THK KEK! OMAHA, FRIDAY. Al'RIL 15. 1921.
Society
GORGEOUS is the word which
truly describes the gowns of
Trixie Friganza, appearing at
the Orpheutn this week. Nothing
plain or tailored about this actress'
costumes for every one is an elab
orate creation of richest material
combined with the most striking of
. ornamental trimmings. Nearly every
color in the rainbow is represented
in Trixie's wardrobe and each one
, glitters and scintillates under the
lights. Beads of every Jcind, rhine
stones, buckles, sequins "and a'dozen
other sparkling trimmings give ef
fects well worth the neat little sum
invested in them.
. And yes. her hair is really bobbed.
Many doubt the fact but it is clipped
at a smart length and is quite be
., coming to the comedienne.
During this week Miss Friganza
is spending much of her time visit
ing with Mrs. Leo Orotic with
whom she spent three seasons on
the stage a number of years ago.

What's What
' By HELEN DECIE
When a married woman writes a
letter she- should sign it (for ex
ample) "Emily Robinson, never
"Mrs. Henry Robinson." If she is
writing a business letter to sbme one
whodoes not know whether she is
Miss or Mrs;, it is proper to sign
"Emity Robinson," and beneath that,
in parenthesis, "(Mm. Henry Robin
son)." : The married woman's legal name
is Emily Robinson, Mary . Smith,
etc.; in society she is. known as Mrs.
Henry Robinson or Mrs,. John Smith,
but when she affixes her name to any
legal document,, she signs her . own'
first name-and. her husband's last
name. Many women, unaccustomed
to legal forms, .were surprised when
they registered as voters for the first
time and discovered that, in the eyes
of the law, it is more important to
be Sarah. Jones than' to be Mrs'.
Joshua Jones. ' This individual im
port extends back to ancient law,
before the preiix "Mrs," was invent
ed, and before Portia (daughter of)
Cato became Portia (wife of) Brutus.

HOLDING A HUSBAND
Adele Garrison's New Phase of
Revelations of a Wife
What Happened on the Way Home.
A distinct reaction came to mej
when I had driven a little way upon j
my return trip from the house where j
1 had found Grace Draper. With hr
worn face, her pleading, anguished
eyes no longer, before me, my
reasoning power regained its usual
ascendency over the more emotion
al part of my nature,' and I began
to distrust the sincerity of the girl's
theatrical appeal to me..
Theatrical. That was he only
word to apply to the scene she had
staged on the veranda of the house.
I ' recalled Harry Underwood's
praise of her dramatic ability in that
year, seemingly . so long ago now.
when the Underwoods and Grac;
Draper were our dinner guests at !
the old Brennan house in Marvin, j
and the girl gave so clever and dar-
ing a dance for our entertainment. ;
"She has, the real stuff in her." he
had remarked sagely, and I echoed j
Father and'Sonl
Cook the
Dinner
Nowadays everything seems re
versed. In the good old days (ac
cording to the antis), before suf
frage began its deadly work Mother
cooked the dinner, made that de
licious cake and Daughter-fixed the
salad and last, but not least, washed
the dishes. But now, now, Father
is cooking the meals and his son is
washing the dishes.
Wednesday evening 220 women of
Hirst Memorial church enjoyed the
pleasure of having their dinner
served them by their husbands, la
thers, sons and brothers. And not
to belittle the men. all conceded that
the dinner was almost as good ai
if the women had cooked it. Per
haps they had read that Mrs. John
Slaker of Hastings and Mrs. A. E.
Sheldon of Lincoln declare that
man's place as well as women's is
in the home and having , read, the
women decided that the men should
begin, their training promptly.
The occasion was a . Mother an-1
Daughter banquet, and it was held
in the new community house of the
church. Every bit of . the dinner
was prepared by the men with the
exception of the cake, which wa3
broughj. by the women. Beef loaf,
mashed potatoes, stewed corn, apple
sauce, lettuce,sa1ad with mayonaise
dressing, prune whip and coffee com
pleted the menu.
Toasts were given by Mesdamcs
C. T. Lunn. E. . Elliott, Arthur
Thompson, William Naugle, J. F.
Pettigrew and the Misses Clarice
Vance. Margaret Miller and 'Norma
Weeks.
Mrs. William Berry and Rev. E.
I.amont Geissitiger, pastor of the
church, spoke, Mrs. Geissinger gave
a reading and vocal solos were given
by Mrs. Verne Miller. Community
smging was led by Marie Hopkins.
Col. E. Elliott and Curtis Cook
had charge of the dinner.

Problems That Perplex
Answered by
BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Seventeen In Doubt.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am 17 and
have fallen in Jove with a man of 24
l.have known him for quit a while
and both our . families are great
friends.
There is something -within me
which rebuffs all his advances, de
sDite the fact that I love him so, I
wonder why. He is all one could
wish for and just the poetical and
music lover in fact,' the only type
1 could love. '
I don't know what to do to behave
more friendly. SEVENTEEN.
Don't worry about your inherent
dignity of the barrier of sftlf-respect
which keeps you from-expressing
your love-easily, what you reel is
more important than what you do.
The young' man probably respects
you for your reserve and is pleasant
ly aware of the fact that you think
of him so beautifully. - Give him your
sympathy- and admiration truly
that's a better foundation on which
to build than on a basis of over-exuberant
and lightly-expressed affec
tion. ,

his comment. If she had not been
sincere in her appeal to me she had
shown great histrionic ability.
My cheeks burned hotly as I
realized how gullible I had been,
how easily Grace Draper had bent
me to her own ' purposes, if ah!
there was the doubt.
I was torn between two impulses.
One to believe that she had spoken
only the truth in her appeal to me.
The other to put aside her whole
story as unworthy of credence.
A Speeding Car.
But I had promised her solemnly
that I would do all I could to Jiavc
the espionage upon her lessened.
That there, was such espionage, f
knew, and in my inordinate fear of
'he girl I had been" glad . to know
ihat mdi careful watch was bein
kept upon her movements. But now,
it I succeeded in the effort to which
1 had pledged myself she would be
free to go unmolested wherever she
wished. What use .would she make
of that freedom?
I tried to review dispassionately
her appeal to- me, endeavoring-to
separate the genuine feeling which I
was convinced actuated part of her
words from the theatricalisin with
vhilh she had invested the w hole
affair. When I barely escaped ram
ming a telegraph pole by the quick,
subconscious movement with which
a motorist turns his car from danger
I (fund that in my abstraction I was
traveling perilously near the ditch
side of the country road. '
I resolved to put aside all thought
of Grace Draper and the problem
she presented to me until- I had
reached home and Lillian. I felt
that I needed her keen brain, her
sage judgment, although I feared
that I would have a hard time ex
tracting from her any promise of
leniency toward. Grace Draper.

A Great Discovery
Swollen hands, ankles, feet are due
to a dropsical condition, often caused
by disordered kidneys. Naturally
when the kidneys are deranged the
blood is filled with poisonous waste
mattes, which settles in the feet,
ankles and wrists. -
As a remedy. for those easily rec
ognized symptoms of inflammation
caused by uric acid as scalding
urine, backache and frequent urina
tion, as well as sediment in the urine,
or if uric acid in the blood has caused
rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, gout,
it is Simply Wonderful how quickly
"An-uric" (anti-uric acid) acts; the
pains and stiffness usually disappear.
"Anuric" is the discovery of Dr.
Pierce of Buffalo, N. Y.
Step into any drug store and ask
for a package of "Anuric," .which is
many times more potent than lithia.

Absorption Process
Makes Faces Young
Success hat come to scientists who
for years have sought some method of
removing the outer veil of facial skin
in rases of unsightly complexions, which
would be both painless and harmless.
The process they discovered Is simple,
effective and inexpensive. It has been
amply demonstrated that common mer
eolized wax (sold by druggists in ounce
packages) entirely removes, by gentle
absorption, the withered, lifeless surface
skin, showing the youthful rose-like skir.
beneath. The wax is applied at night,
like cold cream, and washed off in the
morning. The absorption also cleanses
clogged pores. increasing the skin's
breathing capacity and preserving tone;
color and natural beauty of the new
skin. f i
A harmless wrinkle-remover ' which
has also proved quite successful, can
be made at home in a -jiffy. All one
need do is to dissolve an ounce of pow
dered saxolite in a half pint of witch
hazel and bathe the face in the solution.
After the very first application the finer
linps disappear, and the deeper ones
soon follow.

HASTY STORAGE
OF FINE FURS
IS ADVISED
Ruin Invited if Furs Are Not
Immediately Protected in.
Suitable Quarters.
Yes, some folks vole themselves
"elever" if they" .escape the alight
charges incurred in storing furs in
some absolutely safe, specially
adapted place, over the warm sum
mer season.
But imanine the consternation,
the genuine grief exhibited when,
upon the opening of the next cold
season, these "clever" folks find
neat little holes eaten right through
their choicest fur pieces.
Moths, you know, are no respect
ers of persons or mialitv; thev (the
moths) will bore through a $10,000
fur piece jusi as quickly as through
a modest fur item costing $10.
And your camphor balls, tar bags,
etc.. at best are only "amateur" pro
tection. Twould be far better to send all
of your furs to Dresner Brothers,
the immense Dry Cleaners and
Dyers at 2211-2217 1'arnam St.
Dresher Brothers have a spacious
Special Fur Storage Vault that has
proved absolute protection for som
years past. The vault is made of
Concrete and Steel; it is refriger
ated just right; it is guarded at all
times; in fact, you are absolutely
insured egainst Moths, Fire,. Theft,
Water, Damage or anything else
that tends to make poor furs out of
gofod ones.
Best way would be to have
Dreshers clean the. furs nicely Hnd
make such repairs or alterations as
may be needed. Then the furs will
be stored over the hot season -and
when you don them in the fall they
will be beautiful furs crisp, soft,
silky, perfect in condition and a de
light to the eye. The same service'
could not be rendered to you in
your home Tor any money you could
pny.t
Heed the oangcr signal at once.
Furs out rtf storage at this time will
soon be exposed to ruin. Better
phone Tyler 0345 and have a
Dresher man come after your furs.
Write or phone instructions and
rest easy all summer. South Side
folks should phone South 0050,
which connects with the Dresher
branch at 24th and L streets.
Or you may leave your fur pieces
at Dresher the Tailor, 1515 Farnam
street; at the Dresher plant, 221 1 -2217
Farnam street, or at one of
the Dresher branches in the Bur-gess-Nash
or Brandeis Stores. Those
living out of town should express
or parcel post their furs to Dresh
ers and Dreshers will pay the carry
ing charges one way.
Mind you, you are loser if you
court the moth. He is a dangerous
little pest. He is mighty discourag
ing if you give him half a chance.
Better let Dreshers store your furs.
Far rather pay a slight 'fee than to
have an army of moths drill into
your pet furs.
