The admirable arrangement of the house ad mitted of most effective decoration, palms and southern smilax with frequent clusters of poinsettia and bunches of stately Ameri- can Beauty roses being used. Palms banked the mantles and the smilax outlined the doorwavs. while the newly paiuted frieze of autumn leaves in the hall completed an indescribable effect. Here Mr. and Mrs. Kountze received, as- sisted by Mr. and Mrs. Luther Kountze and Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Davis. The other wo- men assisting were Mesdames Manderson, Patrick.

The receution room was used for a punch room, the colonial mantle belng dressed with ferns and pink caroations, while the bow window was filled with tall palms, the long branches of which formed a canopy over the vunch table where Mrs. Louis Reed and Miss Margaret Preston presided. In the dinning room a basket of polnsettin tormed the centerpiece on the table, which was further decorated with red-shaded sil- ver candlesticks. Mrs, Patrick and Mrs. | Doane alternated with Mrs. Manderson and Mrs. Smith in presiding there.

A healthy appetite and common sense are excollent guides to follow in matters of diet, and a mixed diet of grains, fruits and meats | "¢18 Ber is undoubtedly the best, in spite of the claims made by vegetarians and food cranks generally As compared with grains and vegetables meat furnishes (he most nutriment in a highly concentrated form and is digested and sssimilated more quickly than vegeta- bles or grains. Dr. Julius Remusgon on this subject says Nervous persons, people run down in health and of low vitality should eat plenty of meat. If the digestion s too feeble at first 1t may be easily strengthened by the regu lar use of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets after enach meal. Two of these excellent tablets taken after dinner will digest several thou- sand gralus of meat, eggs or other animal food in three or four hours, wiile the malt dlastase also contained in Stuart's Tablets cause the perfect digestion of starchy foods, like potatoes, bread, ete. and no matter how weak the stomach may be, no trouble will be experienced If & regular practice is made of using Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets because they supply the pepsin and diastase 10 necessary to perfect digestion, and any torm of indigestion and stomach trouble except cancer of the stomach will be over- come by their dally use. That large class of people who come under the head of nervous dyspepsia should eat plenty of meat and insure its complete di- pestion by the systematlc use of a safe, harmless digestive medicine like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets composed of the natural igestive principles, peptones and diastase which actually perform the work of diges- tlon and give the abused stomach chan to rest and to furnish the body and brain with the necessary nutriment. Cheap ca- thartic medicines masquerading under the pame of dyspepsia cures are useless for re- Met or cure of indigestion because they have absolutely no effect upon the actual diges- tion of food. Dyspepsia in all its forms is simply a fail+ ure of the stomach to digest food and the sensible way to solve the riddle und cure the indigestion 1s to make daily use at meal time of & safe preparation which is endorsed by the medical profession and known to certain actlve digestive prinei- ples, and all this can truly be said of Stu- art's Dyspepsia Tablets.

The object Is to restore the victim of inebriety to health and happiness and aid the unfortunate to become a self-respecting citizen, instead of an object of charity. This league was organized about six years ago and since that time has been operating successfully in Chicago, Milwaukee, Minne- apolis and other large cities of the middle west and Canada, Toronto supporting a strong organization. The natiopal pres- ident, Mrs, Harrlet H. Dutcher, came to Omaha Saturday to begin the work here, coming from Minneapolls with the strong indorsement of the Woman's council, Woman's Christlan Temperance union and other such organizations of that city, it plan to co-operate with the churches, assoclated charities and mission workers of the city. Owing to its name, the real object of the league ia frequently mis Judged. It is in no way connected with the Keeley institutions, only as it sends its patients to them to be cured of the drink abit. It first cures the men of the al- cubolic disease, paying for the treatment when ho enters the institute and taking his note for the full amount and requiring bim to pay it back in monthly installments as his circumstances will permit. This creates a revolving fund which is used over and over agaln, for more than two-thirds of those benefited pay back. The league looks after his family while he Is taking the treat ment and endeavors to have work for him when he has finished it. This is a needful work and not otherwise systematically pro- vided for and has kept many families from becoming a chargs upon charity. This work {s not entirely unknown In Omaha, Mrs Dutcher baving presented it at the meeting of the National Council of Women which convened here two weeks ago.

The cmblem ittracted the attention of every daughter that saw 1t, the majority of whom expressed A wish that some such permanent pin might be adoptea for informal wear. Being a ceramic artist Miss Dutcher then expe- rimented with ceramic euamels and then Jeweler's enamels with the result that the pin has had the approval of all who have seen it It is about the size of a dime, the insignia in blue enamel upon a back- grcund of white enamel, thus introducing the society colors, while the lettering, spckes and stars are in gold.

The pin was presented at last year's meeting for adoption, but could not be acted upon, as the manufacturers of the official emblom claimed it to be an in- fringment upon their contract, and it was necessary to propose an amendment for its adoption this year, The manufacturern were at once notified that thelr contract ehould termina the end of the year, which expires in February, when the so- cloty will be in a position to adopt an in formal badge and make new contracts for its production.
