The Boer has shipped lions from killed 1000 of the beasts within its borders.
 The directors of the Paris exposi. tion have received 16,OO0 requests for permission to erect refreshment and newspaper booths on the grounds.
 The Roebling company. of Trenton, have made a model of the Brooklyn bridge for exhibition at the Paris ex- position. The length will be 2s feet.
 Communication has been estab- lished between De Aar and Orange River. about 70 miles away, with the aid of kites and wireless telegraphy.
 The principal shell factory of the Boers was entirely destroyed recent ly by an accidental explosion. It was operated by electricity and the ma- chinery is said to have cost some $400,O0O.
 Reports from the principal manu- lecturers of candy Easter eggs. show that the output this year will be about 6O.o00, ,00O, surpassing all previ- ous records, and about 20,O00,0OO in excess of last year.
 British postal cards, which mem Der of parliament declared were ''the smallest and dearest in the world" have been enlarged to equal in size those of other European cards. One white and one buff have been issued.
 New York is the chief place where lecturers of candy Easter eggs, show time, and the revenue commissioner estimates that the government is de frauded to the extent of at least $3,- 0c0 day in this matter. The stamps most frequently cleaned are the $10 and the S1 stamps; next come the 8 and $5 denominations. It is unfor- tunate for the government that the s10 stamp is printed in black, which makes it very easy to clean.

DO1't Answer Impertinent Questions.
 Impertinent questions are to be met with firm and dignified politeness. Any question about another's personal affairs, about the price of ones cloth ing. the amount of ones earnings. the reasons one has for entirely private conduct, is impertinent. Would I an- swer such questions? Not at all. Usually by 8 little tact one can settle such questioners. If there is no other way, counsel a plain but courteous sincerity--a simple refusal to answer. One may just say: Pardon me. I prefer not to give any information whatever on this atter."-Margare E. Sangster, in Ladies' Home Journal.
