Sack Frost versus 81. Valentine.
Now what on earth are we to do against
Jack Frost, this fellow who
With % below the line came here to thWart
st. Valentine?
First this rogue OF low degree brought
snow and then. by lingo, he
Froze all the hearts in Omaha 50 hard
that none OF them could thaw,
And when our little Valentine hit hearts
his arrows tevery timeD
in splinters broke and left no mark upon
the frosty. hardened heart;
But still our archer shot his shafts, until
Jack Frost came running fast.
And with his north winds sharpest sting he
cut our tiny friends bow-string,
And with Ice tweezers pinched his nose and
chased him home mid whirling SHOWS.
And now young Valentine, half frozc, be-
fore his fire warns his toes;
His quivcrs empty. and his bow is useless
made by his cold foe
And so this day / get no line from my dear
John and Valentine.

In the six day bicycle races the pace
tells terribly at the end Man after
man falls out exhausted. The victor
wabbles wearily over the line. In the
business race it's the same. Man after
man drops out exhausted. The success
ful man Is often dyspeptic, unable to
enjoy success. When the stomach is
diseased there Is not enough nutrition
assimilated to sustain the body and re-
pair the daily waste of tissues. The
result is weakness, tending 10 collapse.

While the Associated Charities, the
county and city have been taxed to care
for the poor during the last month, a
heavy work has fallen to the Visiting
Nurses association in its care for the
poor sick. The month ending February Is
was the hardest and heaviest in the history
of the association. Owing to the prevail
ence of grip it was difficult to secure
nurses enough to care for all the patients
and several were brought over from Coun-
Gil Bluffs. During the month eighty-seven
patients were cared for, nine of which re-
quired special nurses; 500 visits were made
and fifty-three Of the patients being grip
cases. There were four deaths. AS this
work is among the most unfortunate and
destitute of the city it is frequently neces-
sary to provide the necessities in clothing
and food. These items have to be met
out of special donations or provided
through societies of women over the city
who DO auxiliary work in the way of sew
ing. The regular funds of the association
are taxed to provide medicines and pay
the salaries of the trained nurses.

There has been a little system of piracy
in operation among some Of Omaha's fash
ionable danes OF late that has aroused the
ire Of some other fashionable danes to the
point of doing something" The servant
problem is by no means new one in
Omaha, and the supply of competent domes-
tics Is by no means equal to the demand
Not all the fashionable families make
practice of retaining their full CORPS of
servants during the summer vacation and
as a result there is usually general chang
ing about spring and fall, all of which
is perfectly legitimate. as IT is usually a
change for the better where It is volun-
tary. But this winter, II is alleged, certain
we'll known society women have resorted
TO means "unbecoming a lady" to secure
desired cooks or maids. One woman learn
ing that a luncheon at which she was a
guest had been planned by her hostess
cook, had the audacity to inquire of that
hostess the name of her cook and promptly
wrote her note Offering Inducements that
were promptly accepted. Another woman
telephoned four times In one day to the
home of a friend, to a maid who had for
merly been In her employ. with the result
that that maid resigned shortly to return
TO her former mistress Notwithstanding the
fact that the friend" was about to give a
series of entertainments which was quite
we'll known to this enterprislng lady. And
these are only some of the things that have
happened of late that have afforded themes
for discussion among fashionable women
and made them determined to use names IL

ners and hearts, Such a crush of unm-
portant things as there has been these past
six days and the most Of them in honor
of ST. Valentine, too. But they have all
been pretty, valentine parties could scarcely
be otherwise, and the fact they were mostly
unpretentious only added to their enjoya-
bility. This week the Ratchet and the
cherry tree will take the place of the heart
and the cupid and society will search the
depths of the family trunk for garments
Of the Colonial period in which to array
itself and it's tables in celebration of

The busybodies are saying and saying
very persistently too that there is to be a
wedding out in California before long, prob
ably next month, and that the interested
parties are to be two very well known
Omaha people. He is n lieutenant on the
STAFF of General Wint and she is a young
matron who has had her share of social
attention ever since she came out seven
or eight years ago. Just why the wedding
is to take place out of town, however, is
not clearly explained by the busybodies
except that as her former marriage was
church affair, and one of the conspicuous
events of the season she prefers a
privacy that could scarcely be secured in
Omaha owing to her social position.
