THE PRICE OF KISSES

An ingenious young lady who is officially the
handsomest woman in California, having written
novel, declares with indignation aroused by carp
ing critics that there are only three kisses from
cover to cover, and they were introduced as con-
cesson to the public. It appears then that the lit
erary kiss is article Of commerce OF limited sup
ply. Somebody of sordid commercial habit suggests
that the book is sold at so this would fix the
market at so cents kiss Indeed, it is grave and
reverend inquiry, and another phase of the same
subject suggests to the Pomona Review this heart

A QUEER FICTION OF LAW
There is strange and illogical division of labor
in this work of taking care OF the fools 1t is an
money under false pretenses but it seems as if the
states had one and all abdicated their function of
justice in this regard and turned it over to the fed

spirit OF compromise that characterzes American
institutions that the postoffce department is per-
mitted by of queer legal fiction to take jur-
sdiction of the endless variety of swndling with
which American cities are infested
The swindlers are not prosecuted for obtaining
money under. false pretenses which is their real
offense, but for mstsing the mails which is purely
incidental to their business. It is fiction of law
twisted to useful purpose but it follows that if
the swinders transacted their business by carrier
they would be immune from punishment Many of
them do that. There is one office building in this
city which is no better than nest of thieves
