foritv. the House of Lords will refuse ad-
mission to the new peers, on the ground
that it would be an unconstitutional inter-
ference with the independence of that
body.
Besides the novel allegation that the
House of Lords is possessed of such a
quality as independence, such declara-
tion would indicate that His Lordship has
studied and adopted many features of our
own GREAT country. In the first place the
cnueral character of the assertion shows
that he is not uDaequainted with the
game of bluff. Next his political logic
shows that the Tory leader has copied the
great party of our country which pro-
ceeds on the broad principle that any
thing which does not suit it is unconstitu-
tionaL Finally the threat OF revolu-
tionary conflict appears to be directly
copied from the example OF our recent
csmpaiqn managers whose threats made
bloodshed appear inevitable. if any one

meteoric display this year or for several
years to come. The rich part of the meteor
stream is rich because it is comparatively
compact. The earth occupies but u certain
short period in passing through this COM
pact portion OF the meteor stream, whereas
the other parts. while wanting in meteors,
have meteors strewn over them much moro
diffusely; and, as a result, the earth takes
much longer in passing through these wider
portions OF the system. 1t is, therefore, un-
likely that the passage will be completed in
will not be at all surprising If members of
the November meteor system shall be seen
this month. Whereas, in 1885, when the
earth rushed through very rich portion of
the system on the morning OF November IA,
the passage lasted so short O time that,
while England had q magnificent display or
falling stars none were seen in the United
States.
A Display in a Comets Path.
On the night of November 27, 1872, when
it was known that tho earth would pass
through the track of the comet
called Biela's, about which SO much
has been said the past day or two,
a wonderful display OF meteors was seen,
thousands being counted by European OBJ
servers while according to one account, the
above named regions of the heavens from
whence, us 1t was predicted, the meteors ra-
dated, were aglow with an amber colored
lig hit, as though illuminated by tens of thou
sands of faint meteors, too minute to be in
dividually discernibe.
In 1879. OH. November 2S q few meteors
were seen from the same part of the heavens,
and again on November q, in 1885. No doubt
can remain in any reasoning mind that the
connection OF these meteors with the comet
named after Biela has been amply estab-
lisned. We have as evidence the following
points: A comet appears whole, III 1926; re-
turns, still whole. In 1882; returns, but is not
seen, being unfnvorably situated, i'll 1883; re-
turns, still whole, in l645; but divides IN two
early in 1916, returns still double in 1852; may
or may not have returned as u double, or
perhaps multiple comet, In 1859 but would
have bean invisfbie, being unfnvornbly near

Serenity.

1t takes a great deal to disturb the
even tenor of certain well ordered and
serene minds, in illustration of which
the following incident is given:
An old lady living in a certain New
England village was going down a fight
of back stairs when she fell and went
rolling to the very bottom of the stairs,
where she burst open the door and came
rolling out into the kitchen.
Her servant girl, Jane, screamed in
afrig ut, and various members of the
family came running into the kitchen,
breathless with alarm.
Before any of them could speak a
word The old lady lifted herself to a sit
ting position on the floor and, holding
one finger up warningly and shifting at
the air, said calmly:
'Jane, them biscuits in the oven are
burning and know itr-Wide Awake.

He was just leaving the church when
