ABOUT TIE Art CT KISSING
Writer Calls Practice Folly, but II
Is Not Likely Soon to Be
Abolished.

Why do people kiss? The act itself
is ridiculous as spectacle and unsat-
isfying as an amusement It's sole
physical accompaniment is a feeling
Of suffocation, and on the psychic side
II Is frequently embarrassing, partic-
ularly II an unsupported audience re-
veals itself, say, by satiric whoops and
catcalls. 1t has none of the charm OF
other pleasures, such as solfeggio. eat
ing and automobiling, for example.
kissing will neither build up the
anaemic nor soother the neurasthenic.
But still 1t thrives, and no jeremiads
on its perils will ever work its aboli-
ton. The man who makes a practice
of kissing the fair sex is man at
tracted rather than repealed by dan
ger. He knows that every kiss he
steals Is full of fearful hazards. The
girl herself may black his eye, stab
him with a hatpin or call for the po-
lice, and then again she may choose
to regard his idle favor as an offer OF
marriage. and accept him before he
can escape. Yet again, her father or
brothers, detecting him with his arm
around her neck and his eyes gazing
into her forehead, may rush in and
hail him as a relative. touching him
for small loans, calling him by his
first name and Selling Extensively
, upon all the other familiarities which
relatives-in-law affect. Finally, the
mother of the girl may knit him
pulse-warmers and send him amateur
remedies for his rheumatism and red
nose, and her little sisters may giggle
every time they see him.-Baltimore

stones which prevent any cultivation,

PERSIAN WOMAN'S HARD LOT
Belief in That Country That Females
Have No Souls Leads to Cruel
Treatment.

An Englishwoman, Mrs. Bonn, has,
like so many other English folks
whose one wish seems to be that for
eign countries they should go see"
been travelling about Persia, which she
does not seem to fancy greatly, and
the people and their customs less.
Those who live In Seistan, for in
stance, that Is the men, treat their
wives badly, as orientals usually do,
and why not, since nothing is so GER
tain as that women have no souls. The
Seistani, then do not respect women,
and after the usual fashion Of the east,
treat them as playthings while they
are young and pretty. The women are
not as unhappy as they might be. Mrs.
Bonn thinks they are thankful while
the day of jewels and silks lasts, and
afterward as age comes on, drop back
into drudges, caring for their success
sors' children, and content II they are
not beaten.
In Persia, as in most eastern coun-
tries, there are great numbers OF peo-
pie with sore eyes, owing largely to
the glare and dust and dirt, and Mrs
Benn, being presumably woman with
ideas on hygiene, thinks yet more Of
the multitudes of flies which swarm
over all food and the faces of the chill
dren without disturbing the Persians
at all. What troubles Mrs Benn most
of all is the fact that she saw women
and camels harnessed together draw
ing the pillow, and is of the opinion
that in some villages wife is estimat-
ed to be worth so many goats, or
sheep, or donkeys, or a camel or two"

Protective Legion on Rocks

The foolish people of Allegan and
vicinity who supposed that the Nation
al Protective Legion possessed any of
the qualities of the rocks of Gibralter
were rudely enlightened TO the contrary
the first of this week when from Waiver
ly, N. Y, the seat and home of the or
ganization, came the information that
this years dividend" would be $52.12,
or about $50 less than the amount paid
in by the members during the five-year
periods. They were warned some time
ago that bad news was coming and that
the technical deficit would have TO
be made up, but no one believed that
the amount to be paid TO persons whose
policies mature in the next three years
would be so low as this. The loss OF
the money does not bother some OF the
policy holders who were fortunate
enough to have s'drawn out' one or
more times, nor to those persons who
knew what TO expect sometime, when
they went into the society; but TO many
persons the loss of the money is hard.
There are scores of working people in
and about Allegan, as well as all over
, this and other states, who were putting
all their spare, hard earned money into
the hope that some day they would en-
JOY $240 or $500. The news of the col
lapse of the company was bitter to
them. 1t has been the chief topic OF
conversation this week, and, while
many persons who have lost their
money are laughing, too many are an
CRY and detected at the turn OF events
and the delusive promises. The whole
scheme was gamble from the begin
ming, and those who were deceived
thereby were not wise.-Allegan Ga
| zette
There are quite number in this vi
entity interested in the above and it
would be wise for them TO investigate
the same before investing any more
money in the association.

Possibly one of the reasons why
people wear clothes concealing the
entire body from chin to toes is be-
cause civilized people come in SO
many different shapes and would look
nothing at all alike without clothing;
consequently those with less shapely
figures would be badly handicapped
in life. But with everybody wearing
pretty much the same, and men and

questions concerning his financial
standing. At their behest he went in
to details concerning his fortune, tell
ing them just how much property he
had, where it was situated and how
certain portions of it were tied up in
trust funds. He explained to them
that he and his first wife had been
divorced and that enough of his in
heritance had been made into a trust
fund to give her alimony of $4,000
a year. Then he showed that he had
about 100000 a year left.
Chanler signed documents transfer

his interest in the alimony fund, to

Lima, who now controlled the purse
