Snuff Dipping in New England,

There Is no doubt, says u writer, in
the Boston Globe, that the practice of
snuff dipping IN New England is con-
fined almost wholly to factory girls, or
rather that they are the only persons
to whom the charge can be brought
home, and 1t is certain that snrpris-
lngly large percentage of the factory
girls of Massachusetts, would he con-
victed on such charge. Not that 1t is
penal offense to dip SNUFF. but every
reader knows us we'll as the girls them.
selves that If suspected of it they
would be brought before the bar where
public opinion sits as judge, and il
found guilty, would be condemned To
pay as severe penalty as society can
innict. 1t Is from the fear of this
that they indulge their love for the
weed 30 secretly. and boycott so thor.
ougbly every druggist who betrays
their confidence.
The girls usually hug their snuff In
fve-cent packages. and they get to be
so well known at the stores where they
regularly come that the transaction Of

Hudson and Mrs. Leave, Of Dallas, came
TO he married, and, owing to the fact that
the clerk was dead and his successor had
not been appointed, they could not get any
license. They telegraphed to the clerk OF
Paolo Pinto county, and had him issue
them license; but still they were in di-
iemma. They could not get 1t from there
under twenty-four hours, so they reused
