P. BARSTOW & CO. Owners NORWICH, CONN. ruling of that august tribunal is as| follows: “A kiss is an operation which al- | Wways requires the permission of the person kissed. Kisses may onlx be given without special permission when the tacit consent of the other is cer- tain—that is to say, in the cases of close relatives, parents, chiliren and lovers. If, however, the other not merely affects coyness, but offers seri- ous resistance, it is to be assumed that the kiss is regarded as an illegal | interference with personal rights and | an_impairment of honor. [ ““Whoever, under such circumstances | imposes a kiss on another renders himself, therefore, guilty of an insult by act. For the fuifilment of these conditions it suffices that the kiss is} given against the will of the other. It | is not necessary that he himself feels the kiss to be insulting.” Betty’s Broken Leg. Sitting in the out-patients’ depart- ment of Bolingbroke Hospital in Lon- ldon the other day was a little lad of about eight vears of age, carrying very tenderiv a large basket. Fre- quently he cast anxious glances in the direction of the house surgeon, who ~—eventually asked, “Well, and. what's the matter with,you, sonny?” To hi surprise, the little fellow replied, tear- fully, “It isn’'t me; it's Betty!” “Betty, and who is Betty?" asked the doctor. The boy slowly and af- fectionately drew forth from _his treasured basket a fluttering hen, which, althcugh somewhat frightened at its surroundings, appeared quite tame. The boy then told how his feathered pet had broken its leg. This the sur- geon carefully examined, and it was decided to place “Betty” under treat- ment. The fowl's leg was quickly bandaged, and placed in splints. The | bird was then tenderly replaced in tne basket; and the boy, his face wreath- ed in smiles, bore it away to his home in Battersea. The bird was entered in the hospital books as “Miss Bet the boundary line between permissible and non-permissible kisses. This de- ficiency has now been made good by the Imperial Court at Leipzig.
