The SEQUEL to a pretty love romance
came from London this week by cards
which announced the wedding of a
former Harvard student, whose father
is a millionaire, and poor girl, who
came to New England from the South to
win her way in the world as a trained
nurse.
The young man first saw the girl at
the bedside of a sick friend, fellow
Harvard man. in Boston hospital.
They loved, but obstacles beset their
path. The young student was rich, and

woman was worth waiting for, and the
Young man determined he would win
her and wait until he could make her
his wife.
The romance that thus began in Bos-
ton reached its fruition across the
seas when Stewart Henry Hartshorn,
Harvard, 'es, led to the altar Miss Mag
dalen Emily Southern of Richmond. Va,
the demure little nurse whom he first
saw in Boston, two years ago.
Young Hartshorn's home is in Short

SOLDIERS PAROLE.
In UAderstood n = Purely Voluntary
Contract During Active
SeRvlce.

Parole, ID must be understood. if
q purely voluntary compact. The cap
tor is not obliged to offer to parole
his prisoner-the prisoner is not
obliged, and cannot be compelled, tc
give his parole.
If he does SO, he will probably be
released on pledging his word not to
serve during the existing war. If he
refuses he will remain captive until
the war is over or until he can make
his escape.
The usual parole pledge extends
onfy to active service against the en-
emy. A prisoner released on parole
is not breaking his contract if he
drills recruits, quells civil commo-
tions or fights other enemies.
A soldier taken prisoner has no au-
thority to pledge himself never to
serve against a particular enemy. He
cannot throw of thus lightly the duty
he owes his sovereign or country, and
il he make any pledge 1t must be con-
fined to limited time
Moreover, If prisoner should make
q pledge not approved by his own gov
ernment, he is bound to return and
surrender himself to the enemy.
In the British army a soldier car
only give his parole through com,
missioned officer. Even q noncommis-
stoned officer or an officer of inferi0l
rank cannot give parole for himself
or for his men without permission
from his commanding officer.
The United States authorities, BY
the way, give greater liberty to parole
than is the case with the British army
A captured prisoner who has vio
lated his parole may be punished will

Count Leo Tolstoi, the famous Rus
sian novelist, is a remarkable exam
pie of q present day genius living the
life of hermit. The man resolutely
refuses, for the sake of his principles,
to occupy that social position to
which his works have entitled him.
Instead Of enjoying the delights Of SO
ciety in st. Petersburg, he is content
to live in seclusion among the peas
ants of Russia. working hard at man
ual labor. as well as mental. He
cares nothing for riches or rank, al
though the Tolstoi family is a veal
thy and powerful one. No monk could
be more severe and rigorous in his
mode of living. Count Tolstoi pre-
pares his own meals. chops the wood
for his fire, digs his own potatoes and
even makes his own boots.
