ANGIENT HOMES TELL OF THE OLDEN DAY Old Mansion of the Early Days Given Over to be Boarding House. BUSINESS OROWDS IT OUT MELLIFICIA, July 24. Did the fate of old mansions ever strike you as romantic? As I walked down a certain street of Omaha the other day I saw beautiful old brick houses, the kind that instinctively make one think of old-established families, completely surrounded by cheap modern houses running over with '~ tternly women and unkempt chil” town has its quota of just ises. I like to imagine them aust have been in their prime. sy must- have bubbled over and gayety. What stately ‘th snowy hair and bobbing t have presided at the pol- :d in the paneled dining halll a great ball would be given polished floors would be r the dancers. The stately the snowy hair. would array | in her crackling robes’ of silk, tne , ung daughters would be brushed and powdered and dressed demurely. Then the great heavily- carved front door would swing back and hacks and big old-fashioned car- riages would drive up to the porte- cochere with a grand flourish, there to give up a stream of bustling berib- obned and frock-coated freight. Oh, the stories that these old hous- es could tell of people and plans. What events they have seen or what skeletons lurk in their dim, dusty closets. But here they are stranded high and dry by-the onrushing flood of the busy city’s life and societr. All over Omaha and any fairly old city you can see these sad old wrecks, suggesting volumes. of past history, but moldering, milkweed and vacant, too antiquated and misplaced for the rich, too expensive and un- wholesome for the poor. s 7 At the Country Club.

You certainly can tell them your | deepest secret for they know how to keep secrets—from parents, sisters and brothers and dearest friends, even. Of course all their friends knew the young people were engaged and that Mr. Buresh was building a lovely little home in Minne Lusa addition for his bride.
