A Queer Law OF Oid-TImc England and
Scotland

A Queer Law OF Old-TImc England and

By the act of Parliament OF the forty.

5th April, 1904, in England, and gath
May, 1904, in Scotland, a tax was levied
on the windows of dwelling-houses. On
a house of not more than six windows
and slylights, whether exterior or i'm
terror, under the annual rent OF five
pounds, duty was charged, annually,
Of six shillings in England and four

of five pounds and above, in England
eight shillings and in Scotland six
shillings, and so proportionately to
house of one hundred and eighty win
dows, which was charged in England
eighty-three pounds and inssSeetland
eighty-two pounds and eighteen shil-
lings. A house with above one hundred
and eighty windows was charged, both
in England and Scotland, half-a-crown
for every light. Exemptions from the
tax were: a. Any house Of the King,
or any member of the royal family; (2)
any public Office, hospital, charity
school or house provided for poor per-
sons-except the officers or servants

THE PEOPLES VERDICT.
Figures That show which Side Has the
Majority.

Figures That Show Which Side Has tho
Majority.
The Republicans in Congress claim
TO be contending for the right Of the
majority to rule. In fact, they are re-
sisting majority rule and endeAvoring
to perpetuate the power of a discredited
and meager minority.
The policy which the Senate is striv-
ing to embody in law was submitted to
the people last year. The Republicans
Of the House had adopted it. The Sem
ate, though it passed the Mckinley
tariff, declined to pass the force bill or
to adopt q gag rule. Itpermitted these
questions to go to the people. Repub-
lican conventions generally Endorsed
their party's policy. The Democratic
conventions everywhere condemned it.
The issue was squarefy joined upon the
stump and in the party press.
In November the people gave their
verdict.
1t caused the most clearly defined
and overwhelming political revolution
ever known in the history of our Gov
eminent. ss.
In the vote Of the whole county for
Representatives in Congress the Demo
cratic majoritye0ver the total Repub-
lican vote was s00,s76. In total vote
Of nearly 10, 0OO. 900 for Representatives,
the Republican candidates were in q
minority Of 1882, 202, while the regular
Democratic vote exceeded that of all
other candidates Republican, Farmers,
Prohibition, Independent and Labor

A TWILIGHT STORY.

"Auntie, will you tell storyr' said my little
niece OF three,
As the early winter twilight fell around us
silently.
So answered to her pleading: aOnce. when /
was very small, r
Withmy papa and my mamma went out ia
make call;
= And lady, pleased to see us, gave me quite a
large bouquet,
Which carried homeward proudly, smiling all
along the way.
"Soon met two other children, clad in RAGS
and sad Of face,
Who grew strangely, wildly joyous as nesred
their standing place.
Twas so good to see the fiowersi Give us one
oh, one + they cried.
But passed them without speaking; left them
100 with their wish denied
But the mem'ry Of their asking haunted me by
night and day
Give us oner heard them saying, even in my
mirthful play.
"Still mourn, because in childhood refused
to give flower
Did not make those others happy when had 1t
in my power" 81
Suddenly ceased my story. Tears were In my
niece's eyes
Tears OF tenderness and pity-while she planned
asweet surprise;
II will send flower tomorrow to those little
children DEAR z
Could tell her that their childhood had been
gone this many q year,

Fifty millions of people on three mil
lions of square miles of territory do not

A million or so of people occupying
twenty-one thousand square miles did
not constitute Greece. 1t was the Greeks
who constituted Greece; it is Americans
who constitute America. So many peo-
pie thrown together on one territory no
more make nation than so many
blocks Of stone thrown together in
pile make temple, or so many types in

tangle fabric. Every nation has its
own distinguishing features, its own
type of character, its own consciousness,
its own life. To constitute nation

that life, apd therefore life to be Elk

pRIFT on OPINION.

The Republican party has had its
day and must 60. The exigency which
called it into existence is long over.
The great party of the future in this
country is the Democratic party, and
no oppressed popular interest ever
looked to that party in vain.-New
York World.
1t is too late for the Republicans
to gain any credit by an abandonment
OF the force bill in the alleged interest
of practical and necessary legislation.
The burglar who drops his '.swag" in
the street in order to escape the officers
of the law, does not thereby purge him
self of his dishonesty. Detroit Free
Press.
Among Mr. WINDOWS last words
were: THE floating tonnage of the
United States engaged in coastwise
commerce and on our lakes and rivers
is very far in excess of that of any
other nation" Could there be more
eloquent tribute to free trade than
these last words of the dying Score
tary ?-Louisville Courier-Jo Journal.
BY the way, apropos of the defeat
of the closure rule and the force bill,
it may not be out of the way to remind
those Republican organs which lament
ed because ''the minority refused to
let "the majority" gag it that the ma
jority has conquered. Cheer mp, most
rampant organs. The force bill and
closure are dead, but your theory has
been indicated. The majority is per-
mitted to rule in this country. Chica-
go Times.
The Republ lean Senators have
formally and officially assured the
Democratic Senators that the force
bin has been permanently aban-
doned. There will now be mo-
more need of Congressional obstruc-
ton. All necessary business can be
finished by March 4. No extra session
Of the new Congress will be needed

I realized cents profit, and sold the
boxes as fast as I could hand out the
goods and make the change.
Notwithstanding the fact that I
often cleared $40 day, wanted to sell
something that was all profit One day
in Sarnia ! saw a fakir in q carriage
who talked to the people about the
anatomy of the hands and feet, and
offered his salve and liniment as cure
for every ailment, from compound
fracture Of the ankle to corns and chill
blains. From carriage sell at rs
cents and from dry-goods box or -four
barrel at 10 cents. In good weather I
travel with o gypsy wagon. My wife
dresses as Sioux princess and plays
cornet when not playing parlor organ.
In order to get my audience interested
take common newspaper, and, while
folding and tearing it into Jacobs lad
ders give them the history of paper,
showing how it is made and telling how
useful it is, from wrapping red her
ring to bearing the death warrant Of
criminal, the will Of deceased person,
the check Of the millionaire, or q mar
riage certificate. Then / give them
statistics. After this ! take this

this catches the crowd. Then l throw.
the paper down and turn the joint,
which is fakir for opening the sale. 1
must have eyes, ears and mouth open at
the same time. My wits must be alert,
so that If somebody in the crowd makes
a remark calculated to hurt my sale or
make fun of me, can reply as quickly
as a flash with something that turns
the laugh on him. He sneaks away
and my smiling but sarcastic reply
brings out a deluge OF quarters from
those who have heard the colloquy.
''Unless you have sold medicines you
would never believe what a lot of all
ments people have. Some of them
never suspect it themselves until they
have heard me talk. In an hour in
