It was traced from place to place and all agreed that it was the negro and not a white man that had been handled. The physiciap in charge of the hospital, said: “It is probably the right body, as mulattoes and light colored negroes very often turn white after death.” The widow re fuses to accept the body. Attractive Women. Why is one woman attractive and another not? The most attractive thing about an attractive woman is her womanliness. Everybody ad- mires a womanly woman. She must have health, of course, because with out it she would lose the brightness of ber eyes, the fullness of her cheeks and her vivacity. Real health must mean that a woman is really a woman. That she is strong and per- fect in a sexual way, as Well as in every other. That she fs capable of performing perfectly the duties of maternity. Some are born with what is called ‘constitutional weakness ” Those who do not enjoy perfect health, need ouly take’ the proper precautions and the proper remedy to become perfectly well and strong.
