Whooping cough is the mean
est" disease that childhood is
heir to. While rarely fatal in
itself, except to children under
two years of age, still it hangs on
so long-the coughing paroxysms
are so violent. preventing proper
sleep and digcstion-that when
the disease docs disappear it
leaves the child weakened and
run down. In addition the
violent coughing racks and strains
the air passages and after re-
covery this irritation frequently
remains.
During this period of conval-
cscence the child should be most
carefully watched until full
strength is restored and the air
passages regain their normal tone.
A prominent authority even goes
so far as to say--"Therc is more
criminal neglect in connection
with whooping cough than with
any other disease"
While the disease is active,
Vick's NapoRub usually helps to
lessen the violence of the cough

. csccnce that Nicks is most val
liable.

Afternoon Frook OF Tatfeta and Lace.

effective. The rather narrow under

one of lace. lightly wired so it will re-
tain its flare. The basque bodice. I'm

The short sleeves are untrimmed.
Where the waist is closed at the side

or rosette of the taffeta be used to
conceal the closing, If preferred.
This design might be used very eff
fectively for a frock combining Powered
chiffon or silk wolfe with taffeta or satin.
but as lace is so highly regarded this
season the lace and fabric combination
is particularly smart
In some of the dresses featuring the
silhouette shown In today's sketch the
underskirt Is so narrow as to suggest
trousers. Some of them are, In fact,
drawn In harem skirt fashion.
This, as we all know, is a season of
many styles No one silhouette holds
the center OF the stage; no color or
fabric may be said to lead the pro-
cesslon with others far behind.
That there Is generous leeway in the
matter of styles is a very fortunate
thing indeed because it enables a
woman to remodel n last season gar
ment very much according to the limi-
tations of her available materials. with
out being compelled to feel that the
dress is merely n makeshift. With
good taste, persistence, a knowledge of
fabrics and of color and color combina-
tions, any woman may be well dressed
this season at comparatively small
cost, regardless OF the fact that all
prices are higher than ever beforehand
stll soaring
Fabric combinations are very popu-
lar. and. in the development of street
and sports frocks some of the best ue-
signers are showing smart frocks that
have skirt of one fabric and boulce
or coate OF another. This style is adj
mirabe when Temodelled last sea-
son dress is being considered.
