What the House of Lords I. For.

The house of lords cannot now profess
to make the laws of the nation, but it can
and does prevent vast changes being made
in the constitution by a snap vote or a
scratch majority. 1t does for the British
constitution what q written document,
unalterable except under certain special
conditions, does for other forms of govern
ment But for it the whole Of our laws
and liberties would lie at the mercy of any
man who could get control of the house Of
commons for "a hours. 1t considers all
legislation, and though in practice it sell
dom ventures to make changes it is able
to insist on a reference to the country If 1t
holds that q great and farreaching revolu-
ton is being made without the electors
being really aware Of what is happening.
In fact, it views the laws sent up to it in
the light of this question, fought this
law if not amended to be rejected until it
has been referred to the nation with the
demand, lis it your pleasure that this bill
shall become law?'"-London Spectator.

Picture of a Quaker,

Lucretia Mott, tho eminent Quaker
minister and antislavery apostle, was q
woman of raro personal charm, and while
not beautiful in the strict sense Of that
farreaching term was possessed of a face
that was little short Of it. Her brother,
Thomas Coffin, however, was not in the
least entitled to any claims Of that sort
q fact which caused him as much amuse-
ment as it did any one of his friends. He
was onco asked by a friend for his picture,
but extended little hope that the inquirer
would over get what he asked for. i.
Swell, Thomas" said tho other, "if
thee will not get one taken for mo, will thee
lot me have a copy of an old one?"
IT am afraid I cannot do that either"
replied Thomas. "The fact is that I once
did have q picture taken of myself, and it
was SO good that I destroyed it."-Har-
per's Round Table.

STRANGER THAN FICTION.
A Horse That Was Swallowed Alivs;
by a Hair From His Own Tail.

From Florida colne the following letter
from a veracious correspondent: +
"Being an ex-soldier and having only
10 months to serve to acquire a title to a
quarter section Of land, I went 20 Florida
In 1885 to put my plans into execution.
Not being posted as to the landmarks, I
had to hire a settler to locate tho land for
me, and as we had to go about eight miles
through woods over bad roads, with no
bridges, we went horseback, and in cross.
ing q stream I noticed that my friends
horses tail caught in an old Pine stump,
pulling a hair from tho tail aud leaving
the hair fast to the stump.
"As you know, o horsehair will turn to
. snake when in water, and I made up my
mind to watch that particular hair. So
after locating my land and getting a log
house built Itook my gun and started out
on q hunt, and during my rambles I came
to the stream that my friend and I had
crossed, and, sure enough, there was the
horsehair snake as big as my thumb and
over four feet long. As he was fast to the
stump I let him alone and continued my
hunt, bagging some quail, a rabbit and
two squirrels, which gave mo q good mess
Of fresh meat. As I was very busy for tho
next three weeks I had nc time to visit my
pet snake, SO you may judge of my sur
prise when on my next visit to find tho
snake as big as o stovepipe and over 40
feet long. As I was going to have a log
rolling tho next week I kept my secret so
that we could have some fun after we
were through our days work. Igot every
thing ready and sent out my invitations.
My friend that showed mo the land came
with tho rest Of them and told me that his
horse was lost or stolen. We all pitched in
and did o good days work and had a good
dinner. I told them my secret and we
went to the branch. You con imagine our
surprise when we found the snake as big
az q saw log, with q bulge in the middle
as big as q sugar barrel.
SWELL, to make u long story short, we
killed the snake and cut him open, and
my friends lost horse tunbled out. We
thought tho horse was dead until he com-
menced to move, and soon ran around all
right, and my friend rode him home. I
have heard q great deal about horsehair
snakes, and this is the only instance l
know Of where a horse was swallowed
alive by q hair from his own tail. BAL

Spruce Wood.

Spruce is not commonly accounted a
costly wood, but some Of it may DO very
valuable. Spruce is largely used for tho
tops of stringed musical instruments. such
as guitars and mandolins, the finer grained
being the more desirable. The value Of
rosewood depends upon it's color and quail
ity. 1t ranges in price from q cent and q
quarter to 10 cents q pound. Thirty grain
Adirondack spruce would be worth more
than the finest rosewood. 1t might be that
not one such log would be found among
o thous8nd.-New York Sun.

the SHEAF, decided to forego their
dinner, and set out to see the Great
Glacier, the lower end of which is a
mile and q hall away. 1t was II risky
undertaking to lie accomplished in
one hour or be- left behind. OF those
who started to run up the meander-
ing rocky path, only eight of us sue
ceeded in reaching the coveted goal,
including one lady, Miss Carrie VIE
land, of Brainerd, who had the nee
essary pluck and energy. Our stay
was very brief, but nevertheless we
r'artook' hurrietlly Of refreshments
brought along by one of the party,
and cooled our over-heated bodies
10y munching ice that was centuries
perhaps thousands of years old. We
clambered ON top OF the ice and can
therefore truthfully say that we have
stood with both feet upon asreal live
glacier, said to cover 38 square miles
and many hundred feet in thickness.
As the whole mass slowly glides down
the canyon, piles of rock and gravel
are pushed ahead, and. as the warm
er air lower down, melts the ice,
streams of cool water gush forth.
This is a verita bile battle field, in
which ice and rock, and sun are the
contest ants, an illustration OF the
great struggle that has been going
on between these forces for ages past.
But we must: hurry back to the train
and fortunately we succeed in reach
ing it just as it was pulling away.
We had missed our dinner, but we
had seen the glacier and that was a
great deal more.
Leaving Glacier the railway winds
about back and forth along the
mountain sides in Il wonderful way
IN it's effort to reach a. lower level.
The afternoon WAS spent in gazing
ut the scenery which was ever chang
ing with Kaleidoscope swiftness. At
RevelStoke we again cross the Column
bia which we had not seen for some
time. Farther ON our train skirts
for some distance an arm OF the pic
turesque Shuswap lake. We arrive
at kamIoops for supper on July
] tn. Another nj gifts ride and we
awake as our train is speeding down
the romantic valley OF the Frazer
river. This is evidently an old set
tied country as many fine gardens,
farms and farm houses are seen. At
8 o'clock a. M, July -, We arrived
in Vancouver, the western terminus
OF the. Canadian Pacific Railway.
LISP miles from Winnipeg and 2.9O6
miles from Montreal. OF our cordial
reception and exploits IN that rapid
ly growing city we must tell next
week.
