EPISODE No. 8599 in the great
serial, "The Perils of Pauline."
Not Pauline of movie fame
ttjis time, but a real girL Miss Paul
ine Settle was the central figure in a
thrilling escapade the first day she
was in Omaha, ft was Sunday and
a dashing young lieutenant who was
stationed at Fort Crook had been en
tertained at dinner at the hospitable
Settle quarters at the post Dinner
over, the pretty young daughter of
the colonel proposed an auto ride- to
the young man. Needless to say, he
was delighted; who wouldn t have
been? f
They sped along over the frozen
ground in the roomy car, Miss Settle
driving. The young officer was very
happy, the day was ideal, his com
panion one 'of the most charming
girls he had ever met and life was
very sweet at that moment.
Speeding through the sleepy little
hamlet of Bellevue they soon left the
woods and fields behind them and
found .themselves on the main street
of our newly-acquired South Side. I
am afraid that the pretty little driver
was too much engrossed in conversa
tion with the khaki-clad man at her
side at this moment for crash!
When they came to they found they
had run into another machine and
before you can' think a crowd had
gathered.
A policeman was soon on the
scene, wno insisted ' on the appear
ance or the young lady and her com
panion at the police station immedi
ately. It was a very embarrassing
situation, tor. as we all know, when
one of the minions of the. law com
mands he must be obeyed.
Mellihcia was - not advised as to
the amount of the fine, but wheif
pretty Miss Settle was asked if she
was hurt she replied:
"No, but I wish I had Wen, then
I would have gotten sympathy instead
of a scolding." ;

F you can achieve such an effect as
this in the name of economy, why
worry over the high cost of living?
This frock, although striking enough
for a "brand new" evening dress, was
really remodeled from a gown of
black charmeuse and net. Over a
corsage of flesh-colored chiffon is set.
hrst, a tucker of black net, outlined
with jet beads and, next, a suspender
and girdle of jet. Three long panels
of net are outlined with bands of jet
and punctuated with a jet motif.
The$ fall over a narrow skirt of
blackXharmeuse, which may be easily
fashioned from a full skirt of yester
year. So many, many women have on
hand dresses of chlrmeuse with over
skirts of net. Why not make them
over like this? "
When Milady Goes Shopping
This Week You May Buy
With Dimes as Well
as Dollars, If You
Know How.
By ADELAIDE KENNERLY.
W1
HEN the springtime comes the
the enthusiastic housekeeper
sets her brain machinery
working and Schemes are evolved for
arranging the house for that cool-and-comfortable
appearance. But right
now, with the thermometer shooting
way down below zero, with the fur
nace going at full blast and the storm
windows iocked tightly, we want
not the cool-and-comfortable feeling,
but the warm-and-cozy home.
And it is this time of the year when
gray clouds hang low, when spirits
are dulled and the home looks bare
and gloomy. Even the grate fire looks
cheerless unless the doors and win
dows are hung with soft draperies.
. At Your Own Price.
Whether your curtains be costly or
inexpensive rests with yourself. You
can buy, in the shops this week, -curtains
and portieres in elaborate de
sign, or you can buy the materials,
hem them yourself and add greatly to
the appearance of the home. Carry
out color schemes or use a shade
which tends to brighten spirits and
sooth restless nerves.
Materials for drapt.ies will be great
ly reduced during this week, and 4here
will be offerings in soft scrim, ecru
or white, with flowered pink or blue
borders, just the thing for bedroom
hangings.. Dressing table scarfs and
sofa cushions to match make the bed
room a cheerful place.
xl This Week1.
Study your room, then look through
the shops ths week while "they
are so greatly reduced in price. You
may find remnants at . a small cost
which will fit in nicely.
The housekeeper and Jiomemaker
with an conomic turn of mind will
make her home into a dear little cozy
place, at small expense,, if she is a
hustler and takes advantage of price
reductions.
Women Will Work for
Legislators Who Vote for
Prohibition Amendment
To center all efforts toward the
election of men to 4he next state leg
islature who would vote favorably on
the national prohibition " amendment
which will be submitted to the state
legislatures, was advocated by Mrs. C.
J. Roberts in her talk to a joint meet
ing of all the local Women's Chris
tian Teniperance unions held this aft
ernoon m First Presbyterian church.
Mrs. Roberts and Mrs. William Berry
were delegates to the national con
vention in Washington last month.
"We must not be blinded and think
the temperance fight is already won.
We must pledge the endorsement of
every man who is to serve in the next
legislature," said Mrs. Roberts. '
Mrs. Roberts said a friendly law
suit would probably be instigated by
Congressman Randall of California to
test the constitutionality of the seven
year time limit set on the ratification
of the national constitutional amend
ment. .
The temperance advocates vfish the
question settled before the work of
securing ratifications, is begun, in
order to preclude the possibility of
the matter being held up in the courts
if the fight is close near the end of
the seven years.

Don't scrape pots and pans with

Worth While Tips
'Scrambled eggs and fried onions
can be combined to make a savory
dish.
Picture postcards if saved will be
fine amusement for the convalescent
child.
Allow one-half cupful of flaked oats
for each person when making por- -ridge.
One teaspoonful of salt seasons
one quart of soup, sauce or custard
mixture.
A straw hat shape is as good as
any for winter if covered with stylish '
mateial.
Grease stains can be removed from
leather by applying the beaten white
of an egg. v "
There are 20 vay3 of serving
canned salmon and 20 ways of serv
ing apples.
Lobster salad can' have chopped
celery mixed with the lobster to make
it go further.
One-half cupful of finely ' ground
nuts added to a custard makes a de
licious crust
A teaspoonful .of good brandy
added to chocolate will bring out the
flavor greatly.
Cookies should be put in a cloth-
lined stone jar when hot if you would
keep them soft.
One way to use the old stockings
which are worn at the heels and toes
is to make leggins of them.
It is surprising how much new
laces will add to the appearance of
old shoes that have been resoled. ,

Do You Know
A salt producing lake near Salinas
station, on the Tampico divisicij of
the Mexican Central railway ,72 miles
west of San Luis Potosi, is one of
the wonders of Mexico.- It may be
termed a two story lake, for at times
there is a lake of fresh water over
lying the salt lake. A watertight rool
of green mud separate the freih
from the salt water.
