WANTS COMMISSION RrLE E

x S1 A
 Three hundred cities in the United States have adopted commission gov ernmeft- A majority Of these cities have adopted it since 1908 Up to that time it was limited to the cities of Texas which adopted 1t because of it's success in Galveston
 Among the larger cities that have adopted it are New Orleans, St. Paul, Denver, Memphis. Seattle and Des < Moines. Iii St. PauI the plan is not yet in operatiors but in the other cit- les named the new rule has made for efficiency and honesty and economy tn municipal government,
 Commission government has given E the people such satisfactory results in every citya where it has been tried fhat they would not think of retur n- ing to the o1d ward form
 k TO course the Kansas City po1iti- clans say that commission govern ment is a failure But the people who are affected by it and who pay the expenses of it in 800 cities declare that \ it is a success
 k This conflict of opinion may easily be accounted for Commission gov ernment everywhere has operated to take the cities out of the hands of the politicians and put the peopie in charge of their own afairs-Kansas City Times.

 TALKS ON HEART TOPICS

A Girl Light O. Love.


 They look upon her as girl who has not had proper training, who has not had it made known to her that she does not rebuke the man who sues for her kisses misses matrimoay. By en the betrothed girl has to be very chary of Loves sweet, innocent offer ing, the kiss. Too much kissing leads to a disinclinatfon to set an early wed- ding day.
 I Indeed, in many cases. it has tended to pro1ong courtship, extend it over decade or more of years. The lover who is denied plethora of kisses is the more anxious to wed and to bear. the object of his alteration to a home Of their own. A girl should not think that kisses are the magnets which draw a. lover to ner side. or that his visits would cease if she re- fused them. She who keeps a man at his proper distance is the girl he sets his heart and soul on and he de- tern1ines to wed her He seeks her society because he finds in her sen sibIe, good and intellectual compan- i ion. a young woman Of dignity and re- hnement. She may not be a clever kconversationalist; Indeed, she may. be very shy, aye. dependent upon her relatives and friends to help her enter I,4afn him. He will apprecIate her none the less because of it.
 He admires the girl who likes to have her family abo ut when her best young man is there. The more ob- I staeIes placed in a suitorss way and inc less spooning he may do the more highly dle prizes the jewel which seems hardly within his reach. A man knows very we'll that 1t is not l the nature of the general run of young women to be cold of heart. He un- derstands that it is coy maiden mod esty which causes them to instinctive- Iy draw back from a caress on the lips. It. The orphan girl whoS has no one to guide her has generally unerring lintuitionF that it is decide eaIy wrong to permit the familiarity Of a. kiss . from the masculine sex other than 1.-the closest of relatives. Girls who are flax in a matter of allowing kisses should be cautioned gently. It should
 be explained to them how lightly men
 think of such girls. They should iEknow, too, that there is a class of
 young men who make open boasts oi Isuch liberties. If a, girl has lost one
 narriaEeable man by allowing kisses | 1t will probably be a lesson to her. She will profit by the Knowledge that sfa- miiiarity, breeds contempt

KISSES AND MISSES.

Pretty misses give their kisses
 Tn a free and easy way;
 And they wonder. think and ponder,
 AS to why they single stay But wise misses save their kisses
 Till each has upon her hand
 < His :. most pleasant diamond present
 Set within a golden band.
 Poets and painters. the world over. have associated rna1dens with roman tic beauty. They have incuIcated m youthfuI minds the belief that g1rls were created for love. their lips for affection,s kisses, their hearts for faith and happiness
 Down deep in their soul these poets and painters know full well that Love is not the Alpha and Omega of any woman,s Hfe;s that she who is wise guards it's approach with discretion Pretty girls attract the attention and admiration Of men as the fairest and sweetest of flowers attract the royin g bees. But with mankind admiration and love are two widely different sentiments. If "a girl is coquettish and over-se ntime entail, the young man who { is beauing her about may think it nc harm to steal a kiss from er@pouting lips. It must be said in favor of
 most men that they are abashed lat their own daring. They surmise that it will be promptly resented This is | apt to be true in most eases. Nowa- days, girls understand that the maH Ewho would proffer them so sacred Q
 caress without being an accepted lover holds them lightly in his estimation Their resentment elevates them in his opiniony No matter how much a man may admire girl or how near he IS to proposing marriage to heR il she accords him the kiss which he
 may plead from that moment he Eceases to think of her as the girl whom he would have for his wife. He may mentally calculate whether or nc she has not permitted Tom, Dick ol Harry to steal s kiss as they escorted her home from theatre or dance and ETnurrnured goodnight, from the shad- 1 ow of her porch. Kisses have been said to have lost more lovers for girls l than they have ever gained. No man lswants an over affectionate girl, for a life comparion. They have no conf dence in her. She appears to them Las
