A German has been wandering here and there in eastern trepical Africa taking ' telephoto photographs at lorrg range by clay of the famous genie animals And birds or catching them by flashlight in their night haunts. In a° little less than two years he has takan over 2,000 of these pictures. He has -brought to view the hidden life of many African animals, showing them just as they are in their natural envi- ronment and making plain to us many of their aspects that were never .be- fore revealed to human eyes. Over 300 o these, photographs have been re- - producedin the book he has written, which is to -day the literary sensation: !la Germany. The book is "Mit Blitz - licit and Buchse" ("With Flashlight ead Rine''), by C. G. Schillings, a Ger- man naturalist. 7 The flashlight pictures are the most eniqueand. surprising in the collec- tion. Neatly all of them were taken et the deinking places athich many ana seals v:si t in the night. When Schil- lings had selected a Raeorable spot he :;e:01 pitch his camp -some distance away, but near enough t� summon aid at the crack of his, rifle. Selecting a small epace Where the wind blew to- ward him frotri the path and water, , he would inclose it with a brush fence to screen himself from view. Here he would sit sometimes all night in the darkness or starlight; with his . flashlight all ready, match in hand and repeating rine and revolver by hie , bide. There was little or no danger in the -work. A flash, and the picture was. taken. An instant more and the ani- mals were scampering. Even the lord- ly lioa stayed not upon the order his going.

Edward German, the English dem- poser, was just a beginner, when, by a strange piece of good fortune, he obtained the commission to write the incidental MUSIC for Irving's produc- tion of 'Henry VIII." It w.as not un- til the music' was finished that Irving asked him his terms. "Your terms are mine," replied the young cbraposer. Wh.ereupon. Irving turned to 1.31.am Stoker, erh.o was stand: ing by, and asked: "How much did we pay Sullivan An Mackeniie?" Both these coneposers had reached the top of the ladder and were re- ceiving enormous prices for their com- positions. When Wring was told the Price he said to German: . "You will receive the same."

Ability to Make it Clear, Straight- forward Statement. There are many qualities necessary to success in modern buSiness life, but there is noneof more ineportance to a man holding:ia position a responsibili- ty than the power to make •a plain, straightforward, t businesslike state- ment. The qualityof fluency is not so much what itreeguired„as the quali- ties of accuracyeagal clearness, definite- ness and brevity," tact and judgment. If we are not demi and precise it is certain. that those who listen to Us will' be no more clear when we have finished than we are ourselves, proba- bly much less so. We must have no vague and 'naisty ideas about the sub- ject, but they must be crystallized and definite. These qualities of our thought and speech, however, cannot be left to chalice. They are attained as the re- sult of effort, of careful and independ- ent thought on the subject for our- selves, of looking at it from 'many points of view, and thus satisfying ourselves and, those who listen to us that we thoroughly understand what we are talking about. Having decided what to say and having properly ar- ranged it, the last point is how to say it. The first essential, is to speak dis- tinctly, then to be natural, straightfor- ward, lucid, neither to strive after ef- fect nor to exaggerate, but to give the - impression that we are ourselves con- vinced of the cogency and force of our own 1itentIon.—Technics. HIGH, LIVING. Feats of Cooking and Eating Pere. formed at Dizzy Altitudes. One of Blendin's most applauded feats was making an oraelet while ban a.ncing on his repe at a dizzy height. When crosSing Niagara he performed this. culinary exploit, which he subse- quently repeated in England in many strange situations, not the least being above the Thames, wh n he crossed more than once. • The summit of Salb ey's spire was used, as a kitchen 1655 when a • plusaber named Hendley, having sur- mounted its height of 400 feet, pro- ceeded with the utmost nonc6lance to cook an ample repast consisting o a shoulder of mutton and a couple of fowls. Again in 1762, when the same spire stood in need of repair, James Grist, to whom the job was Intrusted, cooked and ate a dish of beans and ba- con, to the astonishment of the crowd collected below. On one occasion five adventurous spirits under the leadership of a cer- tain Pierre Ronbaud, taking with them cooking utensils, scaled the spire of Bayeux cathedral. On reaching the gi- gantic gilded statue of St. -Michael, which then stood on the summit, they proceeded to cook tpelr dinner, which, they ate with great gusto, much to the amazement of the onlookers, whose health they drank at the conclUSIOn of • the feast. THE SOLDIER OF '76. He liVita Not IL Military; Figure, but Re Was Effective. is -General John Thomativas the cona- &ander of the provincial troops when they occupied South Boston. He was an intimate friend of Washington and fwas regarded as one of the best offi- cers of the little army. His. military career, however, was short, for in 1776 he died of smallpox. The post which Thomas was ordered 'to occupy was at the top of a Roxbury hill, the approach- to whieg was plain. ly visible from Boston. The general's troops consisted of only 'ZOO men, but when the army took up its position he naarched the line round and round the hill, 'multiplying many times the ap- parent size of the regiment. In some respects the scornful appella- tion of "rabble" given by the British to Thomas' division was appropriate 10 the provincial troops stationed on the hilltop. The social equality and fa- miliarity which existed at home be- tween the officers and privates con- tinued in camp. "Bill," said a eaptain to a private, "go and bring a pail of water for your mess." "I shan't," responded BBL "It's your turn now. I got the last one." The appearance of the troops was against them also from a military point of view. The soldier of '76 was a grimy figure, his head wrapped in an old bandanna handkerchief, pipe be- tween teeth, leather breeches, yarn stockings and hobnailed shoes, but it was a company of these uncouth soft- diers who fortified Dorchester heights 1tt a single night to the wonder and ad- miration of the British army. •••••••••••••••.••••••••imit taken over about January 1st.

The daily and weekly journals eagerly welcome letr . ters complaining of the increase of corpulence, the pitfalls of the split In- finitive, the prevalence of the red tie among the lower middle class, the care- lesaness of the younger generation in dotting its i's and other equally dread- ful abuses which do net matter one way or another. If one were not an incorrigible optimist one would be ha - dined to agree with the writers of these letters, who are for the most part s men of enferced leleure and idle hands, that England is rapidly about to de- cline and fall.—London World. The Transvaal Climate. One peculiarity of the Transvaal cli- mate is that while being very healthy it yet has the effect of making people appear far older than they really are. The rarefied air is popularly supposed to be responsible for this. An English;\ woman of thirty-five who has lived in' the cohntry distric for any lengthy period invariably appears tar older than she really is.
