CONFLICTING LAWS.

Funny conflicts in laws sometimes
occur. For instance the east coast
towns Of England have legislated
against the showing of any kind OF a
light at night. This is to prevent
Zeppelins from locating the habita-
tions in the darkness. But another
law makes it misdemeanor to push q
baby carriage at night without it hav'
ing light attached. And so those
people who dislike going around in
the dark, simply push a baby buggy
and 50 seemingly keep within the law.
