Tight Collars.
ARE DANGEROUS, SAYS A WOMAN DOCTOR.
Never wear a tight collar or any- thing tight round the neck-this was the advice given by Dr. Octavia Lewin, lecturing on nasal hygiene at the conference of Henkh Visitors and School Nurses, which was resumed at King's College, Strand, London, recently. I was talking to a highly intelli- gent man the other day, she said, and I congratulated him on the size of his collar. He was very pleased, because he had suffered from the jeering of his colleagues because of the size of his collars. I told him he would not be in the position he was if he wore a tight -collar, and that one did not find the groat people in the land wear- ing tight collars. Then he told me his aim was to wear a collar which was large enough for him to get his chin in.
