And this is what Mrn Slyman said to his
wife ten minutes after:

to get such a chance at her age, and we're

DISINFECTED KISSES.
Science Comes to the Aid of Love and
Takes the Sting Out of Pleasure.

Science Comes to the Aid Of Love and
Takes the Sting Out of Pleasure.
From the st. Louis Republic.
The gratitude Of lovers is due DR.. Hurty
of the Indiana state board of health, for
extricating the sting of fear from the kiss
of love.
Scientists have been trying to discourage
the pleasant practice of slipping the nectar
mating that mixed with the honey were
swarms of horrid bacteria that were likely
to give the Slippers any kind of an old thing
in the way Of complaints from a bad cold
to a case of diphtheria.
Although we believe that there are lovers
who will tell the scientists and their bat-
terra to go to blazes and will take their
nectar at the risk of life and limb. yet
the Information is disturbing ard tends to
embitter the honey and take the edge or
the relish There is a fly in the precious
ointment Of loves delight, and the courts
Of sweet dalliance are haunted by the spec
tiers of the sick room.
But DR.. Hurty has shown how all Of
these specters may be driven away and
mortal men may again revel In the sweets
of the ruby lip. as they did in the old days
when ignorance was bliss. He says all
that Is necessary to make kissing health
full is to carefully wash the mouth with a
disinfectant before Indulgence in the lux
ury.
This simplifies matters for lovers. All
they need to do is to make free use Of
disinfectants and they can hit the lips as
often as they please. OF course. the first
question when a man calls on his sweet
love will be, Have you disinfected?" and
If the answer is mutually satisfactory-and
We presume if it Is not a bottle Of disin-
fectant will be handy-then carbollzed lips
may meet carbolized lips in q dream of
bacterialess bliss.

Tunnels Under Tunnels.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger
One Of London's underground railways,
the Metropolitan, Is about to make an ex-
tension which will demonstrate at least
one Of the advantages Of the underground
system for urban transit. Finding that the
demand on its line is greater than can be
met by its present facilities, the company
is about to construct two tunnels under its
present roadbed one Of which will be used
for inbound and the other for outbound
trains. and both for express trains only,
leaving the present road to carry the
way travel The tunnels will be operated
by electricity, thus avoiding the annoyance
of smoke, steam and gas, and permitting
perfect ventilation, while the fact that
they are to be constructed on the property
already owned by the company does away
with the enormous expense for right of
way which Is a serious drawback to sur
face or elevated roads in cities. 1t also
does away with the expense and annoyance
Of consequential damages. which Is an OBJ
stacle to the erection of a second story
to the elevated railroads in New York. No
matter how many tunnels are constructed,
one below another. they shut off nobody's
light and air. and give nobody a chance
to complain that he Is injured in his busi-
ness or the enjoyment of his home, nor do
they ohstruct streets or injure in any way
