Better Wait a Bit
Before Downing
Black Dress
BY ELEANOR GUM

NEW YORK - Moseying around
~ In the shops isn't much fun.
although many are air conditioned.
But it's an Informative occupation,
especially If you like bargain hunt
ing.
The shops. for some reason too
deep for me to fathom. show their
contempt for seasonable clothes by
marking them down Just about the
time a woman is willing to give
her eye teeth for them. Therefore,
shops have already an early au-
tumn aspect and any day now you
will be seeing Season-rusherS wear
ing fall hats and the new black
satin dresses. which seems . bit
more foresighted than Is necessary.
Not that I've anything against
the black dresses. They are simply
swell. whether decorated with
white or gold or not decorated with
anything so they will be ready to
take whatever C os t u m e jewelry
comes their way. But why not save
them until q little later and con-
tinue to wear the stripes and
checks and horals that were de-
signed for now?
The older women cling loyalty
to their print dress-plain cost en-
semb1eS. while the younger ones
seem to have decided to eliminate
coats and jackets-At least that's
the way 1t is hereabouts. The wo-
man who feels undressed unless
she has on some sort OF coat seems
to be satisfied with q bolero which
has sleeves when the dress hasn't
and hasn't when the dress has.
Incidentally, many coats have
bracelet length sleeves. under
which one glimpses the long dress
sleeve. most dresses having long
sleeves this summer.
Just another reminder that the
shirtwaist dress II having TO put
up q fight for existence, now that
SO many smartly dressed women
are selecting something . bit lesa
uniform. Dresses with square neck
lines, some even With cowl OF
draped necklines, are once more
being seen. It's something to think
about and to watch.

Disease Of Youth

This Is 4 disease Of young per-
sons, but Is not common among
babies, though children OF hve or
six years Of age often suffer from
comparative mild attacks. It Is en-
tirely too common In young people
from twelve to twenty years. OF
late years the disease Is becoming
less frequent. probably because SO
many children are having their
tonsils and adeuoids removed early.
It u q disease that follows focal
infections. The tonSils are the chief
offenders, but diseased teeth and
G,1uns. sinus and middle ear trou.
bles often precede the attack.

This Is Serious

The treatment begins with alb
solute rest in bed till after all
symptoms have disappeared. You
might a. well put that down as
imperative. The local application
Of heat Is advised. with every pre-
caution taken against chilling. A
light diet Of milk. eggs, and fruit
juices Is allowed. avoiding coffee.
To-. and alcohol. Leave out meat.
though enough meat should be al
lowed from time to time to keep
up the strength. Chloroform lini-
ment affords some comfort.
For q number of years. l have
prescribed an ointment containing
one dram Of guaiacol. one half
dram Of menthol. TO one ounce OF
lanolin. This Is applied TO the az
fected Joint freely and covered
with flannel or cotton and oiled
silk. It eases pain and aids recov-
cry.
The salicylates. In the form OF
strontium salicylate. control the
pain and seem TO shorten the
duration Of the attack. Ten grains
