i The effort to investigate Southern
election methods, it is said, will be
renewed Immediately after the con-
Nening of Congress. If the investiga-
tors will dig as thoroughly into Penn
sylvania politics as they propose to
do into the politics of the South, there
would be very little Democratic oppo-

kind will be permitted by Boss Quay.

Another Discrin1ina q ton.

At a recent meeting of the Bethel Lit
erary the speaker of the evening, a
prominent professional gentleman, made
the statement that cOlOred people are not
more or less susceptible to certain dis
eases than are the whites as has often
been claimed by learned scientists
Another professional gentleman in the
audience took part in the discussion of
the paper and declared most emphatical-
" that we are as a race more immune to
certain ailments than are the whites. and
also that in certain other diseases the
latter are much less liable to contagiOn
than are we
1t would appear that the second pro-
fessiOnal gentleman is right, for beyond
question the colOred people are much less
frequently attacked by malarial and vel
low fevers than are the whites and the
reason therefor is very plausible.
These feVers are mainly prevalent in
the warmer and tropical climates and
are transmitted largely by mosquitoes. AS
we all well know those pesky insects get
in their deadly work after dark and in
seeking whom they may devour, they
generally fail to see the people of the
darker persuasion while the whites in
varlably fall easy victims to their venom.
While this explanation was not given
during the discussion of the paper it

eat onions and as l love them dearly
do not wish to give them up. Do you
not think that they are healthy food
and that he is rather previous in saying
what | must not do before we are en-
gagged?
Also where is the proper place to kiss
a girl? | say on the check or forehead,
but he says on the lips. Now which of
us is right? MARY JANE.
You are right about the onions, as
they are appetizing and nourishing. but
your friend evidently does not like the
subtle fragrance which they leave in
their wake. You should always take the
precautiOn to slowly masticate half a
pound of cloves and some Sen-Sen, both
of which you can get from him, as he
doubtless uses them himself-and not
for onions. AS to your last question
think the proper place for a young man
to kiss a girl is wherever he can-in the
parlOr, in the vestibule or any nice dark
place where nobody will see.
