Close Co-Operation:

If there is one thing more than another to which the German war machine owes ita power to achieve it is the fall and absolute control exeraised by the Berlin War Steff." Germany is not hampered in ber purpose by independent Councila Bitting in Vienna, Constantinople and Sofa. She sent her men to leach of these contres to control the operations of her Allies in entire accord with the dictates of the War Council presided over by the Kaiser himself, and the advantages of the scheme-lop- sided, though it is in favour of Germany-have long impressed themselves on the minds of ob- servers.

Falso Economy.

In referring recently to the ler- Eons to be learnt from Japan E to the practice of thrift, now be ing so strongly inculcated at Home, we endeavoured to show that many of the ideas prevalent abroad as to Japanese thriftiness. are based on the false assumption that the Japanese manner of living arises purely from neces aity; that the small houses absence of fornitare, riod | diet, eto,, are not determined by

choice but by income. Thera an old saying that the heart dos not grieve over what the eye doe not see. The Japanese do no grieve over their limited boss rcom, or their circumscribed diet because they are not familiar will other conditions. Large foreign style rooms appear to them on comfortable; forsiga-style food though interesting, strikes ther as expensive and unsatisfying the thousand and one article of furniture in a foreign-styl house as inconvenient and annoj

ing. They prefer to sit upon th floor than to it upon a chai which makes them feel tired; an the convenience of having bed that can be rolled up and pr away in the daytime is to them a obvious that it would not be in possible to find expressions astonishment that foreigner should not have thought of sa .80 a simple expedient.
