National Kidnapping Law Proposed by U S Government
The United States government proposes a national kidnapping law that would cover the entire country. The proposal notes cooperation by local officials in some cases and cites a recent incident where a policeman arrested a kidnaped man and handed him to professional kidnappers. If the secret service treats kidnapping as seriously as counterfeiting, it would be bad news for kidnappers.

Being Serious and Solemn in Language
The text contrasts seriousness and solemnity, noting they are easily confused yet distinct. It argues that solemn occasions can be dumb or absurd and that ignorance prejudice and sanctimoniousness render things profoundly solemn yet devoid of true seriousness. It observes that old humbug or tradition is often solemn and only needs a nudge of thoughtful reflection to reveal triviality.
