Mr.. Chamberlain was always dan
gerous man to cross in debate, but the
personal feeling against him was so
bitter for years after his withdrawal
many an unhappy man was driven to
tilt against his shield. 1t was delicious
to watch Mr.. Chamberlain's handling
Of the situation. He would pause when
the interruption grew serious and give
the heckler q chance to make himself
well heard. Now II you will allow

The heckler, now quite unnerved,
would stammer out something, and
Mr.. Chamberlain, listening with a ma

Like a Cat ON n Wall.

A Scotch highland minister was very
fond of commenting on each verse "A
he read 1t out. On reading the prscspt,
walk circumspectly, he said: "Ys'vs
ell seen a cat, my brethren, walking on
the top Of wall covered WI broken
bottles and bits Of glass. See hoo ie
lifts ae fit and then anither fit and hoo
slowly and carefully it puts it doom. to
keep clear of the sharp bits of glass.
And so, my brethren, in this warld O.
snares and pitfalls, we should be like
the cat on the wall-we should walk
circumspectiy."

The burglars next visited Peter II. Lud-
