You "fi&ve Just
said so at a public

with yoj. I Aon't

Xsuch .wgges or not

,of you. "A good woman Is good whether
'she ,1s poor or rich." you said to the-Vice
commission, "and her wages have noth

Again, .quite so. You are a clever man;

than a -hyena knows about a little brown

would be absolutely useless when It camfe

1 "Good women are bom good. Nothing
.can make them bad. They will starve,
they will suffer, they will die before they

Some men would rather die than, turn
pickpocket. Come men would steal very
handily almost any time to keep from
; .Bolng without a meal. I fear that there
are many fairly good men who belong
.to this latter class, but women, are dif

Head,
Nature has a remedy for catarrh and"

stomach with medicine.
It is the healing oils and baliamn of
; Hyomel which medicates the air you
breathe, reaching the most remote air
cells in the nose, throat and lungs, kill-
Ing the catarrhal germs, and restoring
' health to the mucous membrane.
" VIn -using Hyomel you are treating your,
catarrhal troubles with the natural rem-
edy, for It ClVs a curative air bath to
the air passages. It has a powerful heal
ing and. antiseptic effect similar to the
air in the mountains where the forests
give off the fragrant and healing baU

Hyomel has benefited so many suf
ferers of the worst cases of .catarrh, with
offensive breath, raising of mucus, fre
quent sneezing, droppings in the throat
and spasmodic coughing that it Is sold

Starvation Wages
any other philanthropist who ever lived
can drive them to the streets for food,
no matter what pittances you pay them.
Where does that let you come out. Mr.
E'hllanthroplst? The fact that a woman
tarved to death rather than earn her
board and clothes by the cruel road of
shame wouldn't make me any prouder of
the fact that I waB the roan who starved
her to death, would It you?
Good women don't turn bad because
they'll die if they don't. They die be
cause they won't turn bad. They sicken
and faint, and starve, and freeze' on the'r
$3 a week, and they dla good women not
because we have; helped them to hfe good
with our philanthropy, but because we
would not help them to live by being
Just, That's alt: Is that a thing to be
proud of? Shall such knowledge rejoice
our hearts?
It always makes me smllo a little bit
terly to hear a refprmer-i-tell how hard
It is for a poor woman .to .be good.
It Is not hard far a poor -woman to be
good: It Is hard" 'for a- good woman to
"be, -poor. .' . '
Jl Is natural, rfor hcx.ta.bs.'gpod; It
Is part of er, like her sWh"'andhe,r hair
and her yhfy eyeB. She's brave, and
she's honest, artd. ..she's h& 'working
because -that's the way she Is made, and,
thank heaven, tho w.orld Is ' full, glori
ously full, of women-Just like her, women
who wdnld walk, to the scaffold If they
had td rather than give up one lnstant'8
right to look the world o .tempters
straight In the face and say, "No, I
thank you; such' comfort Is too dearly
bought."
Is that any reason for keeping her at
.work on starvation wages? Do you say
to yoMrsslves, you employers who do this
thing, "She's good, this girl; she won't
do wrong, thpugh I starvo her to death
at 'my vory door," and are you glad that
you do It when you think so?
"Iiow wages drive a girl to shame."
No! low wages don't drive a good girl to
shame nothing on earth or over the
earth can do that but they do drive a
good girl to misery, and want and hun-
gor, and cojd, and because they can't
drive her to shame. Is that any reason to
be proud that you've done your best" to
do It?
. Weak girls, loollsh girls, vain girls;
yes, these poor things go the dark road
Just because It 18 the easiest way, they
think, poor hungry things but they might
have gone there any How, poor creatures.
I've known as many, girls who got J 20
a week go wrong as I have girls who got
four. . What has that to do with the case?
I suppose I am an- eccentric, but sonie
how I'm afraid I'd feel worse about kill
ing a good woman by stow starvation
than I would about drlvjng a poor girl
to the streets who was perhaps bound
there anyhow from the very day she was
born.
"I pay over 1,000 of my glrjs JS and
much under t5 a week. I don't think
that has anything to do with the white
slave conditions. A good girl Is good no
matter. what she gets."
Precisely, Mr, Philosopher, but It that
any reason that men of high business
abJJIty should keep her hungry all the
time she's being good? I should think
that w.ould be the very reason they'd
want to help her be happy and comfort
ablejust because she Is so brave, just
because she Is so fine, Just because she
Is so good.

Advice to Lovelorn
By BEATJUOK FAIRFAX.
Dear Kiss Fairfax: I am a young girl
of 18 yeara and considered very attrac
tive. About six months ago I met a young
inan through business and he offered to
ttake. me out I accepted" and he called
several times, after that, at my home.
Then he went on Ml vacation and we
corresponded. On his return I saw him
once, then did not hear from or see him
till three weeks ago, when he wrots and
asked If he might call. I answered yes.
and we spent a very delightful evening.
I have not heard from him sines. Now
1 know that I have not offended htm,
and as I think a great deal ot him, what
shall I do? PATIENT.

No Other Part of an Animal's Body Serves
So Great a Variety of Purposes as the Teeth
1
Br GARRKTT P. 8BRVISS.
I have been reading some recent sta
tistics about elephants' tusks which are
of great Interest, not only In themselves,
but In what they suggest about the future.
A n elephant's
tusk, In the lan
guage of tho shoot
era of big game, Is
a tooth.
Science also rec
ognizes it as a
tooth, because ot
Its structure and
mode of growth.
Our ordinary
ideas about teeth
are very restricted.
In fact, there is
no part of an ani
mal's body that
serves so great a
variety of purposes as the teeth, They
ara'used not only for "slezlng, tearing,
dividing, pounding, or grinding food,'
but also for weapons of offense or de
fense, for aids In locomotion, for means
of anchorage, for uprooting or cutting
down treefl, for Instruments of trans,
port, and for handling building materials
All these uses were noted by the great
naturalist Owen.
The elephant's tusks are, of course,
examples of teeth used as weapons, but
they also serve as means of transport
ing heavy loads. The bearer uses Its
teeth as cutting Instruments, as well as
to aid It In -arranging the .materials of
Its houstv"
The walrus employs Its long, downward
pointing teeth, or tusks, for hooking up
seaweeds and for helping it In locomotion.
Even man has developed many other
ways of utilising bis teeth besides that of
chewing his food. He can fight with

A girl baby is born, and so miraculous
a thing Is birth that her fatht-r and
mother get down on their kne-j before
this little pink wrinkled roseleaf of a
mortal and vow such a miracle was never
wrought before. '
They become slaves before a ruler too
young to know wisdom or justice. They
become obsessed with one ambition, and
that Is to gratify every whim of the ca
pricious little queen of their nomo.
She cries for toys her father cannot
afford, and he mortgages his future peace
of mind in getting them. She demands
service from her mother that sails for
weary hours of hard labor, and shows no
gratitude at the result
She came Into the world unspoiled, and
the two to whom was Intrusted tho plan
of keeping her so pervert their 'ove to
such ends that before she' Is t she nam't
a grace of her babyhood left
She had her way as a child in cbooslnr
that which was not good for her. She
will have her way with more tragic re
sults when the wrong man comes woo
ing. Yet in the face of the experience
of others, parents continue to let the
whimper of a spoiled child send flying
every bit oC Judgment and common sense
they ever possessed,

My dear woman, you can do nothing.
You have'aIready""idone too-much. In the

things. It Is too late to convince her
that sho can't have her own way now

better hold on a rope than his hands
afford. There are not many seamstressos
who do not find their teeth a ready sub
stitute for sclssorB in cutting thread..
If the prediction, which one often reads,
that man will eventually become a
toothless animal should be fulfilled, It Is
evident that It would not be merely the
power of mastication that he would lose.
He would lose weapons and tools, of
whose utility away from the dinner table
he seldom thinks.
There would be one aesthetic gain, how
ever, in the loss of the human teeth It
would abolish the gumrchewers In the
street cars and subway trains.
In the statistics that X have mentioned,
the fact is stated that a single firm of
blllard ball makers uses In one year the
tusks of 1,140 elephants! Three, hundred
tons of elephant tusks are sold yearly In
the London market But the.lophant Is
a vanishing animal, and -manifestly this
thing cannot go on Indefinitely, unless
elephants can be raised uti farms, like
ostriches, and "cultivated" for their
teeth.
In fact, It would Impossible to keep the
Ivory market supplied were It r.ot for the
"fossil" tusks of mammoths, whloh died
thousands of years ago, and are now
found In Siberia and elsewhere, preserved
In the froion soil.
The African elephant's tusks are the
most esteemed, becauso they are un-t
usually hard and white. The tusks of the
hippopotamus are also used.
Man has never been able to lnvont a
substance that can fully take the place
of Ivory. It owes Its wonderful elasticity
to Its structure, which it shares. In a
general way, with all tooth-like pro
cesses. The hard substance, says Owen, is ar

The average welght'of a full grown
tusk ts about sixty pounds, but In excep

Thoro Is one pair of tusks In oxlstenco

tho weight of one being 35 and that of
the other 233 pounds.
The length and girth are very variable.
An eight-foot tusk Is regarded as a
notably large one, but there are some In
museums measuring from ten to over
eleven feet. Some yeara ago Major
Powell-Cotton shot at elephant In the
Congo whose tusks weighed, together,
372 pounds. Sometimes the greatest cir

two feet '

current uses of Ivory 'In order to' under

but It is also . used for planofort keys,
combs, brush backs, cane handles, chess

and. In addition, the pigment called ivory
black Is formed by burning Ivory shav

In ancient times some of the most
famous sculptured figures, which were
occasionally of glgantlo itr. tike the
great cryBelephantlne statue of Athena
In the Pathonon, were made of alternate
plates of gold and Ivory. But Is ts the
Increasing demand of modern Industry
and luxury that has brought about a

years ago It was estimated that from
