Diplomatic representatives comprise ambassadors, legates or nuncios, envoys, ministers or other persons accredited to sovereigns, and charges d'affaires accredited to ministers of foreign affairs. Only the great powers send ambassadors. The diplomatic representatives of the United States are: Ambassadors extraordinary and plenipotentiary, envoys extraordinary, ministers plenipotentiary, ministers resident, charge d'affaires and special commissioners having the rank of envoy extraordinary. Ambassadors, ministers and special commissioners with the rank of envoy extraordinary are appointed by the president with the approval of the senate. Nuncios and legates are representatives of the pope.

According to the rules of the congress of Vienna, nuncios have precedence over all other diplomatic representatves. Since the fall of the temporal power, the United States sends no diplomatic representative to the Vatican, and consequently there is no nuncio or legate at F. Egan, U. S. Minister to Denmark, in Youth's Companion.

The very first day he made a suggestion which saved the firm enough to pay his salary for a year. Out in Hawaii they discovered that 10,000 acres of fine pineapple lands were useless because of too much manganese in the soil. A chemist showed the growers how to paint the leaves of the pineapple stalk with a certain iron preparation which exactly counteracts the ill effects of the manganese.

A Philadelphia chemist told how he was asked to give an expert opinion to a woolen manufacturer about the use of soap. "I saved that man $20,000 in a year," said he, "and I didn't even ask for a -it was too simple." Commercially speaking, chemists are all MacGregors-they sit at the head of the Ledger.

Today nearly every colliery was idle. Lightning Cures and Destroys. Mrs.
