conditions they found in the State penal
institution. They declare that the SAM
tary conditions Of the prison are deplor-
able and a physician member Of the COM
mittee states that he considers the insti-
tuition dangerously unhealthy. as it lacks
not only decent ventilation but has not
semblance of modern sanitation any
where within it.
The cells are hardly large enough,
members of the committee say, and they
consider it little short of marvellous that
the prison officials have been able to keep
the prisoners in comparative good health
when the existing conditions are under

of the buildings and not inef1lciency on
the part of any officials is the cause OF
the unhappy conditions at Thomaston,
they say: and, in fact, compliment the

WOMEN KISS WOMEN, WHY?

There many forms of courtesy practiced among
people that may be readily understood. Some of them
very timely and express polite civiity These
ncities often admirable, but why women kiss

might be of those courteous acts of the remotes past
the origin of which has long since dropped from the
ory of man.
Sometimes this peculiar courtesy of
parting of the way This deduction is drawn from the
Good Book Orpah kissed her mother in law and return
ed to her land and people. But Ruth, 'entreat me
not to leave thee for whittier thou goest, will go, thy
people shall be my people, and thy God my God"
Here, the long practiced custom reveals unfahful
heart in the and the steadast determination shown by
the other, which not expressed by kiss reveals
unfailing love-
can readily see how the act of kissing when practc
ed by the opposite may, sometimes be mplmacal
We know from the science of electricity that like charged
bodies repel but the unlike always attract Hence this
act when done by the opposite be accounted for
from scientific view point. But the enigma comes when
this custom pracced by the like in the absence of
blood relation.
