The American soldiers leaving San
Francisco for the Philippines are respon-
sible for an entirely new lovers idea. They
have the portraits of their sweethearts
skilfully tattooed upon their backs.
Professor Jake Londella of San Fran
| cisco Is the man who makes living by
| tattooing the faces of infatuated folks up
| ON each others backs. Londella's business
brings him into contact with men, women
| and children. Women are his Iest-eustom-

sion: s.
During the war I tattooed many a sol
dier's photo upon his sweetheart's arm,
| and the soldier often had her picture or
name, written by herself. reproduced upon
| his breast. Many British soldiers have
had the portraits of their wives or sweet
| hearts tatcoed on the back before going

GERS especially. l know one who has the
portraits of two girls tatteoed upon his

If woman realizes how important 10
beauty is the fool they eat they would
not be so careless as they VIGOROUSLY are
| as to what they consume and The manner
in which they dine, lunch and sup. A
| physician OF large practice declares that
drink and hurry and worry send most men
to the Insane asylum, but love affairs,
combined With a lack of food, throw most
of the women on their balance. The owe

them if they we're properly fed, but among
the illusions in which girls and women
indulge is that, as they care very little
about their food. so the lack of 1t cannot
have very much effect upon them. They
rather despise men for being careful to
have regular meals, whether business
