It may be all right now but if the

The hat pin as a weapon of de-.
Tense has been something of a joke
but it was no joke to Daniel Sweeney
in Milwaukee, Wis. On New Years
Eve he is alleged to have insulted a
woman who used her hat pin to de-
fend herself. Sweeney died last Thurs
day supposedly from heart trouble,
when it was found that the woman's
hat pin had punctured the aorta
through which his life's blood had
oozed for two weeks, drop after drop,

injustice OF trying to establish caste

SEX HYGIENE IN THE SCHOOLS.

SEX HYGIENE IN THE SCHOOLS.
The Chicago school board has very
wisely decided by a vote of two to
one to abolish the teaching Of sex
hygiene in the public schools. The
study ought never to have been intro
duced; such instruction should be left
to the parents to impart. Ignorance
is not innocence and it is necessary
that the child should receive instruc.
ton In purity Of living but the in
struction ought to be given by the par.
ents. Teaching sex hygiene in pub.
lie schools increases knowledge and
lessons modesty, SO the child loses
more than he gains.
