NEW LAWS
Went into Effect Tuesday.-D
Changes

Abolition of public drinking cup.
Pure seed law.
interchangeable mileage books.
Compelling physicians to report
industrial diseases.
Filing chattel mortgages with
register of deeds.
Pure canvas law.
Amending method of serving

Prohibiting directed verdicts.
Uniform negotiable instrument
law.
Requiring notice for damages
from municipalities for injuries.
Limiting appeals to Supreme
Court.
A dozen new laws, enacted by
the last legislature, will go into eff
feet tomorrow. Several of them
are measures of general Importance
to the public, while others affect le-
gal and court procedure.
Of the laws effective one has be-
come obsolete before it goes into
effect, the act making mileage
books interchangeable. The law
was intended to save persons using
mileage books from paying 8 cents
mile for members of their families,
but under the new rate decision
they will be permitted to ride for
2 cents anyway.
The law against the public drink
ing cup applies to all public places
public conveyances and public
buildings. An opinion by the at
torney general holds that it applies
to all educational institutions.
The pure seed law applies to
corn, graiu, grass and similar ag-
ricultural seeds and requires that
the containers be labeled with
termination test and the percent
age of weed seed, if any, in the
seed, the place where grown. Pro-
vision is made for testing seeds at
the state agricultural college.
The pure canvas law requires
the weight in onnces per yard shall
be stated, and that no filters to in
crease the weight be used. 1t ap-
plies to all duck and canvas mat
erials for tents, awnings, stalk
covers and the like.
The uniform negotiable instru-
ment law is lengthy statute, and
is one of the measures drawn by
the national committee on uniform
legislation.
Under another of the measures
effective chattel mortgages, which
in the past have been filed with
the city clerk, village recorder or
town clerk, will all be filed with
the county register of deeds.
The most important of the laws
affecting legal procedure is the
changing the rules for appeals to
the supreme court and eliminating
several of the common appeals
which have been the cause of fire.
quent delay in getting final judg-
ments. The same law also permits
appellants to apply for a hearing
within 10 days and the court may,
even during vacation, grant an i'm
mediate hearing.

Tea Known In England Since 1915.

The earliest mention of tea drink
ing in England occurs In a letter from
Mr.. Wickham from Japan, dated June
27, 1915. In 1856 the English began
to drink tea in society circles, the sup
ply being imported from Java at the
cost of $50 to $50 a pound. 1t is
quite needless to say that the common
people did not drink much tea during
those days.

THE FLAW.

The two ladies were sitting at tea.
one was old-in fact, a maiden lady
the other a newly married wife.

band

getting to quaff her seventh cup OF tea
in her eagerness to discover some little
hitch in the happiness of her young
companion.
For one moment the latter looked as
though she would deny that she had any
cause for uneasiness. The next her
arms were on the table, as she faItered
out:
