Who supports the thousands of prostitutes? Who made them? Wherever you
find pauperism, crime, drunkenness, insanity, idleness, immorality, vice
and disease, you will find that the sower of wild oats has traveled the
path and left his stain and his footprints there.
SHOULD CIRCUMCISION BE ADVISED?--The answer to the above question is
"Yes," in every instance. If circumcision is done early,--during the
first two weeks of life,--the operation is without danger and
practically without pain. In quite a considerable percentage of all
males, circumcision is an absolute necessity. For excellent medical
reasons, about which your family physician can inform you, every boy
should be circumcised.

WHAT A MOTHER SHOULD TELL HER LITTLE GIRL.--Every little girl should be
told the Story of Life by her mother. It should be told in simple
language, so that the little girl will understand. Very early in life
the little girl will be prompted to inquire of her mother "Where do
babies come from?" It is wrong to give an evasive reply to this natural
inquiry or to postpone telling the story, because they will be told it
by playmates and will receive very wrong and very crude impressions of
this wonderful subject.
