Color sehenaes In Rooms.

When following out color scheme in furnishing a room a little touch of dn entirely different but harmonizing color produces an excellent effect. This was brought out by a professional dec orator who was discussing the furnish ings of her own home.
 One room which was furnished in green and had a green velours couch cover was especially noteworthy. "The room needs something to break the monotony." she said, and some pill lows with a bit of old rose coloring will do it."
 A bedroom where the color scheme is blue and white is attractive, but re quires another color to give it warmth.
 straight cCior scheme is easy enough for any one to carry out, but it calls for considerable skill to make il distinctive, as in the practical applica- ton of little variety is usually neces- sary to make the furnishings really charming.LGood Health

Tolstoy, the great Russian novelist, spent his whole life in close com munfon with the peasants and was persuaded that all the wisdom he might have attained concerning life, it's true meaning and it's true aim, was due but 70 this fact. He knew the peasant soul; he spoke and he wrote, espe-i -iallF in his religious and moral works, the language Of the peasants. He always says, speaking of truth. that he means '"the simple peasant trutIl. He considers the work of the peasant the only dignifed labor, and he never ceased to Investigate the sinl-i pie thoughts and the clear judgments of the true workers-the peassIfts- At the very end of his life. when he left his home he walked with his daughter through village and said to her: ''l don't yet know our peasants. l will take a stick and wander from door to

Poe and the Literary Messenger.

roe ana the Literary messenger
 With his stories and his criticisms during the meager two years of his connection with the ma gazine Poe was certainly able to reflect that, as at no time in her previous literary history, he had put Richmond on the map. But the letter he wrote to Anthon when projecting the Stylus was somewhat famboyant- II had joined the Mes senger, as you know, then tn its second year, with TOO suDscribers. and the general outcry was that because a magazine had never succeeded south of the Potomac therefore a magazine nev- CT could succeed Yet in spite of this and the wretched. taste of the proprie tor, which hampered and controlled me at all points, I increased the circulation in fifteen months to $500 subscribers, paying an annual profit of $1O,OOO when I left it."-A1gernon Tassin in Book man.

CASUALTIES OF THE

Estimates of casualties suffered by tho nations at war to mfd-August

Russia has stood stupendoHs losses and in this connection it must be remembered that out of Russia's total population of "A, ,000,00O probably not more than two-thirds of it is actually avail able for drawing personnel for the army. On the other hand, Germany appears to have, more than made up it's losses to the end of the first year of war by its annual contingent. Though Germany's casualties in bat tie have been large it's losses in pris soners have been comparatively small In fact, few Germans have been talk en prisoners. Most of the French and Austrians taken prisoners were can- tured during the first few months of the war On the other hand the rate of loss in prisoners by the Rus sians has been on the increase Tn so far as personnel is concerned there fore, France shows a decided weak ness. The only source of large ac-. cessi ons is from it's ally England which still depends upon g. voluntary system for recruiting it's army Eng lands losses in proportion to her to- tai arms-bearing population are very. small. Out of it's total or 7,5OO. 600 available males it has had only 4OO.- 900 casualties in battle. On the oth- CT hand the proportion of casualties to the number of En glands men ac- tuaIly engaged in the war has been exceedingly large, because the losses were incurred by military units re- presenting a total of not more than 6OO,00O men on the line. It's small regular army was practically wiped out at Mons, the Marne, and in Elan ders.-The October Worlds Work

THE DEADLY .BAYONET


 The bayonet has returned to it's own as one or the most destructive of all weapons ever devised. Its, thrust is deadIfer than the cut of the sword or the blow of the axe or club. And the moral effect of it's is incornpara- ply greater. The defense against a blow is instinctive' and effective the arm upraised to break it's impact. But there is no natural defense against the thrust and, worse still, it comes sickeninglyla at the seat of human cour- age, the pit of the stomach. In eu- phemistic paraphrase of Private Null vaney's Vernacular, it takes diaph- ragm to stand a bayonet charge.- The November Worlds Work.
