TJIt Rbvibw Is entered nt post office
In Portland, Oregon, ns ninil matter
of tfae second class under the Act of Con
itress ol March 3, 1879.
TRULY seat of the mighty
Woolsack In Drltlsh House of Lords
Dates Daek to the nelgn of
Kino Edward III.
In a ptaco of honor In the Ilrltlsh
liouso of lords Is a InrRo red cushion
right In front of the throne. It Is
nliout five frot long nnd two feet srjuuro
at the ends, nnd Ifi known 11s the
woolsack or historic sent of the lord
chancellor of the realm. Thin In one
of the sncrcil Ilrltlsh Institutions ltn
Installation as a sent of honor for
tho heud of the Judlclnry depnrttitent
of the government dates buck to the
time of lCdward III, when wool wnn
tho chief staple of England.
It was not, however, until the time
of Henry VIII that tho wonlwirk was
dlgnllled nnd thoroughly rBttilillsliril ns
an Institution by the following ennct
ment: "Tho lord chnncellnr, lord treiiS'
urcr nnd nil other olllcers who nIiiiII
bo under the degree of n bnron of n
parliament shall sit nnd bo plnreil si t
the uppermost pnrt of the sncks In the
midst of the parliament chamber,
either there to nit upon one form or
upon tho uppermost Knck."
Another curious circumstance Is tho
fact that tho woolsack Is regarded as
eztra-terrltorlul so far ns thu house Is
concerned. Technically, It Is outside
the precincts of thu house, ho. If thu
lord chancellor wishes to speok In de
bate ho must leave thu woolsack and
advance to his placu ns a peer.
COULDN'T PART FROM CLOCK
Kldsrly Lady's Most Cherished Posses.
Ion Had to Accompany Her on
Lono Visit.
After her children married nnd
moved away, thu woman reluctantly
sold tho house In which they bad nil
been born and brought up, and moved
Into an apartment, taking for herself
only her most cherished possessions.
Tho best beloved of nil her things
was her grandfather's clock.
Klnally her oldest daughter per
suaded her to desert her apartment for
winter and come and slay Willi her.
MI wonder that you didn't bring the
grandfather's clock!" her duughler
said, as they drove from thu Mint Inn
to the house. "Itenlly, I'm surpilHed
at you, in other."
A flush swept up thu woinnn's
cheeks. "I I did bring It," she
whispered self-consciously. "I thought
you wouldn't mind If I kept It In my
rotn. It's coming on thu next train
this ons didn't carry freight,"
For a moment the daughter looked
at her In amnicmrnt; then she threw
back her head nnd laughed,
MYou really brought It)" she do
manded Incredulously, "I might have
known I You didn't bring the sldehourd
or anything!"
Htlll btustdng, tho mother shook her
head. "Just the clock," she mild. "I
I Just couldn't bear to leave It there
II alone." New York (llobe.
