HATS IN PARLIAMENT.
They Are Important Factors I'm the Brit
ish Lower House.

They Are Important Factors In the Brit
isb Lower House.
OF all the customs and traditions that
still cling TO the house of commons,
even in this matter of fact age, the hat
PLAYS the most important part In the
last century one of the speakers permit
ted the introduction of oranges, and
even nuts. if they were not loudly crack
ed, OH the plea that they were not tan
CHILE articles of food" But, some years
after, this decision was reversed by an
other speaker, who, on high medical au-
thority, declared that as 1T would be
possible to support life on either of these
two vegetables they must be considered
tangible products, and their public con-
sumption would, therefore, not be per-
mitted. Out of this decision custom
arose, which, not being checked, slowly
deepened into a tradition. The dexterity
which Bobby Lowe exhibited in trans
ferring a packet of sandwiches from one
of the side pockets of the remarkable
coats he used to affect to the interior OF
his hat and the way in which he would
use his headgear to conceal the process
of mastication were, it is said, sights to
behold.
The occupants of the ministerial and
front opposition benches are able to
moisten their threats during the delivery
of speech with little liquid, but, al
though the private member is not OK
pressly excluded from the participation
in this privilege, no provision is made
for the consumption of any lubricant he
may require The traditions of the house
allow him TO conceal a sandwich CT a
biscuit in his pocket, but not bottle
ANY honorable member may have a
glass of water, but, while the leading
members of the opposition have the great
central table on which TO deposit their
glasses Of water-which is not supposed
TO be qualified by the introduction of
any other liquid, ahem!-the private
member is expected to hide his glass in
his hat.
1t is really astonishing what an inn
portant feature the hat plays in the de-
alterations Of our legislators. AS no pri-
vate member can claim by right any
particular seat III the house, except in q
few cases where members are tacitly al
lowed to appropriate certain points OF
vantage, hat has to be deposited be
forehand as an intimation that the seat
is secured On ordinary nights seat
can be retained by card being inserted
in the slip provided at the back Of each
seat for that purpose, but when 81 de
bate of more than usual interest is ex
pected the hat is the medium employed

Jnst q Little of the Gravy.

An OK Confederate soldier CT South

the Detroit Journal: Il had friend
who was Il chaplain in our army-a
good men, as such mon should be. Sew
eral Of his own church members were III
the same regiment. He kept sharp eye
on us, and tried 10 train rs i'll the way
we should go. And, when we were
rather short for rations, some of the
boys brought i'll fine young porker.
Now, Logs, that's wrong, said he. 1t
is simply stealing You ought not to
do it.
"'Well, our conscienccs don't trouble
US, and yours won't trouble you when
we get this meat cooked. You will want
some of it too
Ono, won't eat it I'd as soon eat
stolen meat
but we divided it up among the
boys and proceeded to cook ham in the
best possible style The smell of it fairly
made our teeth water, and when it was
cooked we were more than ready for it.
I" There's fine piece. Cut that Of
for the chaplain, said one.
"'No, thank you,' said he. L saio

"Who shall persuade coming ages,
asks q writer in the Chicago Times-Her-

harbors women who pursue whist as the
chief duty of life; who screw up their
household finances to the highest posi-

code; who meet over card tables at 8

'rbe Attorney Generals SALARY

One of the amendments TO be voted on
mkt Monday is 70 increase the salary OF
sfse attorney general, which at present is
rlEzcsd al the low figure OF $500 which
xas 6xed years ago when the State oil
Michigan was in its infancy. Ot course
eSery one knows that no professional
stzan could afford to throw up his prac-
eice acd go TO Lansing and attend to
Sise tate's business for any such sum, in
"a Raeq uence il has been the practice Tor
Ste State, at much greater expense
fSfsn So 500, to employ outside assist
snee co attend to the law business which
sss MAY be i'm gned has greatly increased
ssssee the $500 salary was fixed.
It ia now proposed to raise the attor-
nesFs salary to SO, 500, in consider ton
at which he will be required to live in

Electric Bitters is medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed when the languid, exhausted feel
ing prevails, when the liver is torpid and
sluggish and the need OF a tonic and alter
alive is felt. A prompt use OF this medi-
cine has often averted long and perhaps
az al bilious levers. No medicine will
act more surely in counteracting and
freeing the system from the malarial poi
son. Headache, indigestion, constipa-
ton, dizziness yield to Electric Bitters.
