Sunshine, PIants-and Girls.

Sunlight is so important to life that
1t is little wonder that sun worshipers
prevailed in primitive days. Plant a
potato in your cellar, and If there is
little light the potato will sprout and
try to grow Surround 1t with the best
fertilizer, water it, and do the best you
can for it except that you keep it in the
dark, and it cannot digest and grow.
See how slender and pale 1t is! The
process of digestion, the greaFfunction
of assimilation, cannot go on without
sunshine Natures laws are the same
in the animal world. 1t is just as true
that the only girls with red cheeks
and sweet breaths, the only girls who
become fully ripe and sweet, are those
who baptize themselves fully in glori-
GUS sunshine. The many pale girls who
are to be seen with bloodless, half
baked sort of face, whose walk, whose
voice and whose whole expression Ii
devoid of spirit, are not half ripe.
