THE FASHIONABLE PARLoR.

distressing Room with Its Delicate
11nts and Curious Set Expression.
The delicate tints of the average ex-
pensively furnished parlor are ant to
be colorless unless there is some relief
to them, says the New York Post. One
sees so many rooms with soft pearl
gray Wilton carpets, walls of very
much the same shade, hangings of sill
very plush, furniture largely in white
and gold, even the soft cushions of
the palest hues in costly fabrics The
curious set expression of such room.
as If it were arranged for an exhibition
parlor Of upholstery, is enhanced, usu-
ally, by the lack of any sort of CEN
ter. Every room to be successful
needs some sort of focus-an open fire.
place, reading table, anything that
suggests a drawing together of the
rooms occupants. 1t is this lack of
suggestion Of life which makes one
stroll through one of these perfectly
appointed rooms and come with a sigh
OF relief into the next apartment
which the family really use. Occa-
sionally house is entered whose mis-
tress boldly banishes the so-called
parlor, letting it be simply an extern
sion of the library. Books line it's
walls. A long table with chairs drawn
around it is piled with fresh maya
zines, the latest books, and a writing
service, All these may be as elegant
as ones purse admits, but their very
presence confers charm and effect
by their suggestion of use, that is not
found in the handsomest stretches of
and woodwork.

DAY would come when some Prime Min

say: We have resolved no longer to
support great vested interest at the
expense of the community. We have
resolved to put stop to the system
which carries with it accumulative
evils and war, pestilence and famine.

"DaaCE OF TIE STARVING.
An Odd Event Among the Poor of
Hungary.

n striking article on the agricultural
condition in hungary has Just been
published in the Neues Wiener Journal
under the title of The Dance of she
Starving" From this it appears tat
the peasants of the Alfoeld plain have
recently organized number of popular
balls, which have been attended by
thousands. This does not imply that
the people are particularly happy or
prosperous. On the contrary, owing
to the strike of last summer and the
bad harvest, their condition is one of
great need. The dances are the result
OF the bill passed in the hungarian
ieichstag for regulating the relations
between land owners and their labor
ers. That bill is regarded Us exccp-
tienaliy hostile to the latter. For the
laborers, however, liberty of speech and
OF public meeting is so restricted Us to
render all gatherings for political pur
poses practically impossible. Hence
this stratagem Of popular balls. 1t is
pointed out that the accounts of these
peasant dancing parties are Dccor1.
panied by the news of acts Of pilla~e
and IA strike against taxes, which have
rendered necessary the intervention CT
the military. The present movement is
direct consequence of the harvest
strike Of last summer, ard of the meas
ures adopted by the government to pro
vent its recurrence. The chrox'e"s
bill, according to the Neues Wiener
Journal, delivers mp the iabcrer to The
arbitrary discretion of his employer
emitting the latter to put an crd to
the agreement he has entered into. and
10 Withhold the wages he has agreed to
pay If the laborer should. in his opi--
ion, be socialist apitator If the Ia
borer. however. should fail to appear
at the time and place appointed. the
employer is empowered to call upon
the authorities to force him to carry
out his contract. Tie laborer has no
legal remedy against this proceeding.
while the employer is assured Of the
cooperation of the authorities in the
event of strike. Such Injustice as
this, as the writer remarks. might con-
vert strike very easily into rebel
