DECLAMA- TIONS GO TO BAD. nen. Footprints of the Unseen Hand-- Oratorical Breaks in the House of Commons. When an honorable member, crogs« questioning. the Attorney-General for Ireland'in the House of Commons the other: day, announced his intention of - putting "@nother "question. "which dis- tinctly arises, Mr. Speaker, out of the answer which the right hon. gentleman has not given," he was merely. follow- ing in the oratorical footsteps of many a legislator who has "opened his mouth enly te put his foot in it™ But the House of Commons is far from having a monopoly of these ver-' bal eccentricities, and you will find "bulls" as fine anc plentiful outside Parliament as Westminster can show. A member of tha Queensland Legis lature once solemnly warned the House that "they would keep cutting the wool off the sheep that laid the golden egs until they pumped it dry"; but this performance was feeble compared with that of a rival West Australian law- maker who thus delivered himself: "Spurious vulgar fossildom secretly urges members to oppose this non-par- ty measure. History shows that the same kind of ruptured-brained vultures sit owl-like on the dying Hmb of the tree of reason, and by hooting and screeching attempt to impede the pro- gress of every great representative of reform who climbs to the topmost peaks of the imperishable tree of inde- structible democratic knowledge." The Times, in its obituary notice of Baron Dowse, the Irish judge, said? "A great Irishman has passed away. God grant that many of the great men whe wisely love their country may follow him"; and the Irish Times, not to be outdone, wrote thus on landslips some time ago: "To find the solid earth rock beneath his feet, to have his natural foothold on the globe's surface swept, so to speak, out of his grasp, is, to the stoutest heart of man, terrifying in the extreme." The intention of a certain orator who, at a municipal banquet, paid his tri- bute to the late Mr. Gladstone was ad- mirable; but this is what he actually said: "It was my privilege once to head him speak, and I shall never forget tha glorious oration. A shining whirlwind of words seemed to pour from his lips like a smooth-flowing stream, that, I tell you, actually flamed from his mouth in a flery speech that seemed painted before our mental eyes by the fingers of a skilful magician." It was at a meeting of the Solicitors' Apprentices' Debating Society in Dub- lin that Sir Thomas Myles, president of the Irish College of Surgeons, spoke of men who looked on the condition of things at the outbreak of the South African War "with folded arms and their hands in their pockets' Even Dr. Johnson defined a garret as "a room on the highest floor in the house," and the "cockloft" as the room over the garret'; and in a recent translation of a Continental novel we find these amazing sentences: --""The Countess was about to reply when a door opened and closed her mouth"; "The colongl paced backward and for< ward with his hands behind his back, ~-adlaz his newspiper"; anid "At this sight the negro's face grew deadly pale." "The princely eagle has got beyond his depth," wrote the editor of a Lon- don daily; the Spectator once assured its readers that "Sir Willlam Harcourt's harpoons had missed fire"; and a fa- mous English novelist, speaking in America, compared life with " a foul and stagnant river which is running in the bottom of a channel" It was an American cleric who prayed "if any spark of grace has been kindled, let that spark be watered." "AH along the untrodden paths of the past," declaimed a member of a north-country debating society, "we discern the footprints of an unseen hand"; while another member in the same debate spoke of recent bye-elec- tions as "Haystacks of straws showing which way the wind blows." At a peace meeting in Birmingham town hall a speaker referred to the Czar's Rescript as "a dove bearing the olive branch of peace which burst like a thunderbolt on the world."

The Scotchman told the story. There were two old Scotchwomen, Mrs. MacWhirter and Mrs. McBean, who met on the road one day, and Mts.

More Merry Mistakes of Pupils Record. ed by Henry J. Barker, M. A, The subject of geography often pro= vides entertaining experiences for the inspector and teacher. An inspector was questioning a class of village lads in & North country | school on the subject of English | manufactures and the towns where | they are carried on. After eliciting from the lads that the industry of | cutlery was associated with Sheffield, | that boots and shoes were made In| Lelecester and Aietriet, eto, he came to | the subject of cloth goods. to one little lad's trowsers, " he sald: -- "Now, my lad, where was that cloth made ™ | The lad, ' a little ignoramus, was! quite taken aback. and thought the! gentleman was pointing to a certain | place where his mother had done some | necessary mending. "Why, sir," he stammered, only a bit of a patch!" | 'Well, never mind," sald the in-! spector; 'tell me where the material came from?" | "Oh, sir," said the lad, "it's a bit of | clout out of my father's old breeches!" "that's 4 In a South London school the inspec- tor was trying to find out whether the boys really knew and appreciated the | which they so glibly mentioned. So he turned. to one lad, and said: -- | "Come, , mow; you've mentioned Birmingham. How far is it away?" "Don't know, sir." "Well, do you think your father could walk to it from London in one day?" "No, he couldn't." "And why not?" 'Coze he's dead, sir!" 1 Teachers should be careful in using idiomatic or colloquial expressions when addressing scholars or speaking in their presence. The little ones are apt to take what is sald too literally, as the following story will show: -- A gentleman who took an interest in the village school called in one day to have a chat with the master. Presently he noticed that the monitor or pupil teacher--a youth some sixteen years ald--was. not in his place, and he asked thé master the reason. "Oh, I've had to dismiss him," sald the master "Why." asked the visitor. "Well, to put it briefly," was the re- ply, "he got too big for his breeches." Now this remark happened to be overheard by a little dot of a girl who had just stepped in from the infants' school with a message to the master. She must have been very much im- pressed or excited by the news she had heard, for, on returning to her mis- tress, she said: -- " 'On, ma'am, I've just heard why that monitor was sent away." "Indeed," said the lady, "and why was it, dear? 'Cause his trowsers got too short for him." Unearths Roman City In England. The remains of what is believed to have been a Roman city have been dise covered by curious chance near West | Meon, Hampshire. Some weeks ago a schoolmaster nam- ed T. H. Rodley discovered -a very old and rare history of Hampshire. The volume contained a reference to a Ro- man town which had existed on the spot now known as Lippivy Wood Mr. Bodley thereupon made a thors ough examination of. the ground and | came to the conclusion the town must | have stood there. Excavations were be- gun, and it was soon proved that the schoolmaster's theory was correct About a foot below the surface of the ground, mear the roots of some large topes, the searchers unearthed three ndsome tessellated pavements such as were used to pave the atrium of a Roman house. Further digging revealed the founda- tions of a large Roman villa, which, judging by its size and shape, probab- ly belonged to the governor or centur- fon. distances between the different towns | 2 Low, damp or swampy lands in a warm, humid climate produce tea of rank, rapid growth, coarse in texture, woody fibred, rudely flavored--makes a cup heavy, murky in color, roug gh-tasting-- --it is poor tea, But the Indian and Ceylon teas used to make * the Red Rose brand are grown on the high lands of India and the mountain sides of Ceylon. : These teas are' grown in clear dry sunshine, they mature slowly, the leaves of the Ceylon teas are tender, delicate, finely flavored, but not strong. The Indian teas thus grown are full bodied, richly flavored, smooth in texture, strong. Such Indian and Ceylon teas combined in Red Rose Tea produce a cup of a rich rosy brown, strong and smooth--all the richness and strength of Indian, all the delicacy and fragrance of Ceylon teas--that "rich, fruity flavor' which belongs alone to Red * Rose Tea--more qualities of tea excellence than any Indian or brand of Ceylon alone can possess.
