It was Sir Ernest Cassel, the famous finan- cier and philanthropist, who has re- tired from business. Securing a situa- tion in the office of a Liverpool grain merchant. he stayed there for three years. and at the end of that time was only earning twenty-fire shillings per week. Then he went to London, entered a financial house. and. before he was thirty. had established an in tematioxml reputation as a shrewd. far-sighted and successful financier. Amongst his most important achieve ments {are the inauguration of the Central London Railway, the raising of China‘s big loan after her defeat by Japan. and th‘ negotiations for financ ing the -ule irrigation works.

ENGLISH MINERS OUT ON STRIKE When Jack Frost is present in the air, a. good face cream must be rubbed gently on the face, and then removed before soap and water are applied. The cream softens the skin, but must be thoroughly washed off so as not to leave the skin greasy and in a condi- tion to pick up quickly a new layer of dust and dirt. John Fox, the novelist, stayed over night in a cabin in the Kentucky mountains. In tho morning he repair- ed to a mountain stream, producing incidentally from his travellingâ€"case a comb and a toothbrush, and being re- garded critically by a native yOutb, who finally said:â€" “Say, rfiister, ain’t you a lot of trouble to your_s_elt?” How to Keep the Skin Proof Against the Work of Jack Frost How to keep the face clean in frosty weather is a real problem. Hot or cold water is not really efficacious un- less the face is crubbed vigorously with a coarse rag, which is certainly not advisable for a delicate skin. Soap makes the skin most uncomfortably stiff and tends to coarsen it. During the greater part of the year the face had best be washed first with warm water to remove the dirt. then with cold to close the pores of the skin. A good facial powder may be used once or twice a week, but care must be taken to find one that really agrees with the skin. in this frosty weather a good cream should be applied to the hands two or three times a day in order to keep them white and soft. At nights some cream should always be rubbed on the skin about the nails to prevent hang- nails, to prevent the epidermis from becoming stiff and hard, and dust and dirt from collecting. In winter the hands must needs be constantly washed, for the first conspicuous marks of a lady are her pretty white hands, but some lotion or cream should be applied after each washing to keep them in good condition.

No dev'aticn from the policy of re- msing to grant. any business concern exemption from school taxes was made by the Private Bills Committee. That this principle would be adhered to was plainly stated by the chairman, Hon. The Committee Makes it Clear that A” Business Concerns Must Pay School Taxes r I. B.

The ‘ AGAINST EXEMPHON SHOCK ED TO DEATH Mr. John Luck. of Brooklyn. has devised a plan to apply wave power to the propulsion of vessels crossinjz the ocean. The model of his invention, says “Science Sittings, ’ represents the hull of a vessel equipped with water tanks, fore and aft. In the centre 0: the craft is a piston rod operated b} a series of cogwheels. which furnishes motor power for the ship. Theoretical- ly the weight of water stored in the tanxs W111 be sufficient to put the machinery in motion and move Ill; ship. This force will be applied by the rise and fall of the hull. occasioned by the action of the waves. If, for in stance, a wave five feet high should strike the vessel astern. tons of force would be thrown upon the operating machinery, which would be simultan- eously affected by the suction of the receding waters in other tanks at the opposite end of the boat. .It would not, ther-‘fore, affect the power of pro- pulsion if the tides were adverse to the course of the ship. Rocking of the boat by cross currents would have no effect on the power pressure. Applying Wave Power in PropeHing Vessels Across the Atlantic The winter months at the Balloon School will further be occupied in training some 300 additional men to handle airships. so as to bring up the number of the corps to a total or 400. The “Delta” will be much larger than the two sister ships, "Beta" and “Gamma." its envelope is to be made from a new fabric which. it is said, is far superior to any other on the market. By subjecting the material to a special treatment, of which the Army experts alone know the secret. the percentage of leakage will be re- duced to an infinitesimal quantity. Reversible propellers and heavy six- cylinder engines are among the other new constructional details of the air- ship. The “Delta” is to be completed by the beginning of next spring, when the large admiralty dirigible now be- ing built at Barrow-in-Furness will also be ready for active service. A very busy time awaits the offi- cers and men of the Army Balloon School at Famborough. England. this winter. In addition to the work of testing and completely overhauling the “Clement Bayard 11..” the air corps will have ready the large as tag begun a few weeks ago for the “Gamma," and at the same time start on the construction of the "Delta," an- other air-ship which the War Office has just decided to add to the present aerial fleet.
