TO KISS OK NOT TO KISS.
Physicians say the Psstimeis Dangerous.
Certificates Suggested.
PairdGeiphid Press.

Certificates suggested.
Phirdde,yhia Press.
Next to jumping OF express trains, 60
ing up in balloons and m0nkeying with
buzz saws, kissing seems To be the most
risky and dangerous paStime TO which the
human family is given, il statements Of
well-known physicians are TO be be-
lieved.
a cable dispatch from Berlin states
that physician OF that city declares
that twenty-five different species Of
bacteria find Judgment in the human
mouth, and he wants kissing abandoned.
Those who still persists in the danger
Gus practice, he suggests, should be
muZZled with reSpiratoTS until they see
the error Of their ways and are willing
to reform. He suggests no substitute.
DR.. William II. Grim, when his atten-
tion was called TO the cablegram, said
that kissing D prolific cause OF the
spread of infectious and contagious dis
ease, particularly such as diphtheria,
measles, whOoping-c0ugh, scarlet and
typhoid fevers and consumption. He
produced several ponderoCs volumes in
which the subject was treated, and In
which some cold-blooded statistcian had
figured it up that three and two-tenths
per centum OF certain diseases were
transmitted by the apparently harmless
kiss. DR.. Grim said he didn't expect
that any amount OF argument would
check the habit which has been going
on since the foundation of the world,
but he suggested that it would be well
for those who are much given TO the ex-
ercise TO obtain certificates of health,
which they could show TO each other at
the beginning of each performance. Any
one who could not produce such GER
tifcate should be ruled out OF the game.
DR.. Fannie E. Hopes, who has just
returned from abroad, agreed with the
Berlin physician. She said that the
habit was very dangerous one indeed,
causing the spread OF infectious dis
eases through entire families, and often
through whole neighborhoods. She also
thought the habit was foolish and sense
less, and said she was opposed to it on
principle. She cited several cases
where diphtheria and typhoid fever had
been spread by kissing, and said that
many mothers have instructed their
nurses not TO allow their children TO be
kissed when the nurses have them out
in the streets.

Returning again to Sardou; however,

Now Toilets for Weddings.

Some rather pronounced French color
combinations are noticed among new
toilets prepared for weddings and other
ceremonial occasions. Many OF these
have an extremely stylish and elegant
effect. Each depends upon the skill OF
the dressmaker, in discovering the par
ticular shades of contrasting color that
can be combined to bring out successful
results. Among the superlatlvely ele-
CANT models sent from Paris, are toilets
of mahogany-hued velvet with glimpses
of white and gold brocade, shot with
mink; chestnut-b brown velvet, with revers
Of gold passementerie in Venetian point
patterns, dotted with mock gems; ball
dresses Of ruby velvet. frilled with pale
pink embroidered chiffon, and Havana
velvet, with sleeves and chemisette, a la

Table and Household Decoration.

Separate centre cloths Of linen with
decoration more or less elaborate In 1ne
needle-work and drawn work Is still
well used. The favorite design FOR the
centres used at the ladies' lunch, that
apotheosis Of dantiness in table festl-
vals, is in Dresden work. The Tiny
flower sprays, like those on the china,
scattered careleSSly all over the piece
REQUIRE great skill in manipulation and
execution and faultess taste IN their
color combinations.
These sprays are often copied from
old Dresden bits by ladies clever In
drawing their own designs and in shad-
ing the silks with which the designs are
carried oGt.
Centres of heavy linen are very CT
fectve for dinners when couched with
gold and the background tish-scaled with
white silk. The COUGHING is OF the heavy
japanese wash gold, which has on the
silken background the effect OF gold bro
cade. The hem is simply hemsticthed,
or may be finished with fall OF lack.
Heavy or fine sheer linens, sateens, silk
and boiling cloth are ell used in the CEN
tres, and newer than either OF these Is a
silk ma terial called Email cloth, which
is specially adapted to centre pieces be-
cause it is woven so like huckabuck that
darring is q simple matter. 1t is deco
rated with bold design, either outlined
or couched, favJrte color combination
for which is delicate green and white.
Another popular and pleasing centre
cloth decoration is that copied after the
old French fancies, whore garlands or
sprays of many co!ored flowers are
caught and tied with bows Of ribbon in
delicate blue or green or yellow.

The Wedding Flower.

The towering of the wedding
Flower" at Kew this year, says the
London Garden, is an event OF more
than ordinary interest, both to botonist
and horiculturists. 1t is the giant not
only OF the gentle Iris, but OF the whole
natural order to which it belongs.
II is found wild only in small islands
off the east coast of Australia, thou
sands OF miles distant from the habitat
ton of any other Iris. Whilst all other
Irises may be grown out of doors. or
only with little protection in winter,
this ono is happy only when treated
TO subtropical conditions. Its value in
horticulture is due as much to It's stat
ure and elegance OF folages as to the
size and beauty of its numerous flowers
The flower lasts only one day, but
there are so many of them that the
towering season extends over long
period.
This Iris is known far and wide as the
wedding flower.

The HALEY News Miner says that
Sam Allen struck 9-inch vein of
300-ounce ore yesterday in the Ami
Gus, one of the Parker group of
mines.
The nickel mine owned by H. P.
Manning, and which is located only
short distance from town, promises
to develop into very good piece Of
property. The ore taken out of it
assays from 8 to 1T ounces in silver
and 2 per cent. nickel. The develop
ment work which has been done on it
consists Of 35-foot tunnel with
20-foot cross-cut, and there is a
7-foot schultz of ore. Mr.. Manning
is daily expecting a party Of Helena
capitalists here to look at the mine
with view to purchasing the
same. Hope Prospector
John Mcmahon, owner of the Nam
moth mine on Boulder creek, was in
town Saturday. Mr.. Leech, Mr..
Seely and other experts have pro-
nounced the ores Of this ledge to be
superior concentrating ores. The
ledge is located in district where
wood and water are abundant and,
as the vein is from twenty to seventy
feet wide and can be traced for q mile
and half on the surface, it presents
a concentration proposition which has
few equals anywhere. 1t is on the
market and worthy the attention of
capitalists. The ores are similar to
those of Flint, only that they carry

Statesman.
F. A. Fem, speaker Of the house
of representatives Of this state, and
having charge of the selection Of lands
ceded by congress, has just returned
from a prolonged visit to North
Idaho where he has been engaged in
the fulfillment of his duties. He says
that the lands in the north are much
more available for immediate returns
than those in Southern Idaho. This
Is from the fsct that no irrigation is
needed in that section. The con-
stitutlon limits the amount of school
lands that can be sold in any one year
to twenty-five, sections and its
minimum price at ten dollars per acre.
He feels confdeet that instead of
twenty-five fifty sections could be
sold at the minimum price fixed by
the constitution and that at least
twenty dollars per acre could be
realized therefor. The law requires
the boards Of county commissioners
to make appraisements. AS soon as
this shall be done at the October
sessions the sales will begin. The
school fund will realize not less than
twenty dollars per acre on 16, 900
acres of land which would bring
1920, 900.
But Mr.. Fem thinks it will amount
70 moro than that. This money will
constitute an irreducable fund, the
interest to be annually distributed
aiseng the counties. The terms upon
