ELLIOTT, PuarasnEa .AND PROPIETO1t THURSDAY, SI•:PTI:MIIEIt 4, 1913 o 1 his own initiative, will when con - pared with the Mleigher.-:3orden rules, show that there is as much difference as there is between a schoolmarm's cas- tigation of a small boy and that which is administered by a shoot principal to a lad of mature age. The Sun might also remark that no member of any government in the his- tory of Canada, or any other country under the British constitutional system, has ever before been guilty of purloin- ing a document from the office of one of the members of its predecessors and using it for political purposes. But then Canada has never had a Bob Rogers in its federal politics before. Ai TO THE CLOSURE. (Veneouver Sur.) to the eeerse of his sp9erti a' the Co s 1v ti:e in D:nn&nion Hall last ev.•nin, , Hor. Robert Rogers, in his defenee of the itltrodu^tion of the clos- ure voles in the House of Commons last ses' ion, attempted to jeetify their introduction by statements made by Hon. Sydney Fisher and Hon, Rodolphe Lemieux in the election catnpaign of 1911, in which these gentlemen said that it was the policy of the Gnvernment, if returned to power,to introduce a closure in the Canadian House of Commons. "More than that," he said, " when we got into power, wd found in the pigeon holes of the Department of Justice a closure bill drafted by Sir Allen Ayles- worth, a ropy of which I have now much pleasure of handing to the. Sun. and which I ehallenge the Sun to publish." The Sun accepts the challenge. Here is the "bombshell." "y1r. -- moves that the following he adapted is ad.litimial rules of the House of Commons, the same to he in- serted in the rules of the Rouge of Commons, adopted ,luly 1(1, 1906, im- mediately after rule 42, to wit: "42-(a) 1. After a question has been proposed a member rising in his place may claim to move "That the question may now be put, and, unless it shall appear to the chair that such motion is an abuse of the rules of the House, or an infringement of the minority, the question, "That the question be now put', shall be put forthwith, and decided without amend- ment or debate. "2. -When the motion "That the question be now put' has been carried and the question consequent thereon has been decided, any further motion may be made (the assent of the chair, as aforesaid, not having been with- held) which maybe requisite to bring to a decision any question already proposed from the chair, such motions, shall be put forthwith, and decided without amendment or debate. "3. -Provided always, that this rule shall be put in force only when I the speaker or deputy speaker and chairman of committees referred to in rule, 13, sub -section 2 of these I rules, is in the chair. "42- (b). -Questions for the closure of debate under rules 'Closure of De- bate' shall be decided in the affirm- ative, if, when a division be taken, it appears by the numbers declared from the chair. that not less than thirty-six members voted in the majority in support of the motion." Mr. Rogers claimed that these rules were much more drastic than anything contained in the rules adopted last ses- sion, because they would have enabled any thirty-six men in the majority of the House of Commons to have "brought the Liberal guillotine into operation." But Mr. Rogers did not tell his hear- ers that this was only a draft bill; that it had never been submitted to the cab- inet; and that it had been the avowed policy of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, even when pressed to do so, during the re- ciprocity discussion, to refuse to con- sent to any limitation of debate. The records show this, and Mr. Rogers knows it; brit it suits his purpose to attempt to throw dust in the eyes of GET A HOBBY.

There chiefly I sought thee, there only I found thee; Have you a hobbo? If you haven't, you should have, for a hobby is the shortcut to health. So says a woman with a hobby, and she ought to know. The woman who broods on her troubles who broods on her poverty, who broods on her health or her wealth is likely to to suffer for it. Poor health becomes the poorer ror thinking of it. Poverty becomes the harder to bear when it is continually contrasted with somebody else's plenty. A hobby will give the mind something else to dwell on and so will avert all health -breaking worries. If you pursue a hobby faithfully it will belp you out of all your troubles. Moreover, a hobby produces results of actual money value, sometimes, or of artistic or scientific value, which is better. A woman who had always been interested in genealogical matters sud- denly realized this fact. She had gone about from graveyard to graveyard making impressionf on old tombstones; she had copied records in old churches and courthouses; she had questioned old inhabitants of all the towns she had ever visited. Her taste for ancestors gave a point to her travelling, and an interest to her life. And finally she found that she had copies of records which no one else had, and a vast col- lection of material, well sorted and classified, which was of real value. Have a hobby. Stick to it, and it will bring you happiness. Candlesticks or cook books, puppies or primrose, auything will do. Only -have a hobby. EDITORIAL NOTES. rr(I VN DIRECTORY.

Palmer, of the North Da- kota Experimental Station, Alfalfa can be expected to average at least 2 tons per acre. This is the equivalent of 120 bushels of oats. There is no land that will average :20 bushels of oats; in fact it takes good land and good handling to average 60 bushels of oats per acre. The alfalfa requires less work and less expense to handle than a grain crop. And the alfalfa will im- prove the soil while the oat crop will reduce its productive power. To get this value from alfalfa it must be fed on the farm. It needs to be kept in mind that the alfalfa is a roughage. Many people never learn the art of living, says a writer in the Outlook, because they never see the relative im- portance of duties, opportunities, and interests, and never discriminate be- tween the things on which they onght to throw the full weight of their energy and those which they ought to touch lightly in passing. In an age of intense activity and of many devices for the distribution of work, those who have discovered that living may be either a half mastered business or an art soon learn to concentrate interest and work in a few lines, and to deal with the interests to which they commit them- selves, not as hired servants, but as masters of their time and strength. people who are not acquainted with I Children Cry the facts.

When Pounced Upon by His Majesty's General, Who Cloaked His Mission in i, Mystery, the Knight of tho Shears ti Thought His Time Had Come. By special pertnission of the court authorities an amusing account is pub- lished of the circumstances attending the ordering of a military unform by the czar from a little tailor in the Crimea, I balm f Ut'h'hkess by name, who lived at Simferopol, the headquar- ters of the Crimean dragoons. When the imperial family came to LIvidal, and some days before the an- nual fete of the Crimean dragoons, the czar told the colonel that he bud in store a gift for him and the regiment - the czarina had consented to become their chief. Elis majesty added: "I shall be there when you and your of- ficers are presented to the empress and shalt wear your uniform. The only thing is. I believe I haven't the uniform of the regiment. But that doesn't matter, there is time, if you hurry, to bare one made. You seem to have an excellent tailor. Your uni- form Sts beautifully. Who made it?" The colonel gave the name of t nrlch- kess, whereupon his majesty asked biro to arrange that ICnricbkess should make a uniform for himself, adding. smiling, "Tell him to do his best and to turn it out as well as yours." There is nest given a seriocomic de- -scriptfon of the alarni oecasioned among the Ruriehkess household, con- sisting of father, mother and nine ebil- dren, when a handsome motorcar stop- ped outside their door and a cloaked general officer descended. The general said in staccato seri. tences: "You must come with me. Don't be frightened. You'll know later where I'm taking you. I can't leave without you. We've lost much Ilene already. Get dressed quickly." Tbe tailor obeyed. went with his cap- tor and was abient for four days. Mme. gurichkess was doubtful wheth- er she was a wife or a widow. Eventually the tailor turned up safe" and recounted his adventures. The drive with the general had lasted two hours and a half. During tbe whole journey the general did not address a single word to bitn. When they reach- ed their destination, Yalta, all he said was, "Khatm Eurichkess, get out and fallow me." He was assured that be need not be alarmed; he would be provided with lodging and with food, and the next day he would be told why he had been brought to Yalta and what be had to� do. He was told he need not try to• I escape, as be would be watched. His fears were dissipated when a colonel entered the room, and the "gen- eral ut generals" addressed him to the following ellect: ."Great good fortune has fatten upon you. His majesty the emperor wishes you to make for him a uniform of the Crimean dragoons. But it must be as good as that ot the colonel of the regi- ment, 1 hope you won't make a mess of it. I will take you at once to the palace, where you will be admitted to- the othe czar's study to see his majesty's) figure." When the "general of generals" took Kuricbkess to the czar's study his maj- esty was standing reading a document with his back to the door. Some Min- utes elapsed before he turned around: In the meantime Knrichkess was root- ed to the floor. ' The czar on realizing , his presence faced him and said: "05, you are here alreadyl You are ithafm Kuricbkess, the tailor. I want you to make nae a uniform of the Crimean dragoons. Do your best and see that it is a good tit. Get to work at once." Kurichkess went on to describe how God had helped him In his work and how satisfied the czar had been with the untform and thanked him for it. Kuricbkess refused to accept any- thing In payment, but "his" general 10 sisted that, according to law, he was obliged to receive 54) rubles for hitt expenses. Moreover, the general added. the tulntster of the court was aware that Kurtchkess was in debt, and he gave the tailor an entelope containing 300 rubles from the minister to charge 515 obligdtidns. Kurichkess was driven back in a motor to Simferopol, and some days later an imperial messenger brought to bis shop a case containing a gold watch and chain. The double eagle 4. Was engraved on tbe watch, which also bore the inscription, "To 'Chaim Ku- richkess for Zeal." --Argos. 1' Doctor at Dental Surgery or tae rianeylvan1N a H BOSS, D. D. 8 , L. D. S.
