Your Health
THE FIRST CONCERN.
—Pneumonia, an inflammation of
the lungs, usually starts with a
chill, followed by high fever, a
sense of heaviness in the chest, and
a hacking cough. A special serum
is now being used for the treat-
ment of this disease with some
success, Careful nursing is more
important in the recovery from
pneumonia than in almost any
other disease. The patient should
be put to bed immediately and
should stay there until fully re-
covered. He must not get up to
go to the bathroom’ or for any
other purpose.
a great strain
Pneumonia places
on the heart and
lungs. Even slight exertion may
cause death. Be sure not to get
out of bed until the doctor tells
you it is safe. Do not go back to
work too soon. Do not take aspirin |°
or cough medicine without the doc-
tor’'s orders. The doctor's instruc-
tions as to the disposal of the
patient’s nose and throat discharges
should be carefully followed. Un-
less home conditions are unusually
favorable, a hospital is the best
place for a pneumonia patient. Not
only can the hospital furnish the
constant care the patient needs,
but it can also keep him from
giving the disease to others.
Neglected colds, especially those
located in the bronchial tubes, may
be followed by pneumonia. This is
because the cold weakens the tis-
Sues, so that they more easily be-

Pneumonia may also be brought on
by irritation from gases, dust and
chemical fumes, severe injuries, op-
erations performed with ether or
chloroform, overwork, lack of sleep
and exercise, exposure to cold and
wet.

FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.
Daily Thought.
Sin has many tools, but a lie is a han-
dle that fits them all.—Autocrat of the
Breakfast Table. 3
—The evening silhouette shows
skirts long all around and sloping
off to a wide flare quite in the Span-
ish manner. Most models, both day
and evening, are belted at the nat-
ural waistline. This establishment
was the first to show the cape dur-
ing the Autumn collections, and
again include a quantity of capes
both long and short; also shoulder
capelets in their latest display. A
much admired pyjama ensemble is of
cerese velvet with dark brown fur
edging the short jacket, and around
the ankle on tightly cuffed pyjama
trousers.
—Paris has evolved a new linen
for millinery. Ordinary dress linen
was used in the first of the fabric
hats in the Paris collection, but real-
izing its deficiencies a new weave
exactly resembling dress linen but
‘with the body of a straw and linen
combination has appeared. This has
stiffness enough for the little brim-
med hat, as well as for the draped
toque.
Starching the linen desired for tne
brim is another Paris experiment;
tailor’s canvas, which in itself is
quite stiff, is used in its natural col-
or for the brimmed resort hat, its
«dull ecru tone relieved with colored
embroidery or insets of narrow gay
ribbons.
Shantung sports hats accompany
the Shantung frock or Shantung
serves as facing on the brimmed
straw hats, vying for popularity with
‘the polka-dotted materials which are
smart at the moment. This interest
in the polka-dot received its first im-
petus with the arrival of Rodier’s
tuslikasha, with a small white polka-
«dot woven tarough it. This material
is being used either as a complete
facing or merely as a band on the
under side of the hat, in which case
it is repeated as a facing for the
trimmings, and is so effective in
these ways that it has brought forth
all sorts of other uses for polka-
dots. Felt is painted in tiny dots,
vibbons are dotted and even the lit-
tle feather bits have their dots.
Felt and Shantung are a new com-
bination adopted by Agnes, who
makes charming little bonnet-shaped
hats of alternate folds of the two
fabrics, finished with a bow of felt
at the side back, A wide-brimmed
hat of natural baku has part of the
crown made of black felt, and ‘where
the two fabrics join is a stitched band
of vivid green Shantung. Straw and
belting ribbons, satin and grosgrain,
and satin and felt join forces in
many of the tiny hats and berets
for early Spring.
—As always happens when ° blue
leads, a great variety of gray tones
will follow, but there will be no real
neutrals. Grays will be “fair but
false,” being colored with livelier
tones. Smoke gray and amethyst
gray, toned with violet, will be pop-
ular for all times of day, as will sul-
phur gray, toned with yellow; grape
gray, shaded with green; smoky to-
paz, clouded with orange; stone
gray, chilled with blue, and agate
gray, warmed with red. The peren-
nial beiges will be grayed down to
softer tones.
White for Summer follows black
for Winter as naturally as dawn fol-
lows darkness. Pure white will be
rare. Off-whites, oyster ivory, green-
ish, pinkish and, more rarely, blush
whites—are easier to wear; and un-
less you are a dazzling blonde you
will naturally tone up your costume
with a scarf, a flower, some frivolous
accessory of the color that tempers
your whiteness. Black contrasted
with white is always effective and
this year promises to have a sudden,
single black flower or a black sash
smartly accenting the all-white frock.
Two-color costumes, it is predicted,
will be smarter than those of a sin-
gle tone, especially black and white,
pink and black, ecru, sand or beige
and black.
—Neckwear, which has come and
gone with the fluctuating fashions,
is very much in evidence this year.
It is one of the fine points in the
distinctively feminine styles, so long
in eclipse, while dresses were finish-
ed with a severely tailored line at
the neck and wrists. That style has
partially given way to the engaging
and always youthful manner of
dressing the neck and sleeves with
crisp linen or some soft lace or
mousseline—which are equally flat-
tering to a girl of sixteen or a woman
of sixty. Modistes say that a set of
white collar and cuffs will take years
off the age of any frock and of the
woman who wears it as well.
Three years ago it was difficult to
find a lace collar in Paris. They
were not worn, it was said, except
by brides and dowagers, Now some
of the latest daytime dresses from
the other side, formal and informal,
have collars, and sometimes cuffs
also, of lace or fabric. Maggie Rouff
is making some delightfully original
frocks finished at the neck with soft
mousseline, linen and lace.
Dresses for the young women and
misses this season appear to have
been designed with the particular idea
of adding collar and cuffs, a gilet or
fichu and jabot, and are of the sort
to make a girl of debutante age look
even younger, and altogether chic
and dainty. Every frock for little
girls now has a collar of some ma-
terial that will stand tubbing and
come out fresh and lovely. Some
are ornamented with needlework, in
white or colors, supplying a decora-
tive note in the costume, and others
are of linen, voile, batiste or or-
gandie.
Frocks for juniors and misses are
shown with detachable collars and
cuffs of which there may be several
changes for each dress. These are
made nf white, off-white or ecru lin-
en, and of plain organdie.

FARM NOTES.
—Feed nothing that will sour or
: spoil quickly.
— The poultry yard sheltering a lot
of “back-number” roosters is not go-
ing to bring profit to the owner.
— Don’t begrudge the mature birds
a few days’ rest—feed them all they
will eat and they will soon be back
on the job again.
Water is also an essential, and,
although hens drink little in cold
days, such inclinations as they may
have for the liquid should be satis-
fied. The egg is about 75 per cent.
water.
——The chicken house should not be
shut up without a particle of ventila-
tion simply because the weather is
cold. Pure air without drafts is nec-
essary and this is the chief reason
for the success of the muslin cur-
tains, Houses that are kept closed
up perfectly tight soon become
stuffy and damp.
It is generally considered unwise
to closely confine turkeys for any
length of time; hence, the crate feed-
ing method practiced in finishing
chickens is not employed with tur-
keys, However, it is considered ad-
visable to somewhat restrict range
during the finishing period. An
empty barn, shed or similar shelter
with a limited yard range can serve
admirably for finishing quarters if in
proper sanitary condition.
There are several reasons for
the loss of feathers on the head and
neck of a fowl, but it it usually due
to the fowls themselves in scratching
and breaking the feathers off with
their claws. This is apparently caus-
ed by a mite, thought to be the same
as that causing scaly leg, and which
gets under the skin, causing irrita-
tion. Application of carbolated
grease into which has been worked
a little sulphur will be found helpful
for this trouble.
—Plants of the cool season Crops,
such as cabbage, lettuce, and cauli-
flower, may be started now in a
greenhouse or hotbed. In the day
time a temperature of 65 degrees F.
is best while at night it may drop
to 45 degrees. The plants should be
hardened to withstand light freez-
ing, say State College specialists.
—Wall bracket lights are largely
decorative as they furnish little light
out in the room. The best place for
them in a bathroom is on both sides
of the mirror, placed 66 inches from
the floor.
—Have you ordered the trees,
shrubs, vines, and perennials needed
for landscaping the home grounds
this spring? If ordered early, they
can be shipped later by the nursery-
man just when you are ready to take
care of them.
— Insects and diseases cost the
producer of fruits and vegetables a
big bill each year by reducing the
size of crops, lowering quality, and
increasing the cost of production and
preparation for market. Educational
efforts aimed at the control of pests
helps both the farmer and the con-
sumer.
Six clean practices are advocat-
ed by poultry specialists of State
College for the growing of healthy
birds. These are clean chicks, clean
houses, clean litter, clean feed, clean
management and clean grounds. All
are possible and profitable.
— Besides having at least one
electric light in every room, con-
nected to a switch at the door, it
is suggested that numerous double,
interchangeable outlet receptacles be
provided. More outlets around the
baseboards and less fixtures are
rapidly coming into use for lamps
and also for candlesticks on buffets,
mantlepieces, tables, and bureaus.
—Almost all the trees grown by
the State have been allotted for
distribution this spring. As usual,
the late applicants will have to
take what is left. Scotch pine,
white pine, pitch pine, and Japanese
larch are still available but going
fast.
—For best results do not start
to save eggs for hatching purposes
for the first ten days or two weeks
after the male birds have been al-
lowed to run with the breeders.
—Good rotations increase crop
yields, reduce production expenses,
and provide a better and more
profitable diversity. Spring is the
time to put them into effect.
— Pennsylvania farmers are cut-
ting weed trees out of their wood-
lands more than ever, according to
forestry extension specialists of the
Pennsylvania State College. Many
plan to work over their entire
woods in ten years and get a
steady winter income while doing
it.
— Outlook figures released by
federal agricultural officials indicate
that farmers in the United States
intended to plant 3,570,000 acres of
potatoes this year compared to 38,-
370,000 acres harvested last year.
Yields in line with the trend of
recent years will provide a crop too
large for consumption needs and,
therefore, profitable production.
—Cabbage and other cool weath-
er plants may be started in hot-
beds this month.
other warm weather plants can be
started in greenhouses this
and in hotbeds in April
—Millions of dollars lost annually
because of sour and off-flavored
milk might be saved through good
management, sanitation, and re-
frigeration.

off,” said the clerk as he tore an-
other sheet off the calendar.
