lows: Beery, bemused, boozy, bosky,
corned, foggy, fou, fresh, hazy, ele.

podgy, beargered, blued, cut, primed,
lumpy, plowed, muddled, obfuscated,
swipey, three sheets in the wind and
topheavy. But the acme" says the
same authority, "is only obtained

see a hole in the ladder or when he
is all mops and brooms,' or off his

Dances Planned for City Buildings

d OSTON.-Public dances in mu-
- nicipal buildings, with proper re-
strictions and chaperonage, is the
suggestion advanced by Miss Alice
P. Vanston of the Social Service
House, as a remedy for the conditions
In the dance halls.
Il want to say first of all" Miss
Vanston replied, when asked her opin.
ion on the dance problem, that there
should be some place where the girls
and boys can dance. It may be that
the chief injury done by the public
dance halls comes from the fact that
very young children are admitted to
them.
Boys and girls get their first and
only idea OF dancing from what they
see in these halls. The remedy Tor
this has been suggested in the rails
ing OF the age limit from seventeen to
twenty-one years. This would cut out
from the enjoyment OF a very inno-
cent recreation a very large number
Of young people. The enforcement
of proper conditions and careful su-
perVision would be better, It seems to
me. than this discipline by elimina-
ton.
When a girl is shut up in fac
tory all day she must have some
other exercise, and dancing gives her
a good general exercise, which she
can enjoy with music and among her
equals.
Every neighborhood should have
A building where the men who pay
taxes and their wives and children

take much of any sort of food. Even
the various kinds prescribed by the
doctor produced most acute pain.

and you can imagine my surprise and
delight when found that could eat
it with a relish and without the slight
est distress.
when the doctor heard Of It he told
me to take several small portions each
day, because he feared / would grow
tired of 1t as had Of all other food
"But to his surprise, (and that OF
everybody else), did not tire OF
Grape-Nuts, and became better day by
day, till, after some weeks, my stom-

to eat anything my appetite craved

weakened that feared / would be-

Real Nature of the Kiss, as Viewed
by a Writer Who Has Clearly
Studied the Subject.

1t is the fashion of the more bilious
moralists to put kissing among the
gross pleasures, with eating, yodling,
snoring and the use OF tobacco; but,
as a matter of fact, it is not a corpor-
cal delight at all, says a writer in the
Baltimore Sun. It's sole physical ac-
compartment, indeed, is a sensation
Of suffocation, and this, as all viii ad-
NIT, is scarcely agreeable No; the
insidlous charm of the pastime must
