DECAYED DOMESTICITY

Houses are gone. In flats one dwells
Flats higher than st. Paul's dome.
The orchcstras of new hotels
Drown the old strains Of Home, Sweet
Home"
Only the nurse by baby stays
Only the club our food can dress:
We from a cooklcss kitchen gaze
Upon a nursery motherless. -.
Reckless the modern woman throws
Her high prerogative away.
Forth to the market-place she goes,
And does mans work for womans pay.
Yet If some pallation's sought
For woman's error,-nay. her crime
There Is at least the simple thought.
This has been going on some time.
Domestic arts whose loss we srevc
Have been decaying every year
Since Adam first observed TO Eve.

LEGAL VALUE OF A KISS.
Suggestions Evoked by Suis against
Ex-Fire Commissioner.
(From the New York WorldD

Said the cynical Dean Swift, Il Won
der what fool it was that first invented
kissing" John J. Scannel former fire
commissioner of this city and now
gentleman farmer" of Fshkin Landing
y. y, probably echoes this sentiment
whenever he thinks Of the suit brought
against him by Mrs. Laura White to re-
cover $1,000 for two labial salutations.
There seem to have been no decisions
which may serve as a guide to determine
the value OF osculation unwillingly I'M
posed. Some time ago a fair plaintiff at
Ballston Spa brought suit to recover
5000 for breach of promise, in the
course OF which It was shown that l,99G
kisses has been bestowed and accepted,
but a jury allowed her only $500, or
see per kiss, In the action brought by
Mrs Antonio Filskow Of New York,
against Dr. Anthony Hoffman the kis-
sees valuation was rather high. A kiss
on the check was estimated bv her as
worth $4,000 and another on the mouth
at the same figure, making the
total cost $4,000. which is $4,000
over Mrs. Whites estimate, The lowest
price on record comes from Newark, n.
j., where In 1902 a Jury awarded six
cents to Miss Theresa iIervey, who ask
ed for $500. But here 1t was shown that
she had forgiven the offender, A YER
diet was recorded in Wisconsin for slj,-
90, being the price of five kisses at S.
OOO apiece, while in 1860 Recorder Wal
colt, Of Little Falls, y Y, fined the
pilferer 500.
The wide latitude given to a jury is
manifest by these decisions. Possibly
