 Your admiration is requested for the
 German postoffice. an institution which, if you have ever wrestled with its reg ulations you may regard rather with Tear and awe than. any warmer feeling Bue when you read the fascinating story of Herr B., of Berlin, you will agree that it's mnions can on occasion manifest a human sympathy, delicacy of feeling, rarely found in any department of any government.
 "rhe other day" so runs the moving tale Herr B. dispatched a telegram to a lady to say that he would await her at a certain spot in Berlin at o'clock the next evening" The message was not de- livered, because the lady was unknown at the address given: nor was it returned because Herr B., curiously enough. could
 not be found at his address. eithcr.' The department, you see, did it's best to warn him of the sad disappointment that must await, to break the news gently. But, failing in that what did Il do? Leave him to go to the appointed place and find no one? Not the German post So it provided a telegram messenger. He was given a message to explain the eff forts of the postoffice and it's mel ancholy failure Who says they do noth-
 ing better in Germany? Which of us can boast that an English telegraph mes senger ever bore us the condolences of his department?
 Hundreds of thousands of copies of little pamphlet called 'The Ten Com
 mandments" are now being sown broad cast throughout Germany. They should awaken reflection in the minds of free traders in England. The commandments are as follows:
 l. Even when you have only one pfen- nig to spend remember the interest or citizpnS pf father land.
 2 Remember that each time you buy an article made abroad you are enrich ing your enemies and robbing your own | fatherand.
 3. Your personal needs must be satis- | fled to the profit of German working mer and German merchants. l 1. Don't profane your German country, youi German home, your German work shop by allowing foreign made furni- ture. tools, or machinery to find place | therein.
 3. Do not allow foreign dishes or for eign meat on your table, for by so do- ing you harm not only your own home industries, but also your health as all
 food which the Germany sanitary com mion has not stamped is poison. 6. Write on German paper, with Ger
 man pens and German ink. 2. Buy only German clothes. s. Only German four German fruit German beer, and water from German springs can give you real German str ength
 Drink only coffee from German col
 onies.
 10. Let nobody lead you astray from this path. and be assured that your father lands future depends on your strict ob- servance of these commandments.
