UNDER the light of the harvest
moon and twinkling Japan
ese lanterns, pretty maids
and stalwart officers will dance to
the dreamy sound of a rythmic
waltz. Such an affair is planned by
the officers at Fort Omaha. It will
'take place Tuesday evening, Sep
tember 16, at the post.
An unusual feature of the event
lies in the fact that it will be an out
door affair. The tennis courts at the
post will be covered with canvas and
the ground will be lighted with col
ored lanterns. The officers in charge
are making elaborate plans for the
party as it will no doubt be one of
the last dances to be attended by the
younger men at the fort. The day
' is coming when army affairs will
not be so large as formerly as quite
a number of officers expect to be dis
charged or transferred to other
camps in the near future.
r.A number of Omaha's most at
tractive maids have been asked to
attend and the dance will be one of
the most unusual of the fall season.

Heartbeats
By A. K.
We've suffered
In silence
This high cost of living .
We quietly noted
The high cost of dying
We were ruffled of course
When our rents soared
Skyward
But we dug a bit deeper
Took a place ;"
That was cheaper
Began a strict diet
And plodded along.
Fall days
Came upon us
We needed new dresses
New hats
New shoes
And many new hose
All sorts of new clothes
But when we went shopping
For a mean scanty outfit
They added
War tax
Atop of high prices.
Sadder
We admit
For we'll wear
Our old toggery
Our diet must needs be
Much slimmer we know
Old hats we'll remodel
And resurrect old shoes.
Meats!
We'll not touch theml
And candies have long gone
Among the taboos
But the thing
That's so terrorizing
Frightfully agonizing
Is the high cost
Of necessities
Not listed in staples.
F'rinstance:
Powders
Rouges and creams
Lotions sticks
And Henna
Tweezers
And manicures
Bleaches
And astringents
Have all gone
Sky-rocketing
Way out of sight.
These prices are awful
They are dreadful
They are scandalous
But curtail!
Never!
Mercy me we can't.
We've itood profiteering
On rents and provisions
We've done without clothes
And been patient indeed
But we know there's a limit
To human endurance
This high cost of beauty
Is breaking our hearts.
SELAH!

BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Against "Innocent."
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Since "Innocent" has brought forth
some discussion, I would like to give
my opinion of the affair.' If he is a
man, or calls himself one, he will
marry the girl. There are too many
men dodging this sort of thing, and
I say let him do his duty. If our
soldiers in France have given their
all to make the "world safe for
democracy," are we going to make
"democracy unsafe for the world?"
That is what we are doing when we
let assaults and other vice pass
without punishment. Why should
the girl suffer? She should not, and
I wish from the bottom of my heart
that murderers of women's souls
would be shot down. Miss Fair
fax, we girls dare not trust anyone.
I am only 18 yet the high school
boys are the only ones I feel safe
with. I hope "Innocent" will re
member "the girl ia more lone
some than himself."
Pardon this outburst, but I hope
you receive other letters about this.
Your advice is always splendid. I
think you are very patient and
sometimes you must think we are
a deadful bore we young people
with all our imaginary troubles
isn't that right?
Thanking you, I am,
A DEFENDER OF THE GIRL.
An Opinion of "Innocent."
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Will now write what is my opinion
of Mr. "Innocent." If he did not
want to get into trouble why didn't
he stay out of trouble's way? His
intentions undoubtedly were not
good or he would not have taken, a
girl with a bad character. Namely,
the man is just as much to blame
as the woman.
, For example, I am a wife living
in a near-by town. My husband sent
me and my two girls away to visit
his folks. I just begged not to go,
but man's will, as usual, was the
strongest While I was away he
brought women from Omaha to my
home and kept them over Sunday.
Then he went to Lakeview park and
had his picture taken with these
women. Of course, he gave wagon
loads of excuses, and of course they
were lies, as the girls were un
doubtedly of bad character, for they
knew he was a married man.
So, now, Mr. "Innocent," here is
another man who Is guilty. Wasn't
he wrong and shouldn't he have
kept straight for the sake of his lit
tle girls? I would like to know
what some of the readers have to
say about my trouble.
ANOTHER BROKEN-HEARTED
WIFE.
"Innocent" and Kissing.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
just read your advice on the kissing
problem the other day and it was
really the first time I ever thought
of it in Just that way. I had al
ways thought it was simply a case
of like and dislike, the same aa
whether you like ice cream or not.
I never dreamed of there being any
right or wrong to it at all. Now,
Miss Fairfax, do you think that it
is morally wrong to spoon? I do
not know why, but spooning never
did appeal to me, so I havep't made
a practise of It, although- I have
spent about three evenings prob
ably durlnsr my 18 years in that
silly way. But what I want to know
is it really wrong as, say, -taKing
something that doe not belong to
you? in a religious way, i mean.
too? -
I know lots of girls that think
the same as I about this, but if
they thought it was really wrong I
am sure they would not do it
I hope you have understood ana
will not misjudge me.
SDeakinir of "Innocent," I think
your answer was very good and
suited him very well. Isn't lt Just
like women and girls to stick up for
the boy and run the girl down? Of
course you make mistakes, but
everybody does, and all of your an
swers I have read to letters have
seemed very sensible to me.
DOROTHY LORAINE.
I am still firm In my conviction
that promiscuous kissing is entirely
wrong. At times it is a temptation,

Beauty in Complexions.
Beauty is but skin deep, sayt the
old adage. And this may be true,
but certainly it is not the truth, the
whole truth and nothing but the
truth.
If it is true that beauty is skin
deep complexions must play a large
part in the happiness of woman
hood. Of course, the complexions
that come in a box are easily obtain
ed and easily applied, but there is
something about the real-for-true
complexion that makes the rouged
and black-pencilled lady appear
a very ordinary person, when com
pared to the one whose charms are
real.
It is not true that we all have
beautiful complexions, but it is true
that many of us who have not
may acquire them. There is nothing
that so ruins a good skin as too
much attention in the way of cold
cream and massage. Both are good
when used judiciously, but when
overdone they will most surely give
the face an unnatural appearance.
Have you not seen women who
were absolutely puffy-looking, from
I know, but those who abstain will
be happier in the end. I am glad
to receive your opinion on Inno
cent."
Etiquet.
Dear Miss Fairfax. Omaha Bee:
Having been reading your good ad
vice to others, so I thought l
would also like to ask a few ques
tions.
When going up steps which are
not wide enough to allow them to
go siie by side, who should go first,
the man or woman, and also who
should go first coming down?
On which side should the bride
stand during the wedding ' cere
mony? Thanking you for your advice, I
remain, A COUNTRY GIRL.
No. 1 The woman. No. 2 The
left.
too much cold cream and massage?
A woman who is over 40, and who
has an usually clear skin, tells of her
methods, which may serve as an aid
to the girl who wishes to improve
her complexion, and who has found
her nightly massages with cold
cream unsatisfying:
"I have never used cream to any
great extent. I learned long since
that they give to mytface a putty
like appearance which is not becom
ing. I bathe my face never more
than twice a day and after each
bath I use the application of one
of the inexpensive but pure grades
of almond cream which is soothing
and yet acts as a slight astring
ent. "I never rub in cold creams at
night, though I occasionally in the
winter time use old-fashioned camphor-ice,
which may now be pur
chased at any good drug store. I
use once a week one of the unguents,
which cleanses the pores of the skin
thoroughly, but leaves the face very
dry, and it is then that I rub in a
plentiful supply of cold cream, which
I rub off with as much care, after I
think enough has been absorbed,
which is when I feel that the
excessive dryness of the cuticles
has been overcome. I use
rice powder and of a very
good grade. One box of the
powder usually lasts me at least six
months. Of course I use talcum
when bathing, but only rice powder
on the iace. v
This young woman happens to
have a. naturally healthy skin, but
most young women will find that
the use of too much cold cream and
massage is harmful. It gives to the
face an unnaturally pudgy look if
used too lavishly.
Many of the cold creams have a
large percent of peroxide, which will
surely harm the skin, if used to ex
cess, giving it a parchment-like
appearance. Of course the girl who
is able to patronize the very best
beauty expert does not need this
advice, for it is true that being
beautiful has become one of the
modern arts. But after all nothing
so makes for beauty as perfect
health.
Baths are almost an essential to
health. The cold bath is a fine
bracer, but the hot bath is a great
cleanser.lt opens the pores and gives
the body a chance to breathe.
This if adopted as a daily sched
ule will attend to make milady
healthier and consequently happier.
Rise at a reasonable hour which
should be when you have eight or
nine houre -sleep Take a hot bath
followed by a cold shower.
The best way to accomplish this
without too great shock to the sys
tem is to allow the water from the
cold water faucet to run gradually,
after the hot bath, remaining in the
tub until the water is nearly cold
then turning on the cold spray.
Have a light breakfast of fruit, in
season, coffee and toast ,or cereal.
Take some light exercise, if your
occupation confines you too much
indoors. Let your midday meal be
light, and cultivate the habit of eat
ing your hearty meal at night.
Take good care of your complex
ion, drink occasionally a strong
lemonade before breakfast, and
plenty of water during the day.
When feeling indisposed, drink
plenty of hot water, to flush the
