his head forward until his nose presses
his breast, In the meantime he Is
seized with an irresistible desire TO
blow his nose, bnt he recollects that his
handkerchief Is 10 the other room.
Then ny lights on his nose, and does

back from his neck, and with her mouth

top af hia head down his back, He
calls her attention u the Iact, but she

requires that all such questions shall
be determined IN joint convention by
a vote per capita, and that those votes
shall be counted which a majority OF
the joint convention declares legal.
This, OF course, gives the preponder'
auce Of power 10 the house, which out
numbers the senate by more than four

fer TO take their chances in a dispute
with the house. The Republicans Sc

claimed that one obscure provision of
the treaty provides for the payment of

So far as his driyel refers to the REGls-
