What we sce is an oblong chamber 70 feet Or 56 lotr, 45 flet broad and as many high, of dingy and faded as- pect. Opposite us is Nr. Speaker. Before him sit the three clerks of the House, arrayed in wig and gown, ' whose business it is to winute the proceedings and assist the Speaker Ofily at rare intervals does it fall to the lot of the principal clerk to emerge into prominence. But when a new Parliament meets it becomes his duty to rise and, without uttering a sound, to point his forefinger at the leader of the House, who, forthwith rises and proceeds to propose an hon- orable member for the Speakership It is the unwritten rule now so well settled as to be invariable, to re- nominate the occupant of the office in the previous Darliament This practic was followed by the Con- scrvative Government that succeeded Mr, Gladstone's Home Jule Admin istration, although Mr. Gully's elce- tion had been carried by only a small majority on a party vote It is part of the fine deference paid by Parliament to the chair and the de termination to render Myr. Speaker as far as possible independent of party influence and prejudice Gladstone's Lmplasls. In front of the clerk's table is the table of the House, sct lengthwise littered with books and papers. There is a writing desk on either side, re- garding the cbntents of which there are legends and surmises belleved to have a more substantial foundation than the usual somewhat malicious gossip Be that as it may these desks are of great value to the ora torical tub-thumpers on the front benches They Lear manifest tribute to' Mr. Gladstone's proclivities in that way by the numerous dents made by the ring which adorned that distinguished man's 6 fing Lis remarkable emphasis in driving he his points would indeed have carned for him the admiration of the Id | Scotswoman whose greatest compli ment to the efliciency of her minister was that he bad "knockit twa pu'- pits to pieces, and, dung the guts oot o' three Bibles." Well indeed might Mr, Disraeli congratulate hiu- self, as he publicly did, that so sub stantial a defence as the table of the House stood between him and his redoubtable antagonist On the table rests the mace, of which every fongrable member stands much fo awe, If by « chance that weapon was elsewhere while Mr Speaker ts in the chair, it is impos sible td say what would happen to the fabric of the Stale Before the revision of the rules, the threat that reduced a recalcitrant member to si- lence was that he should forthwith be named A too curious man asked Mr. Bpegker Denison what would oc- cur if he were to be named The Speaker looked at him end said 'The Lord only knows a remark which left the result as vaguely ter rible as before. It is the only an- swer possible to any enquiry about the properties of the mace, which, when the House is in committee, is tucked away under the table, to ro appear on the retwn of thg Speaker to the chair, The Bar of the House, From the table to the door runs a strip of cocoanut matting separat- ing two tiers of longitudinal bench es, covered with faded green leather Near the swinging glass door a broad dark piece of leather is sewn into the matting. It marks the Dar of ths House, which on occasion is furthor made visible by drawing uo thin bras rod across the passage. [rom each sido of this passage rise five benches at a slope of about Hu de- grees. Each set of tiers is bisected by a narrow staircase at right angles to the passage and known as the gangway, at the end of which, under the gallertes, are the cross benches The benches on the right of the Speaker aro occupied by the support- ers of the Goverment of the day-- s oi those on the leit by tho Opposition. The seals below the gangway, i.e! further from the Speaker, are sup- posed to be the resort of lhe in- | dependent or quasi-independeat meim- | bers, although as malbtor of fact, al truly independent member or mug- | wump is a rare and anafhema | 1 to the party whips. Opposite the | Speaker is a public gallery with the | famous clock set in the front that figured so largely in the days when Mr. Biggar of raucous famne reduc obstruction to a fine art and mi members exhaustively acqudinted with the contents of blue books which othofwise would have been buried in probably deserved oblivion. | On each side run galleries, two ben hes deep, reserved for members, | and which are technically within the | House. Right above the Speaker is the Press Gallery, and behind and above the paperstainers is the cage or Ladies' Gallery, carefully enclosed by a gilded grating. It provides ac- commodation for some three dozen ladies. During Mr. Gladstone's Par- liamentary career one corner of (it wus sacred to Mrs. Gladstone, who was uniailing in her attendance and punctilious in adorning that careless dresser with a buttonhole on. the nights of special iniportance. - i boutoniere in the G.0.M.'s lapel Es a sure sign that a gront speech was in hand. | Members Ohesk vy Jawl, What first strikes a visitor from Canada, accustomed to the wmagnifi- cent provision wade for the Federal and Provincial Legislatures, is the absolute dearth of these in the Bri ! tish lower Mouse.

The finest feature of the House is the anxious care with which all partics seck to conserve its tradi- tions and to maintain all that mak- es for the frm and fair conduct of debate, They have been greatly aid od in this by a suceession of Spenk- ers conspicuous for strength of character, clearness of judgment and an impartiality unquestionable and unquestioned.

Eaneful Habit of Bard Drinking Opposed by King Ldgur King Edgar must be cr dited with doing a noble work in the relorma tion of his subjects from the baneful habit of hard drinking.

Jt came to pass that a man would not drink with a stran- or ger until someone undertook to give a pledge for his suiety. The pledger then held up his knife or sword to | protect the person drinking. An up protected man was an easy vietfi for a foe when engaged in the act of taking a drink, Some curious note8 on this theme appear in the "History of Great Britain," by the Rev. Robert' nD Ti the Second volume, publishe d in 1774, it is stated: "if an Fng- tishiman presumed €o drink in thé pre- ' sepce of a Dane, without axpress per- niissfort, ft was esteemed a great mark of disrespect, that nothing but Nay, hey would not adventure to drink even when they were invited until the Danes had pledged their honor for their safety. The man who pledged the drinker stood hy, weapon in hand to protect him." It is generally believed that young Edward the Martyr was in 979 as- sassinated at the instigation of his false-hearted step-mother, the infa- mous Elfrida. He was stabbed in the back while drinking stirrupcup at Corfe Castle. The object of the mur- der was to place Elfrida's son on the throne Some 'writers believe that from this truvedy we derive the cus- tom of pledeing. The Gentle Veice He Menrd.

I'he crisp rustle of the leaves grows more pleasing as the brown transis tory covering deepens in the hallows and yields to the caprices of vagrant winds. Where the red maple still jest plays its foliage it is the most brit-" liant of forest trees. Every leaf has a special design in crimson, yellow, and green. Some are daintly tipped with the richest hues, others vary their brilliant reds with a tracery of pale yellow and surviving green, while others show a uniform richness of color in every vein and fibre, When the sun looks through and the wind pulls at the clinging foliage the masses of color glow and gleam in viyid intensity The oaks still cling to their rich and varied foliage, and seem scarcely to miss their generous contribution to the crisp covering on the ground.
