wen boys to the accompaniment of a
medley by tn. institute band, while
not a part Of the competition, made a
tremendous hit. especially when the

MOUTH NO PLACE FOR COINS.
Dangerous Practice Too Frequently
INDUCED in by Women.

women are addicted to many per-
nicious habits" observed physician,
"but | cannot conceive of one that Is
more idiotic than the placing of coins
in the mouth while the purse or money
bag is being opened. Most women do
this, especially in the street cars, and
are doubtless unmindful of the fact
that they are thereby inviting danger
Gus throat and lung troubles. / have
often watched women holding coins
between their lips, and have been
very strongly tempted to utter an ads.
monishing word Only to-day | saw
a beautiful girl give a conductor a
dime. Sitting opposite to her was
dirty-looking man, whose hands looked
as If they hadn't been washed for a
week He gave the conductor a nickel
and the conductor handed it to the
young women in change for her dime.
She placed it between her lips while
she opened her money bag. Why does
not some ingenious woman introduce
a small pocket or some device in the
feminine wardrobe that will take the
place of the lips for holding coins?
Certainly she would be benefactor
to her sex"
