~ AGGEDY ANN! Isn't that
perfect name for rag doll?
She has shoe button eyes, yarn
hair, painted nose, smiling mouth,
and such funny, old-fashioned clothes.
Just the kind of dollie that little
maids fall in love with, particularly
when they have the "Raggedy Ann
Stories,' telling all about her pranks
and adventures with other dolls,
many of which are also in the Toy
Department Of B. F. Devices, 1922
Chestnut Street. The indestructible
character dclls- sailors, soldiers, Red
Cross nurses, ETC., come in all sizes,
and Art dolls with unbreakable heads
that have really intelligent faces,
though they look ready to burst with
fat. For infants there are cunning
rubber-headed dolls covered with
stockinette, or rag dolls with painted
faces. and goosy sanders, elephants,
rabbits and whole families of Teddy
bears.
r Asst winter, with so many Sc
rious matters on hand, it was
- considered bad form and unpa-
triotic to indulge in social festivities,
but this season bids fair to being
gayer, especially after the men re-
turn from Camp. Cards are already
out for number of Victory Dances
and Peace Parties, and as uniforms
are being packed away conventional
evening clothes will once more reign
supreme. At Macdonald & Camp
bell, 1334-36 Chestnut Street, they
are fully prepared to meet this new
situation, and have all the apparel
necessary. for men to wear on either
formal or informal occasions Their
full dress suits and TuXedos are cut
on the most correct lines, and white
dress waistcoats, shirts, ties, half
hose and gloves are among<the nu-
merous accessories they sell for the
well-tuned-out man.
TEW women are strangers to
u pretty silk underwear, but all
n have not made the acquaintance
of that department at George Aliens,
1914 Chestnut Street. Presided over
by competent woman, it is with
feeling of absolute security that one
defers to her judgment. When she
says they have splendid assortment
of Kayser Glove Silk UndeSwear, in
flesh and white, selling at last years
prices, | believe her-and then take
look, discovering besides: silk
boomers in brown, purple, blue and
emerald, to replace petticoats; lace
trimmed silk underwaists, with short
kimoro sleeves, for those who find
camisoles too diaphanous under sheer
.ihirtwaists; and a special line OF
shirts and union suits, the lower part
of the finest mercerized yarn, the
upper of glove silk, thus combining
) Derfect fit with dainty appearance
.. CELDOM does one connect oranges
with any distinct time of the
~ year; like the poor, they seem
to be always with US, but until winter
approaches they are not at their best
Perhaps this is Natures way of com.
,ensating us. AS the golden days OF
summer are withdrawn, the COLDER
fruit take their place. At Henry r
Hallowell & Sons, Broad below
Chestnut Street, the famous Indian
River oranges, from Florida, are now
being sold. Running in three sizes,
thin-skinned, juicy, luscious and tree
ripened, they are superior to any IN
the world, and fortunately plentiful
supply is expected, which ill make
them cheaper than last year. Grape
fruits also are much in evidence; sc
big. Juicy and meaty that half is
almost, but not quite, too much for
one person. -

So wrote Hood, who, with poets
vision, foresf.w the comfort and lux
urv of the "faultless" box springs
and hair mattresses made by the H
d. Dougherty Co., 1892 Chestnut
Street. To call these faultless is nc
emnty boast. for only the finest work
manship and the best real horse ran
enter into their composition. IT
these days when even the queues OF
frugal Cinnamon, mixed with hoGe
and goat hair, are being palmed OIL
for the genuine article, it is reassur
ing to know that these are as repre-
sented and that the DoughertS
Co.. specialists, in bedding of years
standing, - own and operate what Il
probably the largest, best-appointe6
and most sanitary bedding factory ir
this section of the country.
A Ii through the anxious months
n of war one small consolation
IA was given the families of the
men "oyer there"; they alone had the
privilege of wearing Service Stars
and on the breast or finger of wives
mothers and sweethearts it's CLEAN
was constant ,eminder that wher
humanity cried for defenders theii
nearest and dearest sprang to the
rescue. No greater and more endur,
ing dignity was ever devised, and al
Bailey, Banks & Biddle Co. there is
an exquisite assortment for those
who have SO far failed TO honor theil
living or fallen brave. Rings OF
sparkling diamonds and rubies, bear

gold, in memory Of the one who made
the suyremc sacrifice, and bracelets
