Dear M'Liss-Can you tell me an in

formal dance for her. but no programs.
Also the fact that can have only buffet
supper eliminates the possibility of an

"cracSers" which. when pulled, instead of
producing Ounce caps, will reveal little
notes announcing the betrothal?
NEW JERSEY.
Since you say you are not going to have
favors or programs at your dance, why
not have the announcement made in this
way. At the intermission between the
dances have a telegram delivered to you.
II can be real or "faked"-that is, de-
livered by a younSster in the neighbor-
hood and written on one of the telegraph
companies blanks. II should be received
with IN air of great mystery by you for
being tho mother you are the proper one
TO announce your daughters betrothal.
Word II like this: "To Miss Mary Smith,
party OF the first part and Mr.. John Jones,
party of the second part, Dan Cupid wires
his felictations." Your daughter can
then ec5ive the congratulations of her
friends.
False crackers, into which you insert
the announcement, are not to be bought

shops. Why not slip a scroll bearing
the news into the end of one of the reg
This can be done, If the ends are care
fully untwisted, without damage to the
cracker.
or you might make as many hearts
out of red paper as you have guests.
Write the news on one side of the heart
in gold ink. Now hide the hearts in every
nook and corner of the room. During
the intermission announce that there are
number of perfectly good hearts missing,
and that you will give a reward to the
lucky girl or man who finds the most.
Have a heart-shaped box of bonbons for
a prize.

Pneumonia, What to Do
When the Crisis Comes
BY WILLIAM BRADY, NJ. D.


Tn PNEUMONIA and some other acute
ILLNESSES there is a time in most cases,
when the high fever disappears and the
patient experiences marked relief from the
symptoms he has been suffering. This
sudden disappearance Of the fever is
called the crisis. Gt is eagerly welcomed,
and by no means a fearful event. The
word crisis, thus applied is not the
same as the crisis of a battle or some
great movement The crisis of pneumonia
is favorable in Itself, always. II occurs
at any time from the third TO the 18th
day.
why the crisis?
1t occurs i'm a few hours. perhaps 10 or
I 5 hours-the temperature drops from i03
degrees or l04 degrees or higher down to
normal or two or three degrees below the
normal 9S degrees a profuse sweat ac-
companies the fall in temperature. All OF
this Is a distinct relief to patient and ply
sician There Is no particular reason why
a change for the worse should be feared at
or near the time of the crisis. Indeed, "
the patient can weather his seizure up to
the crisis--that It, If a crisis is his lucky
lot--then he will in all probability come
through a winner. provided he has not
squandcrcd his substance in wrong living

1t isn't the damage to the lung that
makes the pneumonia patient so desper-
ately i'll. We know that. because the lung

Most men know love but as Il part of life :
They hide it In some corner of the breast.

And hold it up to sister, child or wife

Why walk we thus alone. when by our

Seem like a golden courtway Of the sun

New York. Nov. 10.-Bradstreet' s
tomorrow will say:
While naturally responding to and
sharing in the political excitement
ruling this week, trade and industry
display no real check to the long
continued, steady surge forward in
demand. Interest in the election re-
turns themselves and uncertainty as
to results. rather than doubt as to
policies adopted or rejected, acted as
deterrents to activity in some lines
but the great majority OF reports fail
to record any tangible effect upon
trade, which has held steadily large
at most centers. and even increased
at some northwestern and southern
