Early Schooling > Princess Mary began her schooling at the age of four, and was taught, together with her brothers, in the ltoyal .schooiroom. She had her own governesses and masters, but the in- :struction was carried out under Mr. 'Hanseil, who Was appointed tutor to all the King's children. Lessons began at 6.30 in the morn- ;ing in the Summer, and at seven in .the Winter, and the children worked Zior an hour until breakfast time. Afterwards there was a further two hours’ instruction till noon, and an- other two hours in the afternoon. Like her brothers, Princess Mary ‘was brought up to speak French and “German almost from infancy, and at eight years old she was a fair linguist, and can now express herself fluently Then she has had of~Latin.

The indirect value of such an increased market would be, of course, incalculable. I “It would not be surprising,” said Dr. Eugene Haanel, speaking at Ot- tawa, “if cobalt could be advantage- Ouely substiuted for nickel to produce a better grade of high grade steels, where toughness and hardnesa are desired; for automobile parts, steel tubes, gun steel, cranks and crank shafts, boiler plates, tires, connecting rods and axles; the nickel-iron wires with low temperature co-eflicients of electrical resistance and expansion re- spectively and the variety onimportant alloys with non-corrosive properties, for coins, boat propellers, etc.” Canada is now practically the sole "producer of cobalt ore. The cobalt content of the ores mined in the Te- miskaming district exceed 2,000,000 pounds per year. The market for this at present depends altogether on its ivory limited use as a blue coloring substance. Hence there is a large hccumulation of cobalt oxide at the smelters and at Cobalt camp. Under present industrial conditions the smel- ters refuse to pay for the cobalt and nickel content, consequently the minor receives nothing for this valuable con- stitutent of the ore. Yet cobalt re- sembles nickel in almost all its pro- perties and it is considered that it could be substituted for that metal in steel alloys. As cobalt is almost es- Sentially a Canadian product very lit- tle investigation has ever been con- ducted along this line. RIEL ‘I’ETERAN DEAD Thomas Ortlwmite.

DOT VEILS HARMFUL I W “Every dot in a woman’s veil is I'WOl'Iih five dollars to the oculist," an old member of the profession declares, "and there is no doubt. that the modern veil, with its intricate figuring and bold designs,-is far more harmful than the old time veil, which was either plain or adorned with small spots. “A closely woven network offers a considerable barrier to evaporation and the surrounding of the skin of the face with material which hinders ,the proper ventilation of the eyes and skin produces a certain amount of trouble. Thus all conditions of ec- zema or skin irritation which women complain of are due to the heated condition of the eye brought about by the veil.
