CAsT1NE, Sept. 10. The flag raising
at Nautilus Island, Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson
entertaining the Charles l.. Stevens
Post, No. 76, of Castine, and other
friends, while pleasantly informal, was
an impressive event. The stars and
stripes, the U. S. navy league flag, and
full spectacle from all points of the har-

on the tip of the staff. Before the flags
were run up short speeches were made
by Mr.. Wilson and members of the post,
and afterwards salutes were fired to
the nations symbol, which needed not
to be counted since all knew the number
of the white stars on their blue field.
Cheers and tiger were then given to
the star and stripes and the navy league
flag, and in the silence that followed ten
der and heroic memories took possession
of all hearts.

Afterwards the guests strolled freely
about the charming estate, and were
shown the curlos in the house and taken
up to the rooftop eighty feet above the
wide expanse of waters, exclaiming at
the amazing view, as from a mountain
peak, that sweeps the horizon from Blue
hill to Camden mountains, with Goose
Falls nesting in its cove, where the
houses were reflected, and Castine
browning its cape. Finally the host took
pictures of the streaming flags, with the
"old soldiers grouped beneath them,

Mr. Lou-Teiegcn bowed his head sadly,
That, then, was the cost OF his impetuouB
kiss!
Of course. the true case herein recited
is not singular one by any means. It,
simply illustrates what scientists have,
long taught, and what lovers have dis
believed or ignored for many years.
Scientists have claimed that all sorts Of
diseases are carried by the kiss. that tho
kiss is one of the easiest methods Of in.
lection. Scientists have claimed that
thousands OF deaths have been due to
germs transmitted by Needless OSCILLATION.
If the danger OF the kiss is admitted and
proven, shall we seek substitutes? What
shall they be? Shall gallants confine
their ardor to kissing lady's hands!
That method will be comparatively safe,
at least. declare the scientists. il thel
lady thus kissed washes her hands befnrel
conveying food to her mouth.
Or shall lovers impress fond and ten.
der kiss upon the eyelds of the lady Of
their heart? But, ah, declared the scien.
lists, the eye is peculiarly susceptible to
certain infections, and such n kiss might
be followed by cold in the eye. OF
course, there are the cheeks and neck
but again scientists say the only safe pre-.
caution under such circumstances would
be for the fair one TO wipe off the portion
thus kissed with sterilized handker.
chief.
The impressing Of kiss in lady's
hair has all the sanction of romance-it
is an established form Of showing ones
affection. Scientists say, however, that
germs find refuge in the hair, and that as
a woman's luxurant locks roll about on
her pillow at night her lips might pick
up the germ that has been lurking in her
tresses. This would simply be delay
of infection.
Considering the horrible doom that con.
fronts lovers, is it possible that kissing
will ever be given up altogether? Or will
judicious lovers compromise and adopt
the use Of sterilizing tablets? "Will you
give me a kiss, Mary?" lover will ask,
under such circumstances. eyes, IL you

Mr.. Tcllegen wanted to know what the
pneumococcus was. The doctor explained
that 1t is germ that seeks it's home in
the human tonsils and there propagates
ana muitiplies in endless numbers. II Is
frlghtfully contagious. 1t Is a germ that
has no respect for the station or condition
OF people, and seeks to continue it's de-
vastating journey from human being to
human being by all sorts Of adroit means.
1t can be communicated by a handshake.
1t floats in the air. 1t waits for it's prey

transmission is by means of the kiss. Lou
Tellegen was solemnly warned against
kissing his wife.
