Bulls In the Iri.h Commons.

There seems to have been an enor- nous quantity of bulls perpetrated in the Irish house of commons during the last years of its existence. We read that in 1795, in the course of a debate on the leather tax, the chancellor of the ex- chequer. Sir John Parnell, observed that Fin the prosecution of the present war every man ought to be ready to give his last guinea to protect the remainder" :" Mir. Vandeleur said that "however that might be, tax on leather would press heavily on the barefooted peasantry of Ireland" to which Sir Boyle Roche re- piled that this could be easily removed by making the underleathers of wood.
 Speaking in favor of the union, Sir Boyle said that one of its effects would be that the barren hills would become fertile valleys" In another debate he said, "I boldly answer in the affirmative mo-" In mentioning the Cape he de- clared that .'myrtles were so common there that they make birch brooms of them" He once mentioned some peo- pie who '.were living from hand to mouth like the birds of the air." To Sir Boyle Roche also is attributed the DOT tentous warning, "You should refrain from throwing open the foodgatee of democracy lest you should pave the way for a general conaagrANon. .".>osvn1s Years q 1siAh k3ss

Enxllsh sportinx Words In H Holl.nd.

It is interesting to note that in Holland sport has so far developed that new paper, De Athleet, well printed sheet, has made its appearance in Amsterdam. Due attention is paid to cross country athletics. and under the heading "Voet- bap prominence is given to the doings of English clubs in this country, while the matches of the Felixstowe club, which recently visited the Dutch, are very fully reported. England being the cradle of le sport, as the French say, many of the technical terms are untranslstable.
 Here are some English words in De Athleet: Cross country, interclub race, champion, partners, captain. toss. goals. backs, half backs, goalkeepers, forwards, record score, return match, half time, short passing, corners, ,pacemakers, hand icap. cricket (which is also used for wicket indiscriminately), runs, lawn ten his, hockey, country for county), pneu- matic safety's, cycle, etc. Quaint adap- tations, such as "bandy artikelen" and 'refereeschap," are to be found, and it is noteworthy that Dutch clubs are known by the names Excelsior, Quickstep, Spar ta, Go Ahead, Quick, Olympia, etc. Westminster Gazette.

Eating.

A common error of those who have to cater to the requirements of ailing peo- pie is the singular persistence with which they insist upon such people eating. Whether hungry or not, Sae should eat, is the cry. It is perfectly preposterous to advocate such theory, because the moment that peopletake into their stom- achs food that is not demanded by na- ture that moment they are paying trib- ute to dyspepsia. It is not an empty stomach that demands food, but the stimulus of the gastric juices. When the stomach gets out of order, the secre- ton of gastric juice is stopped to large extent, and to then try to force the stom- ach to work is like asking man with a broken leg to walk. He can only make stagger at 1t and is more than likely to add to his discomfort. An excellent rule is to eat only when you are hungry Washington Star.

ALife Saving Horsn.

The following circumstance occurred at the Cape of Good Hope: In one of the violent storms that often occur there a vessel was forced on the rocks and beaten to pieces. The greater part of the crew perished miserably, as no boat could ven ture to their assistance. Meanwhile a planter came from his farm to see the wreck, and knowing the spirit of his horse and his: excellence as swimmer he determined to make a desperate effort for their deliverance and pushed into the laundering breakers. At first both disappeared, but were soon seen on the surface. Nearing the wreck, he caused two of the poor seamen to cling to his boots, and so brought them safe to the shore. Seven times did he repeat this perilous feat and saved 14 lives; but alasi the eighth time. the horse being much fatigued and meeting with for midable wave, the gallant fellow lost his balance and was overwhelmed In a mo- ment. He was seen no more, but the noble horse reached the land in safety Boston Herald.

London Prejudices.

One by one some London prejudices are disappearing. By the casting vote the lord mayor, in the common council, decided on opening the loan exhibition of pictures in Guildhall on Sunday aft ernoon. The disgraceful theological feud still rages in the London school board, but public opinion may find means of suppressing even that in the course of time. Another absurdity of the statute book just now is the object of popular revolt An old law forbids the sale of any kind of food after 10 o'clock in the evening except by licensed victualers. The result is that all the victims of hum ger must patronize the saloons or higher class restaurants. The Rosebery gov- ernment may address itself to this re- form. .--Londsn Ger. New Yerk San.

 It will seem strange to the American woman, with her Declaration of Inde- pendence traditions. to hear that the di- rector of the French opera has assumed the authority to make hard and fast rule with respect to ladies' bonnets. Even small bonners are forbidden altogether for the occupants of tho pit stalls on Saturday, that being the only night when ladies are admitted to this part of the house. Formerly the stalls al the French theater were invariably reserved for men only, but one after another their rules have relaxed, until the only one where it is retained absolutely is the Theater Francalse. Ever since tho question of bonnets has been constantly nooted, but hitherto without any actual result, it be- ing so much against the habit for ladies to appear in evening dress in such places that DO one under the rank of an opera director could have ventufod on their adopting it.-~PAris Journal.
