less provision has attracted attention
until the whole country now knows the

Q ENATORs really mustn't talk
across the floor to eacn other. or
the first they know they'll be
engaged in hzticuffs.
That's the situation OF this tariff dis
cussion. Vice President Sherman has
informed Senators that they must obey
the rule about addressing each other d.
rectlv in the second person. and Senator
Bacon, who is very long on the proprie-
ties Of debate. has appended TO this
suggestion a lecture on amenities Of the
floor.
Senators Cummins of Iowa and Smith
Of Michigan were having lively time
over the sugar schedule. Mr.. Cummins
repeatedly addressed Mr.. Smith as

would REQUIRE, 1.-The Senator" The chair
insisted that the rule be obeyed.
II trust / will be permitted to plead
innocence based on ineXperience," said
Senator Cummins,a but for the Senator

Then Senator Racon came in with his
admoiitlon. He said nothing would
conduce more TO observance of the
amenities 81 the chamber and Of debate
and a strict observance of this rule
about always using the second person.

AT LAST SOME RESPECT FOR
THE MOTHER-IN-LAW.

Stale, fat, Improbable has the
mother-in-law joke been for so long
a time that the wonder is serious
and responsible move to bury it did
not take root before.
However, it is never too late to
abate a nuisance. The joke in ques-
ton is one Of the most striking samples
of what may be called literary hash.
1t has been served so many times to
a long-suffering public that the re-
action just started viii probably be
sympathetically welcomed and support
ed in every community in the land.
Generally speaking, the mother-in law
joke shows little wit and less taste.
It's appeal is to the muddy flats of IN
telligence. To those who have had an
unfortunate experience, it must be
painful; to Others it cannot, in its
final analysis, seem anything but a
brutal, hbelous misconception of social
relationship.
Tolerance is abundant indeed when
so unwarrsGted an inhietion, as it
must seem in most cases, reached an
advanced age. Amusement purchased
. at the price of self-respect and of the
respect due others must sooner or
later prove its doubtful value. The
movement against this antiquated apol-
ogy for wit and humor was bound tc
come We are glad that this reeogni-
ton of the need of catering to the
better tastes Of the people originated
