...disgust with sex not only inspires one of the finest sonnets ("The expense of spirit in a waste of shame is lust in action"), but it erupts with sour rancor in all the major tragedies but Macbeth. With almost prurient relish, Hamlet chides his mother not to let the "bloat king" with his "reechy kisses" tempt her again to bed. The eightyish Lear, who might be presumed past sex obsession, works himself up into a fury on the devil in woman's flesh...

But the plight of the Amish was a footnote reminder that the welfare state has its victims...
...morning in mid-March. Mrs. Gladys Lowman, 31, wife of a roofer in Franklin, Ohio, awoke with what she called a bad stomachache. Drugs brought no relief all day. An orange-sized lump soon began to bloat her abdomen. When her doctor ordered emergency surgery. Dr. Walter A. Reese at Ohio's Middletown Hospital operated at once. He found a hemorrhage in a kidney that had apparently been displaced from birth. Swiftly, because the patient otherwise would have bled to death, Surgeon Reese removed the kidney. Despite massive transfusions, Mrs. Lowman lost so much blood during the operation that...
