Tact is a combination of good tem- per. ready \1 it quiu kness of percep- tion and ability to take in the exigency oi! the occasion instantly. It is never offensive, but is a balm allaying sus- picion and soothing. It is appreciated It is plausible without being dishon est, apparently consults the welfare of the second party and does not mani- fest any selfishness. It is never antag- onistic. never Opposes. never strokes the hair the wrong way and never irri- tates. Tact. like a fine manner eases the way. takes the jar out of the jolts oils the bearings opens doors barred to others, sits in the drawing room when others must wait in the recep- tion hall. gets into private omces 'when others are turned down. It admits you into exclusive circles. where wealth abounds, even though poor. It secures the position when merit in turned away. Tact is a great agar.w It easily controls people. ev hen com- bined with small ability. when genius cannot get alongâ€"Leslie’s Weekly. Munchausen. Many a reader of the fi"titious ad- ventures of the famous hero of the “Munchausenaid” (which was first pub- lished in English at Oxford during the lifetime of this prince of all liars» has no conception that the hero was a real person. Baron Hieronymus Karl Fried- rich von Munchausen was a Han~ overian nobleman. a subject of the first three Georges. ’ He was born in 1720 and died in 1797. He took service in a Russian cavalry regiment. but retired in old age to his ancestral estate at Bodenwerder, in Hanover, Where he became notorious for the magnificent lies about his military adventures with which he used to entertain his neigh- bors at his hospitable board A gol- lection of these stories, entitled “Vade- mecum fur lustige Leute.” was pub- lished at Berlin in 1781 without the baron’s permission. The English work. “Baron Munchausen’s Narrative of His Marvelous Travels and Campaigns In Russia." was an expansion and imo provement of the Berlin collection. an axis more or less inclined to the earth the space at and about the axis ls rarefied. When air charged with vapor is drawn into this rarefied space It may be condensed into cloud or rain or. at a greater elevation. into snow. Now. supposing the rain formed in the lower region to be drawn up by the as tending current into the snowy region and so held for a short space. the drops Will be frozen and then. if pro- pelled beyond the gyrations. will fall to the ground as a shower or ordinary hail. But if in the descent they are again drawn in by the inflowing cur- rent they will be again carried up into the cold region and so acquire anoth- er coating of ice. In this way the globule may make a number of ascents and descents and acquire a fresh coat- ing each time.â€"-Harper’s. DENIES GUESSES ON THE NAVAL POLICY. The reports in circulation in London that Canada is repared to recommend the expen iture of six million pounds in the construc- tion of three Dreadnoughts, are unfounded.

Every German city of con- sequence has a number of pala- tial cafes. which are nothing else than huge club houses without membership formality. In any One of these cafes are hundreds of patrons ‘glancing over domestic and foreign newspapers and mag- azines. The use of motor wagons to carry parcels between London and Birmingham, England, has proved so successful that the postal au- thorities are about to make an extension of the service to Man- chester. The capitalists of France have plenty of confidence in the state railways of that prosperous coun- trv.

ITEMS OF INTEREST . am. 2‘ . kl .laiiltém fl am #33235 The Governments of the respec- tive Provinces state that fifty thousand men Will be required for this year’s harvest. These will have to be principally recruited from Ontario, and the prOSperity of Canada depends upon securing labor promptly. \ The Canadian Pacific, on which Company Wil fall practically the entire task 0 transporting the men to the West, is already making special arrangements for this year. Ex- cursions from points in Ontario to Manitoba, Saskatchewan and A1- berta, will be run. and special trains operated, making the trip in about thirty-six hours. and avoid- ing any change of cars or trans- fers. This will be a day shorter than any other route. MEN REQUIRED.
