the original document written in
Arabic and signed by the sultans and
dattos of the four chief Moro peo-
pies. They represent several nun :
dred thousand Mohammedans, includ-
ing the Samals of the Sulu Archl-
pelago and southeastern Mandanao,
the Moros of Jolo, the Moros of Gotta
bato and the Moros of Lanao and
elsewhere. The petition with the
translation was recently sent to
Governor General Wood to be for
warded to Congress through the Sec
retary of War. The petition was
taken in person to Manila by Datto
Facundo Mandi, Datto Lawi, and the
Sultan as Masioh.
The petition contains about 1000
words. It asks that the United
States, should it withdraw its SOW
ereignty from any part of the Phil
ippipnes, retain Mindanao, the Sulu
Archipelago and Palawan as an inde-
pendent territory to be administered
by the United States alone for at
least so years, or two generations,
after independence had been granted
to the rest of the islands.
The petition requests a simple form
of government, without suffrage and
with American officials, who shall act
as referees between all tribal and re-
ligious demarcations. 1t welcomes
American capital 1t asks justice and
equality for Christian, Mohammedan,

to pass his time with some compan-
ion softer than a prizefighter and
dearer-if it is possible-than a dog
fancier-then, We say, and we say it
cmphatically, the young man ought to
get married.
But stop, Before the young man. or
the young woman, can take any steps
in the direction OF marriage they
must first fit themselves for it. All
the manuals on the subject are united
on this. Young people must not be
hurried into matrimony until they
have an adequate knowledge of a
great many things that it will be es-
sential for them to know in married
life. Most important is il that our
young people should have a proper
acquaintance with the laws Of health
knowledge, in short, of their own
bodies.
The young men and women OF our
present generation-in spite of the
existence of the admirable little man.

Are painfully ignorant of their own
bodies. We ourselves met a girl the

esophagus was. Apparently she had

gus for 20 years and didn't know she
had one. Inquiry showed that She
was also ignorant of her diaphragm
and what it did for her. and knew
nothing OF her ccre ebellum except that
it was part of her foot.
Thsa girl. charming as she ap-
peared externally, was obviously un-
fitted for matrimony. Indeed, We
