THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: MAY 25, 1919.
IF
For the June Bride.
NEXT in importance to the ex
treme care in the selection of
the trousseau is the necessity of ex
ercising discretion in the choice of a
wardrobe trunk in which to pack the
dainty thingi so they may be kept
in their original fresh condition. Be
cause of its cushion top, which elim
inates any possibility of wrinkling
the clothes, as well as many other
comfort features which tend toward
supreme satisfaction, the Hartmann
wardrobe trunk has long been the
accepted wardrobe of June brides.
Give Freling & Steinle, 1803 Far
nam, an opportunity of demonstrat
ing its various features. You'll be
entranced with its delightful possi
bilities. Inspired by the High Hope and
Great Joy
OF JUNE, the month of happiness,
are the rarely lovely gifts in the
irt department of A. Hospe & Co.,
1513 Douglas. Artistic mirrors
whose polychrome finish frames are
garlanded with flowers or conven
tional designs are shown in long,
narrow panels and wider rectangles
to fit the corner in the front hall or
the between-the-doors space in the
dining room. Standing lamps in
Pompeian designs and Adam periods
charm with their beauty expression.
Candlesticks exquisitely decorated
in colored fruit and flower designs
hold candles of fascinating loveli
ness of varied selection. So har
moniously does the polychrome fin
ish with its rare color expression
blend with all furnishings, and so
gracefully moulded are their richly
colored relief designs, that theirs is
a beauty vogue amply justified.
'
Infinitely fascinating, gifts are to
be found in the offering of Cordova
leather articles unusually charming
gift expressions. Folds, picture
frames to be carried in the pocket,
purses, ultra-smart, many of them
daintily inexpensive.

wide girdle on a draped crepe de

and button-weighted, lend charm to
a georgette "filminess." Spun from
threads of utter winsomeness is a
square meshed net, embroidered
with picpt ribbons of crisp loveli
ness. While one wonders and then
loves the scalloped ingenuousness
of a lace frilled organdie.

A Dream of Wonderment."
SUGGESTING old-time days in
their daintiness and charm of ex
quisite loveliness are three rings
which Mr. Edholm of the Edholm
Jewel Shop, Sixteenth and Harney,
showed me this week. "Just made
for the sweet girl graduates," said
this connoisseur of jewels and
truly never were more lovely gift
conceptions fashioned. Squarecut
is the diamond in the first with
full cut melee stones at each side
in a platinum ring of daintily
pierced Greek Key design. Equally
dainty, a bit more elaborate, the
second has a cushion-shaped dia
mond, just the right size for a lit
tle girl's first "nice" ring. Tiny dia
monds at each side co-operate most
delightfully in creating an impres
sion of gossamer loveliness. Un
usually alluring is the glowing
beauty of the marquise canary dia
mond set in a bracketed split band
holding a few white diamonds used
with fascinating effect as contrast
to the lustrously lovely yellow
beauty of the canarv diamond. Each
a ring to bring "heartful content,
a dream of wonderment" to any girl
ish heart.
Fulfilling the Promise of Inspiration
A RE the bits of gracious loveli
ness evolved under the artful
fingers of Miss Coe, Modiste, apart
ment two, second floor, Davidge
Block, Eigteenth and Farnam.
Never were more richly lovely
frocks, suits and wraps designed
and fashioned than those for this
spring's brides and graduates. Yes
terday when I peeped into the work
rooms, imagine my joy in a frock
of creamy white charmeuse, georg
ette draped, with gleaming ribbons
of orchid peeping with unexpectedly
lovely effect from soft folds. The
wrap for this queen of gowns, is of
orchid georgette, deeptucked, with
high-turned collar of ermine. You'll
delight in Miss Coe, and in her ar
tistic inspirations.

rose. Oddly attractive figures
adorn a model with cuff and collar
in copen and navy.
In , flesh and white is a model
whose neck line is fascinatingly
frilled in rows of lace. A deep slit

Flower Containers.

of the problem of flower con

is that suggested by the Omaha
Reed & Rattan company, 640 South
Sixteenth street. They're selling
great wicker jardinieres, many of
them on standards which with their
metal containers make lasting deco

Wyant, Blakelock,

Are painters represented in a
showing of four paintings at the
Brandeis picture-, department this
week. Path Through the Woods, is
the picture by A. H. Wyant, show
ing golden skies, lightly float
ing clouds, the poetry of spring in
its coloring. Very different in con
ception, that painted by H. M. Kit
chell. Dark, mysteriously shadowed,
forest on each side in . red, brown
living tones, shows in its heart a
trickling waterfall,' lace-thin, almost
imaginative, so dainty its suggestion.
With sky of glowing gold in intdst
of russet woods is a tiny canvas, the
Wigwam, by Ralph Blakelock. Famed
for his depictions of auburn-haired
women, we take keen pleasure - in
Jean Jacques Henner's picture of
a beautiful woman hair streaming
over ivory-tinted flesh above a rarely-colored,
red drapery. Peculiar
charm is imparted to the colors used
by the work being done on a ma
hogany panel. An artistic showing
of impressive charm.

If You've Felt the Beauty Lure
OF marble and granite, I'm sure
you'll delight in the showing
at the Art Memorial company, 704
South Sixteenth street. Great monu
ments of impressive dignity, ex
quisite detail in cutting, polish and
line, they're an entirely new de
parture in memorials. Mr. Frazier,
the artist designer of the stones of
fered, will be very glad to plan with
you, submitting drawings and color
washes, which give you a most clear
conception of the stone's appearance
when finished. His ideas of land

too, and you'll find wholly delight

dears, a . secret I'd be telling if
you'll just cut the ruffling twice as
wide as you want to use it, they'll
make you twice as much for the
same price, for they'll double hem
stitch it and cut it in two! These
frills are enchantingly effective if
pleated after they're picoted. And
of course you're going to have at
least one accordion pleated draped
skirt? We'll be very happy to send
you the new- catalogues. You'll find
they're exceedingly and artistically
helpful.
The Lloyd George Blouse.
AMONG the distinctly "new"
things being shown this week
is the Lloyd George blouse at La
mond's. Of navy blue, the below-the-waistline
panels are decorated
in an oak leaf design resembling
that of the famous man's robe of
state. They have a specially lovely
snowing of the- Meyer blouses, rec
ognized for their artistic color com
binations, unusually' fascinating.
"A Real Dress,"
SAID Mr. Lamond as he exhibited
his latest find in the east. So
listen, my dears, if you'd know the
kind of frocks men call "real dress

with creamy white. The set-ins
have rows of georgette buttons and

Unique and Enduring Wedding Gifts
A RE to be found at the H. R.
Bowen Furniture company, for
merly the Central Furniture com
pany, now on Howard between Fif

long ago wedding presents almost
invariably consisted of ornate super

ple starting out were filled with
"white elephants," bought haphaz
ard, which couldn't be cured, and
had perforce to be endured.
Nowadays all that is changed.
Gifts must be both useful and beau
tiful to please the modern bride who
has set the cachet of her approval
unmistakably on furniture as the
most acceptable offering.
