Numerous applications have been r

Numerous applications have been made
to the Secretaryof the Treasury for the pc
sition Of inspector Of foreign vessels al
the different ports in the United States,
and upon examination Of The subject the
Secretary has found that the controlling
reason in most instances for the anxiety
to secure thu Sc places is the limited a
mount of work the inspector have had to
perform. Several Of these places have for
a number of years past been sinecures,
as not more than ten or a dozen foreign
vesse s would, in year, take advantage of
the law permitting their examination by
officers of the United States government.
The Secretary has therefore. re..decided, in the
interest of economy and good administra-
ton, to dispense altogether with the ser
vices of inspectors of foreign vessels at
Philadelphia, New Orleans and San Fran
cisco, and to have what slight duties they
would be called upon to do performed by
the local inspectors. The ga ary Of the
foreign inspectors who have been dropped
is $4,000 year each.

Social Etiquette.

Il year or two been in hr"er. So, as may lie
noted in tue behavior OF people whose

ject Good Housekeeping says:
The reform may he traced to two caus,
"A gradual perception of the tact that in

is not only unretined but is q source .f
danger to health and life. The fnrce of
these two arguments against promis-
cuous kissing as a social habit has been
strong enough to produce q noticeable
change 10 the practice Of women in socie
ty. Kissing b-tween women has not al
together gone out of practice even yet,
but as a social greeting it is being surely
dropped, except between relatives or very
intimate frislds, and even IN such circles
1t is becoming less common.
