a THE OMAHA DAILY BE SOCIETY IS EVENLY BRISK Barly Advent of Lent Fails to Stir the Local Flow of Events. ALENDAR SHOWS USUAL LIST OF THINGS Aftairs Set for of the . Week Ash Some Really Smart the rly Part and Nothing Wedn for ay. As though there were not forty long days, fot to speak of the evenings, when little is expected fo be going on, soclety has planned but little for the two days remain- ing that are still open to festivity. To be sure, everything will not stop short on Tuesday evening,” but so far at least the affairs on the calendar after that date are few and far between and prospects are not altogether encouraging, even for the firat of the week. Ot course there will be the table d'hote dinner at the Omaha club on Monday even- ing, and dinners are always In order, even during Lent, so that occasion, at least, promises to remain popular as ever. At 1 o'clock Monday Mrs. Warren Blackwell and Mrs, Martha Blackwell will give a largo buffet luncheon in compliment to Mrs. War- ren Blackwell's mother and sister, Mrs. and ‘Miss Whitcomb of Chicago, who are her @uests. In the afternoon Miss Jeanne Whakefleld and Miss Ella Mae Brown will entertain a euchre party; the officers at Fort Crook will give a cotillion in the even- ing at the post hall; Mrs. Willlam Spencer Crosby will give the first of her Wagner lecture recitals at the First Congregational church. ' Mrs. Scribner glves a colonial party at her home at Thirty-second and Woolworth avenue. On Tuesday Mrs. John L. Webster will give a whist luncheon; Mrs. F. H. Cole will hold an Informal reception at her home, 1910 Spencer street, from 2 until 3 o'clock, for Mrs. Willlam Spencer Crosby; Mrs. Wernher will give a luncheon; Mr. and Mrs. Edward Porter Peck will entertain at din- ner; the members of the South Side Whist club will be entertalned at the home of Mrs. Charles Frice; the wedding of Miss Ruby Willlams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Willlams, and Mr. Sherman Taylor Btevens will occur at 7:30 o'clock; Mrs. Luther Kountze and Mrs. Herbert Gannett entertain the whist club at the home of Mrs. Kountze; Mrs. Willlam Spencer Cros- by's lecture recital. Wednesday's calendar is blank. On Thureday Mr. and Mrs. Sayles will en- tertaln the Hanscom Park Whist club; Miss Mabel Carey will entertain the members of the Charmante club in the afternoon; Mrs. Louls Reichenberg and Mrs. Eichberg will recelve. The first of the Lenten musicales to be given at Mrs. Kirkendall's home on Satur- day, and the table d'hote dinmer for men at the Omaha club complete the schedule, for the present at least, for of course there wil be ever so many things, in spite of Lent, for which no cards are to be issued. To what extent the French class has taken hold of the local fashionable mind was {llustrated recently in a little Incident that, while a bit embarrassing to the lady concerned was altogether amueing to the onlookers. One of Professor Nesbitt's en- thusiastic disciples got onto a street car the other day and as the conductor re- quested her fare, ehe repeated a number somewhat mechanically. Not recognizing her as the holder of a street car pass, he repeated his request, whereupon the lady started in confusion, saying she hur- riedly produced her nickle: “Oh, I forgot; that is my French class number.” A number of Omaha people will go to North Platte on Tuesday to attend the wedding of Miss Irma Cody, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Willlam F. Cody, which will be solemnized on that day. A fitting close of one of the most bril- liant winters in the socfal history of the city, was the annual birthday party and reception of the Visiting Nurses assocla- tion held from 2 until 6 c'clock on Satur- day afternoon at the home of Judgo J. M. Woolworth, at 2211 St. Mary’s avenue. Not until after Easter will soclety be privi- leged to engage in so smart a function and as thoug to fmprove this last opportunity, from 2 o'clock until 5, scores of handsomely gowned women came and went, each leav- 188 in the little silken bag that accom- panled her invitation, a penny for each L ———— NO ARGUMENT NEEDED. Washen, Sprays and Donches Do Not Ci Powders, lotions, salves, sprays and in- balers cannot really cure Catarrh, because this disease is a blood disease, and local applications, if they accomplish anything at all, simply give transient relief. The catarrhal poison is in the blood and the mucous membrane of the nose, throat and trachea tries to relleve the system by secreting large quantities of mucus, the discharge sometimes closing up the nos- dropping into the throat, causing by closing the Eustachian tubes, and after a time causing catarrh of stom- ach or serlous throat and lung troubles A remedy to really cure catarrh must be internal remedy, which will cleanse the blood from catarrhal polson and remove the fever and congestion from the mucous membrane. The best and most modern remedies for this purpose are antiseptics sclentifical'y known as Red Gum, Blood Root and Hy- drastin, and while each of these have been successfully used separately, yet it has been difficult to get them all combined in one palatable, convenient and efficient form. The manufacturers of the new catarrh cure, Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets, have suc- ceeded admirably in accomplishing this re- sult. They are large, pleasant tasting lozenges, to be dissolved in the mouth, thus reaching every part of the mucous membrane of the throat and finally the ®tomach. Unltke many catarrh remedies, Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contaln no cocaine, opi ate or any injurlous drug whatever, and are equally benmeficlal for little children and adults, Mr. C. R. Rembrandt of Rochester, N. Y. says: 1 know of few people who have suftered as Such as I from Catarrh of the throat ‘'wd stomach. I used sprays, inl rs and powders for months at a time with only slight relief, and had no hope ot cure. I had not the means to make a change of climate, which seemed my only chanoe of cure. “Last spring I read an account of some remarkable cures made by Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and promptly bought a ffty-cent box from my drugsist, and obtained such positiye benefit from that one package that I vontinued to use them dally until I now copsider myself entirely free from the Qisgusting annoyance of Catarrh; my head is clear, my digestion all | could ask and my hearing, which had begun to fail as a result of the Catarrh, has greatly improved, until T feel I can hear as well as ever They are a household necessity in my family." U Stusrt's Catarrh Tablets are sold by drug: #ists at 50 cents for complete treatment, and for convenience, safety and prompt re- sults they are undoubtedly Lhe long looked for Catarrh cure. N year of her age. And soms 4id even more for there were checks and bills of a de nomination that, combined with the con tents of the bags, will relleve the associa- tion of the anxiety occasjoned by the short- age of funds the past few months and in- sure to the sick among the city poor the attention and comforts that it is the as- sociation's mission to supply. About 1,000 invitations were issued in addition to the general invitation to interested friends, and it was cstimated In the afternoon that a large majority of those Invited had ac- cepted. - About the rooms bunches of flow- ers attested the interest of absent. friends detained by other engagements or {llness, while during the entire afternoon the Creighton University string sextette nished music. As the guests were ad- mitted they left their contribution with members of the committee n the hall pass- ing on to the drawing room where the of- flcers and past presidents of the assocla- tion received. Out in the library, trimmed with a scattering of pink roses and carna- tions, punch was eerved from the library table by Mrs. Rich, Mrs. Ward, Miss Clara Thomas, Miss Furay and Mrs, P. C. More- arty, and others of the association. Out in the dining room Mrs. Herman Kountze and Mrs. Clement Chase and Mrs. Howard served tea, assisted by Miss Kilpatrick, Miss McShane, Miss Helen Peck, Miss Mona Martin, Miss Janet Rogers and Miss Iler. For her guests, Miss Wood and Miss Cholvin, Miss Bessle Iler entertained at 9 o'clock coffee on Saturday evening at her home on South Tenth street. The “Strollers” were royally entertained on Wednesday by Mrs. Frank Green at a 1 o'clock lunsheon. The table decorations were white and red. Six courses fol- lowed, at the end of which each member was presented with pretty heart-shaped pins as souvenirs of the occasion. Seven games of high five were played. Mesdames Pettipere, Hopper, Foley, Bridenbecker and Risley were the fortunate winners Among the smartest of the week's end affairs was the dinner given on Saturday evening by Mr. and Mrs. 8. A. McWhorter, | at thelr home, 104 South Thirty-ninth | street, in celebration of their nineteenth | wedding anniversary. It was & red dinner. A large crystal candelabra, its candles shaded In red, formed the centerplece on the table and was surrounded by several single, red-shaded candles that with a bunch of nineteen . brides’ roses completed the very effective trimming. A nine-course dinner was served, covers being lald for twelve. The place cards weve each the verse and music of an old song, with the dates done in red on the white card, those of the women being accompanied by a white camelia and the men's by a red car- nation.
