TOBACCO AND DIPLOMACY.
Good or Bad Cigars May Make or Mayhap
Ruin q Nation.

Ruin q Nation.
The gentleman who taught Prince Bis
marok Russian has been giving his recol-
lections of his astute pupil. One deliver
ance of his is especially noteworthy. Upon
The professor complimenting the prince
upon his cigars the latter replied; GOOD
cigars are the best friend of the diplomat.
The best dinner that ever was cooked
would leave a bad impression if followed
by bad cigars This latter statement
seems unnecessary, for surely no host wor-
tby of the name would make such an er-
ror. 1t would be indeed spelling the snip
for pound of tar" but, as regards the eu-
Iooium on tobacco, how true 1t Isl
Not only diplomats, but men of business
have cause to speak highly of it. 1t makes
intercourse easy from the first, gives the
talk friendly tone and facilitates agree
ment. Here in England this has only be-
eun to be understood. In old fashioned
houses in the city the weed is still tabooed
as being something bohemian and disre-
spectacle. But by the younger establish
ments and among the junior partners Of
the old ones its merits as lubricant are
we'll understood
When an American comes here to
is s per cent in that Englishman's favor
who offers him good cigar. 1t is of itself
an act of hospitality, and one which in
this country he will the more appreciate
from it's rarity The advantages of the
business cigar are various. 1t predisposes
the mind to agreement, avoids awkward
pauses and deprives silence of antagonism.
Instead of prolonging matters, as it
might be thought to do, it shortens them
by doing away with superfuous talk. A
man with good cigar is indisposed to
open his lips unless he has something to
say. In diplomacy can understand that
tobacco is even still more potent ally.
TO hide ones too speaking countenance in
smoke OF to puff it in the friendliest
manner in the eyes of ones antagonist
cannot but be ageous.-James Payn
