Ban on Depot Oscillation Wouldn't Go Here
SCOFF NO-KISSING RULE

Atlanta is a progressive and prosperous
city and in a city of such accomplish
ments kissing has just got to be. Al
any rate, l would hate to be the man
who tried to stop it."
Gatemen who have worked elsewhere
are authority for the statement that
kissing in railroad stations is neither
more general nor promiscuous in At
anta than in other cities
A second gateman called into the
discussion looked at the matter phil
osOphically.
This anti-kissng is the idea OF
cranks and, like all their ideas, i'm
practicable. kissing didn't start with
this generation, and this generation is
not going to abolish it. Let these anti
kissers take a walk down here on one
of our big days and get an eye full OF
this kissing stuff. He will see that he
could stop it just like he could stop eat
ing or other amusements"
According to the stations attaches
watching kissing matches is the only
excitement they have. Its abolition
would not only work a hardship on the
travelling public, but would rob rail-
road employees Of their one JOY in life
1t can be safely asserted that if any
society for the protection of girls trav-
cling alone starts an anti kissing in
railroad stations agitation in Atlanta
they will find eight gatemen at the Ter
minal station strenuous opponents.

JERSEY LILY To
SET STYLE PACE
Actress to Show Newest Ac-
Gordon Plated Skirts in
Tour of United States.

LONDON, Sept Lilly Langtry
Uady DeBathe) has been busy fitting
herself out with some wonderful new
frocks for her approaching twenty
weeks vaudeville tour in America.
The Jersey Lily has kept her figure
to a marvellous extent and much OF her
good looks, too, and is still able to
launch mode with the youngest of her
sisters. The chief lesson to be learned
from the frocks and frills which litter
her fiat al Regents Court is that the
hobble skirt may be regarded as a back
number and that the accordion pleated
skirt has returned to stay
The pleating, however is not nearly
so close as was the case when it was
last in fashion and the result is far
more graceful, the garment outlining
the natural lines of the figure Other
points to be noted are that evening
dresses all have separate foundations,
and that though there are no panniers,
many of the skirts are gagged round
the hips, producing a slightly pannier
effect.
One particular gown is a pleated shot
gray and silver charmeuse over pale
pink satin, yelled with gray ninon. This
! frock has tunic of gray net embroid-
cred in silver and pearls.
Mrs. Langtry is relying on her suf-
| fragette sketch, Helping Along" for
| her tour, but may also produce another
sketch She says she finds American
audiences more stimulating than the
English. and naively adds that, whereas
in England critics only talk about her
frocks, in America they give her credit
for her acting also.
SO she is looking forward to her
trip, her only sorrow being to leave
her garden, to which she is devoted.
She attributes her health and young
appearance entirely to the hours she
spends daily in gardening at her coun-
try home near Newmarket.

The art of kissing as practiced in

tom and good form. may be tabooed if
Switzerland's moral reforms acquire d
vogue in this country equal to the one

nouncement that America may follow
Switzerlands example
The Swiss government the other day
passed a law prohibiting kissing in

fine for each offense.
Thus runs the Swiss law as posted
