HAVE you been following Op-
penheim, Collins & Company's
advertising this week? Most
OF US have gotten into the habit of
watching for their ads when we hap
pen to be thinking of buying a suit
or coat or blouse, for their clothes
not only have good lines, but they
are most reasonably priced, taking
quality into consideration. ANY one
VINO consistently reads the advertis-
ing OF this store finds it possible to
make a great saving on her ward
robe, and the woman of limited in
come finds it quite an easy matter
to appear well-dressed with the ex-
penditure Of comparatively small
sum OF money. You will find the
store of Oppenheim, Collins & Com
pany, Chestnut and Twelfth Streets,
a most satisfactory shop in which

GONE time ago a friend of mine
IL purchased a talking machine of
certain well-advertised make.
Just a few days ago she told me
that she was disappointed in the
way. certain records sounded on the
machine. We had an interesting
chat on the merits of various talking
machines. mentioned the Per-
fektone with its patent Cushion
repreoducer," though I plainly ad-
vised my friend, as l do every one
else, not to purchase any machine
unless it has all the qualities which
it claims. Finally we decided to
take this record to the salesrooms
OF the Perfek'tone Corporation, 1928
Chestnut Street, to see how it would
sound on their phonograph. The
Improvement was noticeable at once.
/ advise my readers to try their
noisy records or the Perfek'tone.
TT YOU would make the memory
Of Christmas lasting one why
- not give ring? Since l saw the
exquisite rings at Van Dusen &
Stokes, 1923 Chestnut Street, am
more than ever in favor of such
gift. learned several things about
diamond rings during my visit.
One is that the newest way of set
ting diamonds is in four broad pla-
tinum points. This. emphasizes the
outline Of the diamond. Another
is that If your ring has the domed
setting you can pull your glove
over it more easily. Van Dusen &
Stokes use the Wesselton. clear
blue-white stone, in their rings. OF
the dinner rings, I liked particularly
an aquamarine, surrounded by dia-
monds They have a very fine col
lection Of rings for men. among
them a star sapphire which is odd
and unusual.
ToDAY. at the store of A. G..
Spalding & Bros, 1910 Chest
nut Street, saw tam and
scarf of the most delightful rose
color. Angora it was, and lined with
black taffeta. Can't you just imag-
inc how it would brighten up a sports
costume? Sometimes I think we
are inclined to wear too many dull
colors in the winter time, and bit
Of rose or some other bright color
gives just the touch needed. There
are some tweed scarfs, too, in the
loveliest colorss One I liked par
ticularly was plaid in which nile
green, light blue and rose We're most
effectively combined. The camel's-
hair scarfs are very smart looking,
too. Have you seen the new fan
mel shirts? They are very trim and
just right for golf wear and they
wash very well, too.

SEE "PLUM" FOR !TUMULTY
Politicians Hear Wilson Has $1o,.
900 Judgeshlp for Him

New York, Nov. 12.-President Will
son has picked out job for Joseph p.
Tumulty, his secretary, according to
trustworthy information that reached
Democratic politicians in this city. It
is that of chief judge of the United
States Court Of Customs Appeals, the
appointment being for life Mt an annual
salary of $4,000. The court sits in
Washington. That may explain the
purchase by Mr.. Tumulty the other day
Of the old Sheppard mansion in the
national capital.
The chief judgeship of the court Is
vacant, due to the death during the year
of Judge Robert NJ. Montgomery. It
is said the President has from the first
had in mind naming his secretary to
that post. -
The Court Of Customs Appeals deals
entirely with matters of law. largely
being appeals from classifications in
the customs service. treaty and constitu- :
tional matters and other cases, which
the attorney general may certify to be
of sufficient Importance to be considered
BY It. Classifcations are made first by
the collector. An appeal may be made
from him to the general board of ap-
prnisers, from that to the Court Of Gus
toms Appeals and then to the United
States Supreme Court by certiorari.

OF those who know him that he will be

Old Bosses Discredited
The Democratic party in the latter
months of the campaign swung back
toward him. The state. bosses who put
Cox in nomination failed and are dis =
credited. Their lonely meeting at
French Lick, Ind, where even Cox and
Taggart failed to greet them. and while
the Cox men were comforting with the
McAdoo men and the Wilson men in
Washington over the future of the
party, shows their decline. The reor
