Should Nightcsps Be Worn?

The nightcap is not a part of the
standard sleeping equipment of the
modern man and woman, especially
those of the years on the under side of
so. Yet this very bit of slumber stuff
should be universally worn right to-
day if the human race would be absc-
lutely free of cold, according to
Paris physician, DIR. Louis st. Mau-
rice. The doctor is quoted in an arti-
Gle by Henry Wales in the Chicago
Tribune a. of the opinion that uncov
cred craniums while sleeping at night
are the cause of colds; yes, even in
fusnza. The physician points out the
fact that years ago, when people all
wore night caps, few colds appeared,
there was no such thing as grip, and
influenza was unheard of. Eighteenth
century literature does not contain
mention of these diseases.
"On the other hand" the doctor is
quoted as saying, cart and literature in
the past, well up into the 18th century,
show that everyone, rich and poor,
young and old, men and women, all
wore night caps. The linen or cotton
headgear for bed was just as common
as the night gown.
Toward the end Of the 18th cen
fury the night cap began to fall in dis
use, and in less than 100 years it has
virtually disappeared. To-day it is un-
heard of in France, in your United
States, in England, in Italy, in Ger
many-it is worn nowhere.
"But. on the other hand, the need Of
protection for the head during the
light has increased during the last cen
fury. The average brain is larger, but
not the head. A mans cranium-or
woman's. for that materials not
changed in average size for more than
