THE EVER POPULAR BLOUSE
The return OF the Tailleur
and the Three-Piece Suit,
Give Bfouses New Life.
BY MARIE AIAROT

AYOW that Fashion has de-
creed the undoubted re-
turn Of the tailleur and
the three-piece suit, the blouse
takes on . new Importance in
the realm Of whats Worn"
They have never been so di-
versified, as TO style and ma
terial as they are at present
From the gaudy metallic cloth
blouse to the plebian brosdcloth,
they flaunt their popularity for
all to see. No wardrobe Is COM
plete without several. There
are styles for sport, styles for
dress, styles for every occasion.
With one skirt and several
blouses, one has costumes to
meet all occasions.
The sleeveless blouse Is per-
haps, most popular for sports.
Shown here, it Is of white broad
cloth with tie, armhole edgings
and collar ends of printed broad
cloth in green, orange, and
light and dark blue.
In the upper left Is a blouse
suitable for afternoon wear of
peach beige crepe de chine. This
is made on the new tuck-in
style, and with its revers which
tie in the front to emulate a
collar, is perfectly stunning.
Lower left is shown a blouse
OF silk pique. One of its chief
features are the overlapping
neck bands, terminating in a
soft jabot with a knife pleated
ruffle. The knife pleating il
also used in novel fashion on
the blouse proper. Note the
cunning way the deep-cuffs are
topped with the tiny ~ruffles.
This blouse has the tightly fit
ted hipband now so popular.
At the lower right is q printed
silk blouse in surplice style.
Plain, yet smart, it depends for
its chic on the smart tassel and
ring arrangement which
achieve a shirred effect at the
waistline.

cases of running nose and sore throat come from
breathing dust and smoke. "A long automobile
trip through the country or a visit to a mill,
may produce so much irritation that the eyes
and nose run and the throat feels as If il had
been sandpapered.
People differ materially in the way irritating
vapors and dust affect them Some persons
appear to have such hardened tissues that they
are not affected. On the contrary, others are
so susceptible to mechanical irritation that even
prove disturbing.
No matter how you live you come in contact
