In this winter of soaring prices
it is a comfort to know that some
of our vegetables have stayed at
about their usual level Unfortunate
ly, these vegetables are kinds which
are frequently scorned and passed by
with remark such as; "Turnips
may be cheap, but I'd rather starve
than eat them" There is not much
that housewife can do when her
family refuses to try certain foods,
but there are few devices worth
trying. At the present time our chief
concern is to find substitutes for po-
tatoes and undoubtedly rice, maca-
roni and cereals, such as cornmeal,
are nearer like potatoes in starchl-
ness and blend flavor than any OF
the vegetables. Certain Of the root
vegetables, however, notably turnips
and parsnips of the common varieties,
are fairly similar to potatoes in gen
eral composition They do not fur
nish as much fuel value, but they do
add more mineral matter, which is so
necessary to health. Hence in serv-
ing either of these foods one is giving
very valuable foodstuffs.
As to devices to persuade people
to eat what they are quite sure they
will not eat-I can think OF no bet
ter ways than to cook the scorned
food to perfection, serve it attrac-
lively and use it at first in combina,
ton with other food materials which
will partially conceal the Original
favor. The ideal method of serving
vegetable is to bring out only it:
own favor, but all methods must BE-
twisted to suit special occasions. Ic
conceal the characteristic taste OF a
strong favored vegetable, serve II
fried or sauted at first. We may
not always recommend fried food:
from the standpoint of digestibility
but no method of cooking is more
universally liked. The vegetable may
simply be Drowned in fat, it may
be made into a croquette or 1t may
be fried in batter as fritter.
Another method of Disgusting favo'
is by cooking with meat
Preparation of Turnips and Parsnips
Wash, pare and cook in boiling
salted water. Turnips, being special
ly strong favored, are best cooked IL
large quantities of water in an oper
kettle; time, about one hour. Iim'
for parsnips, forty-hve minutes.
Simplest methods of serving: Drain
add salt, pepper and melted butter
A little minced parsley may be sprln
kled over the vegetables, especial,
nice with turnips,
Serve in medium white sauce, al
lowing one part of sauce to two part
of diced vegetable. Dreamed turnip
or parsnips may be turned into

BY DOROTHY DIX.

The only crusade against the De-
mon Rum that has ever amounted to
row of pins is that waged by big
business men. Temperance oratory
and blue-ribbon movements were
mere words and hysteria, but when
large employers, with good Jobs to
give. firmly announced that the hand
that lifted the highball would never
pull down a pay envelope in their
service, we began getting PROFIT
biton that really prohibits.
Now, what drink is to young man
dress is to a girl. It's her temptation.
It's her snare. It's the thing that she
flies to for consolation in moments OF
trouble, and the way she expresses her
exuberance in times OF Joy. It's the
thing that she puts upon her back
that takes away her reason. Clothes
are her spree, her jag, her dellrlum
tremens of chiffons and beads and
high heels and frills.
Every one has seen that something
should be done to curb the dress
mania in girls-and especially the
present undress habit-but no one has
known how to do it, Shocked old
ladies have held up their hands in
horror over skirts that climbed higher
and higher toward the knee line and
stockings that get thinner and thinner
until they have almost reached the
vanishing point. Moralists have in,
weighed against calling a wisp Of
flesh-coored chiffon a bodice anc
letting it go at that Doctors have
warned against the dangers of pneu
monia in bare necks in wintry
weather. All to no purpose.
Dress-drunk young women have
continued to wear what we used tt
consider ball costumes to breakfast
and when you went into an office yol
couldn't tell whether the fluffy-headet
maiden in gorgeous array that 20,
beheld at the typewriter was the mil
lionaire proprietor's daughter on he
way to party or poor working CIR
trying to earn an honest living.
| Now, however, the men who cameo
the can in the drink problem 70
young men have turned their atten
ton toward dress reform for girls, a
least during business hours, AM
there's going to be such a combinl
of hair, and washing of faces, ant
pulling down of skirts, and pulling III
of waists as will crafty the souls o
all of those who like to see lady loo
like a lady. For girls may be dea
to the voice of the preacher, but whel
the employer speaks it penetrates be
meath even the most marcelled coli
fure, and the owner thereof sits u
and takes notice.
The leader in this great campaign
for dress decorum is the Mutual Bene
fit Life Insurance company of Ne
wark, which has informed its femal
employees that hereafter they will b
expected to eschew gewgaws, and at
tire themselves as BELTS sensibl

Omaha Nurses Do Not
Go to Front at This Time

Ten Omaha nurses who responded
nearly month ago to the government
request for duty on the Mexican Dor
der did not leave Omaha Tuesday as
had been expected The order was
recalled a few days ago when all the
National Guard troops were ordered
home from the border.
These nurses had made all prepara-
ton to go and had been treated with
serums to make them immune from
typhoid and typhus.
The ten nurses who had prepared
to go were:
Frances McKiron, Hedwig Weller

All the young women belong to the

February 20

In view of the long, lean weeks to
come, the abundance of society events
on today's calendar is something to
0loat over. This, you sec, is Shrove
Tuesday, and So mayhap society pco-
pie are trying to crowd into one short
day the pleasures which they VIII
neglect for such long, dismal, dreary
time when pleasures will be OF the
mind and the spirit, rather than OF
the earth earthly.
Probably the matter OF greatest
local interest today is the perform
ance of The Amazons" this evening
There is a certain delicious excite
ment about seeing your friends and
neighbors in strange CARDS maSquer-
aiding on the stage. There is a spee-
cal humping OF the heart that only
the amateur knows while he waits IN
the wings for his cues. Vivisectlon
Of the unfortunate players is the IA
vorite indoor sport OF the knowing
ones in the audience. "So-and-so was
too perfectly dear in her part, don't
YOU think? Or wasn't Mr.. ThiS-and-
that clever?" All of it, however, is
very palpitating and vital to the
whole community, and so more to see
our local stars at-might-have-been
than to help the worthy cause OF the
American ambulance in Paris, the
prominent people of Omaha will I'LL
the theater this evening,
The little girls at Brownell Hall are
enthusiastically practicing for their
performance this evening The en-
tire chorus of little girls from the
junior high school will represent a
miniature grand opera chorus, not
only in costumes but in manner Of
appearance. The ticket sale has been
creditable and probably Omaha has
enough people to support at least
two events on the same night.
1t was interesting to see that as
the throng of music lovers and con-
cert patrons was pouring from the
Auditorium last evening another
stream, which seemed almost as large,
was issuing from the vaudeville
house nearby.
An equally select audience as any
other that will gather today will hear
Leopold Godowsky at the theater this
afternoon when he appears in recital
before the Tuesday Morning Musical
club. Nearly everyone has been
looking forward to his coming and
is delighted to know that he Is to
be one OF the features Of this event
full day.

A DUCK STORY.

This is about time for the annual
crop of duck stories. This one is
contributed by the Cherryville (Kas.)
Republican:
"Jim Jacobs had quite an exciting
experience while hunting ducks a
few days ago. He had made repeated
attempts to get in range of big flock
that had settled on his pond, but
each time the ducks would fly be-
fore he got in shooting distance.
AS soon as he would leave the ducks
would return. Finally Jim threw his
old muzzle loader away and gathered
about dozen big pumpkins and set
them afloat on his pond. After the
ducks got used to the pumpkins Jim
followed one out, with eyes like
jack-o'lantern, and slipped it over his
head. Then he walked out in the
pond up to his neck, and when the
flock was all punched up he got out
among the ducks and caught them
by the feet.
"The plan worked all right, but
Jim was too greedy and kept catch
ing them until he suddenly felt him
self rising out of the water. and was
terrified when he found that he was
being rapidly carried awGy by the
frightened mallards. He didn't dare
let go for fear of falling, and every
second he was being raised higher
above the earth. Finally a bright idea
occurred to him, and he began to re-
lease the ducks, one by one, until he
got too heavy and they gradually set
tied down. He still had enough
ducks that when he dressed them
there was meat to last him and his
family all winter"

THE AUTUMN
GOATS MAKE
THEIR DEBUT
Fashion Decides For Straight Lines
and Hip Drapery.
PERSONALITY PLUS PATRIOTISM.
NEW YORK. Sept. 6, 1917.

NEW YORK, Sept. b, 1917.
Though the weather man continues
his maddening report of flair and
warmer" we fear him not at all, fot
we have far weightier things on our
minds than the mere rise in tempera-
ture. The time to seriously plan the
Autumn wardrobe has come, and
nothing can interfere with that de-
lightful task. Indeed, it must be
more carefully planned this year than
ever. There is no better formula for
the woman of fashion TINA Person
ality Plus Patriotism"
Naturally, the coat plays a very i'm
potant part in the scheme of things
this time of the year. Cool weather
demands coat, and fashion decides
which coat. The smart wrap makes a
deep impression on the casual OBJ
server, for, as every one knows, ap-
pearances count for a great deal in
this world. There are top coats and
suit coats and evening coats; and,
oh, the number of fascinating models
there are to choose from!
The top coat has been so very pop
ular for some time that we have come
to feel that no wardrobe is complete
without at least one. On Fifth Ave
nue. one feels almost nonplussed by
their great variety. There are coats
that cling to the figure, proclaiming
in every line their allegiance to the
straight silhouette. The draped
coats, rivals of straight-line effects
have soft puffings and folds cunning
ly arranged to give the required full
ness across the hips. There are coats
