"sHE HAD BUT ONE DREss."-

They found her murdered one morn
ing. She was but child, yet she
had a profession. It is not named in
polite society. Nice persons, when
they have need to refer to it, call it
"the easiest way"
It did not take the police long to
inventory her belongings. "She had
but one dress"
Careful mothers will probably see
that their young daughters shall not
read her story. But some of the girls,
will buy the paper on the way to
school-their teachers know this;
and some of the girls will stop at the
library and read the story in the pub
lie files-the librarians will tell you.
Hundreds of girls will read the sor-
did tragedy-and not have the slight
est idea of the circumstances which
led up to it, although they will re-
member that "she had Lat one
dress"
There's a more important lesson
for girls in this story.
The murdered girl was innocent
once. Perhaps her mother had
guarded her-had protected her too
well-from the knowledge that there
is a special evil always waiting, lurk-
ing for girls.
1t is not for the newspapers to
dwell on this angle of the tale.
But some one should. do so.
And who but mothers should point
the warning in the truth about the
girl who had but one dress?

A VALUABLE ANTIDoTE. = OF


account of his affection for a young
and pretty nurse, a western man is
endeavoring to divorce his wife,
whom he married 25 years ago.
He is reported to have said: 81 am
no more responsible for this new af-
lection which has come into my
heart than would be for contracting
case of scarlet fever"
Maybe he isn't. We haven't tried
to keep up with the 81 new theories
about affinities and the righteous
ness of that especial variety of love
which is inevitable" but we do
know that that man holds himself al
together responsible for some other
feelings.
There's loyalty, for instance.
A man expects to be loyal to
man friend through thick and thin"
And there's '1ove of country" A man
may not always approve of the way
his government is run, but he will
fight to the death for his native land,
even in a bad cause.
And then-if their emotions trap
them, some men will substitute a
new wife for an old wife and account
for their lack Of loyalty as they
would account for catching scarlet
fever
Just so. But scarlet fever can be
cured. And loyalty, taken conscien-
tiously, is wonderful antidote for
the affinity poison.
