TRADITIONS OF PARLIAMENT.
Customs Retained Long After Their
Origin is Forgotten.

The tenacity of parliamentary tradi-
tons formed the subject Of an interest
ing lecture recently by Sir Benjamin
Stone, NJ. r.. says the London Daily
Mail One instance was the oheisance
of members when they enter the house.
1t is generally supposed that the bow
is made TO the chair, but as a matter Of
fact it is made to the spot where the
altar Of st, Stephens church used to
stand. Thus the obeisance formerly
made to a Catholic shrine survived tho
Reformation, and is continued today by
members of all denominations
The red border lines of the mating Of
the floor Of the house have also their story.
During the parliamentary struggles If
the reign of Charles |. discussion some
times became so hot between members
that they looked like coming to blows.
Lines were therefore drawn down the
center Of the House within which the OPP
posing parties ware confined and thus
kept out IF one aaotheT'S reach These
lines. Which are continued in front of
the bar and form the floor Of the
House" have still an important place in
parliamentary usage.

Planting of the MistIet0e.

The story of how the mistletoe gets
on the trees is most interesting one.
Covering the mistletOe twigs are part
ly white berries. These come in the
winter season, when food is compara-
lively scarce and hence some of our
birds eat them freely. Now when a
robin eats cherry be swallows simply
the meat and iips the stone away. The
seed of the mistlotoe the bird cannot
flip. 1t is sticky and holds to the bill.
His only resource is to wipe it off, and
he does so, leaving it striking to the
branches of the tree on which he is set
ting at the time. This seed sprouts af-
ter time, and not finding earth
which indeed its ancestral habit has
made it cease wanting-it sinks its
roots into the bark of the tree and hunts
there for the pipes that carry the sap.
Now the sap in the bark is the very
richest in the tree, ar.richer than that
in the wood, and the mistletoe, gets
from it's host the choicest of food.
With strange foresight it does not
throw its leaves away, as do most par
asties, but keeps them to use in winter.
when the tree is leafess.-Ladles
