The present demand for cleaner
marriages and the study of eugenics
brings one eventually past the mere
consideration of cleaner bodies and
into the question of cleaner minds.
If we would bequeath to posterity
cleaner physiques and sturdier bodies,
not alone must we decide to live bet

the mind of the canker of unhealthy

1T is scarcely a matter of wonder
that the youth of to-day seeks I'M
