Love Germs and Lingerie Are CoincdentaI

A LOT of the idiosyncrasies of young
IA girls and budding debutantes,
susceptibility to love affairs and their
romantic notions generally, among
other things, we're explained to sever
al hundred mothers the other day by
Dr. Eleanora c. Follkmar at the ex-
hibition hall IT the Congress OF Hy-
giene and Denis'graphy.
DR.. Follkmer said that many times
girls cannot help these little things.

line to womanhood. The fault is with
nature, not with the bellies. she ad-
mitted. They should be gently re-
pressed.
DR.. Follknar. who is stoutish lady
Of middle age, told her sisters to de-
nude their daughters Of pretty shoes
and corsets. She condemned especial
ly the brand Of corsets which conduce
to the "waspish waist"
OF the activity Of the love germ in
the budding belle she said:
The period Of passage from girl
hood to womanhood is the period of
self-consciousness, of early love af-
fairs, Of hero devotion, worship or de-
votion to ideals and religious enthusi-
asm. These things are in part results
of the changes they are undergoing
physically.
This is also the period Of bad tenn
pers and the use of slang and profane
words During this period girls should
not be allowed to wear corsets or
high heeled shoes. Neither should
they be allowed to use stimulants, not
even tea or coffee. They should get
plenty of sleep and not be allowed to
go much into society or take part in
strenuous pastimes.
They should get nine hours OF

picked up that iron pot, and just gave
him a good whack over the head with
it. He seemed surprised. l really
didn't want to hurt him, but it seems

Judge Caverly looked Lombard over
and smiled.
You look like a man who has been

Mrs. Lombard. and the next time he
starts a massacre, you know about

DECLARES WARS SOON BE ABOLISHED

In an address on "The Natural
Forces in America Working Toward
International Peace" before the In
ternational Peace Congress at Geneva.
Switzerland, Mrs. Elmer Black, chair
man of the propaganda committee Of
the American Peace and Arbitration
league, declared that war as means
of settling differences between ma
tons will soon be abolished. She
said that there were certain invincible
forces working toward this end, with
little noise, but with irresistible
power.
Using conditions in America as an
example, she said in part:
There are certain great natural
forces working in America toward the
final consummation of world peace.
These natural forces are developing
the processes of social and economic
evolution throug h which we are work
ing out our part in the worlds des-
tiny.
First among these I place the
