RFVTJING CONGRESS-.

There are few things in the attitude Of the
American public toward the American Govern
mcnt less creditablc than the prevailing ten
dcncy to rail at Congress. The complaint OF n
former President, that he had Congress on his
hands, Is multiudinously repeated Men seem
to take 1t for granted that Congress Is doing
wrong all the time, and to think that The best
thing Congress could do would be TO adjourn
and stay adjourned for as long a time as pos
sible
But are not these diatribes against the chosen
little trcsome and good deal ridiculous? For
you cannot rub ont the fact that congressman
are representatives OF the people. Englishnen
may dcnOunce their House Of Lords with some
grace, for that body Is rot Of their making but
has been imposed upon them by preceding ages.
But Congress is exactly what the people make
It, TO find fault with IL is 10 find fault with
once or twice. But if a man keeps right on
permanently doing work that Is unsatisfactory
to himself, and never tries 10 improve II. he
simply makes a fool OF himself by railing at il.
Nor are the attacks upon Congress merely
tiresome and absurd They nre largely unjust.
No doubt Congress does now and then leave
something to be desired in It's conduct. But
there were heroes before Agamemnon There
have been Congresses before the present against
which criticisms were directed. There has been
not one that has escaped denunciation by some
one as an aggregation of all human villanies.
Aud yet somehow or other. the Nation has

A New Device.

One OF the most serious accidents
that can happen a cyclist ON the road
Is the breaking of the chain. 1t is not
exactly common occurrence for a
chain to break. but it does happen with
sufficient frequency to be constant
menace. Cautious riders carry an
extra chain link or two; but even with
them tools are needed and black
smith is not always near by. Some
riders fertile in expedients have been
known to patch up with wire well
enough to get home. The average cy-
clist is. however, absolutely crippled by
broken chain, and something should
have been devised long ago to bridge
the difficulty. AT last an inventor has
come to the rescue with a light steel
yoke, shaped like letter B. The
curved part couples the two links, the
indentation giving conformation to
the mended part that corresponds with
the rest OF the chain. A bolt passing
between the ends of the curved part
holds 1t in place.
