HIS season Madame decided that
she would add fur wraps to her
1 stock. as so many. of our customers
wanted her ideas as to their furs- OF
course, we have always carried small
fur pieces, as they are used so much
with evening and other wraps.
AS we looked at some of the new
models that Madame had just selected I
exclaimed:
'-Oh. what a striking wrapi' as the
mannequin appeared in the model that
is pictured.
YES answered Madame, 'it is a bit
cut of the ordinary. But if we are to
appeal to our trade we must have some
thing that won't be worn by every one
you see
That's So" I responded.
What do you think Of the fur?" ques-
toned Madame
''At first, thought it seemed rather
peculiar. for its rough brown color did
not particularly impress me. but 1 feel
it will at least have the appeal OF
novelty"
"Of course. caracuI is very different
from seal or ern1ine, but you must re-
member this season that the most fash
shaggy appearance. CaracuI has this
appearance. although it is exceptionally
soft to the touch,' replied Madame.
Yes" I asseated. although I must
confess to liking for the smooth peIts.' -
We'll. for my part, I'm rather glad
that we shall have some novelties" an
swered Madame 'Of course, although
furs Of rough appearance will be very

Il suppose women who already have
presentable fur wraps will still wear
them" 1 smiled, ''and then there are
always many women who hesitate to
adopt extreme dictates Of fashion,"
It think the lines OF this wrap are at
tractive," remarked Madame, as the
mannequin swung herself about to re-
veal the egg-shaped outlines Of the cape.

Yes, ribbons tied at the back OF the

I questioned.

Il would advocate ermine." answered
Madame.
How sumptuous that would be-" I
exclaimed.
Yes, and to add TO Its richness I
would divide the wrap into several pan

could see. was already visionlng such
a creation.
Would you hnish It with the black
ribbons at the neck?" asked
mo, on such a model would do a

'Tf you wished to introduce another

Unfortunately. some OF the common
diseases of childhood remain as mysteri-
Gus as ever. After a while their causes
will be discovered and means of pre-
vention found. 1t Is not long ago that
means of treating diphtheria was
given humanity. Now, something equal
ly wonderful has been determined. 1
refer to what is known as the ''Schick
test
BY this test 1t Is possible to determine
who are susceptible to diphtheria. Not
every one can take diphtheria. For
tunately, many persons are naturally
immune to this terrible disease. Only
about 20 per cent. of persons past 20
years OF age are in danger of diphtheria.
As a matter of fact, not over 30 per cent.
Of persons past hvs years are suscept-
ible to It. OF course, a much smaller
percentage of persons actually have 1t.
but between the ages of six months and
three years, almost three-quarters OF
the children will contract diphtheria If
exposed
Since there is a means Of vaccinating
against diphtheria and thus protecting
the child 1t is important to find out
whether he needs protection or whether
he comes in the % to 30 per cent. group
