The youthful romance of Mr.. and
Mrs. Albert Lengman, IT and IA years

which she had brought the house.
Accompanied OH Honeymoon.
Lengman, sr., was determined Sat
urday morning that his son should
take his medicine" for his alleged

miued that Mrs. Hitchcock should
share in the punishment. His deter

which the younger man told at their
meeting at the county jail Saturday

Mrs. Hitchcock accompanied him and
his bride on their elopement to Beth
any, Mo-, where they were married,

that he wrote and cashed the checks
which brought about his arrest. To
each of the checks he signed the
name of w. H. Hitchcock. foster
father of his bride. This, also. he
said he did at Mrs. Hitchcock's direc-
ton.
Young Lengman told his father

against him at Bagley, Ia, and a
deputy sheriff from Guthrie county

The elder Lengman was deeply az
fected at the meeting Saturday morn

Don't Rule Your Child By
 Fright
By DIR. CHARLOTTE c. WEST


 Y WONDER how many of those hay
 ing 'the care of little children
 frighten these into sullen submis- sion by threatening them in devious ways? It is impossible rot to become aware of this practice among nurse maids who congregate in such large numbers on sunny corners in this great city of ours.
 Fright is occasionally the starting point of enuresis-as it is likely to be of any other nervous disorder in chil- dren.
 Speech is often temporarily and some times permanently affected through fright. A boy was recently thrown to the ground by large, but playful dog i; he was frightened and speech deserted him entirely for some hours. Another lad lost his speech completely for nine days following a severe fright.
 Defects of speech may have their origin Tn frights of which the parents are entirely unaware. The basis of stuttering is defective nervous con tlol; the determining cause is, in many instances, impossible to locate.
 In one case the child had been al- lowed to wander away and was lost for day. At the age of Il he had not yet overcome his stuttering habit, although under constant treatment.
 Who can determine the profound state of abject fright and the changes in the child's highly complex nervous system, consequent upon this experi- ence?
 
 Another child developed stuttering after fall down stairs.
 He was hysterically frightened for hours; it was only after a physician was summoned that the truth was re- vealed.
