Free Drinks and Free Passes

Closely following the Pennsvl-
vania railroads proclamation tha.
after the first of the year no free
passes shall be issued, comes the
declaration from Director of Public
Safety Potter, Philadelphia, that he
will prosecute and, if possible, de-
prive of his license, any saloon
keeper who furnishes free drinks to
policeman in uniform. Thus one
good deed inspires another.
The demand of free passes by
politicians and free rum by police
men is graft and compliance With
the demand is yielding to black
mail. A distinct step in advance
will have been taken when both are
stopped.-Et.

OHRIGTMAS WEATHER

Although we did not have a
white Christmas, it was not what
might be called a green one. 1t
was clear and cold, and in the after
noon there were snow flakes in the
air for little while. Speaking of
Christmas weather several gentle
men who were making comparisons
agreed that the Chris mas Day of
1877 was the warmest known in
their existence. The weather then
was more like a balmy day in May,
no overcoats or wraps being worn.
The first day of January, 1873.
was even nicer than Christmas, one
of the gentlemen in the party as
serting that on that day he sat out
with party in the woods while
they drank a key of seer, the
weather being almost summer-like
at that time.

turned her steps towards the house
OF her sons savior.

some things which cannot be re-
paid. l really don't know how to
express my gratitude. ] thought
you would, perhaps, be so kind as
to accept this purse, embroidered by
my own hand"
" Madam" replied the Doctor
coldly, medicine is no trivial
affair, and our visits are TO be re-
warded only in money. Small
presents serve to sustain friend
ships, but they do not sustain our
families"
" But, Doctor" said the lady,
alarmed and wounded, speak
tell ne the fee.
" Two hundred dollars, Madam. "
The lady opened the embroidered
purse, took out five bank-notes OF
one hundred dollars each, gave two
to the Doctor, put the remaining
three back in the purse, bowed
coldly, and took her departure
