and in the bushes world, there
would be pleasure and harmony

Nothing adds more to the
charm of life than graciousness.
Rough bluntness is never a valu-
able possession. People who are
unattractive are self-asserting,
conceited, insolent, stubborn.
They insist on having their own
way and never make concessions.
They seem to prefer fc. ce their
way through the world, making
others stand aside, and these peo-
pie very often W; IT to be liked
and they wonder why they have
lost the clew to the secret. At
tractive people are kind, consid-
crate, courteous, simple, straight
forward, generous minded. They
have the charm of teachab leness
and capacity for development,
and these are among the great
marks of character. After all,
character is an atmosphere rather
than list of qualities.
Real graciousness is a virtue
exercised, not a virtue assumed.
We have to 80 back to st. Pauls
epistles to be reminded that char
ity, which is really love. unset
fishness and which "suffereth
long and is kind" ''vaunteth not

ficiency and horse breeding.
British statesmen. since the
early ntneties, have desired to
have a cordial cooperative TN
derstanding with the United
States. The desire in England
has grown stronger gradually,
and has been taken into account
by German statesmen. They be-
lieve that the American people
would be as ready as any other
to form an alliance for a tempo
rsry object, should the need arise.
The German Government does not
expect to form an alliance with
the United States as an instru-
ment in European politics; but 1t
Is OF decisive Importance that the
United States and Great Britain
should not form a close political
understanding. Germany would,
therefore, hesitate to the last de-
gree before taking an open posi-
tive position against the United
States in China, in South or Cen
trail America, in Liberia, or In any
part OF the world The only pos
sibility of her doing so would be-
some compelling reason in Eu-
rope, and such a contingency ap-
pears beyond probability.

in the financial mobilization of
Germany. The United States is

so entirely different from what his

that he was moved to set down in
order the facts as he saw them
He writes:
The American people are in
full revolt against the domination
of capital. Far from acquiescing
in political corruption they have
become more acutely sensitive to
