e THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, ¢ Army Officers Jilted by Omaha Young Wome The tradition of the officers who camo and conquered and rode away has recently been reversed in Omaha and the busy bodles are humming & parody about pretty girls who flattered and flirted and flitted away, Instead. . At least two Omaha girls have proven a mateh for these clever, though it must be admitted, & bit spolled, members of so- clety, who now find the shoe on the other foot. One of thess young women, who only & few months ago at least would not deny her engagement to a young naval of- ficer, now frankly admits that Omaha is 100 Interesting & place to leave. The other young woman, who has been equally popu lar in town and army circles, has declded tn favor of a ecivillan. Two other cases that attracted much at- tention because of the popularity of all concerned, seem to have terminated in the same way. One of the young women has gone elsewhere to reside and rumor comes back that she is quite as popular with the new friends as with the old. The other young woman has gone off for an extended visit with out-of-town friends, among whom she s having a really “beautiful’ time.

The Federation of Women's Clubs of New York City at its recent meeting passed by, an almost unanimous vote & motion to urge legislation that will pre- vent the wrecking of homes through the physical unfitness of parents. The mo- tion was introduced by Mrs. Harriet John- ston Wood and she proposed that appli- cants for marriage licenses be required to show certificates from reputable physi- clans stating that they are free from in- | sanity, dipsomania, tuberculosis and other hereditary diseases. Among the speakers Slaughter Morton and Mrs. Phillls Lever- idge, who spoke as the wife of a physi- clan, SEVERE TAILORED SUITS Rough Materials Continue to Be Pop-| ular and Much Braiding is Used. Severest tallored style are the smartest thing for rough stuffs and the severe| tallored frock is much to the fore, but one | finds braiding used upon many of the BLUE SERGE. rough cloths and touches of velvet and embroldery are not considered amiss. | One thing militates against the triumphal | | career of these very rough woolens. They | {are not so practical for the popular three [ plece suit as broadcloth and finer serge would be, and this fact has led to a ‘l‘l‘l.([ matory for the young wamen students at)|vogue for the blouse en sulte with coat | | heaawear, | telt and skirt than was expected at the begin- ning of the season. This blouse problem has been discussed so recently that It seems hardly necessary to go Into it agaln, but each week brings out new and pretty blouse models. Chiffon velling, lace or chiffon over em- broldery net or lace Is always good and allows for many charming effects, but much 1s done now with thin silken blouses made of cashmere de sole or the lovely crepe weaves, and these models are, of course, rather more practical than the sheer ones. Some very good blouses are made up too in the softest, lightest and lovellest of molres, and these are par- ticularly good when made to accompany coats and skirts showing touches of molre in their trimming. LATE HATS AND HATPINS Novelties for Women and Children and What They Will Cont, Clusters of pearls in round and oblong shapes form the heads of some of the new- est hat pins. These pins, are to be used for mourning hats as well as for general though the more conservative woman will probably prefer the same de- signs carried out {n gun metal. A beautiful hat pin In a new design is large, round and flat, of gun metal, set with rhinestones. Then there are enamelled pins, the butterfly being one of the new- est designs, In a number of pretty color- Ings. The pearl pins are $1.60 each and the enamelled $3. No one Interested in chlldren’s hats can fall to notice the quaint effects they display this season. The most popular shape is the medium mushroom, the saucer crown and drooping brim, but In the trimming the quaint note Is struck. Recently such a pretty example of this was seen. The hat was of fine French In a shade of navy blue trimmed around the crown with a quilling of blue ribbon passing through a wreath of old fashioned fuchsias in all thelr natural coloring of reds, purples and whites, Though very smart and uncommon looking, this hat was perfectly practical. 5 Women on the Doard. The appointment of women to the Board of Education of New York by Mayor Me- Clellan, gives great satisfaction to both the suffragists and the antis throughout the country. . The suffragists declare that the change was brought about by thelr agitation In favor of equal pay for equal work, while the antls are equally sure that It 18 the result of a letter addressed to the mayor by thelr organigation. This letter bore the date of January 30, 1X6, and the assoclation opposed to woman suffrage asked the mayor to appoint women, insofar as the law would permit, to all educational, charitable, sanitary and — |out to work, reformatory boards. The suffragists de- clare that they will not give up until at least Walf of the school commissioners are woman, Chop Suey. Cut enough white meat or cold chicken or lean pork into pleces to welgh a pound. The strips should be about an inch in length, half an inch wide and one-quar- ter of an inch thick. Add two chicken livers that have been cut In dice and two chicken glzzerds sliced thin. Mix these meats and put into a hot frying pan with one-half cupful of celery cut in small pleces, a can of small button mushrooms and a quarter pound of bamboo or bean sprouts. Molsten with a cupful of water, season with a tablespoonful finely sliced onlons, one-half clove or minced garlie, four tablespoontuls peanut ofl, and salt and cayenne pepper to season. Stir frequently while cooking #o the mix- ture will not scorch, and if the water bolls away add a little more or a little white stock to keep moist. It should not take much more than ffve minutes for the cook- ing. Serve with Chinese rice and Shoyu sauce, which you can buy at any Chinese grocery. If it cannot be obtained easily a g00d imitation may be made by mixing equal parts Worcestershire sauce and Puerto Rico molasses. If you can not get the bean sprout, French pear, asparagus tps or tender string baeans may be sub- stituted. Another substitution is sometimes made by wrapping rice in a wet towel a day or two before the suey is made, and if the towel is kept molst a number of little rice sprouts may be obtained to use instead of the bean. Pudding a la Chantilly, Have ready a sponge cake made in a border mold ahd put the cake on a serving dish and pour over it a half cupful of any kind of fruit syrup and a cupful of maras- chino. Whip a pint of cream stiff, adding to it sugar and vanilla to taste.
