If you would be in fashion, bob your hair this way. If you would be well-dressed, wear clothes simply designed as I make them. Paris today sets the correct fashion in women's clothes, for a waiting world, because with French wom- en dressing is a studied art. Their chic is supreme. Through advertising, the genius of Paris is brought to the attention of thousands of American women. In Seattle, a charming lady wears the newest Paris hat. In Texas—a pretty girl chooses fashion’s newest necklace of sparkling crystal. An Iowa newspa- per advertises a copy of a Paris frock at a moderate price within ten weeks of its appearance in the French capital. If you would be well-dressed—choose your clothes thriftily and successfully-—wear them with style and charm, watch what the charming ladies in adver- tisements wear, and read what is written in the magie name of Paris. -0~ Read the advertisements and you will not only read what Paris says, but what the women of America do New Britain Herald CIRCULATION OVER 15,000
