Promlscuous Kissing and Drinking

Promiscuous Kissing and Drinking
1t has long been the custom for peo-
pie to pick up every baby they see and
give 1t a hearty kiss. This most fire.
quently happens when the person
wants to make favorable impression
on tile mother Of the child. Doctors
have advised against the practice, but
without much appreciable effect, so
Secratary Probst, Of the state board OF
health, appeared before the ministers
union in Columbus and strongly urged
not only reform in promiscuous kiss
ing Of babies, but In all members Of a
congregation using the same cup at
communion services.
Secretary Probst cited number OF
cases where disease germs we're trans
mitted by what he called "mous,S-to-
moutii, method, That frequently
! otherwise healthy babies were given
diseases which were dormant in adults
because more vigorous constitution
kept them down, but the baby's frail
constitution was susceptible and
disease made itself manifest, the par
ents, wondering at the origin or cause
Another reform he urged was the
passing of the communion cup from
mouth to mouth. He protested strong.
ly against this practice, saying there
was q great danger in the spreading o.
disease thereby.
The ministers asked Mr.. Probst
what remedy or remedies he would
suggest. In regard to promiscuou'
kissing he suggested that 1t be stopped
and as to the communion cup tina
each person have his own.

WHEN a president is inaugurated at

with a large, new Bible, which is after
ward presented to some member OF his
family. But Mr., Cleveland in 1856
took the oath on his mcther's bible.
II was d small book, morocco bound
and guilt edged. So far as is known
he still has the book, and it is the belief
that it will be used at the coming cere-

LONDON, Feb. 14.-Mr. Davis, former
ly consul at Honolulu for Great Britain,
said in an interview Sunday that the
provisional government of Hawaii was
composed of men of prudence, intelli-
gence and property. The accession of
the Princess Kaiulani to the throne,
he says, is the true solution of the
present trouble. as the Hawaiians
would never consent to annexation. He
thinks it a pity that England did not
interfere in the government Of the
islands some time ago, and thus avert
the present crisis.
