From the Boston Traveller.
There is said to be law in Mas.
making it an cffense to
give away any object or thing AZ an
inducement to purchase other things;
for example. to give away a picture
with every certain amount Of other
things purchased. There was once
a law which made it an offense for a
man to kiss his wife on Sunday, but
was strangely silent about kissing
some other mans wife, Many O |
man still living can remember when
it was not permissible to open the
theatres in Boston on Saturday even
inss, and there WAS a law to punish |
any dissipnted individual found
smoking on the street Some of
these fantastic old legal freaks have
been done away with.
