The Ill effects OF ignorance OF

everywhere-in homes, boarding
houses. restaurants. and hotels. In
thousands of homes the walls are
covered with nondescript paper that

likewise ugly. The rooms are not
living-rooms. but museums cluttered

SPRING RuMoRs OF WAR.

Rumors Of trouble in the Balkans are
early this spring They come from
Vienna Ia the form OF "a report To- the
,ffect that Bulgaria has massed 10000
troops on the Turkish frontier. and that
young Bulgarians are being called into
military service IN great numbers. while
the railroad between Radomir and
Kostendn has been reserved for mill
tary purposes. an Of which is supposed

at that time was intense. But Bulgaria

with Turkey by which Il secured recog-

and the addition 10 It's territory OF part

II Is thought probable that the mill

Bulgaria has an army tho total war
strength OF which is estimated az $4,000
men. Turkey. on the other hand, has a
total war force OF 725,Ooo men, So It is
plain Bulgaria Is hardly I'm a position
