should happen that most all of her

You'll excuse me if | talk plain.
There's no way Of saying what I

just want to give you my own home
made opinion on q subject that is al
together too much neglected. a sub
ject that most writer's and speakers
are too doggon cowardly to tackle.
Just the other day | heard a prom
inent citizen Dragging Ito a crowd of
mem about how he used to go all the
gaits before he was married. He
seemed to consider it en- honor to tell
his men friends about how he ran af-
ter the mean women in his single
days. He seemed to think such
record was something to be proud of
manly in the eyes of other men. And
SO he Dragged about it, and told all
the revolving details of how he made
a beast of himself He had gone the
whole gamut of illicit pleasures, and
was proud of it.
But after sowing his wild oats and

things of the under world, the brazen
libertine decided to marry and settle
down. And of course he married a
pure, virtuous woman. He wouldn't
have had any other kind-for wife.
He had used the other kind until his
beastly appetite was satiated with
them, and he wanted a change. Now
why in blazes isn't a female prosti-
tute good enough to be the wife OF
male prostitute? That's the question

is it that when man and woman SIM

woman and be looked up to as a

by swell society, while for the temale
prostitute there is no door open ex-
cept the door that leads turthel
down?
We will admit, for arguments sake
+ba+ these men are true to their wives
after marriage. Many OF them are
and lots of them are not. But does

Does that wipe out the shame o
