TWO EX-PREMIERS IN CABINET
Situation in British Politics That Has
Never Before Occurred Is Among
the Possibilities.
Herbert H. Asquith, former premier,
is often mentioned us a possible addl«
tlon to the present cabinet. The Man
chester Guardian points out that if this
happens Lloyd George will have two
11 former prime ministers among his sub
ordinates. There Is no former instance
■ >f this state 01' things in modern his
tory, and it Is a long time now since an
English government contained in a
j secondary place even one former pre
mier.
Tin' classical case occurred about the
j middle of last century, uud Is furulsh
; i'il iiy the gatue of see-saw which was
played l»v Lord John Itussell and Lord
; I'almerston. In the government of
!S40-rc* Lord John Kussell was prime
* miuister and Lord l'ulmerston foreign
I secretary, and iu the government of
j their two positions were ex
' actly reversed.
It' was Lord John Russell's exeep
| tional fate to be ptfme minster from
the age of tifty-four till that of sixty,
j to be In and out of subordinate office,
I under Lord Aberdeen and then under
Lord Palmerston, from sixty to seven
ty-three, and at that age to be prime
I minister again.
j If Lloyd George gets Mr. Asquith as
well as Mr. Balfour he will have all the
living former premiers except one, the
exception being Lord Rosebery, whose
period of office—15 months—was so
short as to compare with the mete
oric premiership of the age of Can
ning.

The little girl worked herself up Into
, liut form of had temper which Is gen- \
(•rally known to parents under the
jutue of "a tantrum."
But her mother did not make the
common mistake of chastising her I
while she was in that mood. She ]
called the little girl to her side ant? |
argued with her.
"Dear child," said the mother, "don't
you know that when you get yourself
Into such a state nobody loves you?"
"Dear mother," answered the child, 1
controlling herself with difficulty and
speaking through her clenched teetli :
"when I am in such a state I don't
care a darn whether anybody loves me !
or not!"—Cleveland I'laln Dealer. j

Farming In Australia.
Conditions governing agriculture in
Australia are described by Commercial
Agent Juan Horns in his report on
"Agricultural Implements and Machin
ery in Australia and New Zealand—
Special Agents' Series No. 166."
American farm tools and machinery
are well liked in Australia, but they
are not. In some instances, adapted to
the needs of the native farmer. There
would be a greater demand for Ameri
can tractors if they could be used on
ground that has not been cleared of
stumps. Many other details regard
ing the farms and their requirements
are discussed in the report
Sinister.
The latest German defense of hospi
tal bombing led Representative Tague
to remark:
"That defense Is as sinister, and It
shows conditions as rotten, as the
speech of the rich business man, who
chuckled:
"I ought to get myself a new type
writer. The paint Is all coming otf
this one. Just look here on iny
cuut."
