PEACE
HE announcement came suddenly
on that November day. Outside
the bells were ringing, whistles were
blowing, automoblies were honking by,
and there was the sound of all sorts of
nolse-producing instruments. We had
been expecting an announcement of
some sort and were not surprised. As
1 hurried Into the street to join the
throng, a friend grasped my hand,
“The armistice has been signed;
peace has come,” he announced joy-
fully.
It was a never-to-be-forgotten scene
—the crowd, unorggnized, waving to
and fro, filled with emotion of one
sort or another because of the long-ex
pected or long-desired peace.
To most of those in the throng, It
h#td a personal meaning; there were a
few, perhaps, who considered even In
those exciting moments the responsi
blilties and readjustments which peace
would entall-—readjustments the most
stupendous, perhaps, that any nations
have had to make—but these people
were few,
There was the singing and cheering
and a few brief pointed speeches, and
we turned home again through the
dim light of early morning, tired
thoughtful, happy. We had done our
part whole-heartedly in the war, tardy
though we were In taking up our task.

There Is no better business policy
than to acknowledge every letter that
one receives, promptly, courteously,
and to the point. The time that pro.
feasional and business men give to an-
swering letters widens thelr influence,
and adds to their business efficiency.
Men fail to answer letters from selfish
gess, carelessness, thoughtiessness,
ignorance—almost never because they
are too busy. The busy man cannot
afford to put off the duty-he answers
right away.
There Is no greater social finesse
thun that seen in the promptness and
care with which some people answer
letters or acknowledge courtesies In
writlug. The man who wants to get
on in business or to make and keep
friends should acknowledge every
courtesy and answer every letter
which he recelves whother it seems to
his immediate advantage or not.

THINGS TO
WATCH
Head Size Must Be Correct;

The fit of the hat now enters In a
quest for new hats,
Nowadays few women lke to wenr
a hat that has to be padded, however
carefully the bandeau is put In, coifs
demand a well-fitting hat,
For one thing, the fit of the hat has
everything to do with its serviceabll-
ity. The hat with exactly the right
head size, that seems to belong with
the wearer's head, gets fewer knocks
than the one that doesn’t really fit
correctly. The hat that Is too large
blows about, one Is reaching continual-
ly and sliding it off one ear over on
the other. The hat that is too small
Is constantly being pushed from the

And comfort? The word is unknown
to the woman who tries to wear a hat
that does not fit her head, so It pays
to search diligently and patiently un.
til you find what you want. Otherwise
you will discard the hat after a few
weeks or less of torment anyway, and
the whole thing will have to be gone
through with again.
For a hat to fit, there are just two
things necessary: the head size must

A detall of masculine attire which
is being adapted In a fetching man-

bosom. This Is a new and exceeding.
ly smart design in which overblouses,
sports shirts and the simpler frocks
are made. Some of these fronts are
finely piaited in the same material
Some are ornamented with needie-
work. But the very latest, says a
fashion writer in the New York Times,
is the front shaped precisely like that
fn a man's shirt, the pattern of which
is outlined In print only. These are
very cleverly done, very delicate and
graceful, especially on the white and
light-colored crepes,
In soft little frocks, especially two-
plece suits consisting of a kilted skirt
and overblouse, printed “fronts” give
a bit of snap that suggests the tall
leur, and they have “taken” like mad.
Several prominent couturiers have
been showing these models, the most
lovely ones perhaps by Martial et Ar
mand, who are bringing out new varl
ants that will be seen at Palm Beach
and other Southern resorts the coming
winter. The prettiest suits are those
in white, with the pattern done In
color, giving at a distance the effect of
hand-embroldery, cross-stitch or etch.

This season's version of the sleeve

the very latest design is bullt of rib

Clipped Coif Vogue Is
Favored by Parisienne
Notwithstanding the ornatism of the
evening mode and the formality of
the new daytime fashions, the bob
marches with its head as serenely high,
as ever. With the renaissance of so
many ancient themes-—even the sepa-
rate blouse and contrasted skirt have
been offered this season--there was a
current suspicion that the clipped colf

The latest reports from Paris, how.

has not lessened In the least, and the
modern Parisienne wears ber halt

observed that it is easier to stim-

them by punishment. Naturally, this
applies to children even more than to
adults, An interesting and amusing {J-

recent issue of the Listening Post, the
monthly bulletin of the Pennsylvania
department of health.

Mrs, Maggie Durbin, 139 Riverside

this to say about her experience:
“1 was troubled for five years with
a chronic disease. 1 tried ever

my trouble was catarrh of the

bowels. The medicine 1 took did

A letter from Mrs. Durbin, dated
December 12, 1923, shows that, even
after twenty-two years, she is in
the best of health: “I still recom-
mend PE-RU-NA to my friends
who need a good medicine and
everybody is Ped, I thank Fe

There is nothing strange in this
experience of Mrs. Durbin. It has
been repeated thousands of times
