Only a few years back an Impart - apt German fortress had to be en- ly rebuilt owing to France ob- rang extensive and valuable °natation regarding its armament and the •geograpby of the impeirt ant portion of German frontier That it guarded. And this net was made necessary owing to the rami- fications of a French WPD10,11 WbOSO ttractive personality enabled her worm these secrets from import- ant Berlin ,ofilcials in whose home she was implicitly trusted and en- tertained. Iteeently than:ding woman Who posed ns a governess was scetenced our Years' penal servitude for spying. She WaS enspleyed by two European powers, and by tiding as a governess to the ehildren of na- val officers it Paris and I3erlin she paved the way to acquaintance with. those holding responsible po- sitions. With remarkable audatity she annexed ehartis and plans and told them in the right quarters. This she found an easy task, hav- ing, in her position of governess, Ample means of learning in what part ef the house such doCUmentS were stored, and it was not until a bunch of duplicate keys of a MIDI- ber ef Admiralty safes were found in her possession that suspicion fell upon her. Every one remembers the sensa- tion several years ago- when most, complete plans of the interior of the first British Dreadnought were published in German newspapers. About this time an attractive -woe, snail of German descent disappear- ed from London's society circles, where, by reason of her charming peesonality and apparent wealth, she had been 'given a hearty wel- come. • An enquiry was held on the affair, and it was suggested that this woman probably knew a good deal about the leakage of these inaportant plans, and probably fur- ther proceedings would ha,ve been taken had not the honor of several officers of high standing in naval and society circles been involved. friend Pills," If you weak or ailing begin brace of rereirers ready far 3.0,1., to euro soareelf to -day with the mediate •use if theY should be red blood Dr. 'Williams' Pink needed.„ ahually make, If yon do not As fas Ids duties, they nro•peals find the Pills at your dealer's tend may te ea/Ivey aespetebee be, efi eents, for a, box or $1,10 for SiX e.cri the Vorcign Mace and our boxes to the Dr. Williams' Medi- us ambassadors abroad, and to eine Co,, Brockville, Ont., and they earry lettere and presents from Will be tent aiell by mail, postpaid. their Majesties to their friends and relativeat foreign Courts, Thus, on ono Journey OUr Greyhound may be the bearer of an autogyaplt let- ter /roan Eing George to his eousin, .tho Kaiser ; on the nest he may' he speeding across Ent sipe with despatches of the gra-vest im- portance, on which the issue of war or peace hangs, and for a silrlit of which Come would he a smalrfor. tune. 'Bia Many Perils. In olden times much more trivial duties fell to his let ;as when a mes- senger, who was jokingly asked by a „friend whom be had met on his journey what his bag containetloan- swered, '''Nothing more precious that the ambassador's old boots which I am faking home to be naend- ed.” Or when, on another occa- sion, a messenger was sent post- haste to Constantinople with a brace of plum -puddings to grace an ambasador's Christmas board. That these journeys do not lack excitement, Captain Windham, who has recently retired from the ser- vice, testifies. "Once," he says, "when I carried the treaty between Russia and Great Britain to this country I was shadowed all the way. On another occasion, during the riots in Rus- sia, I was told before we left that they were. afraid the railway was mined. In the middle of the night - the train stopped, and I had to • walk through the •snow in my py- jamas and an overcoat, carrying my belongings." aturally an office so romantic and responsible is much coveted, al- though, as Captain Windham says, It is one of the worst paid in his Majesty's service, with a paltry 2250 for salary. To qualify for this poor remuneration a candidate must, have powerful friends at• kis back, he must know several tongues intimately, and he must have a wide range of qualities, from strong nerves and a cool bead to the tact- fulness of an anibmesclor, and the exterior of a gentleman.

A sTRANGE TRADE. anufkketnre of Bogus Pre -Nista ie Tools and Belies. In the low country about Ely, a town 'within 12 mcs of London, Eng., there is carried on a flour- ishing industry which the world in general knows little about, This is the manufacture ,of bogus prehis- toric implements and relies. The workers at this trade are known as "knappers," or flint clippers, and they use the same tools"' and work in much the eame manner as the men, of the Neolithic age. The knapper of Ely,. says Har - per's Weekly, finds his material ready to hand in: the. extensive strata of flint lying amid the chalk beneath the surface. Shafts are sunk direct to the iloorstone, and from these burrows are made into the chalk. This mining is all clone in the most primitive fashion, as the men, for the most part, work singly, without fear of syndicates or earners. Each has his own hi.s own workshop. Quite often, though, he employs help in getting hie' wares ready for market. The claim is about a man's length and three feet wide. Generally he digs down about 35 feet, and thence in a horizontal or slanting line, as best suits his purpose. His pick is shaped like a figure seven, and he - goes down the shaft by toelioles, as- cending by the same means. His workshop,. like his mining, is also primitive, being a rude, cheap shed in his •garden the only fittings of which are a block of oak tree, trunk; rather sm,aller than a butchers block, a, set, a little stove to dry, the flint, pails ami come old- tin cans. • It might be suppesed that flint- leelse went out, of use about the close of t Revolutio n a ry- War, but these knapper,s stiiifind the steadi- est and most important branch of their industry the supplying of flints for tine old-fashioned fire - Where de these relica of bygone An-,- s go7 To male muskets. for the uWThat variety., of sweet 'cprni s this 1" asked the ,:s;liininet.
