They Refuse to Obey Rules
bo . Daintiness and
Dignity Are All
Mixed Up.
There is no part of a woman's
wardrobe more wayward than the
evening gown. It simply refuses to
rbey rules, not even the rule of age
The sweet young thing who today
appears in a lightsome, "youthful"
bunch of fluff will tomorrow sheathe
herself in a clinging, stately, trained
affair of black velvet. Similarly will
her elder sister discard dignity in
some capricious moment in favor ot
frills. But why not, she asks de
fiantly, when every sort is correct.
Two of the gowns shown on this
page, those worn by Lillian Hall and
Emily Chichester, motion picture
actresses, are totally different if
character. Miss Hall's belong to I
the first-mentioned class, being a '
lacy looking concoction of salmon
pink silk net over a foundation o'
cloth of silver. The overdress !
which has a deep flounce, flowered
in salmon pink, is cut straight across
the top, and so wide as to extend 1
when held out at least a half yard
beyond either hip. But it is held out
only for exhibition purposes; usually
it is allowed to fall into soft folds,
giving a slightly bouffant effect
z.bout the hips. The free edges are
outlined with tiny ribbon flowers
and look like the edges of pockets.
Silver embroidery bands the low
bodice and little bows of silver rib
bon dot the flouncing at intervals.
Miss Chichester's gown is as se
verely plain as the ether is frivolous,
but it is of the rich, shimmering ma
terial, and is made on the fine, simple
lines that are utterly independent o
trimming that, as a ' matter . of
fact, are far more effective withou .
it. The whole thing is of heavy,
lustrous black satin, the bodice and
girdle cut in one piece; the skirt, ex
tremely narrow about the an
with a very slight fullness
hips. A straight, square train
serves to emphasize the general ef
fect of simplicity, and incidentally,
of slenderness and height.' .
Mountains, .
Mountains seem to have been
built for the human race, as at once
their schools and their cathedrals;
full of treasures of illuminated man-;
uscript for the scholar, kindly in
simple lessons for the worker", quiet
in pale cloisters for the thinker,
glorious in holiness for the worship
er. They are great cathedral of the
earth, with their gates of rock, pave
ments of cloud, choirs of.stream and
stone, altars of anow.i
purple traversed 'ty

kles and
; You may doubt the reliability of
some of the statements concerning
the almost miraculous merits of
pineapple. The claim has been made J
that pineapple has rare healing qual
ities for the throat, that it would
very nearly bring eternal youth.
.' It is one of the foods that, like!
celery with its leputed nerve heal- J
ing virtues, has always come in for ;
enthusiastic praise that has not al-,
ways been entirety based on scien-
tific investigation. However, we
do know that all fruit is beneficial
and pineapple has none of the su-
peracidity that would make it less
,so than other fruit,
t: And there is one thing that has
. brought grtat popularity to pine
apple within the last few years. It
is the one sort of tinned fruit that
seems to be universally liked. There
ire nfany persons who actually pre
fer the canned fruit to the fresh
-sort. The faCct is that the pineapple
that is canned is mellow and en
tirely ripe at the time of canning,
hence it has none of that rather bit
ing flavor that is sometimes to be
found in the pineapples that we get
in the market.
There are two sors of pineapples
-r-one that comes to you in slices
and the other that is cut up. If you
are using it for salad or desserts
where you want to use the whole
pieces then the former is your best
selection, whereas if you are going
to make a dessert where you wish.
to have it minced then you save time
by using the latter sort.
When it is possible open a can
of pineapple today and use it for a
salad and finish it up tomorrow in a
dessert. If you are making a fruit
mixture of bananas, apples, grape
fruit or other fruits in combination
a little pineapple, even if it is but
one slice left over, will add piquancy
to the flavor. The juice in which
pineapple is canned is quite sweet,
and this may be used to sweeten a
fruit dessert. '
One very good salad that may be
made to take the place of salad as
well as dessert is made by placing
pineapple .discs on lettuce and then
filling the holes of pineapple with
" cream cheese. French dressing to
which a little pineapple juice has
been added should be used with it.
Always a little pineapple placed
in the bottom of the dish in which
custard is served adds interest to
that simple dessert. .
A delicious dessert is a pineapple
omelet made as follows: Beat three
eggs thoroughly and add a table
spoonful of sugar, a pinch of salt and
after this is mixed, a teaspoonful ot
lemon juice and a teaspoonful ot
the juice of canned pineapple. In
the meantime prepare your omelet
pan by greasing it with butter.
When tot turn in the beaten egg
and proceed as usually with an om
elet. When it is set sprinkle over
the top of one-half of the omelet a
cup of drained minced pineapple.
Now fold over the other half , and
sprinkle with powdered sugar be
fore serving. ,

On the winter hat hand embroid

formerly, but some striking or
dainty stitches still lend distinction
to a few of the most exquisite and
up to date. On hats of taffeta and
velvet with a turban crown one of
the most popular ways to embroider
is to use a fine silver or gold thread
and weave it across the crown in
such a way as to leave flower-like
looking spaces on the fabric. An
other way is to make a plaid design
of basting or fine stitches.

Mrs. Winter, second vice presi

today to attend meetings of the gen

Mrs. Winter is director of Ameri
canization in the federation and is
well-known over the country as
author, lecturer, club and civic work
er. She is a candidate for the of
fice of president, G. F. W. C. Elec
tion will be-held at the "Golden

characteristic remarks.
Effects in Embroidery
Every season there is something
distinctive in the style of embroid
ery and the way it is applied to
clothes. To be smart milacfy, this
year .for instance, embroiders not
her collar, but instead the flat col
larless neck of her dress. One of
the favorite stitches for the one nice
frock neck as well as the Georgette
blouse, the Russian or casaqua
blouse of velvet or the jersey smock
is a band composed of three rows
of basting stitches placed rather
close together in contrasting em
broidery silks. . Many times a pop
ular color scheme is three" tones of
the same color or two light colors
with a middle row of black silk to
give accent for this sort of trim
ming. A sort of sun-ray stitch, that
is, long and short stitches done over
the edge of the neck, is another
smart neck finish. Sometimes silk
and sometimes wool is chosen to
work these stitches and sometimes
French knots or solidly embroidered
dots are placed at the end of these
stitches. '
On smocks of taffeta embroidery
in self color is very good just now.
This often dedorates the front of
the blouse in a design of conven
tionalized flowers.' . . f "
One of the very newest of this
year's effects in embroidery applied
to clothing is an over and over stitch
laid work just wide enough to
imitate soutac! e braid. It ii most
frequently applied in black silk to
the winter frocks of darklue serge,
broadcloth or tricotine particularly
those models called "coat dresses."
Black silk embroidery, it should
be noticed, always makes an effect-
Furniture should be stained before
being waxed.

There are sound, logical reasons why the women of Omaha should anticipate their linen needs and buy now! Ireland is
practically the only country producing flax. Russia, formerly producing almost three-fourths of the world s supply,
Is practically out of business. Belgium has not yet fully re stored her linen industry. Under such conditions linens
must continue to be scarce, and scarcity is the inevitable cause of higher prices. A glance over the following items
will quickly convince you of the advisability of securing your linen needs during our January White Sale.
