A young broker in Boston. while Wis
iting certain household in the Hub
not long ago, encountered a number
of young women graduates whose con-
versation suddenly turned to dis
cussion of the development of the
English novel.
The dealer in stocks and bonds
speedily found himself "out OF it."
Presently, during a lull, one young
woman asked him:
What do you think of Fielding. Mr..
Brown"
"Oh. fielding is important, of course"
quickly responded the broker. but

so registered.
Smokers under 60 years of age must
decrease their allowance by one-fifth an
nually.
Equally important has been the COM
pulsory legislation dealing with the pub
lie dens for the smoking of tbs fatal
pitch. These had to be closed within
six months after the law weNt into
effect. That time has now expired, and
investigators in the various districts re-
port that the order has been generally
obeyed Not only that, but in cases
where in defiance of the law dens are
still open for the public they are little
patronized, the fear of official vengeance
frightening away the smokers.
The sale of smoking perquisites is no
longer permitted, neither may wineshops
or any other places of public entertain
ment permit the sale of opium or smok-
ing of it on the premises.
Shops where opium or anything con-
nected with it, is sold must be registered,
and must show an annual decrease in
their business under penalty Of confisca-
ton.
Moreover, the new law earnestly calls
upon the officials of the nation to set
an example to the people, and to oppose
wherever possible the spread of the
habit. Officials are ordered, in case they
be smokers, to give up the habit within
six months, and while this may not be
practicable, at least the law will have the
effect of compelling them to do their
smoking in private, and thus prevent the
populace from being able to make the
excuse that they have only been doing
what their officials did.
But proclamations are only OF value
in so far as they are enforced. and all
the laws in the world are useless II they
