Butter and Egg Prices Up As Market Shows Stength i f 1 a? button' shoes are still preferred by many, as they are not alone prac tical, but give to the foot a feeling of dressiness found in no other shoe.

The Best Day in the Week We make Ice Cream as good as we know how, every day of the week, but for Sunday our Ice Cream makers unite to produce a Special treat in keeping with the day. This Sunday, ws offer VANILLA NUT Vanilla Ice Cream, with Best English Walnuts It makes a truly delightful dessert. Serve it with Sunday's dinner. Every one, from baby to grandmother, and back again, will enjoy it. It will be necessary for the house wife to forget all her finer feelings for her pocketbook this week when she goes to market. Butter and eggs are vieing with each other to see which can reach the highest point,' with a slight ad vantage in favor of the latter. The best butter on the market is being quoted at (8 cents and the second grade at 58:ents. Oleomar gerine is following the lead of but ter as it soars upward and is bring- CUB PKS On chin.

Fresh eggs of the guaranteed kind are selling from 72 to 75 cents per dozen and are hard to get at that, while the select storage variety are being sold at 49 cents. It is pre dicted that within the next few days we shall see the egg market hover ing about the 80-cent mark or above. Other lines of produce, however, are being offered on the market in plentiful quantities and at prices which are more reasonable. Fine, crisp Louisiana breakfast radishes are shown at 5 cents per bunch, endive, two bunches for 5 cents; head lettuce at 10 to 15 cents per head, and leaf lettuce, celery, parsley and water cress at two bunches for a dime.

Fancy Yakima Valley Jonathan apples are quoted at $3.25 per box, Staymen Winesaps at $3.35, and Washington Delicious at $3.85. The prices of dried fruits of all kinds are about the same as quoted last week and there is but little if any change in the prices of nuts, al though there seems to be a pre valent opinion that as the holiday season approaches there may be a little raise in price of these com modities. Personals Lieut. Emil Willrodt, who has been a guest at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Franklin 'an Burgh on a short leave, returned Thursday to Mount Clemens, Mich., where he is station ed as an aerial observer.

The big size of the loaf permits the utmost economy in fuel, labor and materials. It assures you the biggest food value for your money and bread of certain purity and cleanliness. It is a saving loaf to use, for it holds its freshness and flavor. It is all eaten. To get this better bread all that is necessary is to say &0fa& and not just "a loaf of bread." At the End of the Day IJ j lJ 111 iff I i 7 By GERTRUDE BERESFORD. The war worker, at the end of a long day, wants to slip from her uniform into something soft and feminine. Nothing could take her thoughts further from the miseries of war than this negligee of coral chiffon. Coral has always beei. an ex quisite home color, but never was it more lovely than in this boudoir gown, which is maJe over a slip of flesh pink meteor. The skirt of coral chiffon is knife pleated. Bands of cream lace are let into these pleats at well balanced intervals. The coatee of chiffon ends in three pan els, one at the back and two narrow ones at the sides. The long, loose sleeves are veritable "angel" sleeves. Bands of lace are laid on the coatee to form a very becoming decolletage. Around the waist a band of deep rose velvet ribbon passes twice and ties in front. A little bunch of pas tel flowers shading from coral to peacock blue, yellow and pink, spans the pleats across the front. The dainty cap is made of cream lace. Where it elongates at the side two pink tassels are suspended. An other bunch of flowers is placed on the cao just above the brow. Sergt. Le Roy Rasmussen is here on a four-day furlough from Camp Funston. Woman's Clinic Writes Omaha Worker in France Friend of Relief Mrs. John R. McDonald of Omaha received in a letter from her friend. Miss Mary Humphrey, perhaps the most graphic description of the work of the American Women's Hospital unit in France that has come to this city. Omaha women physicians will sponsor a tag day Saturday to raise $5,000 to equip a motor dis pensary for this worlr'. Miss Hum phrey, who is a daughter of the late Supreme Judgt Humphrey of Illi nois, writes in part: The people liave boon ringing the gar den Bate anil coming since 7:30. The wait ing room, which la '-benches" we made and etalned. in the hall whloh runa through the house soon fills and they overflow Into the garden. Mine and often t"n baby car riage are in the gravel paths. The aide takes names of old patients and hunts out th"ir history cards. The Interpreter. Mts fin ni Howen of Pierre. S.

We are all in long aprons of white, sleeved and high necked, and in whit, veils. Our dressing room Is enameled white, and as clean as a pin. and fresh paint, too. put on by ourselves, all but the last coat, and fresh paper. The pa tients see one of the two doctors, are advised and given medicine or prescrlp tlon as seems best. I mix and prepare such medicine as we give out, and they are ent into us to be treated. Three of us are as busy as cranberry merchants There is everv kind of woe, "boboB" that the l-'-cnch child Is so addicted to. tvade encrusted, t. b. glands broken down and abscesses, varli-ose ulcers, broken bones suppurating ears, eyes inflamed, cancer o breast, cuts and torn &esh; a finger that we finally had to amputate after weeks of trying to save, wee babies with hernia, oh, so many.

Interests me most, as I have been very close to work for its cure In the last ten years at home. We are find ing much. I hesitate to say how much Omaha Girl to Provide Xmas Cheer in France An Omaha girl, Miss Mona Cow ell, has undertaken the gigantic task of providing Christmas cheer for 12,000 refugees in Le Puy, Haute Loirs, France. Two thousand of the number are children. Miss Cowell's father, Robert Cow ell, has sent to France a large shipment of Christmas decorations and a check of the usual Cowel! generosity. While he is making no fotmal ap peal, Mr. Cowell will be glad to transmit to France any donations Omahans wish to give. Subscrip tions from 50 cents to -$50 have al ready been given. Miss Cowell, who was one of the first Red Cross workers sent fronf Omaha, and a college friend atVas sar, Miss Gertrude SpauMing, of Cold Springs, N. Y., are in charge of the work at Le Puy, which the Omaha girl describes as the "love liest of towns, a dream city nestled in the hills and as old as time." The wife of Winston Churchill, the English statesman, is one of the most versatile women in society, and as a platform speaker she has few equals. She has a finished style of oratory, and though usually she only speaks on occasions to whic;h the lighter vein is suiub'e, she can be, if necessary, most earnest and impressive.

We have used al) our layettra we brought with us. and been supplied again and have written for more. Our mothers are working In uslnes, many of them, and the babies come between the days of work: so, since there t. not time to make garment., our lovely oiks from home are doubly prised. The politeness of the children and their grateful paents, the expression of appre ciation from state authorities, makes us very eager to do all we can; tt i truly a nover ending Joy to see how grateful and humble the people can be and they do not abauae nor take advantage. This glorious land has never had a poverty stricken class a. we see them at home, and charity 1. not organised and dis pensed as I. ours Church and city look after dependents, and others care for themselves through honest labor. Every man. woman, and child work. In the fields and factorlea. We have as ma; j a 100 or more In one I.uneville clinic which are three a week. Then at Elnvllle, much nearer the front, we have about 20; at Dumbssle. J5 to 4i; St. Nicholas. 30: Hloulvllle. 20 to 30. This Is the newest one. We start another In a few days now. so every day will be full. We go to Vltrlmont, the hamlet being rebuilt by Mrs. Crocker of Cali fornia, several Sundays to look after .00 Inhabitant. . We have a Ford Camlonette and a Quaker chauffeur. We carry drugs and supplies In a big wooden box we made ourselves and the clinics are held In the Hotel de Vllle. the Malrle or In a hospital for French wounded, wherever we could best serve the women and children. And now the work la growing beyond belief. We see o much to do. We hope to open a house to nurse and feed and care for early t. b. tn children. We want to .end more of our children to Toul, $5 miles away, for operation, and there we can r.ow aend our maternity cases. We expect soon to have a dentist here to care for our many troubled people. No Dental Care France has never had the dental eare that we In America think so important, and since the war. there ha. been none at all In such communities as ours. There are all the rheumatism, and poison, of such conditions, and the young women who have had, their teeth brutally extract ed so their gums are badly contracted, would make you sick. And then, the most wonderful part of our work, and for which we are most grateful, 1. what w are able to do for our own boys. You see we really are very near fe front line, a great and famous division (The Rainbow) that was named for the sign of promise set In the skies, h.a been on the Job day and night since March. They move In and out of the line, back a few kilometer, for a rest and up again. They have done gloriously In bravery. In fineness of spirit, .a bur generous sportsmanlike point of view anil' a sharing of responsibility. I am so prourt of them, and to belong to the same land of high Ideals that It fairly choke, me somctlems. They are so astounded when we accont them, for they think our uni forms French, or at least only English, and when they hear good old middle west, they fairly weep. They do weep In fact, sometime, a. they sit In our liv ing room, and fall to talking of home. nd the days that must pass before ther will go back. They all know they are going to face death sooner or laier. In friendly or In cruel form, and they are vory young and boyish and lonely. Mrs. Diukson Is really quite unusual with them, for she had so much social experience on lop of her own motherly love for a 19-year-nld boy who has served his year In the field ambulance. She understands these little Irish Mikes, the eust sides, I ho boasting Lraggarl, the gentleman from ole Virjjlnia, the lads who hesitate when we ask where they came from because they have only a rural delivery address In Iowa or Arizona. She give, them doughnuts she lias made herself, and tea In cues from our local century-old potteries. Kiddies v.-ho never were even at a county fair, she p!,i.a to, and romps with and feeds and listens to. These are the great things: and then the passing of the cigarettes, the sympathy, the exchange of hopes and Ideas and plans. They all want to talk about their girl, and their mothers. It la surprising, even to me. how strong an institution mother is officer, tell u. about their letters home to their mothers. 1 have taken kodak, of some and sent to- their mother., and It Is glo rious hew mch It means. The French do not know what to make of our men their tenderness and sweetness to chil dren and women. When they are billeted, aa fr-ey are here near the line, with families they help the women work, and Join In the family life. My brother fret, because the child In hi. hou.e I. sick, and hi. colonel says all hi. boys are helping their townfolks .kin willows the chief Industry, don. on the door- -step or In front of the open fire of a cool evening. Never a day passes that there are not boy. her., and often for meals. Thing, are happening that I can not write. We hear gun. often though the city ha. only been .helled twice since we aim and then only a few people were killed. It ha. been a quiet lector for three year., and here many thousands come for re.t day by day. We ... them, so weary but so hard and sturdy, tramping In the shattered bits of regiments bacic to fill up their ranks for the new attack. France I. ainglng the song of victory. In spite of the losses so staggering the assur ance that this 1. th. list supreme effort. I truly believe over here we are exhil arated and glorified, while yon at home are plunged In the depths of despair. The British losses are supreme, and our own boys who went up some time .go hav. tasted the cup to the dregs; but Ooa has begun th. march back, and .very Frenchman la full of courage and fattn. There I. a new quality that enter. Into men not blood but valor flow. In their vein, at such an hour. W. know thl. la the la.t chapter of the hell that ha. raged so long. It may be long page after page; but It Is the end, and ao France holds with her heart torn, being exposed to the front while her eye. look back at the hordes that are marching up to help her. You can not think what It mean, to be an American and know that on u. rests the hope of the world. My pstlent women whose men have gone, who have wee babies, and are alone to faco the new world that already France see. opening before her: my young girls loverless going into factories doing a man's work dressed In breeches and germ ed with powder; 'my proud boya aching to be men and lit the war; the babies fat and rosy, or thin and blue and acaley; sit the people live only for the things we have sung and wrlten about but never dreamed we should be living and making come toie. This is something of what it means r be In France today, and nothing seems too much to give. We are very busy, very happy, very sure we are rlghr. Can life hold anything moref Thank you for all of us, for the layette, and the love you have put Into them. Will you tell your friends, dear American women, the new meaning of these words, how deeply we appreciate the thoughtfulncss, the self sserlflce of time and work of your hands, how grateful our mothers are, how sweet our babie. are? Should anyone want to do anything epecial. we can use money best of ell; It pay. for medicine, food and auppllea and .hipping Is se difficult. RECONTRUCTION AIDS NEEDED. Marian Bonsall Davis, in her ar ticle "The Woman's Battlefront," in the Red Cross Magazine for Decern-, ber, says: "There is a service open to hun dreds of women. The government needs reconstruction aids, who are civilian employes of the medical de partment of the army. Their work will belong to one of two general classes: The occupational work, which will train men to take up regular vocational training; or the physiotherapeutic work, which deals essentially with physical recon struction. This latter requires train ing which the government is pre pared to give. The surgeon gener al's office, Division of Reconstruct tion , will answer all requests for in formation regarding application, courses of training, pay and all otbsit particular!." i 3 "I W -it-
