The 1 person who scorns the humble greens wilt wonder why the editor should fill up a. column with the stuff. They are so utterly plebeian. This article is written for neither party, but for the vast majority who neither like nor dislike the greens, but are more or less indifferent ., to their values. ; For values they have, almost mag ical values, if one stops to consider their various claims. They are the key to bodily well being; or, to be more accurate, they are a part of the key. Certain foods give us heat and energy, the power to keep going; other foods make good the wear and tear on the body, and in the case of children, provide for body growth; still others, and greens be long to this last class, keep our bodies in good physical condition, that is, regulate the body. - What . many people get from medicine, the wise person gets from a judicious selection of his food. Greens are also In the second class of foods, that is, the iron of spinach is of, great value and occurs in large amounts relative to its occurrence in the average foods. The leaves of plants have been found recently to contain a verj valuable substance, different from the values discussed above. That is, the leaves of plants provide what is called an accessory substance which is necessary to health. Only leaves of plants, milk and eggs pro vide this substance.

Pick over and wash very young and tender spinach, put on to cook with a very tiny amount of water, just enough to prevent burning at the start. The spinach will cook in its own juices and less valuable ma terial is lost. If the spinach is cooked in a large amount of water, the -water should be utilized in cream of spinach soup.

By ADELAIDE KENNERLY. 'Valeska Suratt is here 1 Valeska Suratt is in love! Yes, the Valeska of the movies Valeska the vampire Valeska the heartless I . We begged, bribed, coaxed and en treated her to tell us his name, but "nothing doing was all we could get' from Miss Suratt. He is a good looking man with stern features, clipped mustache and stands in a leather frame an expen sive leather frame- on jier dresser. He is a Dane and lives in Denmark and when they are married the stage will see no more of its famous vam pire and New York will sadly miss its gay bird of-plumage its gor geous peacock of the Avenue. "You ask me, what is love," she laughed. "Well, it is an indigestion. I suppose, and I haven't found a remedy, to say nothing of a cure." Her Children. In a minute we shall tell you about clothes for the coming season, for. indeed, is not Valeska Suratt the best style barometer in the country 1 But first we must whisper a word about-her children. Seven:is the number she has educated, cared for and lavished her wealth upon. Some 'of them belong t6 the "most wonder ful brother in all the wprld" and the others are progeny of the "darling est sister God ever created." In fact she declares the seven of them have kept her so busy that there was no time to have children of her own. But she loves theml She adores them! She is mad about theml Life isn't worth a cent without theml . She dislikes the stage and fiendish roles, but when they are given to her and a contract with many figures presented for signature, she "digs in and does her best" What she .real ly is ambitious to play is a Japanese or Chinese role. Now for the clothes and fashion's forecast. Blue and White Gingham. Four years ago Valeska Suratt made the checked gingham popular yea, even famous. She was car tooned and sketched and New York papers and magazines had stories about her blue and white , checked gingham dress and parasol to match. Then she had other ging hams and plain organdies and dimi ties. Buyers for New York stores tell how she brought ginghams into favor and the quality up to its present state of finesse. Four years have elapsed and we, of Omaha, are buying it for the first time in large quantities. " . 1 "Tell me something I Where shall, I find a good dressmaker who can make me a sateen dress? I am bringing out sateens this season be cause they are so pretty and prac ticable," she parenthesised between relevant remarks. , Then Miss Suratt brought forth a lovely piece of sateen, a dark blue ground with dots. White collar and cuffs will be used to relieve the one piece frock. All expensive clothes owned by this popular actress are worn at private parties, dinners and abroad. A few are seen on the stage. The wonderful natural Kolinsky coat which she wears in her act, "The Purple Poppy," is valued at $3,000, and the only one "in captivity."- A $10,000 chinchilla coat she has worn but five times and says, with a wave of her hand and the Suratt smile: "Oh, bother about such expensive things as chinchilla coats and pearls. I am going to sell them and spend the money on little kids who haven't shoes on their feet or food in their stomachs." Going back a bit to one of Miss Baking Powder Miss Suratt is wearing this gorgeous $3,000 Kolinsky coat in her act, "The Purple Poppy." It is the only one of its kind in "captivity." Suratt's "bird of plumage" pictures; "The Soul of Broadway" more than $10,000 was spent on clothes. The scene where she rolled down the steps left her a semi-invalid for five months. Naturally she will take only roles without rolls since that picture. I , . I suppose I have been about as greatly misunderstood as . any wom an on earth," said the actress appro- pos of nothing as she pushed back her hair in an effort to conceal two unruly tears. "I am not a vampire at all. I have so much heart that 1 must laugh with a chuckle, hollowly, heartlessly so that the sound of my own voice will keep me from being too sentimental. Why they pick my type for vamp roles I do not know. It is the baby doll, the innocent looking little blonde with the big blue eyes , who does the vamping. We of the dark type are watched, therefore, we could not 'get by' with much vamping if we tried. It is the guileless, who 'put it over' in reality. We professional vamps have a pur pose in life we have ambition to do our parts well, but I have yet to see the first professional yamp who really is a love thief at heart.

Sorry I Terribly sorry to shatter all the lovely horrible dreams which have given us so much to talk about I But we can only tell what we find in Valeska Suratt off stage. And if mothering children and wearing sateen dresses knocks the props from under onr well established no tions of Valeska, out the props must come. We might as well don sateen and fall in line. withsFifth Avenue's style Barometer. Alumni Dinner.

One-third of all men examined were found defective in some way and most of these defects Could have been cured or . prevented in child hood. The facts are appalling and the moral apparent. Child welfare movements have taken on wider growth and deeper significance since the truth has become known, and the United States government itself has entered actively into a campaign for disseminating knowledge relating to betterment of children and the moth ers of children. . Ten distinguished experts in the field of child welfare will be in Chi cago for public meetings and confer ences at the Congress hotel, May 19 and 20, guests of the United States in response to invitation of Presi dent Wilson, Secretary of Labor Wilson and Miss Julia Lathrop of the Children's Bureau.
