Germans Say Wasting Men.

London, Sept. IA Post CORES
pendent, writing from a point not
given in the dispatch has seen let.
ter from a high German officer in.
valided home in which he stated:
"The war is not going quite as we
expected and the resistance of the
allied forces is extraordinary. We
are beginning to feel nervous as to
results.
"The German losses are terrible,
so terrible that the Emperor has
forbidden their disclosure. Our gen.
erals have been wantonly wasteful
with our men, who have been moved
down in thousands.
while it is impossible to say what
our losses are, | estimate them at
between $50, 900 to 100000. If they
continue at this rate we shall be quite
unable to meet Russia with any hope
of success"

His Golden Rules.

A Toronto banker hangs up these
golden rules of conduct:
Have something to say.
"Say it.
"Stop talking"
These are fine rules for special oc-
casions and places. but not for gen.

allowance for the necessities of con-
versation, nor for the helpfulness Of
intercommunication.
They recall, with their taciturn
suggestion, the golden rules that

Housing Tobacco.

The sticks of tobacco should be
hauled to the barn in a wagon fitted
with tobacco frame made so that
each end of the stick will rest on a
runner, and tobacco hang down be-
tween.
Stacking tobacco on a hay fame
or slide bruises the leaves and pre-
vents it curing properly.
Green tobacco should be hung in
the barn with the sticks eight to ten
inches apart, according to the size
of the tobacco.
The center tier of the barn should
be filled before the side tiers are be-
gun. This gives the tobacco in the
center Of the barn a chance to get
the air that would be cut off if the
side tiers we're filled first (and re-
member that Burley needs all the
air you can give it,.
When the tobacco is curing the
ventilating doors should be left open
during all the warm dry weather
AID whenever a breeze is stirring.
In rainy weather, or foggy wealth
err. the ventilators should be clost d
as tightly as possible.

Novel Opera Plan.

Richard Strauss, the composer, has
suggested plan whereby German
cities of from 10000 to $4,000 inhab
itants, in groups of three, might have
their own opera. By pooling funds
they could afford to engage a first.
class managing director at a salary OF
$12.5OO a year, who should be equipped
with sufficient funds to organize per.
manent instrumental and singing or.
ganization, to divide the period of nine
months, beginning In September and
ending in May, between the three cit.
les. The remaining three months of
the year should be devoted to vaca.
tons and rehearsal of new pieces.
Such a cooperative system would.
Strauss thinks, enable medium sized
communities all over Germany to hear
really frst-class opera which they
could consider their own enterprise,
and would also offer new opportuni.
ties for aspirants, conductors and
singers.

Originally entitled KAISER and
Company" the verses which have
made the round Of the civilized world
under the caption of ''Hoch der
Kaiser" must be credited to Mon
treal newspaper man. A. M. r.

Gregor, was on the staff Of the Mon
treal Herald when, in October, 1897.
the Kaiser made his famous speech
about the divine right of kings2 pay

He had been accustomed to spin
off occasional jung e, and when the
news broke, Give us poem, Mac"
came peremptorily from the editors
desk.
In less than an hour he turned out
the jingle that is still remembered.
Twelve verses was the total but in
making up the paper only alEht
were printed, four being left in The
galley. Later the omission was rec
tilted.
Notoriety was first given the skit
when Capt. Joseph Bullock Cogh-
Ian, native Kentuckiar and COM
mander of the Raleigh at the battle
of Manila Bay, recited alta reception
given to him and his officers at the
Union League Club, New York, the
Raleigh being the first ship to dock.
AS originally given the verses ran:
