conscience unhampered by the dread
that you may perhaps, be violating

DR.. Copeland is an advocate of sar-

that thin silk stockings had anything
to do with induiging the Influenza
epidemic. He says women have al
ways dressed much as they pleased.
and that. in his opinion, they may con-
tfnue to do SO, and at the same time
continue to enjoy better hsaitf1 than

The health commissioner reaches

NEW YORK, Dec. 4-Miss Lillian
Multke, nineteen, was awarded a ver-
diet of $4,000 by jury In Justice
Delhanty's part of the supreme court
yesterday against Homer w. Orzis, q
broker, whom she accused of attack
ing her last July.
When the case first came to trial on
October %, Mr.. 'Orzis failed to appear
and jury awarded Miss Multke YER
diet of $500, although the suit was
for $4,000 damages. The attorneys for
Mr.. Orzis then moved to have the YER
dict reduced on the ground that the
jury had no right to award more
than was demanded.
The case was reopened at their re-
quest, but Robert l.. Noah, attorney
for Miss Multke. amended his COM
plant SO as to make the action one
for $4,000 damages. When Mr.. Orzis
again failed to appear yesterday at
the opening of the second trial the
jury granted Miss Multke the entire
amount.

Dear Mr.. Frohman:
Il cannot hesitate to express my

our lighting men the message of a

From my understanding OF the

through thirty-eight years of broad
