The Pneumonia Month.

March is a typical pneumonia
month and usually gives a high rate
of mortality for the disease. After a
long hard winter, the system loses
much of it's resistance and people
grow careless. When every cold, no
matter how slight, is given prompt
and intelligent attention, there is
much less danger of pneumonia. l..
should be borne in mind that pneu-
monia is a germ disease and breeds
in the throat. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is an expectorant and cleans
out the germ ladened mucus and not
only cures cold but prevents its re-
sulting in pneumonia. It is pleasant
to take. Children take it willingly

Knitted Blouse
and Dress Here

Among the special things that Paris
has provided for summer wear are
beautiful sweaters in artificial silk,
silk and wool and in silk and metal.
From a standpoint of fashion, observes
a correspondent, woman will not accept
the mannish sports sweater. The
smart Parisienne wants something
more dressy and more becoming. with
her the sweater blouse is worn to
take the place of a lingerie or silk
blouse and is not intended to be re-
moved as our sweaters are, conse-
quently 1t is not nearly so much of
real sports garment.
A well known designer IN Paris, who
was at one time premiere in one
of the big dressmakinE shops, has es-
tablished herself as an authoritative
creator of the best and most artistic
in this type Of sweater blouse. She
has placed her models successfully
with prominent drcssmakers who are
receiving a great many orders for
them.
Some Of the best of these models,
just received from Paris, are all of
the knitted blouse type.
We have had knitted blouses and
knitted dresses for some time, but
they, like everything else, are one of
the things which fashion takes up cas-
ually and as casually lays aside, until
some day one of these hitherto careless
ly considered articles of dress sudden
ly becomes a decided craze, often last
Ing much longer than its most Opti-
mistic sponsors hoped for. There is
every indication that the knitted blouse
and the knitted dress and suit will

Vest Blouse In Prominence

The popularity Of the suit, of course,
creates a like demand for blouses.
This is always welcome news to the
blouse makers, who having the vari-
able winds Of fashion so seldom fill
their sails during the last few years,
are on the alert to take advantage of
everything that will stimulate their
business, Consequently they are bend
Ing all their energies toward creating
pleasing models.
The great popularity of the tailored
suit brings into unusual prominence
the vest blouse. All of the smart shops
now are specializing In these, and
among the most chic of the recent
models, is the gilet blouse, the front
of which is developed in soft pearl
gray kid embroidered in blue. 1t has
the back and sleeves of pearl gray
georgette.
In almost every instance the gilet
blouse has the back and sleeves of
"A contrasting material, usually of a
sheerer fabric than that used for the
front. DOube-breasted vest blouses
of the mannish type have fronts of
embroidered linen with sleeves and
back of sheer Organdie.

rroffteering prices charged by the
vengs restaurants are the greatest
-hndicap at present to consumers who
trs forced by economic conditions to
lhonize them. In pre-war times the
ut of meals at restaurants both in
- homo and business districts was
0 reasonable that the carrying of
Iunch boxes was dispensed with by
eaeriD and artisans. The operation
q restaurants either by individuals
er corporations Is now subject to
higher rents and fuel costs than ever
before. but there is a prevailing opin-
hon among consumers that the de-
cline in food cost Is not reflected in
tho prices charged.
The following letter from c. o.
Gardiner. an Evening World reader,
tspeaks for itself:
Il have appreciated during the past
Iyear your various articles regarding.
the high cost of living in relation to
foodstuffs and restaurant prices, and
I enclose herewith for your consid-
Grafton bill of fare of - -.
Kindly observe some Of the very ex-
torionate prices this restaurant
charges, as, for instance. 25c for iced
tea or coffee and an initial cover
charge Of 15c. Thi sis a very excel
hnt restaurant which Is patronized
by women as well as men
tuition, and think they should not be
allowed to charge such prices as they
do without protest"
A bill of fare from the restaurant
complained of includes 1S4 items, and
most OF the prices are from one to
20 per cent higher than the prices
Iiafged by other good restaurants in
/he some downtown district. A few
fcomparisons of the prices charged in
this restaurant with the prices
charged for similar or better quality
OF food in other restaurants may be
of interest. Poached eggs on toast,
fried eggs or shirred eggs cost 60c
which other good restaurants sell at
30c. Broiled ham or bacon, scrambled
eggs with ham, or fried eggs with
ham or bacon are 90c. Equally good
:. or better portions are furnished by
other good restaurants at soc to 35c
!. A portion of asparagus costs 75c
Is no better than is served in
the same district at Csc. A cup OF
mixed or Pekoe tea Is listed at Csc
and special cup of coffee costs 40c
The cost to the restaurant of fresf
eggs is less than &c each, while the
portion OF ham costs not more thar
&c to &c. and a portion of bacon tha
goes with two eggs not more than &c
