WOMEN RESENT THE PRETTY MAN
Some Women Like Handsome Men and Others Prefer

Are Not Averse to the Cave Idea.

Women, however, are guilty OF
inexpressible coarsenesses. The incest

times and tell the most frightful stor-

friends and will laugh howlingly in

some person said in a novel not long
ago the ideal social state will have
been reached when the right man
gets the right woman into his particu.

And even then the ideal social state
will not continue. Because nothing
can continue. There will never be
an ideal social state. It's because life
is, as said here before, fluid. 1t GIBBS
