the love powders proved effectual.
Gossip has made many hell on
earth. Gossip has parted husbands
and wives. Gossip has blackened and
sullied the character of many girls.
Gossip has parted lovers who would
have been happy if it had not been for

discretion will cause gossip to rise with
new strength and start on her mission.
Her, did we say! We ought not to, for
we have our male gossipers and as a
rule they're ten times as venomous as a
female. A good healthy male gossipeI
is about as mean and low and danger.
Gus thing as there is on earth.
