Very few people take the time or have the inclination to study out thei underlying causes. They know thatj so n thi! j i wrong?that there has been a weakening of the moral fi. bre?but so long as it does not reach the ir.rer circles of their homes they are satisfied to dismiss such ghastly affairs with a shrug of the shoulders and the reflection that those who sin must pay the price. But the illustrated sections of the Sunday papers tell another story. Here all -lie filth and slime and immorality c: the week are raked up and presented to the gaze of the American you-;li in the shape of nude women of scmi-respectablilitv.

Sw.:.. * ago the government GIRL DIES FROM SXAKE BITE. Little Doris Cranshaw Passes ai Home of Parents. CoClumbia, Sept. 8.?Little Dorh Cranshaw, seven year old daughtei of .Mr. and Mrs. B. D. Cranshaw. 1103 Woodrow street, died at hei home early yesterday morning frorr the effects of the bite of a snake which she suffered last Tuesday after! when she was in a corn field witt other children about seven miles from Blaney. The little girl, who was barefooted, was in a corn field on the Kirkland place and was trying to climt in the back of a wagon, which was drawn by a mule. While passing through the field the mule gave a sudden start and a moment later the little girl felt something strike her on the right leg. She was taken seriously ill in a short time and was carried to Blanev, where first aid was administered, and later was brought to Columbia, and despite efforts that were made to save her life passed away yesterday. ; She was conscious at times after reaching her home. While no one saw the snake, all symptoms were those of snake bite. The mule, which was struck on a hind leg, was also at once affected by the venom injected where the fangs of the reptile broke the skin. The attending physician said last night that the probability was that a rattlesnake had struck the little girl. Doris is survived by her father and mothH and by two brothers, Donald and Marvin, and two sisters, Misses Margaret and Lena Cranshaw. She was a bright and attractive cnna and her tragic reath has brought sorrow to her friends and little playmates. The funeral services will be held at the residence, 1103 Woodrow street, at 4 o'clock this afternoon and will be conducted by the Rev. W. S. Hardin. Interment will be in Elmwood. excluded from the mails a certaic magazine which one always found iE barber shops because it carried the pictures of half-naked women in various poses. That magazine was .a Sunday school pamphlet as compare ed to some of the illustrated Sunday supplements that are allowed to circulate through the mails as secondclass matter. Some of the women who pose for the camera are said to be women of respectability. This may be true. But the women who allow a permanent record to be made of her nude flgifre has no sense of decency. What must be the feelings of a daughter or son, a grand daughter or grand son who a generation or so from now gazes upon such a picture and says this was my mother or my grand mother held up to the world in all lier nakedness? But let us go a little further. Paris, as most of us know, is the Babylon of the universe. Even before the war its morals were at a low ebb. Since the war. if we are to believe the newspapers, it has been the scene ofi revelries that would have made Nero, the most depraved of all moral lepers in history, blush for shame. Here is a Paris dispatch taken from Monday's papers that eclipses anything we have ever seen in the public prints: ''Paris, July 3.?As the result of the wildest week-end party ever given, forty French beauties are back in Paris minus their tempers and the reputations as being the most extravagant dressers in Europe. It took a bevy of American and English musical comedy stars to outclass the French in the matter of sensational gowns. "The party was given by Wolf Joel, son of Sully Joel, famous Johannesburg diamond king, at Pourville, the new gambling resort near Dieppe in which he is a large shareholder. "Four hundred of the most famous beauties in Europe received return tickets from London and Paris to attend the opening of the Casino. "Joel announced that he wanted to 'out deauville Deauville' in eccentri - - -- -c a n rl s? c MlP TPSUlt l_"l ly u i. laouiuua uuu %.?? Parisian beauties came prepared. "Nina Mval, and two other actresses traveled 150 miles from Paris attired in bathing suits. Ninette Juree came chiefly atired in a wig and a georgette kimona, like a harem queen. "On their arival, however, the French found that American and British women had gone them one better. Betty Trelswmey, former Follies chorus girl, and more recently a dancer In Paris, promenaded swathed more or less in narrow ribbons. Frances Baker, of Chicago, revived the 'half p^ece' bathing suit, which was only fourteen inches long from top to bottom. "Lady Diana Cooper. England's reigning beauty, created a sensation in a lovely one-piece light blue bathing suit over which she wore an organdie kimona. "Phillys Dare wore a London creation of 'beauty ventilators' designed TO FLY AT XIGHT. t Postoffiee Department Making Plans For Xew Mail Service. 3 Establishment in the near future * by the postoffic-e department of night flying in the air mail service between * Chicago and Cheyenne, Wyo., which i will make a flight across the conti' nent in less than thirty-six hours pos sible, was assured when J.

The two historical horses, the ' mounts of General Gfrant and Gen eral Lee, which appear in Stanley . Arthur's mural painting, ''The First " + rvn_ uay oi reauc, iui mc a t i^v i ver, Del., have been arousing discus sion among veterans who remember the heroes' favorite steeds. The white horse upon which General Lee is mounted in the picture, has been identified as Traveler, the . silver beauty that went through four I years of war with the Confederate. commander and escaped without a scratch. General Lee was his only rider. No one else might put a sad1 die on Traveler, and after his mas1 ter's death he had to be turned out 5 to pasture, for he would permit nobody to mount him. General Lee took Traveler with ' him when he accepted the presidency of Washington and Lee university and moved to Lexington, Va. He rode the war charger along the highways about the college, often so lost ' in thought that he passed people without seeing them. To, every mood Traveler would -ac' commodate his gait, and he had al!j most all the gaits known to the train'} ed saddle horses of fhe Virginia gen'j tlemen of that day. When he died, * rj Richmond and Lexington mourned | an equine'idol.?Detroit News. i *?*"**?^?P | to provide maximum coolness. Mrs. "* r ~ ? ? J ?

"Gladys Cooper, gaiety star, wore the most fragile bathing suit ever , seen, constructed of expensive lace ! which would be ruined on the slightI est contact with salt water.

The foregoing is enough to make angels weep and devils laugh. NoI tice the names of "prominent sociei ty leaders" who atended the mad debauch as spectators. The first question one asks after reading of this disgraceful affair is, "Where were the police? Why did not the strong arm of the law reach out and throw these moral transgresi sors into prison? Why are such people allowed to pollute the atmosphere in which respectable people live and move?" But the answer is fofind in the same spirit of indifference with which we look upon the immoral Sunday supplements which parade the nakedness of women before the American public. Nowadays the man on the other side of the earth is almost a next door neighbor. Wireless transmission of sound, the cables and fiveday mail ships have made the world mighty small. A scandal in Paris or Hong Kong is almost a community affair. Tt reflects itself in America through the medium of the immoral Sunday supplement. Who knows but it is just such as that has blighted forever the life of the 15-' year old Alamaba girl and crushed fond parents with sorrow? We know of the fate of Babylon and Sodom and Rome. If we follow in their beaten paths is there any reason why we should escape a similar fate??Dfion Herald. /%/%/% Cures Malaria, Chills, Fever, Bilious Fever, Colds, and LaGrippe. V ? s J. F.
