THE GENIUS OF TACT.
A WORD NEATLY DESCRIBED IN THE FRENCH DICTIONARIES.
Incidents From Beal Life Showing Its Exercise in the Affairs of Men and Women—How Signe= Crispi of Italy Surprised Tactful Lord Dufferin,
“Tact” is a word most difficult to define, One of the French dictionaries describes it as ‘‘delicacy, or delicacy of judgment,” and that, in my humble opinion comes nearest to the true interpretation of the qnality. It is one which is more indispensable to everyday life than any other, the absence of which gives rise to boundless misesy, while its possession may be regarded as forming one of the principal ingredients of the happiness and welfare of humanity. Lack of tact has served to reduce to ruin many a noble and grand career, and to bring obloquy upon the most upright of characters; while its presence has served to counterbalance serious defects, and not only to successfully cloak moral short- comings, but even to render them toler- able. For tact implies kindness of heart, and to those possessing the latter we are always inclined to accord indulgence. Napoleon II11., for instance, a man whose private life was far from being above re- proach, and whose unfortunate surround- ings brought disaster upon his house and upon his country, was the most kind-heart- ed and, at the same time, the most tact- ful of men. And it was not by his statesmanship nor yet by his conduct, but solely by his extraordinary tact, that he was able to conquer the strong prejudi- ces that had been formed against him by Queen Victoria, by the late Czar and his consort, and by so many other of the reign- ing families of Europe. There are many instances that could be recounted to illus- trate his tact. But the following will prob- ably suffice: At one cf the Court balls of the Tuileries, a gallant colonel, while waltzing, lost his footing and brought both himself and his partner to the giound, ralmost at the feet of the Emperor. ‘‘Madame,” remarked the Emperor, as he assisted the lady to rise, ‘‘c’est la deuxieme fois qrs je vois tomber le Colonel, La premiere fois, c’etait sur le champ de bat- aille, a Solferino.” (It is the second time that I have seen the Colonel fall; the firat time it was on the battlefield of Solferine,) That was a piece of exquisite tact and of kindly consideration; for it was calculated to raise the Colcnel in the eyes of his fair partner and to dispel the sentiments of mortification and humiliation which he would naturally feel on account of his awkwardness. But dis- plays of tact such as this are not necessari- ly limited to speech. Sometimes the very avoidance of any utterance constitutes tact. Few people had more cause to ap- preciate this than old Baron Schaeffer, who for so many years represented Austria at Washington. The Baron, it may be remembered, returned home and handed in his resignation in consequence of a blunder which he had co;amitted here by communicating a strictly confidential dis- patch, intended for his own secret inform- ation, to the American Secretary of State. This mistake for a time seriously affected the relations between Austria and this country. Yet never a word of reproach did the old Baron receive from Count Kal- noxy, the Austrian Chancellor and Minis- ter of Foreign Affairs. ‘It was all my fault,” Baron Schaeffer used to say, in dis- cussing the matter; ‘“‘but Count Kalnoky possessed far teo exquisite a degree of tact to tell me so.”
But tact is not necessarily restricted to persons of ancient lineage, or of high breeding and of lofty rank. The seaman on the deck or the porter at the railroad station who discreetly turns away 80 as pot to appear to intrude upon our grief in parting from those near and dear to us, or upon our joy in welcoming them again, displays as much delicate tact as either Napoleon III, or Count Kalnoky ia the two instances above quoted. And where could one find more courtier-like tact than in that H-less mayor of asmal! English provincial town who, on the occasion of royalty at- tending a ball at the Mansion House in London, having received a smiling warn- ing from the Princess of Wales that her children were just recovering from the measles, and that he must therefore be- ware in dancing the quadrille with her, mponey 4 responded, with a low bow, that
e was not afraid, and that he would be delighted to take anything from ‘‘so charming s source.” Mr. Gladstone, though the most remarkable and in many respects attractive figure in contemporary English life, is lamentably deficient in tact, as was that other and almost equally popular Grand Old Man, Lord Palmerston, before him. And it is entirely owing to this de- fect in the composition of their respective characters that they never meld in hitting it off altogether with their royal mistress.
Of all tactless men, perhaps, the man most noted for this shortcoming was the late Lord Derby, who, notwithstanding his extraordinary talent, his remarkable common sense and sagacity, lived and died a soured, disappointed, misunderstood and unpopular man. Lack of tact was like- wise the distinguishing characteristic of that other clever English statesman, Lord Sherbrooke, better known as ‘‘Bob Lowe;” and it is likewise one of the drawbacks to the success of Signor Crispi, the present Italian Premier. Thus, during the silver wedding festivities at Rome a year ago, finding himself face to face with the Em- press of Gormany, who immediately re- cognized him and extended her hand in the most gracious way, he showed in such a plain manner that he had no idea who on earth she could be, and that he con- sidered her rather forward. that she was forced to mention her name before he could make up his mind to bow down and kiss the extended hand. On another oc- casion, when his groom of the chambers had just announced Lord Dufferin and thrown open the folding-doors leading into the office of the Premier, Crispi, without attempting to rise from the arm-chair in which he was lounging, contented himself with airily waving his hand to the Am- bassador and bade him a negligent good- morning, smiling pleasantly as he did so, The smile was not returned, and Lord Dufferin, with his eye-glass in his eye, stopped short on the threshold and gazed steadfastly at Crispi with an ex- pression of mingled hauteur and sur- prise. The Premier at last understood, and, jumping up in much confusion, rush- ed towards the most tactful of all Queen Victoria's Ambassadors, overwhelming him with apologies for his ‘‘uninteutional dis- courtesy.” While Emperor Francis Josepn, Queen Victoria, Queen Christina of Spain, and the Queen Regent; of Holland are re- nowned for their tact, King Leopold of Belgium, the Portuguese royalties, and particularly Emperor William are noted for the absence of this quality. Perhaps the most amusing illustration that can be given of Emperor William’s lack of tact was when, in taking leave of the Pope on

GRACEFUL AND GRACIOUS,
The Beautiful Queen of Portugal—Battle ©
of Flowers at Lisbon.
The Queen of Portugal is really a hand- some and queenly appearing woman. Our party went riding one day when as the palace was approached we were notified that her majesty was about to take her afternoon drive. Ina minute or two she appeared. She proved to be tall, gracefat
and gracious and with as attractive a face, |
person or bearing as one may easily meet on 4 throne or off it in any country, She was driving a team of four-in-hand horses and of course sat on the box seat. They were spirited and restive, but she held them firmly in control and found time to recognize us all—we were a party of over thirty—in so dving. She was kind enough to slacken her speed that we might pass her again on the road.
The inevitable photograph fiends are of course in our party, and they undertook to get a snap shot at this royal young woman, It was a piece of risky manners on their part, but it did not displease the lady. On the contrary, she smiled anew and brought her horses almost to a halt to aid their purpose. Here was a woman who was in- deed every inch a queen in person and in bearing and who held the reins of her four horses with a wrist of steel to all appear- ance. She rode in, or ratheron, a hand- some modern carriage. We aaw later the stately carriages of the monarcny for many generations.
The queen appeared a day or two later in what is known here as “the battle of the flowers.” It is the Lisbon commemo- ration ofthe end of Lent. Every one turns out in a carriage decorated with flowers and often laden with the same, which are thrown from each occupant to those in the procession sbout him, It re minds one of the coaching parades at Beth- lehein and North Conway in the way the carriages are decorated, only there are several hundreds of them and of all shapes and sizes. Every horse and turnont is made available, and every kind of decora- tion is resorted to.
One man painted his horse a bright yel low and drove him about. The flower adornments were very gay and some ot
them very tasteful. The camellia is the most plentiful flower at this season, and it is highly abundant. The queen sat in a baronche in a white silk, with heavily puffed sleeves, with an arrangement of flowers all about her, and finely decorated horses. She did not drive this time. One would have expected some enthnsiasin for so beautiful a woman, but it was not manifested, though she smiled and bowed very sweetly along the whole line. The Portuguese, I infer, are either not a happy or not a demonstrative people. In the midst of all this din and ygayety rain, which has been realized at intervals for three days, came down heavily. It must have injured many costumes, but it was borne with philosophy.—Boston Herald,
Parsimony in Feeding.
The first essential thing in stock raising is to provide an abundance of first class foods of sufficient variety, and, says the Mirror and Farmer, the next thing in im- portance is a judicious use of it Animals may be injured by overfeeding as weil as by starving. Too much food is especially dangerous if the animals are confined too strictly to a single article of diet or a one sided food. An article like corn is almost wholly composed of starch or carbon and another product may contain too large a proportion of nitrogen or phosphate, while a propery combination of these would prove
rofitable as a balanced ration, requiring a foes amount of produce to secure the same result.
A dairyman of experience says: Parsi- mony is one, and a very mean thing, and economy is another most excellent thing. They are widely different, yet it is eommon for them to be confound ed and mistaken for one another. Not unfrequently, men who think they are practicing the virtue, economy, are really guilty of the vice, parsimony. This mis- take occurs in all various walks of life, but I am to-day only interested in some forms of itin dairy practice. There is much talk in the papers and from the platform, by writers and lecturers, as to the necessity for cheapened production. Now I am painfully aware of the vise-like grip of competition on prices, and the consequent extreme difficulty of making both ends meet, but lam quite sure that the cheap ening may be over done—that in trying to cheapen production, one may injure the
roduct and seriously impair the producer.

Practiced ox His Mother's Face,
There is a barber in Jersey City who owes all the knowledge he possesses of shaving men’s faces to his mother. Rather a strange statement, isn’t it? Still it isa fact, and this is the explanation: When the barber was an apprentice in Trenton. he was of a particularly nervous, timid disposition and creaded making an attempt to shave. He was ridiculed without mercy by his shopmates, and was about to give upin despair when his mother took a hand. The boy's father had been a barber before him, and it was his dying injune- tion that his son should follow the same trade. It wasa desire to obey this behest that induced the well meaning mother to lather her own face and permit her nerv- ous boy toscrape her smooth cheeks, This he did half a dozen timesa day for two weeks, until the good old soul had such a sore face that she had to tie it up in band- ages.
They say it was an amusing, withal a pathetic spectacle, when the old lady lean- ed back inher chair and permitted her nose and mouth to be filled with soapsuds, and then to run the risk of having her throat eut or her chin hacked, but she stood it likeamartyr. The boy eventually gained sufficient confidence to slice off real beards. He would never have been a bar ber but for his mother.—New York Mail and Express.
