NEW IDEAS FOR THE BLOUSE
Must Look to New Weaves and Fab.
rice for Innovations In Funda-
mental Style.

At this time Of year comes the
blouse problem. Blouses selected at
the seasons opening are beginning to
show wear, and unless one has start
ed out with a practically unlimited
supply midsoason brings need for re-
Punishment.
The fundamental style of the blouse
rarely changes except in autumn and
spring. New ideas in trimming ap-
pear from time to time, new collar
here and novel sleeve or cuff there,
but the modelling shows little varia,
tion. One must look to new weayes
and designs in fabrics for any limo
walton in the separate blouse.
In resume of the prevailing model.
ing 1t is well to start by taking stock
of the collar. Last autumn there was
a broadside of announcements from
the style ateliers decreeng that ones
blouse could not be considered smart
unless 1t was equipped with high
collar. This feature, so the style ere.
ators iterated and reiterated, must be
fashioned to conform with the dictates
of fashion, and fashion was to permit
not the slightest deviation from the
high collar
The high collars appeared-and they
disappeared. Quite a few women
bowed to the style mandate but soon
there were deserters from their ranks.
Today very few women subscribe com.
plete allegiance to the high,collared
blouse. The comfort of the open neck
finish is partly responsible, but, If the
truth be told, this style is favored be-
cause 1t is more universally becoming.

A Few Things Different.

A new circular cape on each shout.
der is one of the new ideas.
Aprons Of crinoline are cleverly used
to distend the skirts of tailored suits.
The apron, of stiff crinoline, plated
closely, hangs from the inside of the
skirt band at either side. giving the
silhouette the right lines.
Large fat collars of the sailor and
Puritan order are in vogue.
In one Fifth avenue shop was seen
handsome suit of corn.color Grape,
very simple, with an effective note OF
contrast introduced in the vest of dark
blue taffeta covering the entire front
of the coat.
More women than usual are wearing
white lingerie waists with their tail
ored suits. Sometimes the waists are
OF batlste and tailored.

Brandeis' Buyer is
Guest at Banquet

B. L. Danforth, who for sixteen
years has been buyer of cloaks and
suits for the Brandeis stores, was the
guest of honor Wednesday night at
Hotel Loyal, where thirty-four of his
store associates, after sumptuous
feast, presented him with a seal belt
and an engraved solid gold belt
buckle. Mr.. Danforth is leaving
Omaha to become an active partner
in the firm OF Fantel Bros. in Sioux
Falls, S. D.
The retiring buyer has seen three
generations of the Brandeis family
at the helm of the big business house
and has watched the store develop
from the little Boston store at Six
teenth and Douglas streets to the
present mammoth plant. the biggest
store in the middle west

IF Anyone Wants One of the New
City Lamps Now is Time to Ask

1--WE want light" was the gist Of
appeals made bv many citizens before
the city council. Some represented
improvement clubs, others spoke for
neighborhoods and many spoke for
themselves.
One OF the problems confronting
the city council in connection with
the new lighting system is that OF
meeting the expectations of commun-
tiles which have installed special or
namental systems and are now asking
the city for maintenance. These dis
tricts will not come within the pro-
visions of the five-year contract with
the light company and it is believed
the city will maintain these outlying
ornamental lamps on basis of cur
rent used, rather than on a yearly
per-lamp basis.
Residents Of Bemis park district
want the. city to maintain LIS 100
candle-powcr lamps and Mime Lusa
addition makes the same request. In
each instance the equipment is ready
and will become the property of the
city after period of five years. The
fiye-year contract makes no specific
provision for situations OF that nature
and any arrangement made between
the city and the frslt company will
require special consideration. On the
basis of 1000 burning hours per year,
and at the rate of 3.3 cents per kilo-
watt hour, the acknowledgement
lamps would be worth 1924 each a

Christmas Gobbler Will Auiate
Few Pennies Before You Eat Him

Unless present signs fail turkeys
will take jump before Christmas
day. At Thanksgiving time the price
was 81 cents a pound for choice tur-
keys, although few markets adver-
tised a lower price. 1t is predicted
that the prices next week will be
from IS to 50 cents a pound
A meat market man was questioned
by householder, who explained he
intended buying a turkey for his
Christmas family gathering and he
wanted to order in advance, so as to
be sure OF a good selection.

householder

poets Connects Them Up.
FEDERAL MEN TAKE THEM

With the completion, link by link,
OF chain Of circumstaEtial evidence
,gainst them, Frank and Harry God
dard, arrested in connection with the
Wmslow bank robbery, have been
turned over to federal authorities,
charged with the robbery of the Fon-
tenelIe posto:G,- on November ), last.
Sheriff w. C. Condit OF Fremont,
Charles w. Pipkin, the Craig Ken
nedy' of .he Omaha police force. and
Chief Of Detectives Steve Maloney
worked -" the case.
In the prosecution OF the alleged
bandits broken knife blade and a
mackinaw coat will figure largely,
and it was on this evidence that they
were turned over to the government
officials. Suspicion first fell on the
Goddafds when it was learned that
they were in Fontenelle on the day
of the robber,, but this W not con-
sidered sufficient to justify their ar
rest, despite their alleged long GRIM
inal records. Then a broken knife
blade was fou1d in the lock Of the
door and later it was learned that a
mackinaw coat had been stolen from
the store in which the Fontenelle
postofhce is located.
With this meager evidence police
officers centered their attention on
the case. On one of the men when
arrested was found knife with
broken hlade while the other uore a
mackinaw coat. The knife blade
found in the postoffce door at Fon-
tenc.le was sent for and it fitted per-
fectly the knife taken off one of the
alleged band is This strengthened
the chain of evidence against the men,
but the police did not feel sure OF
their case until Theodore Sherman
identified the mackinaw.
Each of the defendants was held
under $1,000 bond when arraigned be-
fore United States Commission Nc

You Can't Brush or

The only sure way to get rid OF
daudruff is to dissolve it, then you de-

about four ounces Of ordinary liquid

use enough to moisten the scalp and
rub it i'll gently with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most il not all of your dandruff will
be gone. and three or four more APP
plications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy every single sign
and trace OF it, no matter how much
dandrutf that you may have.
You will find too, that all itching
and digging OF the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
