It is said that no other vogue iu the modern history of Women's fads has enjoyed the continued and universal popularity that has been the lot of ParisiaR ivory. It has for so long been @ feminine fCible CT fashion that it has al- most established itself as tradition and has taken 8 place with it's edged-out contemporaries, ebony and sterling, as permanent @c- cessory for milady'a dressing table. Complete sets and single pieces to complet sets are more in demand this season than eyer by the school girl, the college girl. the bride, or housewife or grandmother.
 No Etore has a more complete or satisfactory display of Parisian Ivory than Keller Bros. Drug company. This was secured by them in the East on an order placed last spring with the Arlington Ivory company, the largest manufacturera Of this ware in the country. It will pay you to see this display and buy early.

"Adjectives'' is an interesting game One of the players writes a letter, which, of course, he does not show, leaving a blank for every adjective, He then asks each player in turn round the table for an adjective, filling up the blank spaces with adjectives as he re- ceives them.
 The following short letter will eL- plain the game better than a long de- scrlptiOn. The quoted words arc the given adjectiYes:

JAPAN FURNISHES
ENGLAND'S TOYS

London, Dec. 6-Japan has helped out the English Christmas shop ping season by providing the ba- zaars with enough toys to supply the war deficit. Before the war Germany controlled almost the entire British toy trade. English toy industries have since started up, but could not fill all the orders frcm the shops. Then an importing tirm sent samples of German toys to Japan. In some ways the Jap anese output has exceeded expecta- tions. The new Japanese toys include clockwOrk animals, such as jumipng dogs and horses, cheap speaking dolls and imitation skin animals. While not a musical peO- pie in the EropeaD sense the Jap aness also manufactUre toy musi- cal instruments,
