J Public Forum A Skin Clear and Flesh Firm With Yeast Vitamon friezes may prove profitable, for andonbtedly most of the present Hay designs originated in them. T» if» for example, the neo-clas­ sicism o f the First Empire, as re­ flected in the upper sketch. This is simply made of green lacquered leaves, suggestive of a laurel wreath, and embroidered with rhinestones. To wear this suc­ cessfully, the hair should be tight­ ly drawn from the forehead, and loosely knotted on top. Then, too, there are exquisite garlands o f flowers that may be ef­ fectively woven in and out of the hair, or daintily placed about the forehead. The best time for these is when it is possible to weave long garlands of flowers into the costume itself. Headdresses of thin sort naturally call into being more elaborate waves, as illustrat­ ed by Agnes Ayres, starring in the Paramount picture, “The Lone T hat Had No Turning,” by Sir Gilbert Parker. If simplicity is more desired, two pin-wheel hair­ pins of je t may be more p refer­ able. F o r the bobbed-haired girl an adorable arrangem ent may be fashioned from pearls. These are made into long stream ers, which fall almost to the waist from a fillet of tiny mauve pink roses, m eeting in the center in a large, old-fashioned pearl ornament. Bracelets monopolize almost as im portant a place as the head­ dresses, and many beautiful de­ signs have been the result. F o r instance, one of the novelties is found in beautifully cut black beads, hung on a chain of plati­ num, and completed with two very large beads a t the end. A nother fancy, equally attractive, is the jade bracelet with rhinestone or diamond clasp.

Three years ago the w a r cloeed. Almost every great commercial nation of the world save the U nited States has put up the ta riff barriers against this deluge of cheap foreign goods. Octo­ ber 1st free trade England raised her duties 33% per cent on six thousand articles. Previously she provided spe­ cial duty against German goods of 60 per cent, and a depreciated curren­ c y provision of 76 per cent. •Italy long since enacted a currency depreciation measure of 67% per cent. Prance had put up her harriers more than 60 per cent, and Canada long since followed these examples. We alone are the tard y nation. “T h e question now w hether the im ­ port duties levied by the United States shall be calculated upon foreign or American valuation basis is perhaps the most im portant Import ta riff issue seriously considered by the Congress since 1833. T h e existing foreign valuation sys­ tem is w ithout doubt the weakest ever enacted. Thereunder, ordinarily to introduce foreign merchandise into the commerce of the United States, in competition w ith American produc­ tions, no single oath by the foreigner is required as to th e ir value, or is otherwise made necessary. “Indeed, no oath whatsoever Is re ­ quired save upon the declaration ac­ companying entry a t the custom boose, which la the presently adopted 1« w ithout force or effect.

Under our existing system , every appraiser throughout the United States is presumed every morning th a t he goes to his office to have knowledge of the m arket value of every imported article in every country of the United States export­ ing hereto. “No appraising officer in the United States is supplied by any efficient means of acquiring or of being sup­ plied w ith this information. He has before him invoices only which in d i­ cate, if anything, export value alone in the country of exportation. This throws but little if any light upon w hat he is required to know, to w it, home m arket value In the country of exportation, “ I t is oqe of the remarkable things of our customs system that this ano­ malous situation has been kept in the law for more than 130 years. H • •/ much easier it would be for a p p ra . ing officers to inform themselv.- to be informed of the value in T. • United States rather than the I t r more values throughout the woiiy. The existing system presupposes su­ perhuman appraisers.” “Thank You” This acknowledgment of a courtesy or service is somehow the satisfactory end of a transaction. Both parties are pleased and the relations of the moment, however unimportant, are more hap­ pily closed. There is no occasion when an effort made for the comfort or convenience of others is not worth a ‘ thank you.’ In the daily routine of telephone operations, where the saving of time is the great considera­ tion, the opportunity of expressing an apprecia­ tion of a service rendered seldom arises. But remember that the telephone operator is human. Courtesy to her means more cheerful­ ness in her work. It will be reflected in your own self-satisfaction.
