THAT new-fangled society lady
in New York who dismissed her
maid and hired valet is now
thinking very large "think." It
appears that her hubby dismissed
his valet and hired maid instead
in order to keep in touch with the
eternal fitness of "sassiety" folly.

There is an entertaining story in
the San Francisco Argonaut of
January Oath, under the title of
''The Blue Mule of Quitovic." 1t
is from the pen of Mary E.
Andrews, and relates amusingly a
little tale in which virtue is happily
triumphant over the Vaccinations
Of envy and malice.

The depot agent al Buxton on the 6.
N. delivered . G. O. d, package Of all
cohol. as express agent, and has been
convicted Of violating the provisions Of
the prohibition law. Judge Pollock's
charge was to the effect that in such case
the sale was actually made at Buxton,
and that the agent was bound at his own
peril to know what was in the package.
The decision is far reaching and will un-
doubtedly be appealed. It is stated that
the liquor firms have been in the habit
of sending out liquor in packages mark
ed c. 0. D., and instructed the express
agent to deliver them to whoever would
pay for them. On the other hand dis
guised packages are shipped in the same
manner to actual persons, and it is put
ting it pretty strong, to make the agent
responsible for the contents of every ex-
press package. 1t is one of the difficult
ties Of framing laws to be able to punish
the guilty and yet protect the innocent.
