kissing came to stay" asserts
Editor Crossap, of the Hatley Her
aid. cit is as natural for some
men to kiss a kissable girls as it is
to squeeze her hand. Kissing is
clearly an act Of reciprocity-you
kiss me and 1 will kiss you. It il
especially true when the law of
mutual attraction is in it's full nor
mality. No one seems to know
who invented the comfortable,
pleasing and sweet habit of kiss
ing, and no one seems to have
monopoly of the exercise through
the patent laws. Kissing may be
an evil, bnt if it is it seems to be a
necessary evil that will hear to NO
repentance"

1T's A BITTER LESSON

ITS BITTER LESSON
learned by many a woman who thought
love all-sufficient, that love alone cannot
be the foundation Of the home. It needs
health. Strange as it may seem the
beautiful loving woman who is weak
may lose the love of the husband for
whom she broke all home ties, while OIL
the other hand woman who has no
greater dover than robust health may
win and hold the love of her husband
past oil possibility of loss The first re-
quisite of marriage is health. The wife's
first necessity is health. Health must
be the mothers or she will know no
happiness in her children. What makes
ill-health so common among women?
Why do they suffer with headache, back
ache and pains past description? These
sufferings are in general caused by dis
ease of the delicate ~ofnanly organs, and
they are in general durable by the use of
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
