' The Friend of Art is starting, the
new year with a determined and
concerted effort to rouse the people
of Omaha 'and vicinity to the fact
that" in the public'library- here is a
collection of pictures which is not
only of. the finest in the west, but
that it also contains some paint
ings of which "any city in the-world
would be proud. To make known
these facts and to show why they
are true is the announced program
of the association for the coming

At-r the nersonal direc
tion of Mr. John Lee Webster, the
president, j - , ,
- An ex-officer cf the Fine Arts
society has just returned from a
long sojourn in the eastern cities.
She says that she made it a point
to see all the pictures everywhere,
but that she knows little of those
here, not' because they are inferior,
but because they are always here.
This is a usual attitude and one
which the Friends of Art is going
to try to change. , . . '
The highest honor which can be
conferred on a painter or sculptor
in this country and one to which
they all aspire, is a membership in
the National Academy of Design of
Pew York, which is by invitation and
vote of the jury. A full member is
entitled thereafter to write N. A.
after his name as an associate. A.
N A., for membership is for life.
Each member is entitled to hang two
pictures in every exhibition without
their passing the jury. The academy
maintains the Fine Arts building at
215 West Fifty-seventh street, m
which are held the best exhibitions,
and also a large art school near
Columbus university. So far as is
humanly possible, its stamp, of. ap
proval on the work of an artist is
the highest authority. Several
branches have rebelled and es
tablished what they considered
broader and more equable societies,

Of about 50 paintings, almost half
have been pronounced by authorita
tive critics to be representative ex

a few have been, shown to be as good
and in a few instances better than

country are invited to visit the gal
lery on the third floor of the library
at Nineteenth and Harney streets,
and to feel at home there.
Council Bluffs, and so of course
Omaha, has lately acquired a rare
work of art which will undoubtedly
become world-famous and a mecca
for all lovers and students of art.
This is the Angel Fountain erected
in the cemetery there to the memory
of Mrs. Ruth Anne Dodge, wife of
Gen. Grenville M. Dodge, who built
the Union Pacific railroad, the
Mount Cenis tunnel, the greatest in
Switzerland, and planned the "Battle
of Gettysburg." It has been placed
there by their daughters, Ella and
Anne, and is by Daniel Chester
French, the American, one of the
greatest of sculptors, and is one of
his best works. All of which helps
along the work of making Omaha a
real art center.

Freshened
W
ITH the approach of the semiannual houSecleaning time home
makers begin studying up the subject of distinctive touches by means
of which various rooms may be beautified without involving too much
expense.
When good furniture has been bought there is, of course, no ques
tion of turning it out and refurnishing to meet a standard of fashion,
but little changes may be made in it that will perhaps give it the charm
of novelty.
A length of well desigled chintz is often an inspiration to original
adaptations. Our guest room was well furnished in walnut furniture and
the side wall beige. Inoffensive enough, you will say, but deadly flat
and nmmotonous.
We decided to freshen it up and so this is what we did. We bought a
few yards of very lovely cretonne printed in nosegray pattern on a walnut-brown
ground. The colors predominant in the figures are soft old
rose, dull turquoise, sage green and a touch of lemon yellow. This we
made into scalloped valances for the windows and into chair cushions of
different shapes and sizes. . 1
But one new piece of furniture was added to the room, and that was
a brown wicker chair with all the braided edges painted old-rose. The old
voile curtains were good, but plain, so we bought a few yards of old-rose
organdy, and cut it up into narrow little ruffles with picoted edges. With
these we trimmed the curtains, turning the ruffles backwards instead of
forwards. We added the same edge as a finishing touch to the scalloped
valances. !
We bought some rose-colored silk and made an outside cover for the
old tan silk lamp shade, and some rose-colored soutache' and wound it
spirally around and around the electric cord on which the lamp hung,
and ornamented the shade with some little satin hand-made ribbon flowers,
matching the colors in the chintz. All this being done we copied some of
the posies shown in the cretonne on the furniture.
Painting of furniture is not such a very difficult thing to do. Often
the cretonne designs or portions of them can be traced on transparent
paper, then transferred by means of carbon paper onto the furniture.
Light yellow or white carbon paper may be used.
In painting do not attempt (unless you are an expert) to do the work
on upright surfaces. Take each drawer out and lay it flat-side up, so that
the paint may not run while you are working. Use oil paints. Set out
the colors, adding a tiny bit of brown to each color you use, to key it
to the wood if you are painting on walnut Thin the colors by dipping
the brush frequently in Japan dryer. This will-dry the paint almost as
fast as it is painted on.
One of the most popular fads of the season is for hand-painted wihdow
shades. Ivory colored glazed shades are used, and floral designs copied on
them in exactly the same way as the painting is done on the furniture.
The shades are laid flat on a table while the work is accomplished. Thin
ning the paint with dryer is quite transparent, and gives a lovely effect
with the light shining through it. This is added by the pull-tassels made of
strings of colored glass beads, headed by a large ruby glass bead (you can
make it yourself.)
On the floor in our "freshened up" room are some rose-colored chenille
rugs and the daytime bedspreads are of rose and ivory striped silk rep,
arenerouslv flounced at the sides.

All Rested, Ready for the Jolliest
Kind of a Party
WAS a little friend of mine at
dinnertime the other evening
such a surprise, for when I had left
her, but a short time before, she had
seemed quite exhausted by the stren
uous duties of the day's work. All
due to one of those delightful elec
tric vibrators which they're selling
at the Nelson company electric
shop, ope door north of the Or
pheum theater, Fifteenth and Har
ney streets. One of the vibrators
may be had as low as $7.50. This
shop is also featuring those Majes
tic heaters, which dispel such a cosy
warmth from their closely coiled
wires, reflecting their heat from a
u-ida cooDer reflector. These at $12.

Satin and Duvetyne Go Far to
Making the Success of a Costume
A ND when such a combination

lined blouse is quite full, a fullness
confined by satin sash girdle, fringe
ended, jvhich, when swinging from
side to side, discloses a sand-tinted
lining, the satin again seen in the
satin gilet, smartly bordered by
glinting gold braid, the same braid
outlining the sauare-cut neckline. A

with chic effect below the long tunic
