mon humanity calls for it 1t II not a
question over which the city council
can properly assume any Juri7dictioh'
There appears to be a disposition
among certain Of those who originally
voted for the bridge to rsscind their
decision, largely on the ground that
the bridge would be used by only a few.
Now the facts simply are that about
one hundred persons cross the river
daily at that point being compelled NJ
nresent 10 use the railroad bridge This
bridge il exceedingly dangerous, has
cost already one life and has endangered
many more What right has the coun.
ell 70 consider whether the bridge II 10
be used 10y few or by many AS Mr.
Mulhollaud remarked the saving OF one
life would more than pay the cost OF
the structure
Moreover the suggestion regarding "A

hurrying TO or from work are not apt TO
take the trouble to pull Themselves over
the river by rope if any other means
offers itself They are much more like

STIFFNESS OF KISSING.

DIR Rose A Russell, at Neenah, Is dis
gusted with the kissing habit. She ex
claims to Chicago Chronicle report
or Imagine Young girl allowing
half a-dozen Young men to kiss her
at party We do not know wheth
er the fair doctor gets her contempt
for this widespread habit from actual
personal experiences of lts seductive
ness or not but we are inclined to think
from the above quoted expression that
there are some thinga about 1t the good
lady has overlooked Perhaps she new
er was kissed or was kissed So long ago
~ 10 have lu4tthe keenness Of recOllec-
tion regarding the matter But she sure
IL must admit that there is kissing and

we can readily imagine how kiss might
| be- detrimental to the peace and happi
ness of both the giver and the re-
ceiver There are undoubtedly many
cases where it il highly distasteful to
one or the other When ~ n Callow
youth we were martialled into the par
or and instructed to salute an elderly
maiden amt it may not have been dis
tasteful to the aunt bnt il eel tanly was
10 us
But if the fascinating Doctor Rose
imagines that it il the thing for young
girl Mt party to allow half a.dozen
young men to kiss her we should be in
terested to know in what class of So
ciety the e-timable lady has been nc
customed to move 1t may be that sit
ting unkissed in corner and catching
an occasional glimpse Of some fair rival
undergoing the treatment she naturally
might exaggerate the same. But If Dr.
Rose knows anything at all about the
matter we rather suspect that she does
not she should know that one Of the
main Vaccinations about the kiss is its
exclusiveness This we have upon the
highest authority The promiscuous
kiss losses charm, we have been told
and is therefore not INDUCED in II is
the kiss TO one alone OF Mt the most to

OF course we can easily Hynpathize
with the Doctors point Of view Any
one relocated TO the necessity Of kissing
members of his or her own sex, or mem
berA Of the opposite EEK too old or too
Young or too homely TO present any par

Of sympathy We ourselves, have nev
