ed, permanent, and responsible. BE is,
in effect, the adjutant. He does nothing
Of any importance without instruction
from the leader, nor would the Govern
ment do anything without consulting
him. The rank and file of the party are
obedient to the whip" If Mr. Snod-
grass is making speech, it matters not
what his subject, the ''whip" asks the
leader of the party, Gladstone or Disraeli,
as the case may be, who he wants to have
speak in reply. The whip at once notifies
the person designated, and when Snod-
grass sits down no one presumes to rise
in reply unless he has been whipped"
Another duty of the whip is to see that
the members of the party are all on hand
when an important vote is to be taken, or,
as the English is, division is called. If a
member is necessarily absent, the whip
arranges, ifpossible, to pair him off with
some member of the opposition. This ar
rangement is made with the whip Of the
other party, and duly entered in the pair
book kept for that purpose.
He is paid a regular salary from fund
contributed by the Ministers and leading
clubs of the parties-Carlton and Reform.
The position is regarded an honorable
and important one. The Right Hon.
Henry William Bouverie Brand, present
Speaker Of the House of Commons, was
the Whip of the Liberal party up to the
time of his promotion to the vacancy
caused by the resignation of the Hon.
Evelyn Dennison, who resigned the
Speakership and was then made Viscount
Ossington. Mr. Brand succeeded Sir
George Hayter as Whip in 1859.

THE following ten rules, applicable to
setting hens and young chickens, are con-
tributed to the Cincinnati Times, by a
lady;
l. Never set a hen in close box; give
her plenty of room to turn about; she
will not do well if crampcd or crowded
2. Always set her on the ground, if pos
sible. The eggs will hatch best with the
nest directly on the ground.
3. Don't give a hen more than thirteen
eggs for a setting. I know fifteen is the
rule, but experience has taught me to con
slider fifteen just two too many.
4. Be careful to mark the eggs, for other
hens are apt to lay in the nest with your
setter, and unless the eggs are properly
marked you might not be able to identify
the neU eggs. You understand that eggs
laid to setting hen must be promptly re-
moved.
5. Make a record Of the time when you
set your hen, in order that you may be
looking out for the Matching.
G. Some eggs will invariably hatch a
little sooner than others. Remove the
young chicks at once, and keep them from
the hen until all are Matched. If you do
with the first corners, leaving the I'M
Matched chicks to chill and die.
Z. Don't pick at the bills Of the little
chicks in an effort to remove what some
people call the pip" 1t is all right, and
will disappear as soon as nature requires
3. Never undertake to feed your setting
hens on the nest; it is poor way Let
them come off for their food. They will
not stay off too long. Nature knows
what she is about. The eggs require about
the amount of airing they receive while
the hen is off for food.
8. See that the hens do not run about
too much while the chicks are yet young.
1t viii cause them to droop, and will
sometimes give them disease called the
"Spraddles."
10. Feed your young chicks on corn
meal mixed with pure water, and don't
mix it too wet. You want it so that it
will crumblc

. Anything to Beat the Republicans"

The Garden.Hose.

Yesterday a Park street man thought he
would use his garden-hose. In fact, this
is thought which strikes him regularly
three times a day, and his e'ghbors reck-
on he has lowered the Leicester Reservoir
eleven inches himself, since April LIST. So
he got his hose and screwed it together,
and put piece OF paper around the pipe
to keep II from leaking, and Bridget turn
ed on the water for him, and as he squirt
ed away calmly at post on the opposite
side Of the street, gratified smile rose on
his manly features, like the glow of a
pumpkin pie Just out of the oven. And
he didn't wet himself much either-only
one boot, and his false Wristbands BY
and by his wife called him in to supper,
and he left his hose squirting over the
lawn so as not to lose any time, and went
right in. His four-year-old son stayed
behind and took up the hose and began to
play at that post across the street, and
squirted the water all over Deacon Bur
chell who happened to be going by on
the nearest sidewalk. Then the Deacon
setu yell like nitro-glycerine explo-
sion, and the father came out Of his house
and went for that boy, and the fOur-year-
old calmly turned the hose full upon the
author of his being, and that man almost

and the only thing about him that was not
cool was the words that came out of his
mouth. He is now dry, but that four

The "N hip"

THE term whip" has great variety of
meanings, all derived from one root. To
the collegian it suggests the dullard who
stands at the foot of his class in point of
scholarship. To the fox-hunter it sug-

OF England, to be either extremely parsi-
monious, or an itinerant tailor, carpenter,
or the like, aud strolling from place to
place IN search of a job. Sailors have a
meaning peculiar to themselves for the

the primitive meaning as an instrument
for driving, is parliamentary.

been issued and sent to Democratic coun-
