THE HOUSE OF COMMONS
A Member May Drink There, but Is
 Not Allowed to Eat.

Member May Drink There, but Ia
 Not Allowed to Eat.
 The British house of commons has its own code in regard to the partak- ing of liquid and solid refreshments, A member making long speech may take a drink, and the house is liberal enough not to care whether the color of the contents of the glass Is white or brown or black, whether, in fact, the glass holds water or whisky or beer. Mir. Gladstone's egg fips, which his wife carefully compounded for him and he brought to the house in bot tie, are classic.
 But woe betide the man who scorns drink and must have meat. Contempo- rary recollection only recalls one mem- Der rash enough to disregard this rule. It was a number of years ago, in the stormy time of the home rule debates, that an Irish member, in the small hours of the morning, produced from his pocket paper bag and drew out a bun, which he proceeded calmly to eat. The house was instantly in an uproar. There were loud cries of "Or- Ger! Order" and that bun was never finished.
 No member may read newspaper in the house. If he had the temerity to smoke, the sergeant at arms would quickly place him under lock and key. -Appleton's Magazine.

The COncertina.

The threatened revival of the con tina as a serious musical instrument
 England would be a return to an fashion no doubt, but not to very
 one, since the concertina dates from
 early part of the last century. It's
 ention was an early indiscretion of Charles Wheatstone of telegraph lac, who took out patent for it in l9, the very year in which some |ly in Vienna invented that similar |trument, the accordion. The concer-
 was popularized by Sig. Regondi, Q had come before the public as a
 chile prodigy with the guitar. At time no London concert was real
 complete without him and his con- ! ina, and he astounded the Germans
 the music he could get out of it.

Mexican Church Legends.

Queretaro was a town before the Spanish conquest and was made city tn 1855. A legend of Queretaro is that an Otomite chief, Fernando de Tapia by name, undertook to convert the city to Christianity in a way that seems novel to us, but was common enough to his day. He came from Tula with 8 challenge to the people of Queretaro to fair stand up fight. If he won, the people surviving were to be baptized. The challenge was accepted, but while the fight was in progress dark cloud came up and the blessed Santiago was seen. in the heavens with fiery cross, whereupon the people of Queretaro gave up and were baptized. They set up a stone cross to commemorate the event on the site of the present church of Santa Cruz. There Is scarcely a church in Mexico which has not leg end of this kind attached to it.

He Earned the Hat.

Barty HilIlard, who many years ago lved In a small town in northern Yer mont, was noted for his careless vaga Dond habits ready wit and remarkable acility for extempore rhyming. While ie was sitting one day in the village tore of what Is now a part of Mont ,eller among a group of idlers the gen al merchant asked him why he wore uch a shockingly bad hat. Barty re lied that he could not afford a better ne.
 '"Come now" said the merchant, make me a rhyme on a bad hat, and l i'll give you the best have in my tore" Instantly Barty threw the old ne on the floor and began:
 Here lies my old hat,
 And pray what of that?
 It's as good as the rest of my raimentl
 If buy me a better
 You'll make me your debtor
 And send me to jail for the payment The new hat was voted to be fairly on, and Barty bore 1t off in triumph, tying, Its a poor head that can't Ike care of itself f."-Boston Herald.

No Duplicate Chandeliers.

Did you ever notice," said the ob- irving man, "that every public build 2 has chandeliers unlike those of any her public building? There are no lpllcates. You go into one church Id you see a handsome chandelier at 1t would seem worth while to du- lcate for another church, but you yer find 1t in another church. You |, into a big hall, and you'll observe
 me stunning globes and chandelier .:tures and look for lem in some other
 g hall, but they're not there. I don't tow what principle the makers of Ilandeliers go on, whether 1t Is mat Ie of pride with them not to fit out To buildings alike or whether con |lctors for such buildings insist on elusive designs, but the chandelier Ibple must employ some remarkably
 rsatile artists to think up so many Sferent designs. 1t seems like waste
 money to make only one of kind, l t 1t is a pleasure to know that hall
 home may be exclusive in it's chan y iers"

THE LAND OF ROMANCE.
Spain and the Peculiar Temperament
 of It's People.

kpatn and the Peculiar Temperament
 of It's People.
 If were asked to sum up the doml- hant impression that the survival in Spain of the old world mediaevalisnl makes, should say that Spain Is In the precise and specific sense of the word the home of romance. The spe- cial character of the Spanish tempera- ment and of Spanish developments in literature and in art is marked by 8 quality, rising and sinking with the rise and fall of Gothic, which we call the romantic spirit-a mixture, that Is, of the mysterious and grandlose with the grotesquely bizarre of the soaringly ideal with the crudely real, a mixture which to us today has the cunning fas- clnation of art, but was really on both sides the natural outcome of the ex- periences and feelings of the men who created 1t. This romantic spirit was once the common possession of all Christendom, but the Spanish tempera- ment peculiarly lent itself to the TO- mantle attitude, and 1t Is in Spain to- day that we may catch It's final vanish ing echoes. It is the church, always the most powerful stronghold of tradi- tion among any people, which enables the stranger most vividly to realize how well the romantic spirit has been preserved in Spain. Notwithstanding invasions from without and revolutions from within, especially during the early years of the last century, Spain is still the country where the mediae- val spirit of romantic devotion is most splendidly embodied and preserved Havelock Ellis in Atlantic.

Remedy For Excess In Eating.

A hint to those who may thought lessly at some time or other indulge in excess in eating. If this indiscretion is committed, especially in high sea soned things with rich sauces, a draft of cold water calculated with lemon juice will take off the sense of weight at the stomach and assist the digestive process by moderating the alimentary fermentation.

A native named Nalei had perilous
experience during the recent storm.
He was working with gang of four

rain heavily and torrent of water
poured down the mountain The men
sought shelter in an old building.
Presently the house began to tremble
and they rushed outside. The rush of
water caught Nalei and he was swept
away, the house following him.
Nalei's companions, Kukulu, Marian
and Willie rushed after him and man
aged to drag him from the stream

MISSIONARY HERALD ON
REV. DIR. H. BINGHAM

The Missionary Herald for January
contains the following: A half century
of missionary life has not burned out
the enthusiasm of DR.. Hiram Bingham,
who writes from Honolulu, October 81
.I want to tell you how great a day
gratitude. Fifty years ago today the
Prudential Committee of the American
Board appointed me as missionary,
and her who was to become my wife
nouncing the fact was written by the
Home Secretary on that day. It was
short, but to the point. You have
been duly appointed missionary OF
the American Board of Commissioners
for Foreign Missions, and designated
to the Micronesian Mission. May the
blessing of the great Shepherd prepare
you to be a blessing to many souls in
those distant isles Your friend and
brother. Do you not imagine that we
were happy mortals? How my dear
one would rejoice to celebrate this day
with me, were she still upon earth. It
is a very great joy to me to have been
for full half century under the direc-
ton of the American Board in my ef-
forts to do what I could toward win
ming this sinful world to the Lord
Jesus Christ My prayer is that I may
die with the harness on. I thank the
Board for their interest in and care for
me so many, many years."
DR.. Bingham's name recalls the SPLEEN
did history of the Sandwich Islands
Mission and what God wrought through
heroic men. A missionary board is TO
be counted truly rich that has such |
names among it's imperishabIe assets |
