Of course some of us are betttr writers than others, but there is no reason why the ordinary letter can not be cheerful, there is no good reason why the ordin- ary writer, or the poor writer can not sound a cheerful note when writing the ordinary letter. | writer of a business {and temperamentally. | business letter may { are cheerful, | feel good over Cheer .is a big thing. letter scientific meaning of the knows all The clever studies the word ; he about it--psychologically The bulk of a be purely matter- somewhere, the sound the cheerful of-fact in text, yet, clever writer will note that leaves a splendid taste in the wouth of the 1 d Yon are alw ters for some answer is that you know their letters t these writers have 1g things withomt the and--well, you just hearing from them, that's all.

CE FERRETS : {ible grip but with no less certainty of The Interlocking World| Since the rapid development of mod- || ern methods of communication and transportation the world has shrunk so that, with the people of the earth continually. growing larger one nation, be it ever so small and apparently in- significant, cannot turn over, nor squirm, nor stretch, nor jounce out an elbow without jostling other nations. Indeed, the interlocking relationships have become such a mazy network that it is not merely the adjacent nations on all sides which- are affected by movement or movements of any given nation. But if one nation progresses, if it retrogrades, if it trembles with a Sonvulsias, or expands with an effort development of any kind, all other |§ nations, nearby and remote--even to the uttermost parts of the earth--are affected. If one country were the sole produc- r source of one necessary commedi- iy and some digaster should reduce that production to nothing or wipe out tha source, when the distributed supply i other lands should become exhausted the world would be affected in bus ness and in living conditions by the famine in that one commodity. And the same principle applies t nearly all articles of trade: drought in areas in Asia has its effect on American business; a strike in England has its effects upon business in South America; legislation touching certain lines in America will mean ,much to Australia. The nations cannot live unto themselves--even in business And through other interests the same principle holds with perhaps less tang- the fact. This is a world of people of one race of humanity--an evers shir king world as measured by natural 'or invisible ties that bind the tribes of men together.

DRYDEN LODGE, Ne 417 meets at the Town very Monday night. The commonest are letters, ad not always meer business letters,' it times love-letters and othe: private communications are left be- tween the pages and forgotten, Carelessness of this kind has some- times serious results. A married wo- man wrote an indiscreet letter to a man friend and left it in a library book, which was issued again a few days later. The person who found the letter sent it anonymously to the woman's husband, and the result was a suit for divorce. On another occasion a man in a high position left in a book a sheet of paper on which he had scribbled the rough draft of an important and secret letter. Next day he came te the library in a tere state of mind to find to his 'ease relief, that ore of the librariars had found and kept the paper. He made her a handsome present. Next to, letters, hair-pins are the most usual form of book-marks. A- "mong other curiosities are a woman's Canadian | blve silk garter and a strip of human skin mounted on cardboard. Another ! was a slee of thin bread and butter. More than once notes have been 'ound used as book-marks. Most of them were comparatively valueless Ore librarian found a signed and . crossed cheque made out for a con- siderable sum. Canadian National Railway Earnings: The gross earnings of the Canadian .
