Rectifyina an Error.

Uncle Joe Cannon, at dinner In
Washington, said of speakers errors:
"All speakers make queer errors
now and then. Usually. though, they
correct them with address.
Once, in the Illinois Legislature,
there were two men, Montague Harri-
son and Harrison Montague. The first
was very short. the second very tall;
but the speaker, during debate, once
addressed the former as the latter.
He recovered himself, however,
quickly He said. with chuckle:
1t is strange that | should take
Harrison Montague for Montague Har
rison-that should make such a mis-
take as that-for there is as great dit
| ference between you two gentlemen
as there is between horse chestnut
and a chestnut horse.

The alder bushes yonder lift
Their treasury of blossom-foam;

A song that is too sweet for speech,
And roses folding, tremulous,
