Till Daylight at
the Charity Ball

Those who attend the Pavlows charity
ball at the Auditorium the evening OF
December 16 are TO have the privilege OF
dancing as long as they please after the
program ends at 1880 o'clock. Not only
will the orchestra play as long as II Is
wanted, but the dancers OF the pavlowa
company will mingle with the crowd and
an excellent opportunity of learning the
latest steps will be presented.
The orchestra which will play Wednes-
day evening probably has never been ex-
celled in Omaha. II will be provided by
the Omaha Musicians union and will be
led by Director Silverton of the Orpheum
orchestra.
Many features OF the entertainment are
novel in this city and that this fact is
generally recognized Is made evident by
the rapid sale of tickets. Nearly all the
boxes already have been sold.
Half hundred members of the Rotary
club have been actively engaged IN work
ing for the success OF the ball, and a
letter calling up the reserves has been re-
ceived by all members.

Homemade Valentine Favors

THE girl who can wield a water color
 brush and who has original ideas of her own can make many novel and pretty valentine favors at little cost. For the world of flowers and lovers and the arrows Of cupid and his old. old target are at her disposal for designs. But not all girls can paint and some times the girls who can paint lack time enough to make, original cards and gifts.
 The packages Of ready cut mat paper hearts, arrows and cupfds. all of them either a pretty rose pink OF a bleeding heart red are among the most useful things. package holds from twelve to thirty-six, according to sfzes for there are various sizes of each of these shapes. from the little ones an inch or so long or across to .he hearts that are four inches in diameter.
 Then, besides these ready cut sym bo1s of St Valentine. there is a variety of new crape papers and napkins in the most fascinating designs, and hearts and cupids and arrows and flow to stfffer papers.
 One of the prettiest napkins has a heart outlined on it with wild roses. and each corner has one a pair of rose colored hearts. This big rose out lined heart might be cut out and used to applique on a white cloth or to use as a. dolly on Q cloth.
 In the latter case it would be better to e-enforce the crape with a stronger paper back before cutting. The pretty rose colored double hearts tn the cor ners might be used as place cards with a marrow arrow of white paper across for the name and ribbon at the top. Across the top of one of the crape papers there i6 a string Of hearts of various sizes in a pretty rose color. and these might be cut out and used for place cards. to decorate tally cards or menus. around ice cups. etc The lower side of this paper has a lovely festoon of wild roses caught up with big red ribbon bows.
 This paper. cut out around the. edge of the wild rose festoon and used over a frill of rose colored paper. would make a very effective. drapery for a table or booth.
