An earlier derived quasi-isothermal StÄackel's model of mass distri-
bution in stellar systems and the corresponding formula for space density are
applied to our Galaxy. The model rotation curve is ¯tted to HI kinematical
data. The structural and scale parameters of the model are estimated and the
corresponding density contours for our Galaxy are presented.
