PoRTuGALis REVOLUTION.

1t is not because the government of
Portugal has been of the type of an
absolute monarchy, as many people
seem to believe, that the present
and apparently successful revolution
against it was developed. For almost
a century. with the exception of
period of a few years immediately after
its institution, Portugal has been
constitutional monarchy. of quite as
advanced a form, almost, as that which
prevails in Great Britain. The Carta
Constitutional Of King Pedro ".
granted April 20, 1926. and amended at
various times, has been the funda-
mental law of the kingdom. The crown
has been hereditary both in the male
and female line, but with preference of
the male. The constitution recognized
four powers in the state-the legisla-
tive, executive, judicial and moderat-
ing. The last, which is equivalent to
the royal prerogative, was vested in
the sovereign. There was a legislative
body of two chambers, the Camara dos
Pares and the Camara dos Deputados.
The two were called the Cortes Geraes.
The peers, those sitting in the first
named chamber, were nominated by
the sovereign, who also nominated the
president and vice president of the
chambers of deputies, whose members
were elected from the people. To get
vote for candidates for the chamber Of
deputies one had to be at least q years
old, and pay tax of at least 500 reis,
or about so cents. or be able to read
and write. All laws relating to the
the chamber of deputies.
From this brief sketch of the system
of government that has prevailed in
Portugal it Will be seen that it was far
from having been an absolute mon
archy, although it is equally far from
being a peoples government in the
sense of the one which prevails in the
United States. It is for a more repub-
lican form of government that the
revoIutionists have striven. But the
real bone of contention between those
who have assumed the reins of govern
ment and King Manuel and his follow
ers who have been deposed appears to
have revolved around the same ques-
ton which has caused so much agita-
ton in Spain of late-the relation of
the church and the state. King Manuel
and his advisors projected a program
not long ago for a revision of the
status of the religious orders in the
country which have had great power
and influence in the affairs of govern
ment. This program did not go far
enough to suit the republican element
and the revolution resulted. It has
been smouldering for a long time, but
its sudden and unexpected appearance
may account for the decisiveness of its
success.

alarm, for he was in a difficult posi-
ton and could think of no means of
escape.
IF you cared for the girl-mere
child like that-you should have told
me-
"It was a mere trifie," stammered
Burton. 81 thought she might care for
the dog
"A mere .triae indeed broke in
Mr.. Comstock. 81 guess I know the
value of a dog as we'll as any one else.
That dog is thoroughbred, and I
know it. Don't try to fool mei'
Mr.. Comstock had worked himself
into such a state of indignation that
peared. Any explanation on Burton s
part, had he had any to make, would
have been useless, and the young man
slipped out of the room to think over
the unfortunate affair.
As Burton thought the matter over,
it occurred to him that really the
most embarrassing problem he had to
solve was concerned with Virginia and
not with Mr.. Comstock The dog for
which she had spent her boarded
birthday money was in his possession,
and she was in the meantime without
dog and. without money.
AS he could not return the dog, he
could return the money and it was
with this conviction that he counted
out five ten dollar bills from his wal
He would get it to her somehow,
though he wasn't sure how. Then a
note came from Virginia. She thanked
him again for his kindness.
''I have a great idea about the dog, "
she went on to say. eff you will keep
him I can still manage to see him.
Could you send some one out in the
park with him early before father Is
up? I will meet him there, and then
perhaps I can think of some place to
send him, where can visit him
This seemed to Burton fairly
good scheme, and as he put the fifty
dollars back into his wallet he de-
cided to conduct the dog to the park
himself the next morning.
1t was decided that for the present
at least, Burton should keep the dog
and for two weeks Virginia and the
young man arose early for a morning
stroll in the park. At first the dog
was the chief object of interest. but
in his hurry forgot the dog entirely,
Virginia did not notice the omission,

Happy Marriage Recipe.

The experience of a married couple
who have lived together for 10 years
without a quarrel possesses practical
value which outweighs any amount of
theorizing, and the reasons for the
happy union given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Levi Sherwood, who enjoy this distinc-
ton have a wide interest. I'VE just
loved each other and that was all
there was to it," says Mrs. Sherwood
But the true recipe seems to be con-
tanned in the husbands remark that
he minded his own business, while
she tended to her own affairs"
In that simple policy of noninterfer-
ence is comprised all the philosophy
not only of happy marriage, but of
harmonious human relations in the
broader sense. If the married adher-
ed to this rule, there would be little
marital discord, less divorce, and few
er cases of domestic disagreement in
the police courts The very latitude
of action which this enlightened
couple gave to each other served to
unite them more closely and to avert
the conflict of interests which causes
shipwreck. Theirs was union with
out a dictator or boss.
Matrimony, like everything else,
may suffer from too much regulation.
Cities and states suffer from it no less
than unhappy wives and the small
boy who is accounted incorrigible A
general application of the policy of
noninterference which made this a
happy marriage might remove more
serious causes of public discontent-

BROTHERS in Congre S.

Cases of two brothers serving to-
gether in congress, like Representative
George Edmund Foss, of Illinois, and
Representative Eugene N. Foss, of
Massachusetts, have been less rare
than they are generally supposed to
have been. In their instance, however,
the striking circumstance is added that
they belong to different parties, the IL
linois Foss being a Republican and the
Massachusetts, Foss a Democrat,
though only newly fledged.
In the Thirty seventh congress, which
marked Lincolns first appearance in
Washington as member of the house.
there were three brothers from the
same state. Maine was represented in
the senate by William Pitt Fessenaen,
who succeeded Salmon P. Chase IN
Lincolns cabinet as secretary of the
treasury, and in the house by Samuel
c. Fessenden and Thomas A. D. Fes-
sender. In a previous congress three
Washburns had served, but they were
from different states.
In 1S49 Senator Dodge of Wisconsin
and Senator Dodge of Iowa, father and
son, were members of the same body
The former was the first territorial
governor of Wisconsin, holding Office
from 1886 to 1S41, and from him Dodge

THE OLD PARLoR.


Within his room in former years
Perhaps some lover, overbold
Or trembling with lovers fears
The sweet old story bravely told;
From yonder window, long ago
A maiden may have looked in vain
For one who fought his country's foe,
And never would return again.
Beneath this ancient chandelier
A man and maiden may have stood,
And reverently bowed to hear
A preachers words, and deemed them
good;
Here, long ago. the first low sigh
That some fair lady'S love betrayed
May have been heard with gladness by
One who had doubted aud delayed.
And here how oft in seasons gone
May sorrow have remained a space
To keep the curtains tightly drawn
And watch a silent upturned face!
Here let no jest be lightly passed,
And let no tale be glibly told;
Here joy has been and grief has cast
The shadow that is dark and cold.
s e. Kiser, in the Chicago Record
Herald.
