DIED OF EXPOSURE
Pathetic Case of Little Girl Found
Alone on the City Streets. Death
Could Have Been Averted.

A poor little gum vendor was found
dead on the streets of New Orleans,
the other day. 1t was not the chilly
weather that had killed her, but a
protracted cold and cough that had
gone unattended. 1t had so affected
her lungs that pneumonia took hold
and the child died after medical relief
was too late. There are hundreds of
cases like this, even in the wealthiest
families. Too many people laugh at
colds, and then wonder why pneu-
monia, grippe and finally tuberculosis
gain entrance to the system.
Ge-Rar-Dy Lung Balsam has long
been recognized as a preventive for
serious cold weather diseases. It
quickly checks a bad cough, loosens
up a cold, heals and soothes the in
famed membranes. No household
should be without this valuable rem
edy. 1t is especially useful in the
cure of Group and whooping cough.
When the cost of this remedy, only
25c a bottle, is considered, one quickly
realizes the foolishness of being with
out it. All druggists sell Ge-Rar-Dy
Lung Balsam.

Fads and Fashions

By FLORENCE FAIRBANKS

New York, Feb. 22.-There may be
some uncertainty concerning the sill
houette and the cut of gowns which
fashion may decree for the coming
spring and summer seasons, but that
much seems to be quite certain that
tue coming season will be one of bright
coiors and strong contrasts. A fairly
ieooc idea may be obtained by an in
spection of the materials shown by
the importers. In the yellows there
are mandarins, nasturtium, amber,
chaudron and sulphur. Tobacco brown
and pigskin are almost the only mild
shades among the yellows. Labrador
blue promises to be one Of the most
successful of all the new shades. It
deserves to be we'll received. for it
combines beauty with distinction. The
name comes from the mineral Lab
radorite and the color greatly resem-
Die that of lapis lazuli. One Of the
new pinks is called cherry, but has
only a faint kinship to what is called
cerise. 1t is almost a red, Just like
the new color Nell rose" which is
also called Nell pink.
The new materials are so rich in
themselves that little attempt is made
to Introduce any trimming on Spring
suits, and when 1t is employed 1t Ia
used very sparingly. Lingerie collars
and cuffs are particularly attractive
on these rich fabrics. The new EN-.
broideries in silk and wool in the Bull
garian shades are seen occasionally
on the collars, cuffs and revers, but
as the colors are so very bright, they
are used sparingly. A few vestee eff
fects are seen, and they add much tc
the effectiveness of many of the spring
suits. The square collar reaching only
to the shoulder line is favored style
Some suit coats have draped or mar

While the sleeves in suits in many
Instances are made full length, quite ;
number are out with a slight flare a

have a three-quarter length sleeve
which is frequently cut in modified

is still used.
The cutaway coat is seen in man,
varieties, some starting several inche
