BRITISH POST•OFFICE. Nearly Sixty-five Tetters a Year Per Capita Received. The British Postmaster -General's annual report just issued shows that an average of nearly sixty-five let- ters a year are received per capita r.f population in the British isles. The number of postal packets of all sorts delivered was 4,972,070,000, or an average of 112.3 a person. The limerick competitions and similar semi -lottery schemes pro- ntoted by newspapers have counted for a good deal in the past year's vestal traffic. The number of pos- tal orders issued was 125,264,000, an increase of 222 per cent.. prin- cipally due to the heavy demand for sixpenny orders which people bought to pay the entrance fee for these competitions. People seem to be getting incise forgetful, as the undeliverable jackets showed an increase of over 11 per cent. They contained over $96,000 in cash and notes and $3,- 1i+3,000 in checks, money orders and ',tamps. Entirely unaddressed were 9.2,957 packets. HUMAN NATURE NOTES. Genius is often only timely talent.

SLO\1'LY. The reason of this is not want of power to go faster, but a question of feel. The difference in consumption ( f fuel between, say, twenty knots' and ten knots' speed is extraordin- ary. 'Phis is clue to the greatly in- creased resistance of the water at high speeds. For instance, a tor- pedo-boat can steam fen knots ars hour with only 110 horse -power, but to do (limbic that speed, site must use 1.1:30 horsepower. In the ease of a first-elass (•ruisser it takes five times as ninth power to drive her at twenty as it does at ten knots. And an Atlantic liner will require at least seven times as much power fur the higher as for the lower speed. In the matter of coal it is found that covering}; six- teen knots in an hntr a vessel will consume ten times as much as cov- ering eight knots. Consequently, a warship d,►ing at long voyage . at l:cr hest speed would nerd five (,r tti\ titnett as 11111('11 eoal as she would burn on the salve voyage at a low - c • speed. 1101.1, i'lt11,11'1'I:SLI) TIIII:l I:` Siht'r IIoII Mating by Clockwork, `lade Robbers Nell 011•.

Just consider for a moment your ideal o►f what a woman slieuld be, and you t: ill utast, likely find that she is net, a wiener' who does wonderful things hut one who does the graceful tittles creeds of tactful kindness. She is the woman who says the timely word of encouragement that (es Fels despair; who always has an eye tip the comfort of those about her ; whose quiet and unexpected minis- trations are like bairn to those 1.ruised by the world ; and who only asks to ututke happiness wherever she can her w hole life through. It is a big point for all of us to con- sider. So many people are apt t(, devote all their thought to the big tl.ings of life while they overlook the little kindnesses.
