ease. How Can it Start
With IA Cold?

This is a reasonable question
aud one that must arise to the
mind of almost everyone when
the claim is made that conSump-
ton starts with a cold. The
cold simply prepares the sys'
tenn for the reception and de-
velopment of germs of that dis
ease, that would not otherwise
have found Judgement. 1t is
the same with diptheria, scarlet
fever and measles. They are
most likely to be contracted
when the child has a cold. That
is why cold should never be
neglected. The longer it hangs
on the greater the danger. AS
a quick cure for colds Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy can al.
ways be relied upon. Its re-
marka BILE cures have won for it
a world wide reputation and an
immense sale. 1t is pleasant
and safe to take. For sale by

white gowns; in fact, they harmonic with the

They are available in tight bursting buds,
half or full-blown flowers,
A particularly graceful corsage bouquet is
featured in the first sketch, its tapering lines
being very pleasing, just enough foliage is in
troduced to give it becoming background.
Modest and unassuming little violets are great
favorites with many women. They are shown to
better advantage in large bouquets than to at.
tempt making a spray of them, with punches at
intervals.
Narrow satin and velvet ribbons in several
shades are strikingly employed for making cor
sage bouquets. Little streamers of gold and sill
yer or violet coored slken tassels are their usual
finish.
Velvet and linen combine to make more real
istic looking violets
GOLD AND SILVER TISSUE

Pink linen roses, outlined by a tiny fringe Of

striking tiara was seen the other night at the
opera, composed of gold laurel leaves outlined on
the under side with tiny French brilliants.
A laurel wreath of green leaves, with lining
of gold or silver which just outlined them, was
seen on the eoifure of middle-aged society

frequently worn by smart women is pink roses
and white gardenas. The interningling OF the
feathery green throws into delicate contrast the
coorng of the flowers.
The design appears in the centre illustration
A bouquet is worn on the corsage then from the
waist on the left the sprays sweep along the
folds of the gown almost to its hem. Several
stitches are necessary at intervals to hold the
spray in place, but care should be taken that
its graceful contour will not be lost
A becoming wreath of pink roses appears on the
hair. Such a spray a white, gray or black
gown, or even pink, would be exquisite. Pink
flowers, too are employed on pale blue toilettes

MORE ORNATE DECORATIONS
For daughter of the gods, divinely tall and
fair, poinsettia in velvet and satin, as is shown
in the second sketch, would be attractive. Scar

skin.
The spray remains unbroken, starting with a
large bloom on the left corsage, extending to the
grdle in diagonal line, and then taperins to the
knee.
Peonies in two shades of pink would be charm

Pansies with their rich colorings are especially
becoming to the clear olive skin of brunettes

Another virtue in favor of the artificial sprays
