TOBACCONISTS' HOURS.
Early this year the Hon. P. C Webb, Minister of Labour, published in «. Gazette the fixed hours for tobaccoSßTtta, which, I think, are quite rcasouaHe, The Gazette notice also provides t&4 all shops selling smoking requisites wi'l close at the same time. I think it h just about time the Labour Department rounded up the dairies and mixed buii. nesscs and compelled them to hare a half-holiday per week and close at 8 p.mj, I have seen so much tobacco handed over the counter in these businesses as tobacconists sell. Or else let the tobacconist sell milk, bread, butter, cheese, etc., and keep his shop open till and* i night. ONLY AX OBSERVER.
