Members who are not officials or leaders
of a party have to come down to the Louise
several hours before it meets in order to set
good seats, and those who are not very

when something interesting happens, nave
often great difficulty to find place IN Whlcn

in other ways have to be faced by the legls-
lators of the United Kingdom, and it is mon
strous to add to these the nuisance OF not
knowing whether they will be able to take
part in comfort in the work OF parliament.
The fuss and friction caused by the dill

which all reasonable men might be expected
to agree. But though we trust that the

How He ESCAPED Trouble.

Maria he said as he entered the house,
speaking before his wife had time to say q
word, "this house is in an awful condition. !"
"Why, Henry she began.
Don't try to excuse yourself" ne inter
rupted. Look at this rooml was going
to bring friend home with me, but re-
Trained for fear the house would be just IN

"If YOU had sent word, Henry"
"Sent word, Marial Why should have
to send word2 Why should any one who
claims to be a housekeeper have to be notl-
fed so that she can scurry about and make
things look respectablef And that gown,
Martial It's outrageous to be dressed In
that fashion at this time of day."
81 could have changed it,
"Oh, of course You could have done lots
of things, but you didn't. You should be
ready to entertain your husbands friends
at any time suppose the dinner is cold
too?"
Its not so good as it was. You're late,
you know
"Ofcourse, and if had brought my friend
with me he'd have had to sit down to cold
dinner or one that was burned to a cinder,
and we should have both felt Inundated
and should have had to apologize. 1t isn't
right, Marial 1t isn't right at all"
And after he had settled himself in his
armchair after dinner he chuckled to him
self and muttered:
"Georgel but should have got roasting
for being late if hadn't started in first.

The Habit of Sleeping.

Il can sleep through anything" | heard
a man exclaiin few DAYS ago during an
argument about insomnia, 'and in my
opinion it is very largely matter of habit
The reason for my thinking that way" he
continued, sis simply this: | used TO live
in an exceedingly quiet street, where, alter
10 o'clock at night, there would scarcely
be sound until or s o'clock the next
morning So accustomed did become to
this cemeterylike stiffness that the slight
est sound would awaken me-the slam of
u door, the rattling of window, or even
voices in the street After time circum-
stances changed and found myself resid
ing near the line of an elevated railroad, SO
close to it, in fact, that the rumble Of the
trains seemed to shake the very house.
''For the first week or 10 days sleep was
almost an impossibility. 1t was to be
dreamed of only in my waking hours. Then
nature came to the rescue, asserted itself,
and slept regardless Of elevated trains. A
year went by, and concert hall was built
within stones throw of the house. That
provided an entirely different kind of noise
and it took little while before became
accustomed to it, but nowI have overcome
the effect of ii and sleep like top. Ele
waited trains may go, brass bands may rack
ct, miIkmen call and horse cars with their
tinkling bells 20 by, but they do not dis
turb my slumber. brooklyn Eagle.

No Literature OF Noses.

1t spite of the learned Slawkenbergius it
is probable that no really valuable treatise
on noses exists. A new edition of Notes
on Noses" originally published in 1913, has
been issued Such work needs the best
illustrations possible from historical por
traits The little wood cuts in Notes on
Noses" are useless For some reason the
nose is usually treated as comical and
unimportant feature. The novelist, so rich
in details about his heroine's eyes, lips,
brow, chin, ankles, hair and SO forth, never
says much about her nose. Perhaps t.Ia
most agreeable sort of female nose is name
less 1t is Greek, with more vivacity, but
moody knows what to call it. The ordi-
nary classes of noses are familiar and are
made by the mind, not the mind by the
nose according to our author. The Bar
dolphian nose, however, is created and col
ered by solid personal industry The Ro
man nose receives great credit for energy,
firmness, absence of refinement and disre-
gard of the bienseances of life."-London

Pitied the General.

She had a French gardener. Whatever
accomplishments he may have possessed in
other ways, he was rather stupid about
lawn duties. One morning his stupidity
was beyond endurance. She told him most
emphatically what she thought of him and
finished by saying:
Now. Francois, you can go. Pll not
have you another day"
He went crestfallen, to the stables, where
her husband Glanced to be. He looked at
the general thoughtfully for Il moment and
then said:
"Ah, general, Pm very sorry for you"

srANDARD QUALIFICATIONS.


The Quarterly Conference of Dover at It's
last meeting passed resolution petitionIng
the conference to make the standard Of adj
mission for candidates at least that of the
graduating class ofthe Conference Academy.
This should meet with the approval Of all
who have the interests of the church at
heart. While educational qualifications
alone should not control the admission OF
candidates; yet in this day when the
opportunities for securing good
education are within the reach of any man
who will avail himself of them it is not
practical to the church at large that
reasonable standard should not be main
tanned, and that OF the Academy is no more
than fair.
The other professions demand high
standard for admission to their ranks, and
the ministry, the highest of all calliLgs,
should at least demand the same of aspir-
ants to its rank.

THE best evidence SO far of the peace and
harmony that has reigned in the presen
session is the complaint of the reporters of
the city dailies that this is the dullest
conference they every attended They
cannot even write up the slightest ripple in
the so-far peaceful session. How different
from last session when everyone was on the
tip-toe of expectation and constantly on
the lookout for some outbreak. But things
have changed and different order now
exists. The conditions are different and
while there is slight undercurrent yet
there have been no outcroppings and no
prospect of any, which all inure to the
great benefit of the church and the general
good feeling existing.

Ernit and Health.

Lemons, grapes and tomatoes are most
valuable from medical point of view, and
If the uses of such fruits and their juices
were persevered in there is every reason to
believe that not only cancer, but many other
diseases of a similar nature with which the
skill of the surgeon and physician are un-
able to cope, might be actually cured, OF so
much alleviated as scarcely to shorten life.

THE report comes from Boston that
an outbreak is imminent on the part
of the convicts in the Massachusetts
State prison, and that the officials of
the institution are living in fear of
their lives because it is known that 75
or 100 of the prisoners have revolvers
ssereted in their cells which the officers
do not dare secure. Such an exhibit
tion of carelessness on the part of per
