Awful Cost of War.

A comparative estimate of the
losses OF Russia and Japan in the
drst year of the war is given in a
recent issue of the London Daily Mail
The total casualty list on both sides
Is set down at 10000, of whom 10000
were killed or drowned at sea, ire
spective of those who died of disease
or privation or were taken prisoners
The figures for the Manchurian cam
paign are given as $3.50 Japanese
and 111,000 Russians killed and
wounded, the prisoners being esti-
mated at 600 and 3,4S3, respectively.
In the Port Arthur operations $1,000
Japanese and 11,4O0 Russians were
killed or wounded, and $4,000 Russians
captured. In addition to this, 1,799
japanese and 2,527 Russians were lost
at sea. OF superior officers, the Rus
SLAMS have lost eight generals Gin
Guiding Count Keller and Gen. Kon-
drachenko) and one admiral, while
eight generals and four admirals sur
rendered at Port Arthur. So far as
Is known the Japanese have only lost
two generals. In regard to material
the Russians have lost 800 guns, seven
battleships, 13 cruisers and a quantity
or other vessels of a total value of
916,5O0,000, while the Japanese have
lost 15 guns, one battleship, four pro-
tected cruisers and two coast-defense
ships. Finally, the total cost of the
war is estimated at e160,OO0,000, of
which 91O7,0OO,OOO falls to Russia
The figures are tremendous, and it is
difficult to read them without a GER
tain sense Of shame at the way in
which our trifling losses during the
Boer war were written and talked
about. Our excuse must, we suppose,
be that minor operations often cause
more pain to patients than those which
are great and serious.

An eminent physician says that
Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician" This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re-
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
10 delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician.
This is especially the case with I'M
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
TAIL to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now CORE
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
SO that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients.
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
lfyou suffer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol-
lowing are constantly pouring in.

are delightful features of this waist
which is shown with a skirt in the
same material. The yoke is of lace
draped with fichu of India null. and
the bodice fastens slightly at the left
front under three bows of coral pink
taffetas.
But" the fair critic will say, "since
the subject was theater waists why in
troduce the skirts?" and madame the
modiste will tell you that it is be-
cause the high world now looks lit
tie coldly upon the odd bodice. Ravish-
ing ones are seen and they are ex-
plotted by smart dressers, but the har-
mOnlouS ensemble of costume is
thought to supply the most satisfac-
tory get-up. Numerous splendid skirts
of velvet, silk, poplin, etc., are accom-
panied by waists entirely of lace, but
whatever the color of the skirt the
bodice matches. If more continuity is
desired, bretelleS and sashes of the
skirt material are often added. The
only exception to this, maybe, is in the
jacket of colored brocade, which may
be worn with a black or white lace
skirt. Numbers of such coats are seen
brilliantly hued, and made dashing
with stiffened tails, gemmed buttons
and rich laces which form smart
cravatS and sleeve trimmings of much
beauty.

Temper and Health.

One Of the most difficult things to do
In the world sometimes is to keep ones
temper. A calm serenity of temper and
a self-control which keeps a person un-
ruff1ed amid the petty annoyances and
lies of everyday life, says the Chicago
Daily News, indicate the possession of
perfect mental health. Nowadays peo-
pie are very fond of saying so-and-so
was ''just mad" meaning very angry:
but it would be we'll if temper were
more often seriously regarded as mad
ness. 1t may be preventable madness,
but madness it is while it lasts, and
there is seldom anyone who is made
more unhappy by it than the person
who gives way to it. In our treatment
of the ill-tempered the cultivation of
the art of not hearing will be very
helpful. 1t is useful art all through
life.

Tricks. That Cause Wrinkles.

The best way to have a smooth. nm
wrinkled skin is to keep the wrinkles
out. Unpleasant wrinkles can be kent
out of the face by avoiding those ex-
pressions which tend to make deem
lines
The woman who is the victim of the
smelling salts bottle is said to wrinkle
years before her time.
Frowning brings lines, as does every
known worry and all fretting.
Going bareheaded in a burning SIN
brings wrinkles about the ewes and
forehead. The eyes naturally trv tn
protect themselves from the iniustice
done them
And worse than some other wr;nlle-
producing expressions is the "rushn
expression which so many women and
men. too, of the present day are wear
ing daily. These wrinkles can no
avoided by remembering that another
day is coming and that a mad mace
wastes time and never makes mora

The seriousness of fire losses in the
United States becomes conspicuous as
one gets down to details. Here is an
interesting comparison: The revenue
Of the state Of Maine in 1903 was, in
round numbers, $3.50, 900; the damage
done by fires in the state during that
year is estimated at $1,000 more than
that sum. without taking into account
the destruction by forest fires, which
would have added more than 81. 900, 900

any other state would make quite as
bad showing; but such figures,
wheresoever found. are full of sugges-
ton.
