WOMAN KISSED ALL;
HAS "OSCULOMANIA"

Columbus. Ohio. June 21.-Numer-
Gus defenseless men who ventured to
walk down Front street were attack
ed and made victims of Ella Dunn,
who went on kissing spree and kiss
ed everything in sight for miles.
Her romantic adventure ended in
the police court when Judge Osborne
coined a new word 'osculomaniiac,
to fit her case, and recommended a
fifteen dollar fine as treatment.
Ella had soulkissed. Tanguaykiss-
ed and Leslie Carter-kissed half a doz-
en- suffering males, who managed to
escape her embrace and flee in terror,
when she finally encountered Harry
Kennedy. Harry objected and, when
Ella reproachfuliy reminded him that
he was her husband he abandoned
moral suasion and resorted to his
fists
Evidently considering that he was
justified, the judge dismissed him
while Harry sighed and wistfully re-
marked that it is awful hard for a
poor. weak man to defend his honor
these base degenerate days.
