Abandon Serbia Pursuit.

 Bulgarians had abandoned further pursuit of the remnants of the Serbian army into Albania. The Albanians themselves, however. were attending to the completion of the destruction of the Serbian army, he said.
 Passing to the general consideration of the war General Jacoff said he doubted whether the world conflict would be decided in the Balkans. Rus sia was scarcely in & position to bring this about. The entente allies could only endeavor to force such decision by offensives in the west and the east. He said he saw no immediate pos abilities of peace, at least not before the middle of the spring, since the entente allies still cherish great ttopas and set vast hopes on new offen- sive. The crisis could only como when this plan was broken down.
 Greece for Neutrality.
 The Sofia correspondent of the LokaI Anzeiger who has just returned from a long visit at Saloniki, declares that Greece is determined to main tain neutrality at all hazards and will abandon it only if forced to do so by reason of the Bulgarian troops not leaving Greek territory when the op- erations against the Anglo-French forces are completed. A Bulgarian authority. adds the correspondent, has declared that this contingency is out of the question.

CARLYLE AND HIS WIFE.
A Glimpse Of the III Assorted Couple
and Their Homo Life.

1t is certain that the Carlylcs were
an II! assorted couple. She considered
from the beginning that to marry him
was an act OF condescension on her
part. The daughter Of country doc.
tor Of Haddington had descended from
the skies. like Diana to Endymion, to
marry the son OF a stonemason. -
But he loved her and was happy in his
love.
Not so she. Jealous Of him as she
was-furiously jealous-not as lover.
for there she knew she was safe. But
she could not bear to think that II she
were famous 1t was as his wife. where
as she, knowing herself to be brilliant.
would fain have had him to be known
as the husband of that wonderful Mrs
Carlyle. 1t was his success. social and
literary. that she resented. 1t irkcl
her to be in the second place. and she
could not forgive it. -"
There was something else of which
the lady was jealous. and that was the
agony Of concentration which her hus
bands work meant for him. At mo
ments her ''sacva indignatiO" against
that Carlyle" as she would contemp
tuously call him. passed all bounds.
One day my aunt went to call upol
her and found her in one Of her tan

African Fashion Notes,

The prettiest dress of the Mpongwe
woman is a cloth drawn up under the
arms, scarf on the shoulders and a
handkerchief folded over the coi!ed
hair in high stiff fold set well up on
the head. rather like child's idea Of
crown. There is a great fancy for
puppies and lavenders set off with
shades Of rose and red and a sudden
keen note Of gilt. With black there
will be a touch Of most delicious bright
green. A cloth and scarf worn by a
woman of beautiful gesture-and Ga
bonnaise is always that-have a certain
mutable charm; the movements Of the
body, the wind that blows from the
sea-these renew and display the folds
Of the garment so that the eye is in

For many years London has been
steadily drained of her gold by India.
In ten years India has absorbed from
circulation 15O.OOO.OOO gold sovereigns
and boarded them away. The coolie

poor investment. especially If he melts
them into anklets or a nose ring for
his wife. as over 30 per cent of the
silver is lost in the melting pot, while
the gold sovereign preserves its value
whether he keeps it as coin or melts
it. When coolie collects Is ru-

SOUTHERN
WOMEN LAWYERS

Women lawyers have a varied
experience in southern states.
In Georgia q woman has been
awarded a diploma in graduation
from a Georgia law college, whose
charter admits women, but the
state laws prevent women from
practiclng. SO Georgia women
must leave their native state IN
order to practice the profession of
law. The same il true in Vir
GINA. More progressive states
have number of brilliant women
lawyers. In Texas q young man
was recently granted a license to
practice in the state courts, and
was admitted to practice In the
federal court. His license was
made out and signed by his mo-
Their, Mrs. D. B. Stuart, who is
deputy clerk. THIS inter estinp
privilege would have been denied
Mrs. Stuart had she lived in
North Carolina, where the courts
have decided women are ineligible
to serve AZ deputy clerks. Intel.
llgent southern women would do
we'll to remove to states where
talent Is recognized and sex il not
imposed upon by ignorance or in
feriority. Equal opportunity for
it's daughters and its sons in the
professions and at the ballot box
will eventually prevail in the
south, but the south may be pro-
verbally slow In the desired
