Society Notes : Personal Gossip : Woman's Work : Household Topics o SOCIETY FOLKS T0 G0 70 THE RACES Most of the Boxes Engaged by Those Who 8till Love to See a Horse Race. INTEREST BEING AROUSED By MELLIFICIA—August 17. Next week, beginning Tuesday, so- ciety will turn its attention to that noble creature, the horse. The oc- casion is the opening of the Great Western circuit races at the Speed- way. On that day Omahans will drive gut to the track in their commodious cars, there to forget them completely in the thrilling sights of a horse race. Although automobiles may have sup- planted horses as a means of trans- portation, they have in no way sur- passed them in interest. The human, pulsing endeavor of the splendid horses which have been entered in the race will awaken the ad- miration of the most apathetic. Oma- ha society, however, has never been apathetic toward horses. Many of the prominent women among us are ex- cellent horse women. The horse shows in the Auditorium were wont to call forth beauty and the chivalry of Oma- ha society. Miss Esther Byrne, now Mrs. William Fitzgerald; Miss Louise Peck, now Mrs. Denise Barkalow, were some of the charming and youthful performers. Among those who have made box reservations for the races are: T, C Byrne, G. C. Wharton, Ben Gallagher, P. W. Mikesell, W, M. Burgess, C. H Pickens, George H. Miller, L. H. Dris- haus, E. P Peck, Everett Bucking- ham and M. C. Peters. At Carter Lake. Thirty-five cottagers had luncheon at the club house Wednesday, the children’s matinee-dance following in the afternoon. ¢ Mrs. A. G.

D. | An important point to be watched | when washing the h“i‘ is that the | soap shall not be too strong; that is| to say, contain too much- alkali, as this excess will proceed to “make | soap” with the natural oil of the hair and scalp and wash it out, leav- ing both the scalp and hair hard| and dry. This can be tested by trying it on the hands. Any soap which fath-| ers too freely, though it may be excel- lent for the washtub or kitchen floor, | should not be used upon the human | skin. Also another straw is that the | lighter the cake of soap feels in the| hand and the more nearly it will float | in_water, the milder and safer for toilet use it is usually, as this means it contains plenty of fat and not 1 too much alkali. For the perfect ventilation of the | |scalp the best and most perfect in-| strument ever invented is the hair | brush, in the proportion of one part of bristles to three of ‘“elbow grease.” This scalp-saving combina- | tion works partly by lifting and fluff- | ing up the hair from the scalp so as| to allow free circulation of air,| partly by stimulating the circulation of the scalp by gently pulling at the| roots of the hair, and lasts, but not least, by brushing out of the hair| any dust or dirt or superfluous oil | that may be in it, or any scales which the hair has lifted up from its root-| sheath, It is not best to tiy to reach the surface of the scalp at every stroke, nor to use too stiff a brush, because the hair and scalp form a curious self-cleaning combination, in that the hair, although apparently so glossily smooth, is really covered with tiny scales which point upward and thus carry up and out as they grow any- thing which may have got into the roots of the hair-bulbs or onto the | surface of the scalp. So that trying| to brush the scalp itself is unneces- | sary and may easily do more harm MADE this picture on the boar City, It shows one of the bes Mrs. Neuberger, although she pe: one of the biggest enterprises in t and with her own business genius h Mother and Son--Happy Couple Chicago and New York City, Mrs, Mollie Netch- er Neuberger, riding in one of the big chairs with her good-looking son, Townsend Netcher.

A fortunate mother, and a fortunate son to have such a mother—NELL BRINKLEY. rsonally manages he United States, as beaten most of than good, Use no brush stiffer, or harder, than you can comfortably use on the back of your hand for this sort of “currying,” which should form nine- tenths of your brushing, although of course for simply parting or smooth- ing and disentangling hair, or for a brief “glow,” a stiffer brush may also be used. As a general thing, wire brushes do more harm than good to the scalp. For the exercise ~of the scalp, fingers' were made not only before forks but before brushes, combs or masseurs. Unfortunately, the habit of rubbing or scratching the head has | fallen into esthetic and conventional direpute, both on account of its un- couthness and of the transient popu- lation of "undezirable citizens” which | it is supposed to imply. But any- thing which gives us as much comfort and satisfaction as thorough rubbing and scratching of the head does is| pretty likely to have something good ifi it. Fortunately, there is much in |a name, and when we change the title of this uncouth and uncultured pro- ceeding to “massage” it becomes a process of high hygienic value at | once. Thorough and vigorous massage of the scalp for ten or fifteen minutes both night and morning with those best of rollers or vibrators ever yet invented, the tips of the fingers, is of great value in keeping the scalp, and through it the hair, in healthy condi- | tion, It is best done either just before | or just after retiring at night and just before rising in the morning. This for | the reason that it is an admirable | means hoth of soothing your nerves | down for a quict sleep at night, and, carried out in more staccato fashion, of “rubbing yourself awake” in the) morning. Also because it is much less muscular effort, especially for women who are not in vigorous physical training, to put the hands up to the head and keep them there during the ten minutes or so of active finger| movements when lying down than when standing or sitting.

Fry out several thin slices of bacon: add thin slices of beef and fry lightly; add pepper and a few drops of lemon juice. Serve with sauer kraut, heated in can, Boiled Beef With Sauce Matelote. Cut the cold beef in firm slices and fry it in some pure lard with some small onions, a golden brown, disselve a pinch of flour, add it and let boil for a few min- utes; then pour over this a small glass of ordinary red wine. Next add a very little beef extract, salt and pepper and let slowly simmer for an hour. French cooks, and in fact most European chefs believe a little wine is necessary in most sauces, but the wine may be omitted Cold Beef Salad. Cut the beef in small disks and sprinkle with chopped onions, parsley and any other additions you fancy, such as chopped cooked beets, cucum- ber or pickles.
