1 r Spring Creens
The person who is fond of ' the
spring greens will wonder why it is
necessary to mention the subject at
all. .Spring greens to their admirers
are as much of the spring menu as
are strawberries and asparagus. 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. Hence there is
a new count in favor of the ihumble

1. Pick over and wash the leaves,
plunge into boiling salted water and
boil till leaves are tender, about 25
minutes. Drain, chop, and season
with butter, salt and pepper., Garnish
with slices of hard boiled egg if de
sired, or with chopped egg. .
2. 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. Chop and

Valeska Suratt Soon to Quit Stage for
Man She Loves in Denmark
The Style Barometer Says
"Sateens" , and Famous
Vampire Will Quit
Vamping Because
She Is In Love.
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. They
are usually mothering a brood of
children somewhere children whose
real parents have deserted them or
Heart Beats
By A. K.
She longed
For the life

She dreamed of the cabarets
And Boheimian parties
And the fast gait

So she hied herself
Away to the heart of

And. the home of
The FREE.
She danced until
Her slender feet were sore
And she drank
A few Bronx
Before and after dining
Until her weary brain
Ran riot '
And blood rushed
Singing through her ears.
But she has returned
To the great openness
Of the West

Child Welfare
Workers to
Representatives of Different
Nations Meet In Chicago
May 19-20.
. , . ; a
The eyes of America have been
opened by medical statistics on
drafted men during the war to the
large percentage of physical unfit
ness among young men of the coun
try. 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. This is the
announcement of Mrs. Draper
Smith, chairman' of child 'welfare in
Nebraska under the Federal Depart
ment of Labor. There has not been,
