PLANNING \ STUDY.

For mans study where much
writing is daily done and business
matters transacted the following
scheme is servceable and pleasing
says the London Daily Mail
The walls are canvas papered in
Prussian blue and the frieze is white
Dark brown paint is chosen for the
doors, with bronze door plates All
the rest of the woodwork. including
the architraves of the doors, is en-
ameled white.
The furniture is of dark brown oak,
the occasional chairs being covered
in pigskin. The Prussian blue carpet
has a border of mixed, dull colorings.
Bearskin rugs lie at the hearth ana
the writing desk.
The lounge chairs are covered in
brown silk and wool repp. with head
and arm rests of pigskin colored linen
buttonholed in Prussian blue silk. The
fender should be of bronze and mod
ern oil paintings or family portraits
would find a fitting home on the
walls.
A quiet, restfui effect for a study is
! carried out with walls a moss green
color in an imitation crocodile leather
paper with a deep frieze of cream
! distemper. The paint work is dark
brown, and the carpet is in two tones
of green to blend with the paper.
The following schemes are designed
to meet the growing need of bache'
lors for artistic surroundings. "some
thing out of the common" being theiI
usual demand. Here is a unique an(
most effective treatment. Steel gra!
is the color of the paper and wood
work, and a much deeper shade o
gray in rich velvet is used for the cur
tains
The brown oak floor or dark inlait
lineleum representing oak is well GOV
cred with gray goatskin rugs, and ma
hogany furniture is used The wall
prove an excellent background 70
gay little water color drawings. i
gilt frames; also for books, in whic
case the chairs shold be covered wit
tapestry in which gray, green, purpl
and rose blend together in a haI
monious whole.
II there are no pictures or books {
import the upholstering should be {
5 dull flame, colored brocade, wit
!" mezzotints on the walls in mahogan
3 frames, each corner of the wood b'
. ing inlet with a medallion of flan
colored enamel Fender and doc
furniture are of polished steel or OK
died silver
To the wealthy bachelor with q
n affection for the picturesque al
: antique the following uncommon roo
3 would be inviting; 1t has a white, 81
: spotted paper and brown woodwor
: The writing table and furniture are
old Dutch marquetry and a few w
h ter color drawings in old Silt fran
It with silhoutees and case of minis
e lures might adorn the walls.
d The upholstery should be repr
n duction of old world tapestry in a
tique red-brown coloring; and Il
J curtains to match. The rugs on q
0 polished floor reproduce the subd'
3 tones of the inlaid work of the furr
= ture. There should be an antiq'
brass fender, etc.

SONG OF JUNE.


| was a poor as the poorest, dear,
And the world-it passed me by;
But not that day
When you walked Loves way,
For heaven itself drew nigh.
II.
7 was as lone as the loneliest, love,
With never a dream of bliss,
But not that day
When you walked Loves way
And leaned to his thankful kiss.
III.
And dear to my life Is your love-
your love-
And my soul has ceased to sigh,
For Sorrow seems
But a ghost of dreams
And the stars are in life's sky.

A Nelson. Love Letter.

MT. AIgernon B. Aspina1l in 'FWest Indian Tales of .O1d'' gives some notes about Nelson when at English HarbOr, Antigua. It was while on the Leeward islands station that Nelson was taken with what he himself had described as E<the disorder which is what the world calls love- and became engaged to Miss Frances Nisbet, whom he mar ried at Nevis. Here is part of a love letter to his dearest Fanny:''
 As you begin to know something about sailors have you not often heard that salt water and absence always wash away love? Now. ann such a heretfo as not to believe that faith, for, behold, every morn ing since my arrival I have had six pails of salt water at daylight poured upon my head, and instead of finding what the sea- men say to be true perceive the contrary effect, and if it goes on so contrary to the prescription you must see me before my fixed time At first bore absence to1er- ably, but now 1t is almost insupportable,
 and by and by expect 1t will be quite SO.

, Whenever you see. a pitcher strike out a batter who doesn't swing at the ball you can know either that the pitcher is outguessing the batter serving. him '1strikes'' when the batter expects ''balIs''-or that the batter has been instructed to wait all you can,' y in order to tire the pitcher. Of course, if he takes enough time and gets the pitcher to throw three bHl1s and two strikes, he may still be fooled on the last ball and strike out, but in that case the real fault will lie in the orders gfv- en him beforehand. When you .ee a man swing sthrdily at the bal x
 miss it he is either outguessed by t e pitcher and is swinging at balls he can't reach or else the pitcher is fool ing not his mind, but his eye-is throw ing perfectly good strikes, which nev- ertheiess curve or jump so that tie batter is powerless to connect with them."-C. H. Claudy in St. Nicholas.

i, An eastern alienfst told the Mental Hygiene society that if worry could be eliminated the number of our insane would be decreaased by 40 per cent. His assertion is corroborated by other experts.
 The diagnosis, one sees, fs= delightful 1y simple, but the remedy is hard to apply Worry is of two sorts-that which comes from within and that which is imposed from without. The nervous specialist treats the first, and mental suggestion succeeds in ceF- tain proportion of cases. As for the woEry incident to our mad scramble to survive, the doctors we look to in that case are the economists and the so- cioIogists. The problem of the nerve specialist is not an easy one, but it looks almost simple when compared with the problem of the economists. Both sets, of doctors are making head way, and at present we may look for much improvement in our insanity sta tistics. So let us not worry about worry, but work to remove its causes.

Java,s VaIIex of peath.


 The ValleE of Death is on the island of Java It is the most remarkable natural example Of an atmosphere loadedswith carbonfc acid gas in exist ence. Yt:has never been fully explored Because of the danger of remaining more than few minutes im it's poison ous atmosphere. Approached through an opening between the hills, it is seen to be an oval shaped valley about half c mile across It Is about thirty-Ave feet deep. The bottom Is hard and sandy, without. vegetation and strewn with large stones. The surface Is GOV cred with the bones of animals, birds ands human beings Explorers seldom venture beyond < the borders, though the deadly air does not Immediately affect human beings. This is because the carbonic. acid gas, being heavier than the atmosphere, settles to the bottom of-the va15ey. Dogs and fowls thrown into 1U fall -sense4ess instantly and die in few minutes.

 PRAISE THE MESSAGE
Latter Says People Want Action And
 Want It Quickly.

Washington, D. C., June 24.-That President Wilson's personally deliver ed message to Congress yesterday was a success is the opinion of Gonnecti- out congressman here Representative Donovan said that the President is ''the best taIker in this or any other country
 Representative Mahan said: 'I think the message was great. It will make a good impression upon the country. I favor currency legislation at this session and expect we will en- act it. The people want action, whether it is on currency or on the tariff, or any other great question that may be before the country. There will be less objection to the pending tariff bill than there is to the uncertainty caused by delay in it's passage
 Mr. Mahan said he had not had time to read the tariff bill, as agreed upon by the finance committee, but that he thought some of the changes in the wool silk and other schedules would help Connecticut industries
 MT. Mahan again reiterated his be- lief yesterday that Thomas F. Noone would be appointed federal district judge. The opposition to Noone is political, he said. He expressed the opinion that the Connecticut deIega- ton will do nothing about the circuit judgeship until after the district judgeship matter is settled Asked about Noone in Connecticut with the circuit judgeship, Mahan said: am standing pat for Noone for district judge"

The Chilling Reply.

According to a Washington legal light, there are times when a lawyer regrets the use of an illustrat ton which a moment before has appeared especial 1y felicitous-
 ''The argument of my learned and brilliant colleague" said counsel for the plaintiff in a suit for damages from 8 railway company, ttis like the snow now falling outside it is scattered here, there and everywhere"
 Whereupon opposing. counsel improv- ed his opportunity. 'tAn I can say,'' he hastily interposed, s'ts that the gen. tleman who has lrkened my argument to the snow now falling outside has neglected to observe one little point to which, I fatter myself the similarity extends-it has covered all the ground in very short time.''
