Manly Millinery


Low derby hats with a small
feather in the side are put forth as
correct headgear for Migentleman
the coming seasons.
We've never seen a derby hat yet
that didn't have a loW-doWn LOOK,
for as a manly beauty DESTROYER, ii
ranks, in our humble opinion as A
No. l.
Every so often somebody gets
wrought up about the white linen
collar that adorns the masculine
neck. This movement however, has
not so much to command it. A great
deal can be said in behalf of the
high white collar.
For one thing it hides the Adam s
apple which bobs up and down. An
other thing is that we can think of
no suitable substitute.
The roll collar of the sport shirt
somehow became associated with
sissiness jus tas the wrist watch did
1t took the greatest war in the
worlds history to rescue the wrist
watch from complete masculine
scorn,
A shawl effect wouldn't solve the
problem either. Going back to his
torys pages, we find plenty of curly
haired kings deftly decorated with
lace hoppers.
The grand monarch's permanent
nave probably wouldn't be practical
in this age of skip-stop elevators.
But it made an undeniable hit with
the ladies.
All of which leads us to conclude
that men of the present day do not
dress to please the women, but to
please each other.

whooping Cougb-lBy Request)

Whooping cough is transmitted
from one child 10 another Cand to
some adults, by the way) by the
spray from the mouth. The dis
ease is very infectious in the early
stages. when often it has not been
diagn osed and therefore the child
is thought to be merely suffering
with cold It remains so from the
beginning Of the cold until the end
of the whOop. Toys and clothing
unless they have been in the sun, or
washed, may carry the infection
also.
The disease begins like a com
! mon cold, as so many of the chill
dren's diseases do, There will be a
tenacious cough which after a week
or two grows worse and finally ends
in the typical paroxysms which bring
on the "whoop." The younger the
child, the more he suffers during
these proxysms, being less able to
help himself. To babies, whooping
cough is always a serious, often a
fatal disease. 1t has been found that
winter whooping cough may last IN
til a change Of weather.
The complications of vhooping
cough are more serious if possible
than the disease itself.
The doctor in attendance will like
ly give the vaccine. In about half
the cases this has a. decided benefi-
cial result and with the chances
ifty-ffty for improvement, vaccine
