He will wear any sort of a running suit you can dig him up, and so long as the shoes fit, he is not a bit par- ticular. , Not.so with Teddy Wood, the Eng lish runner.

Alfie Shrubb has a partiality for red jerseys, and blames the defeat of the Longboat-Shrubb team in the big re- lay race in Toronto this spring to the fact that the promoters compelled him and the Indiak. to wear white jerseys. At that he wore his red jer- sey underneath. Almost every fcot runner has a fav. orite pair of corks to earry, or an arti- cle of elothing he insists on wearing in all his races, and rugby playeys ap- pear year after year in the same old blood-stained mucky uniform simply because they absolutely refuse to change.

Apy time Tim Jordan has a good day at the bat he insists on sitting on the same seat at dinner as hie ccen- pied - at lunch, know Timothy's hunch and often they deliberately relay on that particular chair and keep Tim out in the hall glowering and waiting until his stom- ach,and his back bone meet, and hg is mad enough to annihilate some one, Corinthian sailors, while not as su- perstitions es their professional bre- thrén, have a few.

FORBIDDING HANSARD, ---- : Congealed Oratory Is Cosily But Rare. lv Read. Under our hand are three volumes tribution to the wisdom of the ages. Hansards are useful books, They need not be, read, but they do help to make a library look solid. The back of a Hansard; handsome in a heavy sort of way, with black and gold trim- mings, has an outward appearance of gravity and profound conceit, which may not be ' ine out by its contents, Most of the speeches talk much and say little. In the nature of things a great part of his thoughts in order to stand in with his constituents. Some people make it a mater of pride to have a complete set of Han- sard, from 1867 down to the present time. Outside of public libraries, per. haps, a score of persons in Canada may have this full record of the de. bates of Parliament. They ¢lass them for rarity and value with first editions, tall copies, and de luxe bindings. but this is probably putting tov Ligh a price on them. So far as the matter is concerned, the older the Hansard the better. The same may be said of the manner. The Fathers of Confed- etation and their contemporaries thought large thoughts and dealt with fundamental principles. They made better speeches because they had bet. fer things to talk about. It is reas. suring, however, to notice that wher. ever a great occasion arises the élo- quence of Hansard riees in proportion, The & hes on the Autanomy bills and the National Transcontinental Railway are quite equal to their most illdstrious predecessors. It is not that our public men are less, but that their opportunities have been less acter. lar.

If there is a orying baby to soothe or a cream separator to repair, Oliver can be relied upon to complete the job like a past master. it is that genius for helping folks out of difficulties that has helped to pile up his majorities. The time he sur- | passed himself was during the last] Federal campaign. Driving along a | country road one day to a Counserva- tive meeting he saw a group of Liberal | voters standing at the door of a school house, and upon inquiring the | Cause, was tola that they were ex- | pecting a Liberal speaker from a! neighboring town and could not find | whether he had started owing to a | broken telephone connection, An ex | pert lineman was at that moment try- | ng to locate' the treuble. This, hows | ever, did not bother "Oliver Wilpox He threw off his coat, rolled up his | trousers, raid borrowing a pair of 'spurs' from the linemar, "'shinned" up the pole and in ten mifiutes had | the telephone line worki ng perieet! Iy. Thus were the voters enabled to con. | nect with the Liberal headquarters | and learn that the speaker would be | there in half an hour. Of course, | the Liberal orator was in duty bound | to ridicule Wilcox the Conservative-- | but, somzhow the voters argued to | themselves that a Tory, up a pole to help his deadly enemy, | could be trusted to vote straight on | the Bill- to Emite-the-San-Jose-Scale. | "There Are Others. } Here is an actual occurrence, sent | up 'and vouched for by an elevator | man who deals in limber A farmer in SasRatchewan was paid | for the first time in his life by al check, : "What's this?' he said "Why, brass for the beasts" said the grain dealer.
