ODD WAYS OF THE COMMONS

paper During Session.

A member of the British parliament
remarks in London Opinion that the
rules of the house of commons are
past all understanding, and then pro-
ceeds to cite the case of Mr.. Pearce,
M. p, and the imminent danger IN
which he one day appeared to be. This
was when the sergeant-at-arms, with
his terrible sword in hand, rose from
his chair and rushed with cyclonic
speed in the direction of the mild,
meek and altogether unconscious-of-
offense member. 1t was quickly made
clear what was the cause of this hasty
saber charge by the sergeant. Mr.
Pearce had actually been reading a
newspaper, and there is no more helm
GUS offense known to parliament. The
members when in the chamber are not
permitted to read newspapers for any
purpose not Immediately connected
with the debate actually in progress,
though one may succeed in doing it
surreptitiously by folding the newspa-

order paper Of the day, much like a
boy may nibble at an apple in school.

spelling book. Yet more gross
breaches Of parliamentary etiquette

livering his choicest periods.

EFFECTS LAKE LEVEL.

Il is the opinion of local mariners
who have watched the stages of the
lake during the past thirty years that
the lowering of the depth of water in
all of the lakes except Superior is
caused in a great measure by the open
ing of the Chicago drainage canal, al
though reports of the government of
ficials in many instances are to the
contrary.
In the river here, the high winds
of the past week have caused raise
in the depth of the water, averaging
about two and half feet, an alter,
mating tide being in almost daily evil
dence along the water front. On Tues
day the raise in water was particular
ly apparent, the depth of water in the
river varying nearly three feet.

Many Of the dog owners contend
that the dog license ordinance is kept
in force merely to help swell the pen
sion fund of the police department and
at first thought many of the people of
the city will be inclined to agree with
them so that it may not be out Of
place at this time when the annual
collection OF the license fees is about
to begin to note the real reason why
the city has such a law on it's books
and why every city in the country
should have similar ordinance The
real reason for the existence of these
ordinances is, of course, that under
their operation the police are enabled
to destroy the vagrant animals which
roam the streets of the city constant
MANAGE to the public health. Some
time ago DR.. Mohler, chief of the
pathological division Of the brueau of
animal industry published a bulletin
through the department of agriculture
from which both the dog owners who
deny that any such disease as rabies
exists and people who have an unrea-
sonable fear of it can both learn some
thing. The doctor is an eminent
authority on all animal diseases and
while he would admit that the disease is
by no means as common as the hysteri
cal outbreaks in different parts of the
country might lead people to believe,
he does not deem the argument to
those who deny its existence of sui
fcient weight to warrant any discus
sion The existence of the disease is
a proven fact easily demonstrated He
does contend, however, that there is no
disease in all the list of communicable
diseases which can be so easily eradi-
Gated as rabies and he rightly regards
it as little less than criminal to allow
it to be spread indefinitely. His RENE
dy ard the means of doing away with
the disease entirely ultimately is sim
pie and is nothing more or less than
what all cities which have dog licenses
are doing. All that is necessary is to
destroy all vagrant dogs as is now done
under the license system Tt is his con
clusion supported by years of study
and observation that rabies never de-
velop spontaneously in well kept dogs
and that the destruction of all vagrant
dogs under the strict enforcement of
the license ordinances the disease will
finally disappear. The bulletin further
eliminates one of the principal terrors
of the disease in the public mind hy
stating that the disease is communica-
bic only from animal which has the
disease at the time the bite is
inflicted; that the bite of an animal
which does not develop the disease un-
til long time afterward is not dan
gerous.

japanese Fruit Trees.

Among the many ways of their own
that the Japanese have for doing is
their system of pruning and training
fruit trees. The system is called
"tana," and consists in training the
branches overhead on trellis work
made Of bamboo or wire supported on
wooden posts about five and a half
feet high.
This offers advantages in gathering
the fruit, and not only serves to pro-
tect the trees against wind and
storms, but is said to increase pro-
duction. Only very light pruning is
done, and that usually in the winter
time. This system is generally adopt
ed for pears and vines. less often for
apples and plums.---Youth's Compan-

The majority of the people of the

not refer to young men who have so
nearly reached the legal age that it

There are seme who contend that
the life of the grapevine is longer
than that of the oak. It is rare that
wild grapevine is found that has
died OF old age. Pliny mentions vine

Hampton Court, England, planted in
1863, while here in America there is a
wild grapevine on the shores of Mo-
bile Bay, within mile Of Daphne, Ala.

circumference at it's base. There is
a grapevine in Carpenteria, Cal, I'm.

persons may stand. It's trunk is eight
feet in diameter at the base and it has
borne as high as ten tons of fruit. 1t
is said that this vine was planted in
