This time it is voiced by Miss Ellen M. La Mot te, the ranking officer in Br. BosBfey's corps of fair and accomplished nurs es. The contact of lip and lip, says Miss La Motte, affords an ideal oppor tunity for the voyaging ofpathogenic organisms. Most of these germs, wihen they enter the body at all, do so by way of the mouth. Of such sort are the germs of diphtheria.tu hMvnlnsis mpiipiicitis. influenza, the simple coUfl. and all the familiar ju venile plagues. Therefore it is thou ghtlessness and often cruel to kiss, and some times suicidal to be kiss ed. Why Is a Kiss? Thus speaks science, and its man date should be observed as to ba bies, and by invalids. But the ma jority of folks, no doubt, will keep on kissins:. We have often wondered at the enormous popularity of the ex ercise. Why do you people kiss? The act itself is ridiculous as a spec tacle tTid unsatisfying as an amuse ment. Its sole physical aeconipain ment. is a foe-ling or' suffocation, and on the physical side it is fre quently embarassing particularly if an unsuspected audience reveals it self, say, by satiric whoops and cat calls. It has none of the charm of other pleasures, such as eating and automobiling, or solfeggio, for exam ple, kissing will neither builU up the anaemic nor soothe the neurasthen tic. The Man Who Dares. But still it thrives, and no jere maids on its perils will ever work its abolition. The man who makes a practice of kissing the fair sex is a man attracted rather than repelled by danger. He knows that every kiss he steals is full of fearful hazards. The girl herself may black his eye, stab him with a hat pin, or cati the police; and then again she may choose to regard his idte favor as an offer of- marriage, and accept him before he can make his escape. Yet again, her father or brothers, detect ing him wiath arm around her n;ck, and with his eyes gazing into her forehead, may rush in, and hail him as a relative touching him for small loans, calling him by his first name, and seizing offensively upon all the other familiarities which rela-tives-in-law affect. Finally, the mo ther of the girl may knit him puljse warmers, and send hint amateur rem edies for his rheumatism and red nose, and her little -sisters may gig gle every titne they see him. No; it is impossible to scare the seasoned kissing man with sinister talk of microscopic replies. He is used to larger game, and he loves danger. It is his pleasure to fare out into space upon a gossamer strand, blown by strong winds, and with the fathomless abyss of matri mony yawning beneath him. In such grisly perils he enjoys. 63nl ewsspapei com e to in ThA l rtTiSlnVr nays if the man that n-fSom ethin g to sell so regulates his advertising as to con vince other people that it is worth buying. Aljl the substitutes for new s paper advertising can be easily a voided or disregarded by the- very people the advertiser tries hardest to attract, the man or woman that can afford to buy. They do not stand gaping at billboards, they do not take in handbills, and. they will not bother with circulars in the mail because they are too busy. But their old friend, the newspaper, is taken into the inmost privacy of the fam ily circle and cannot be excluded, breakfast table and at the supper, it is read at ISeisure in the evening,and its pages are scrutinized with the interest bom of long habit and dis criminating taste. An advertisement in that newspaper goes into the fam ily circle and cannot be excluuded. It is welcome because it is a part of something else that is welcome, and it go?s there at the very time when the occasional domestic coun cils takes places.

All Druggists. j Children Should Have Regular Dut I ies Do theThings That Make for j Contentment and Keep Them on Farm. ; Children ought to have regular du j ties, and then have some time to I themselves. Our boys aljt have a corn crop, one has a calf, one a pig, an other a colt, another chickens. Tiiey I are encouraged to have a bank ac- count, but are allo wed to spend their j money as they please after advis ing with mother about it; and they are a contented, happy lot with scarcely ever a grumbling or cross word about their work or with each other. If one wants to go squirrel hunt ing early in the mornang,he will get the others to do Ms work, promising a like favor when they, want same thing done.. It is enough, to make any mother's heart glad to see them take turn about, and by the time it is light get a colt from the stable, and bare-headed, bare-backed. no bridle, with a sheperd dog follow ing, gallop to the back side of the pasture for the cows. I am sure they enjoy it as much as the town boy does his moving picture show. In summer they go in swimming and one time the summer drew off the pond, and had quite an exciting time catching eels. Then fall come? and they gather apples for winter, get bushels and bushels of walnuts and "soaly barks,' and pick peas, half of which are theirs for the picking. Sometimes I get tired of all the work incident to a busy -farm, and almost wi slide I lived in town; then when I think of what I would do with my six boys in a 50-foot front 3ot, and when I see them growing up into hard-working, happy, healthy, young men I wouldn't exchange places with anybody.

Man Who First ConceivedCorn Con test Idea was Statesman Says the j News & Observer. ; Speaking ofthe corncontest among j the boys, the News & Observer says: j Tne man who conceived the idea of the boys' corn clubs was a states- : man who could see into the future. The hope of better agriculture lies mainly in the young men just as does the hope for better systems in near ly every line of effort. The older men are prone to follow the older methods and are "sot in their ways." This natural feeling finds expression in tihe maxim "its hard to learn old dogs new tricks." Most men con tinue along the ways they learned when they were boys. That fact shows the importance of com clubs in which, the bojrs are taught the best methods to produce the biggest crop to the acre. We hear much of the steady indus trial progress in Noi uhCarolina. We have built many mails and started the merry music of the spindles. Eut, big as has been the development in manufacturing, there has been more improvement in agriculture, and our farmers have just begun the intensive system by which the production per acre on all crops wilil be doubled within- a fewyears.
