quarters. Visitors are still shown the
rooms in the Kurhaus in which "his

bath" in which Hindenburg underwent
radium brine bath cure.
After the war the French occupied
the town. They located their head
quarters and officers mess right across
the street from the Kurhaus. so that
nag and the French uniforms. Thus.
though the armies Of occupation adj
versely affected the attendance at all
spas within the occupied area, this was
particularly true of Bad Kreuznach,
where the presence Of French troops
was unusually conspicuous.
"Kreuznach will feel as though It
were taking a new lease Of hfe," Mai.
Richard Prausnitzer. director Of the
Kreuznach spa. said. There is no
doubt that the foreign occupation
has hurt us more than any other water
ing place in the Rhineland. Not only
Germans, but also many Americans and
Russians who used to come here. did
not like to be in a place In which
military commanders could issue or

FOOLISHNESS

A lot of things the people do are
vain and foolish in my sight; my neigh
bors' errors make me blue when con-
slider them by night. Bill johnson
makes me stand aghaSt, his conduct
often puzzles me: he goes on walking
trips that last sometimes two weeks,
and sometimes three. He puts a KNAPP
sack on his back. and dons his heavy
walking shoes, and tolls along the lonely
track that only goats and shepherds
use. He has the price and he might
ride in comfort in his limousine. or in
his private airship glide above this NOV
through fens and boys, and by the tarns
and meres remote. and he is chased
by farmers dogs, which bite large pieces
from his coat. Is any voter strictly
sane who walks when he might ride in
state? Is there no blemish in his brain
has he his intellect on straight?
sometimes think ought to speak and
tell him what his neighbors think, that
they consider him a freak whose fac
ulties are on the blink. But we'll
know what he would say if approach
ed him in this guise: he would remark:
you sit all day and get no wholesome
exercise. I'd surely feel myself dis
graced If should see my weight in
crease, if I had such a bullying waist
my contour lost in useless grease. You
tell me that I have no sense because
I walk. who we'll might ride; you'd
think your paunch is an offenSe II you
had any decent pride" And If he talked
to me like this. do not know what I
would say. and so I throw old Bill

Clocks for Stockings Revived
By MARY MARSHALL.

some women follow the fashion Of wear
ing shoes of the simplest, letting the
stockings carry the trimming, which
may be an elaborate clock in lace eff
feet or one embroidered with rhine
stones.
The roll of the clock is not only to
add q decorative note. but to give an
increased effect of slenderness to the
ankle. The simpler and straighter the
clock the greater the effect of slender
ness, fact that should be remembered
by women whose ankles are not so
shapely as they would have them
Clocks that show a definite tendency
to broaden toward the foot increase the
effect of Shapeliness to the foot and
ankle. Clocks worked in rhinestoneS or
otherwise made striking should be
avoided by the woman whose ankles
are badly proportioned, for the simple
reason that they draw attention, when
with the new longer evening skirts the
ankles may be hidden completely.
This weeks illustrated circular shows
how to make a charming nightgown
that would be just the thing for
Christmas gift. If you would like
copy, please send your stamped, self
addressed envelope to Mary Marshall,
