Show Startling Warning to Blonds. New York. A startling warning to blue-eyed persons of light complexion is uttered by Dr. Charles E. Wood ruff, surgeon' and major in the United States army, who has just completed a private tour of the prisons and asylums asy-lums of the city and state. Jails and other institutions, he says, are full ol blonds who are unable to stand the struggle for existence in a climate tc which they are unfitted and have fal len into poverty, disease and crime. What is true of New York, he says, is true of the country as a whole, and, unless the blonde American finds or adopts some better means of survival than he has at present, he will be wiped out as a type in favor of the brunette. |
