THE BEE: OMAHA. FRIDAY. OCTOBfcK 191V
HOUSEWIFE'S PART
The fUowinp poem, written twelve years
"(to by biisle M. Best, and recently repub
lished by the Pittsburg Gaaette Times, while
opposed in answer to frequent allusloni to
"Roman's easy lot," Is especially applicable
in these war days of economy, for It Is the
women of the nation who are asked to do
the saving, and the great burden of cor serv
ing the resources of America devolves upon
the housewife. The poem reads:
Oh, men', and oH. brothers, and all of you
others,

And I'll tell you without altering any of It,

War Closes Bachelors' Quarters. I
"For Rent" is the sign hanging on
the door of the once well known
"House of Hope," which formerly
housed six of Omaha's most eligible
bachelors. War has indeed wrought
hav? nvitfi the bachelors' clubs. Four
of tRe "inmates" of the "House of
Hope" have heard their country s
call and responded, hence the closing
of the popular club.
These four young men are Captain
Taylor Belcher of the quartermaster's
department, who is now at Camp
Cody, Deming, N. M.; Chief Yeoman
Temple McFayden, who is in the
naval training station at Mare island,
and Herbert R. Hammond, now serv
ing the government in the capacity of'
civilian metal inspector in t'e
ofdnance department at Chic e
Mass. Lieutenant Walter S. Byrne,
also in the ordinance department, is
in Omaha at present, but is awaiting
orders. But two of the group are
still engaged in peaceful pursuits.
They are Grant L. McFayden and
" Harry L. Byrne, who have given up
the "House of Hope" and are now
stopping at the Bransford.
Numerous little informal dancing
parties which were given for the mem
bers of the younger set by this group
of young men will be pleasantly re
membered, arid the social affairs
which they were wont to plan of all
liivis will.be greatly missed.
"The Nomad club," another similar
establishment in the Field club dis
trict, now stands dark and empty, as
ten of the twelve young men who
.formerly called it "home" are now in
the service of Uncle Sam.
"Ladies' nights" were given free
quently at the club and the sound of
merrymaking often lasted well into
the wee small hours, while now the
empty rooms give back echoes and all
that is left are the memories of "the
good old days before the war."

Superstitions of Siam.
In Siam all babies receive the same
name at birth. This name is Dang,
which means red, and it is the only
designation vouchsafed the newcom
er for some months. For sev
eral years they wear no clothing ex
cept perhaps a string of beads or
bracelets and anklets as ornaments. At
a child's birth a cord that has been
blessed by the priests is tied round
the outside of the house, and three
balls of rice are thrown in "lucky di
rections" by Jhree old women, who
are always present Lt such a time,
and whose business it Is to solicit for
the little one the patronage and pro
tection of guardian angels. The cord
and the scattering about the premises
of a certain kind of native fruit are
supposed to be efficacious in prevent
ing the entrance of evil spirits.
Br ADELAIDE KRNNEBLT.
On every hand we hear the har
rowing tales of high cost of living.
Glance through any trade jour
nal and the first thing that blinds
you with despair and fury is the
line in each article: "The price of
this article cannot possibly remain
where it is. Advance in price is cer
tain within the next few days.
Therefore, make your plans accord
ingly." .
And right now we are figuring
on how we can make our paltry
dollars do more than they have for
the past year. We know that a
five dollar bill doesn't bring home
enough bacon to fill the tiniest part
of the old fashioned larder.
Why?
Well, here are some of the rea
sons. And unless we people of the
masses get together and fight this
bird of habit, soaring way out of
reach with prices, we will be unable
to buy the barest necessities of
life, saying nothing of the luxuries,
or the little garnishings which off
set the dullness of everyday ex
istence. In order to please customers and
keep everybody satisfied, the mer
chants have gone way beyond the
limit of reason in their delivery
system. The smallest purchases
have been, until very recently, sent
"special" if the customer desired.
This system of delivery isn't a sys
tem at all but a rank extravagance.
Overhead expense is always
added to the purchase price of an
article, plus a reasonable per cent
of profit. If this overhead expense
is increased by special delivery of
small articles, then the price of
merchandise goes up to meet this
added expense.
Is this system, then, an accom
modation to customers?
No, indeed! It is really an im
positionan imposition with the
consent and approval of the shop
pers; an imposition weighting
down the exchequers which we are
trying to bring up to meet condi
tions. It is a condition that has
grown out of good intentions into
an appalling state of affairs.
Now the government has taken a
hand. It is asking all merchants
and the general public to conserve,
not only food, but energy, and to
eliminate waste of all kind. There
fore, when the merchants reduce
their number of deliveries to one
or two a day, they are not filling
their pockets fat and full with the
money they save. They are helping
their government and most of all
they are helping their customers
by keeping soaring prices down to
a minimum.
By agreeing pleasantly to fewer
deliveries, and co-operating with
each other in every way to elimi
nate waste, we will be putting dol
lars into our own pockets and
creating a good will toward our
fellowbcings.

Every Woman Wants to Know
Grapes.
Grape jelly is the king of jellies,
says today's bulletin of the National
Emergency Food Garden Commis
sion, with which this newspaper is
co-operating in a nation-wide food
conservation movement.
An acid grape is best for jelly. The
sweet, ripe grapes contain too much
sugar. Half-ripe fruit, or equal por
tions of nearly ripe and green grapes,
will also be found satisfactory. Wild
grapes make delicious jelly.
Pick grapes from stems, put !nto
preserving kettle, crush with woodem
potato masher or wooden spoon, heat
slowly, stirring frequently while sim
mering. Cook until fruit is broken
into pieces. Strain through a jelly
bag. To each cup of juice add a cup
of sugar and boil until it thickens on
the edge of a spoon dipped into it
and cooled. Pour into hot jelly
glasses and when cold cover with hot
paraffin.
Grape Jelly in Layers Make some
Niagara and Delaware jelly, also a
small quantity of Concord jelly. In
the bottoms of individual glasses
place a layer of Delaware jelly and
let it harden, then cover with a layer
of Niagara jelly. When this has con
gealed finish with the deep-tinted
Concord jelly. Cool and seal as
usual, When serving as dessert top
with a spoonful of whipped cream and
decorate with a cherry.
Grape Jam Stem, weigh and wash
grapes. Measure out one pound of
sugar for each pound of grapes. Put
grapes in preserving kettle with
enough water to keep from sticking
on bottom. Cook gently one-half to
three-quarters of an hour, press
through colander fine enough to
keep seeds form passing through.
Add sugar, return to kettle, stir well
and cook slowly until it drops from
the spoon in a jelly-like consistency.
Skim if needed and when as thick as
desired turn into gfases.
Ripe Grape Marmalade Stem
grapes; to each half pint allow cup
of sugar. Pulp the grapes and keep
skins. Extract seeds by boiling pulp
until tender, rubbing through fine col
ander. Put pulp juice and skins over
sugar. Boil until very thick, pour
into jars and seal.
Electric Fan in New Role.
The Electric fan has many novel
and useful tasks to do besides keep
ing the room cool in summer. Its
latest task is to assail the high cost
of living by assisting in drying fruits
and vegetable for winter consump
tion. According to the United States
'Department of Agriculture, it has
been found that many sliced veget
ables and fruits when placed in long
trays 3x1 feet and stacked in two
tiers end to end before an electric
fan, can be dried to the requisite
dryness with twenty-four hours.
Some require much less time. For
instance, sliced string beans and
shredded sweet potatoes will dry be
fore a fan running at a moderate
speed within a ffw hours. In many
.cities the electric fan will cost not
more than one-fourth of a cent an
hour to run. The fan should be plac
ed close to the stacks of trays and
they should not be filled so full that
the air cannot pass freely through
them. The fan method has a marked
advantage in that the product keeps
cool owing to evaporation while it is
being dried, thus tending to retain
the color and reduce spoilage.
Bleaching Women's Garments.
White woolen garments that have
become yellow may be bleached by
soaking them several hours in a hot
solution of hyrogen peroxide and
borax. A solution for this purpose
may be made as follows: Hydrogen
peroxide, 1 part; water, 10 parts; and
borax, 1 tablespoon to each gallon of
water.
Well, sed pa, I am glad tht the holi
days is over. Now we can settle down
aggenn with the old shotgun & watch
for the wolf at the door.
I enjoyed the holidays, sed ma. I
always enjoy them. & you were fine
this yeari deerest, sed ma to pa. Yure
old friends Tom & Jerry, that used to
make up moast of yure Christmus,
must have felt awful snubbed & out

They were good old frends in thare
way, sed pa. I wdnt say tljay dident
hand me a lot of cheer, at that. But
I am glad it is now the season of
work & catch up. I will have to do
some terrible hustliiiK to make good,
sed pa, for the mutiny wich I threw
around so lavish becfoar Christmus.
Well, sed ma, it is worth all the
trubbel & mutiny we spend, if we
can bring happiness to our frends &
deer ones. Wen are you going to
ware that luvly purpel tie mother sent

One of these brite days, sed pa.
The sun has to be jest about so brite;
pa sed, to set of! a purpel tie. Usually

I am afrade you doant think much
of yure Chrismus ties, sed Ma.
Oh, indeed I do, sed Pa, indeed I
do. But like all deer things, Pa sed,
thay shud be cherished & not worn
out like a old suit. I see Bobbie has
on his new tie, sed Pa. lt will be
worn out & forgotten beefoar long,
Pa sed, that is not the proper idee of
a Xmas gift.
1 am going to ware the nice hat
you paid for for my Xmas present,
sed Ma.
Oh, sed Pa, that is all rite, a hat
is different, but these ties wich you
have bot for me, sed Pa, will newer be
out of date, at leest not agghenn, sed
Pa. I shall often look at that purpel
one, sed Pa, wen the twilite is purpel
o'er the Lea, Pa sed. It is a. twilite
that we are sad & thotful, Ta sed, &
I may need sumthing to hand me a
good laff.
I hoap you are not hoalding that
purpel tic up to ridi-cool, sed Ma.
I am not, sed Pa, that purpel tie
doscnt need any praise or blame, sed
Pa, it specks for itself, like a bugle,
Pa sed. It smites the senses like a
erth-quaik, Ta sed. Beleeve me deer

to scorn any feebul reemarks wich I
mite see fit to maik aggenst it.
Pa sed he was going to give it to
me beekaus he sed it wud be jest as
good as new wen I grew up.
Advice to Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
How Serious Art Their Objection?
Dear Miss Fairfax: In the last four yean
I have been going about with a young man
whom I have grown to love. I am sure my
love la reciprocated, but In eplte of our mu
tual understanding there are tlmea when I
doubt It.
His parents object to his going with me,
as they are In better circumstances than I.
We have quarreled over this many times
and I have repeatedly asked him to give
me op. If he thought It was his duty. This
he has refused to do, but on the other
hand, If he goes with me his people will
have nothing to do with him.
As I have no mother or father I have
turned to you for advice. A RKADEK.
Why did you doubt your sweetheart's
love? Do you perhaps feel that his caring
for you Is superficial and only too ready
to yield to family objections? On the other
hand, bow serious are the family objections?
For people to forbid their son to marry a
girl simply because she Is poor Is rare
that sort of thing would be done only by
a mercenary and calculating family. Per
haps If you were to meet this young man's
parents you might win them. Perhaps he
is weak and vacillating and is using their
objections as a screen to his own fickleness.
Why not suggest that you would like to
meet his family and try to win their liking.
A Personal Matter.
Dear Miss Talrfax: I am 20 and Inclined
toward the theatrical profession. I have
so far mads good headway but I am go
ini abort with a refined girl, who objects
to my stage career. Will you advise if I
should give up my profession and perhaps
my future success or take the responsibility
of losli.g the girl I love? PUZZLED.
I cannot undertake to decide this ques
tion. It Is a personal one entirely. Tour
girl friend's objection to a stage career may
be founded on old-fashioned Ideas. The
stage era a? tine and as 'dignified a
field as tny other profession.

Did You Ever Hear a Really
Human Reproducing Piano?
The Melville Clark Co. of Chicago has sent to Omaha a pianiste
of note, Miss Ursula Dietrich, to show vou just what a wo.ndeful in
strument the ArOLLO REPRODUCING PIANO is.
Miss Dietrich has played a great many rolls for the Apollo
Player Piano. In each of them the Apollo reproduces her playing
exactly.
Without warning: Misjf Dietrich lets the roll slip by silently
while she herself plays the piano. In a moment she lets the player
start again. She and the Player then play alternately. .
During all this time it is impossible to tell when the human
fingers start or stop unless you watch the player, so natural, so humafl
is the Apollo.
It Is rr astonishing demonstration and extrcnwly important ta
anyone contemplating the purchase of the Player-Pthno.
Miss Dietrich will be at the Hospo Btore for a short time, putting
the Apollo to this severe test.
You are invited to colne to our parlors Friday and Saturday
afternoons between 2 and5 and witness for yourself the almost un
believeable feats accomplished by tho instrument, and you will be
astounded by its human possibilities. .
