CHANGE THE DATE.
Let Inauguration Day Fall in Pleasant
Season of the Year, =sf

From the Philadelphia Inquirer
The weather in Washington Saturday
might have been a great deal worse and
could have been much better 1t was raw
and damp. but, fortunately, there was no
rain. AS rule Inauguration days have
been characterized by the worst sort of
weather, which has resulted in innumerable
numbers of cases of sickness, many deaths
and in the case of the elder Harrison, the
demise of the President himself
For one hundred years there has been an
agitation looking to a change of the date,
but nothing has been accomplished. One
bad day in four years seems to be of small
moment, though Immediately thereafter the
sentiment for reform is always urgent. It
would be necessary to pass an amendment
to the Constitution TO secure such desira-
Die end, but this Is not a difficult matter.
The very proper suggestion has been made
that April 30 be the inaugural date since
that was the day when Washington first
took office. II the coming Congress should
propose an amendment making April 80,
1909, the end of the present administration
and of Congress, it would be gratifying.
There can never be time when such
measure would be open to less objection.

OF course, there is often bad weather at
the end of April, but never SO severe as
early IA March,, ana the cHauSe WOui0 De
beneficial to all concerned. At the same
time 1t should be provided by statute that
elections, take place In October and that the
Congress then chosen should take Its seat
in the following November. Thus there
would come an immediate mandate from
the people. As at present arranged, the
Congress elected last November will not
sit IN joint session until December, unless
sooner called by the President. This ridic-
ulous system has worked III on many occa-.
sfonS, and its worst feature Is that It makes
1t impossible fer any administration to
carry out its pldfs until the term is half

but the executive, 1t is plain that there
should be a reform. An amendment to

be difficult excepf for that inertia which
has undoubtedly for. the most part made
for good In our history. but which in this
instance seems undesirable conservatism.

THE PARSON BIRD.
One of the Queer Feathered Inhabft-
ants of New Zealand.

One of the Queer Feathered Inhabft-
ants of New Zealand.
Among the feathered inhabitants of
New Zealand there is a bird called the
parson bird. or tut 1t is about the
Size and shape of blackbird, but has
a pair of delicate white tufts at its
throat and is a glossy dark green 9th
erwise, which looks black in the sun
light. It .can be taught to crow, to
speak, to whistle tunes, and besides
these tricks it has, a repertory which
is not often equaled by any other
feathered songster. At vespers it has a
note like the toll of bell or the clear
high note of an organ. 1t can mimic
every bird in the bush to perfection; it
will break off in the middle of an eX-
quisite melody and indulge in a strange
medley of sounds which are impossible
to describe, but if you can imagine 1.-THE
combination of a cough. laugh, a
sneeze. with the smashing of pane of
glass;" it will be some approach to the
idea.
The tut nests twice or thrice year
and has large families. Like the other
birds of New Zealand, it seems to be
unconscious of danger from man. 1t is
a pity that the birds Of this island are
becoming so scarce, for they speak to
us of time when nature was harm
less. when the snakes, tigers and fall
cons did not exist.

HEART DISEASE.

Don't Let the Idea That You Have Ii
Scare You Into sickness.
Comparatively few people know that
it is rare to find a perfect heartbeat.
What is termed 'palpitation" is an ir-
regularity in the beat 1t is most COM
monty caused by some disturbance of
the digestion; by undue indulgence in
tea, coffee, tobacco or alcohol; by
worry or by excitement. Many per-
sons, detecting such an irregularity
think they have some serious disease
Of the heart that may end their life at
any moment This is very grave mis-
take In double sense-frst, as to the
fact itself, and, second, as to the influ-
ence on the health Of such a morbid
idea.
Again, there is notion that heart dis
ease is a destructive process; that the
flesh is affected in much the same man
ner as when the skin is liberated or
the lungs are consumptiye. That is
very seldom true. The most serious
disorders of the heart are quite differ
emit in their nature.
When a man or woman is under the
impression that he or she has heart dis
ease there is one obvious duty-to visit
q reliable doctor, have the heart ex-
amined and either have ones fears set
at rest or be given such advice as will
serve to remedy the condition.-Home
