Friends! List and hear
This time o' the year
When chilly wiiids bustle and shout
And Jack Frost sneaks 'round
To whiten the ground
And Autumn leaves scurry about
Take time to remember
That soon comes December
Oh! I quote, Orphan Annie "Watch Out"
For when the time's past
And it's Xmas at last
You will wish for " more time, " I've no
doubt ,
Take time by the forelock
And make out a cJiart
And take your chart 'round to the shops
If you're wise I'm surmising
There's much that's surprising
And it's best to be forehanded-lots! 1

DEAR READERS: "The melan
choly days have come." "Mel
lancholy," no.isensel The poet never
would have said it if he could have
experienced the beautiful, crisp Oc
tober weather we have in Nebraska.
October days are the happiest, jol
liest days in all the year. They're
the days when one's glad to be alive;
when one has "pep," "ginger," "zest"
to do things. Wonderful days these
are for shoppingt Why, one can
scoot about from shop to shop and
not feel the least fatigue. And oh I,
such lovely new styles and fresh mer
chandise as the shops are showing
this Fall. 'Tis right to dress well
and spend normally. When we buy
new clothes we benefit others besides
ourselves the salespeople, the shop
owners, manufacturers and any num
ber of other persons who work to
help others to dress well.
A clever little Omaha woman has
invented some perfectly sanitary toys
dolls, dogs and kitties covered with
stockinette or eiderdown. The cov
ers "peel off" and can be washed.
SO MANY inquiries have come
about the new Fall suitings that
I thought a word right here would
not be amiss. They're surely hand,
some far handsomer, in fact, both in
quality and riehness of tone than
ever befpre. I always go to Mr.
Hazen in the Dress Section of
Thompson-Belden's for information
of this kind, for there's no store in
town that has a more wonderful dis
play of fabrics. He showed me
broadcloths and velour de Laines, 56
inches wide, at $3.75 per yard. Poiret
twill (that beautiful twill material
with a broadcloth finish), 52 inches
wide, $4.00 per yard. Gunniburl (a
fine basket weave with a velvet touch)
56 inches wide at $3.75 per yard. An
other warm, nappy material that is
lovely is crystal velour (silk and wool
mixture) 56 inches wide, $4.50 per yd.
There are ten shades--all the rich
Autumn tones in each of these
weaves.
Hockey Bags are among the latest
arrivals m Bagdom. Elongated bags
of satin and raffia, in which you can
put your knitting or your golf balls.

HAVE you seen the new show
tractive and just the kind of place one
loves to go and browse about for an
hot or so and pick up inexpensive
little gittie things tor Christmas. Odd
bits of dainty china, cunning bud
vases, baskets oh I just innumerable
ducky things, ihere s even a table
full of toys for the kiddies.
DEAUTIFUL indeed are the new
fall and winter coats displayed
at F. W. Thome's Uptown Shop, 1812
Farnam, in originations fascinatingly
novel and new. Made of silvertones,
pom-poms, velours, broadcloths and
novelties; in thedressier and more ex
clusive models fur is lavishly used.
Since the popularity of the one-piece
frock brings the coat into prominepce,
l know you II be triad to hear of this
complete display. Better see Thome's
nv' -
THINK of itl hats right at the
season's zenith for only $2.50,
$3.75 and $5.00. Good-looking hats,
too, of nice, soft velvets and felts,
tailored or dressy affairs, which would
certainly appeal to those wishing to
look smart and yet feel that they
must economize these war-time days.
I saw these hats in the new Millinery
Section opened up in .Benson &
Thome's just Inside the 16th street
entrance. By the way, if you visit
this section, be sure and ask to see
the Angora skating sets of-bright
Scotch plaids and vivid, warm, plain
colors they're certainly stunning on
young girls 1
("ITTINTER is my favorite season,"
remarked a pretty woman
friend of mine the other day. Ah,
now I know the secret of such a dec
laration she had seen the new FURS
at Thompson-Belden's and "Husband"
had promised her a beautiful set. For
real sumptuousness I've really never
seen anything to equal the fur pieces
on display at this store. Mr. Nichols,
the New York buyer, was fortunate
in making arrangements with an ex
clusive furrier, so that Omaha could
have the same elegant fur mod
els as are shown in that hand
some Fifth Avenue store. There
are broad stole effects, graceful
throws, coatees and capes of regal
Russian sable, Scotch mole trimmed
with ermine, Kolinsky, stone marten,
taupe fox and other luxurious furs,
with a splendid variety of muffs to
match any neckpiece shown. If
you're considering "furs," do by all
means see those at Thompson-Belden's.
SPEAKING of blouses, I wish you
could see the stunning new
Madame Flanders models which that
smart Uptown Shop of F. W.
Thome's is showing. Everything in
this shop is so fresh and new, and,
best of all, moderately priced. A
clever little Georgette crepe model at
$8.50, and one at $7.45, particularly
impressed me. The former was in a
lovely coral shade, hand-embroidered
and trimmed in old-blue the combi
nation was simply perfect I The other
a two-tone blouse of navy blue and
bisque embroidered in blue. Oh, I
must remind you of the suit blouses
that Thome's is showing. With the
popularity this season for suits,
blouses are very important. This
store is at 1812 Farnam, you know,
by the Welcome Arch.
taXTE HAVE sixty-six different
styles of plaiting," declared
Mr. Ver Mehren of The Ideal Button
and Pleating Co. when I visited that
interesting shop on the 3d floor of the
Brown Block this week. One of the
young women workers was just put
ting on the finishing touches to a
lovely pearl-gray taffeta frock, and I
noted the beautiful graduated plaits
in the skirt, from a broad effect at the
hem narrowing to tiny plaiu at the
waist. I could not refrain from ex
claiming at the painstaking care that
must have been exercised in making
each, plait so perfectly exact. I cer
tainly 'io recommend the work done
at this shop..
T AINTY, silken underthings of Yu--
ztn, Kinchi and Habutai silk,
exquisitely embroidered as only the
clever Japanese know how to em
broider, are recent importations at
The W. H. Eldridge Co.'s Oriental
Shop, 1318 Farnam. Wonderful things
for bridal trousseau gifts! Robes de
nuit, $8.50, $12.50 and $14.00. Envel
ope chemise, $9.50 and $10.00.
"VTECESSITY is the mother of
XN invention" is well exemplified
in the new Economy Department of
Napier's Booterie, which was created
for the purpose of having an outlet
for' broken sizes and discontinue-!
lines. To begin with, this depart
ment comprises over 2,000 stylish
boots, in patent leather, black kid,
bronze kid and a limited assortment
of colored kid boots in two-tone ef
fects. While no one line is com
plete, you will find plenty of sizes
from which to make a selection.
Every pair stamped "NAPIER" is an
assurance of quality. These stylish
boots are at one fixed price $4.90.
Mail orders will be cheerfully filled
from the Economy Department.
Zantine is the name of a new lining
silk gotten out by a distinguished silk
firm. It comes in vivid colors and
gay patterns, and also very subdued
cjffacu: 2.50 and $2.75 ner yard.
IN THE clear and bright October,
Tho' the days are chill,
And tho' WAR makes most minds
sober,
Hearts are happy still,
For the "PRIVILEGE" all are given
Both to give and do.
If you've not a LIBERTY BOND,
Then it's "UP to YOU,"
For the boys who're in the trenches
Those who're at the front
To save ihe world their LIVES are
giving.
They must never want.
"Buy a Bond," a loving service
Share with them your treasure;
Your "Earthly Goods" are'nt good in
heaven.
Give in goodly measure.
fp OIAY I discovered at Orchard &
Wilhelm s a very modish Break
fast Room suite that strikes an orig
inal note, both in the matter of style
and color. The table top am' stretch
ers were enameled a midnight blue,
the legs were in old ivory, a signifi
cant decoration on the bouquet order
lent life and interest to the whole.
Th chairs and sideboard, of course,
followed the same idea. I find that
other breakfast suites for this season
have just as fresh and original color
schemes, being worked out in canary
yellow, with bright buds and flowers,
black with Chinese decorations, black
and Pekin red, with golden orna
ments; old cane yellow and black,
decorated with flower and leaf de
sign. There was one delightful ivory
suite of the cottage type decorated
with pretty flowers. Generally, the
breakfast suite consists of five pieces
(the table and four chairs) The buf
fet or sideboard is, of course, very
happily included where there is space
in the breakfast room or alcove.
Done up in a pretty gift box is A
CHILD'S-LAUNDRY BAG. "To
make a duty seem a pleasure, This
laundry bag will be a treasure, and
teach the little child to know where
soiled things always ought to go."
Price $1.20.

"P LAYS ducts with herself on two
pianosl Yes, that is the remark
able stunt which Miss Ursula Diet
rich, tha eminent concert-pianiste, is
doing down at the A. Hospe Music
Store, 1513 Douglas Street. I saw
and heard her myself last Wednesday
afternoon, and I must say I was de
lightfully entertained for an hour or
so with the recital she gives to
demonstrate the Art Apollo Player
Piano. This remarkable instrument
was actually made to reproduce in a
living, vital way the veryjeeling arid
expression of the artist herself. I
must confess that heretofore I've been
a bit prejudiced and felt that an elec
tric piano meant mechanism, but I've
quite changed my mind since hearing
Miss Dietrich's playing. Drop in, any
day this eek and witness the almost
unbelievable feats accomplished by
the Apollo.
Candlesl We don't eat them like
the Esquimaux, but we certainly burn
them. Candles of beeswax decorated
with bees big, red ones a foot and a
half high and two inches thick. Ital
ian Renaissance candles at $2.50 each.
DO YOU know that "Spinster"
vases and candlesticks are out
of style? Everything's in pairs now
at Orchard & Wilhelm's Gift ShopV
When I want to get points on the
correctness of this, that or the other
in furnishings. I go to Orchard &
Wilhelm's Gift Shop. They are in
such close touch with all the big dec
orators of the country that I know I
am at a western source of artistic
interior decoration.
And speaking of CANDLES, "I
like to sit in the candlelight. I'm sen
timental, I confess, And candles add
to romance lots, Besides, they make
the light bills less."
OASKETS! Baskets! Baskets! a
whole table full of them, and fas
cinatingly decorated with colored tas
sels, rings and beads from teenty
weenty ones to big ones in which you
can put your knitting or mending.
Priced 60c, 95c, $1.25, $1.60 and $2.00,
at that interesting little Japanese
shop, Vhe Nippon Importing Co., 218
South '8th St.
I SAW them advertised in a maga
zine, and thought them so
uniquely clever that I'd about decided
to send for one, when I just happened
into the Alia Shop, 207 South 18th St.,
and there, to my delight, were those
same door-knockers Parrots, Owls,
and Cardinal Birds painted in bright
colors to reproduce nature, and priced
$1.75. . There is a gnome and a chan
ticleer in this same painted iron ware
whichjvill act as door-stops. Price
$5.00. When you see them you'll
want to put them on your Xmas list.
O NE of those dandy little Military
wrist watches with luminous
hands and dials, such as I saw in
Arnold H. Edmonston's pretty Jew
elry Shop, 2d floor Securities Build
ing, would certainly make some sol
dier boy happy I know. They're
priced $15.00 and up, and you can buy
one on the easy payment plan if you
lite,
Found 1 A head. Somewhat like
the French ones we lost since the war
began. This one is of china and is
intended -to use to top a pin cushion,
lamp or telephone screen. Made in
America and cost $2.00. I mention it,
as it may give . ou an idea for Xmas.
JUST to relieve your mind a bit
about a present for the Soldier
Boy brother, or friend, I'm going to
suggest one of those practical mili
tary safety money belts which are
being sold at Lucien Stephen's Shop,
1901 Farnam. These belts have three
securely fastened pockets for valua
bles, are lined with oil silk, making
them perspiration-proof. Priced $1.00.
'
If you want to know where things
in these items can be found (those
where the shop's name is not men
tioned),. I'll be glad to tell you if
you'll drop me a line, or 'phone Ty

IN THE height of the season it is
very rarely that one finds exclu
sive models in suits at reduced prices,
so I was delighted to find some very

rvISCOVERED! The otlTer day
when I was making my rounds
of the various shops and offices in the
Securities Building I came to a door "
marked "Dr. J. F. Rausch, FOOT
SPECIALIST." My curiosity being
aroused, I stepped, inside and met the
doctor, whom I found to be an intel
ligent man with an interesting story
to tell "Chiropody," he said, "is a
branch of orthopedic surgery, and is a
subject which should be regarded
with interest by everyone who wishes
to enjoy perfect foot health." He
then showed me his operating room,
which is splendidly equipped with all
the modern appliances for the correc
tion of foot troubles. Dr. Rausch has
agreed to give us each week a brief
talk on the care of the feet and will
endeavor to point the way to that
foot comfort which many have not
experienced since ch'ldhood days.

Sleek broadcloths, able allies. J
uame fashion flaunts her colors,
And on your taste relies.

Beaded adornments,
Exquisite lace for dresses,
Costly ornaments;
Also suitings natty,
Much-wanted blues and blacks,
Supported by new browns and reds. .

Dame Fashion bids you welcome'
All these and myriads more.
Come, make your own selection
From rich Dame Fashion's store.
