Plans for greatly extended work were made by the members of the Franco-Belgian Relief society at their meeting yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. John A. McShane. The work of the organization for the year will be the making’ of surgical dress- ings for the war hospitals in Europe, following patterns of surgical dress- ing furnished by the national surgical dressing committee, whose office is at 299 Fifth avenue, New York. After these articles are made they are for- warded to the central committee for distribution in Europe. The bandages are made by the women, then sent to one of the local hospitals for ster- * ilization, next packed by one of the merchants of the city, and finally sent to_the central office. Following the suggestion of a letter which was received from the Franco- Belgian Relief society in Kansas City, the Omaha organization decided to enlarge its work so that every morn- ing and afternoon of the' week will be sperit by some women of the city in working for the relief of the suf- ferers. The officers of the society were ap- inted for the year: Mrs, John A. cShane, president; Dan heeler i arrie Millard, vice presi- iss Helen Scobie, treasurer, and Miss Gertrude Young, secretary. The committees appointed to care for the enlarged work were: . Housing, Mesdames Jolin A, McShane, Ezra Millard and Harold Gifford; packing and expediting, Mrs. O, C. Redick and Miss Jessie Millard. “The committees on publicity and finance will be ap- pointed at the next meeting.

I remember once looking through an album of photographs in the drawing room of a famous singer. There was one photograph among them which particularly struck me. It was so different from the rest. It was the likeness of an-old lady very plainly dressed—not at all like a queen or an empress or anybody of that kind. So strangely different from the rest, “That, Forfune,” said the singer in reply to my question who she was, s the woman to whom I owe every- thin, cverYthug. ‘Would you believe it?. When I was a girl I had the most atrocious temper in the world—the most frightfully atrocious! And that woman was my nurse as a child and my maid later. How she cried that day when my singing master—I was in a little temper that da%/—-uid he washed his hands of me, flew down the stairs four at a time and I tore up and scattered the music on his head from the window as he rushed down the street. She cried. She would not stop. To her I owe every- thing '—and how, “‘Stop!' I shouted. ‘Why are you crying' And she would not stop. ‘Stop, Imbecile,' I shouted, ‘or I will bite {oul Why are you crying?' “‘I am crying,’ she replied, ‘be- cause I love you and you disappoint me so.' “I had never thought of that. She loved me, and I disappointed her? “‘You will fly after that poor terri- fieg®man,’ I said, ‘and bring him back. Tell him that I am a lamb. Fly! Why do you gape at me like that? Do I not tell you I am a lamb? Will you fly, or must I throw you out of the window?' Original Cooking Club. Mrs, W. H.

But the moth- er managed to cling to her child, and her experience enabled her to bring both to the surface amid the tossing fragments of ice. In a moment they were seen from fiue ship, which had escaped serious injury, and a bullet in the brain ended the mother’s life. But a boat put off and took the cub aboard. Years afterward a huge white bear, nine feet long, and weighing 1,500 pounds, was the wonder-piece of ai er told how she had been taken at sea when a cub, and had been brought up in her cage and her artificial den made to look as much as possible like a pile of Arctic ice blocks.

They had been married only a short time, when a sudden emergency required her to turn to and cook the dinner herself. “You going to cook the dinner!” John exclaimed, as he was leaving that morning. “Gracious! Well, 1 shan't expect much.” \ That was just the mistake. dinner—but the less said about it the better: It was “just as he expected.” Exactly!
