scatter the sunbeams in all directions. On the left-hand side df the moon you will notice a great, irregular, dark expanse, with bright points in it. This is called the "Oceanus Procellarum"' (Ocean -of Tempests). :The dark rounded patch at its southeast end is the "Mare Humorum" (Sea of Hu mors). Above jnd to the right of that is the "Mare Nubium" (Sea of Clouds). In the upper part of the eastern half of : the moon is a large shadowy .expanse, the "Mare Imbri um". (Sea. of Rains). ' To the right of that, separated by a crinkling bright line (the "Appenine mountains") is the oval "Mare Seren itatis" (Sea of Serenity). Southwest of this appears the "Mare Tranquil litatis"' (Sea of Tranquillity), below which, hang the irregular "Mare Fe cunditatis", and "Mare Nectaris." A distinct .dark oval is , made by the "Mare ' Vaporum" (Sea of Vapors). And between the Mare Nubium and the Mare Imbrium is the immense crater ring "Copernicus." The dark patch almost in the center of the moon, east of the lower part of the Appenine mountains, is the "Mare Vaporuin" (Sea of Vapqrs). Of course the so-called seas have no water. They got their names before the waterless condition of the moon was known. But they may possibly be an cient sea bottoms. Notice the curious I profile of a woman's face, the chin and nose resting on the Mare Nubium. i -L A.. I r-- Skinners THE HIGHEST QUALITY SPAGHETTI 36 hg RtdX Book Frtt SKINNER MFG.
