Kicking Out a OM.
' There has been frequent trouble be-
tween the Houses about their respec-
tive privileges. Edmund Burke was
once kept tor three hOure waiting at
the door of the House of Lords with
a bill. . The Commons felt the in-
dignity so sharply that the next bill
sent down by their Lordships for
consideration Wait forthwith rejected
mann° contradicente. Mr. tepeaker
tossetti it contemptuously on the floot
and honorable members then kicked
it down the straight and shot it out
between the doorposts. In these
more democratic days, there are not
A few who would most willingly ap-
ply the same expulsive force to the
hereditary House itself,

Cheering In the Hokum is also un-
der striot rule,bt thcri aro o-
casions such as the fell of a Govern-
ment, when no bonds can restrain
the pent-up feeling. This, however,
is exceptional. Members may not
Clap their hands or tramp the floor,
or wave their hats except to catch
the Speaker's eye' Neither can they
relieve . themselves by shouting:
"Bravo!" "Hurrah!" or "Go it!"
- They may cry, "Hear, 1.1ear,"-us-
. ually "Yah, Yah," -as often as they
feel inclined, although uninterrtipted
reiteration becomes obstruction and
disorder, "Oh, oh," and "No, no,"
are permissible. 'If members are very
impatient they may eall out:
'"Vide, 'vide," or if they think the
orator on his legs is wasting time
by platitudinizing they mayloudly
say, " 'Greed, 'greed." Pitched bat-
tles sometimes occur between a Stub-
• born speaker and angry members.
Usually the House prevails, but
sometimes it has to give in. The
late Professor Fawcett once began a
sentence 15 timesin response to
cries of "...Vide, 'vide," and Was at

Hear, Hear,
One rule of the British House of
Couunons nOt Infrequently leads to
ridiculous situations, One of the
most rigidly oil -tercet!, anti one over
which new meinbers are constantly
tripping, is that no member must
pass between the Speaker and the
Mentber addressing hint. If it must
be done, the unfortunate individual
who desires to make his exit most
double himself up and creeP under
the line of fire somewhat after the
Inanner adopted by Xing Lewanika
when attending service . at St.
Paul's, That dusky African poton-
tato, finding the sermon rather wea,ri.
some, stole softly from the seat and
crept on hands and knees out of the
sacred edifice, thus compensating his
lack of respect for the preacher by
a commensurate reverence for the
sanctuary.
Stealing His Tatinder.
Members are not permitted to
• read their speeches, but notes arenl-
lowed, and these admit of a very
elastic interpretation. Sir William
Harcourt, in his later years, openly
reads page after page, but the ef-
fect recalls the comment made on a
similar practice of Dr, Chalmers, •the
.greatest pulpit orator of his Ulric.
"Man, yon was fell reading." The
average speech is anything but an
artistic production. The usual prac-
tice is to write it out and commit it
to memory, Lord Rosebery tells an
amusing story of a member who had.
with great care exciogitated a Speech
from which he expected great things

picked up by a waggish brother with
. a phenomenal memory. Spotting at
once • the nature of • the, treasure
trove, the finder retired to the re-
cess of the library, and soon had it
off by heart. Returning to -the
House, he caught Mr. Speaker's eye
before that optic had lit upon • the
gifted author. • . • ,

Curious Psy2bological Study.'
He then proceeded, to •the nelight
of a number of friends Who were in
the know, .to deliver the carefully
prepared oration, and, said His Lord-
ship, it was a curious psychological:
study to watch the changing .expres-
sion on the proper • owner's counten-
ance. . First • he applauded loudly,
being delighted to find. il, speaker
agreeing so .perfectly :with hi instill, .
. but as he recognized his own haad-•
work, the smile 'faded- imperceptibly '
bite a look of is•rplexity, which, •op
doubt became eertainty, was trans- '
muted into • an expression of intense
chagrin and mortification. .Another

Classical Quotations. ,

With .the advent Of the middle class
representative the practice. gradually
died a natural death. It; is said that.
Lord John . Manners, long • a Con- .
servative member of the House, mice'
gave forth a trite Latin phrase,. and
wickedly added :that for . the benefit ,
of honorable members opposite, be

cident would be quite , in keeping .
with the man, who penned the -fam-
ous couplet: •

Ole,
But give us still our old nobility." .
1 Mr. Gladstone was the last to
make us0 of a classical quotation in
the traditionary way. In his fine
speech on the ParliamentarY Oaths
Bill, of which- Charles 13raillaugh was i
the more immediate occaltion,- he
used with great 'effect, to those' whO •
. understood, a passage from Lucre-
