Poland's Interpreter.

Twenty years ago Henryk Sienkiewicz
dawned with startling suddenness upon
the vision of English fiction readers as a
writer of great power and charm, who
used in his work such masses of mate
rails as would have overwhelmed an au-
thor of smaller resources. His "Quo
Vadis?" brought home TO the most hur-
ried readers some notions of those con-
dtons in the time of Nero which made
possible the conquests of the new faith
Just born in Galilee, and warned them
also of the degrading consequences which
luxury brings to a people without moral
heroism. Many of these readers later
We're fascinated by the epic sweep of the
novelst's great historical trilogy, and,
undismayed by the length of the tales,
they found abiding pleasure in following
the fortunes of his two great characters,
one called the Don Quixote of Lithuania,
the other "a curious combination OF Fal-
staff and Ulysses" one of the great per
sonages of modern fiction.
But this Lithuanian Pole who is just
dead in Switzerland, was all his life

How to Select Wall Paper.

| Nothing makes so much difference il
the appearance OF room as the wall pa
| per. Ii you have a room which somehow
never seems right, no matter what you
do to it, the reason is probably that the
paper is wrong. As long as this insult
able paper remains on your walls the ar
tistlc success OF your room is doomed
All this means, of course, that you should
take plenty OF time in selecting wall pa
per, tor if you make a mistake you will
probably be forced to live with it for
some time. Study your room before you
90 to the decorators and decide about
what you wait. Never select your paper
by samples only il you can possibly
avoid it. If you do you are likely to be
surprised when the paper is delivered,
for it will probably be quite different in
bulk from what you imagined IRON the
sample.
In general it is better to select a plain
color for living room, or at least one
which appears plain from a distance. On
nearer inspection it may be found to be
relieved by tiny lines. And, by the way,
it is a good plan to look at the paper
from a distance of six or eight feet when
purchasing, because in this way you get
"A better effect OF the general appearance
which it will have when hung. Walls
should always be considered as back
grounds for pictures, draperies and other
decorative effects and should, therefore,
be kept as soft and neutral as possible.
Dull colors are best for dining rooms and
living rooms, while the lighter shades are
better for bed rooms.
The amount of light which a room re-
ceives should determine the color of the
paper in most cases. Yellow tones will
light up a room and give sense of
warmth which is desirable in sunless
rooms, and red, if care is used in the Sc
lection, is also good for northern expos
ures Green and blue are cold colors and
should be used only in room of fair
size which receives more or less sunshine.
If you wish to introduce these colors into
your room but are not sure that they
will be appropriate, it will probably be
better to select hangings and cushions OF
these colors and choose a safe tan or buff
Tor the wall paper.
A good test for choosing paper for
bed room is to select pattern which
would be restful to the eyes if you
should be i'll for some time. Never
choose bed room paper with geo
netrical pattern, for it would be tor
nent if YOU should ever be i'll and be /
obliged to stare at it day after day.

LAVAS OF HAWAII.
Form One of the Most Interesting Fea-
lures of the Country.

None of the island possessions of the
United States exhibit more notable
points of interest for the observant trav
eler or the naturalist than the Hawaiian
islands The natives are typical of the
race inhabiting many island groups OF
the south Pacific, the plant life has the
attractive features of insular develop
ment in semtropical ATTITUDES, the ma
rine life of the warm waters is wonder
full, but perhaps the most fascinating, in
structive, and awe-nspiring OF all the
natural phenomena of Hawaii are fur
nished by its active volcanoes The whole
group of islands, extending in chain
for many hundred miles, is of volcanic
reefs are but the wave battered REM
nants of volcanoes whose fires have long
since died out
Approaching Honolulu by steamer
| from San Francisco, the traveller has the
evidence of volcanic action plainly before
him in the first land he sees in the ash
cone of Koko Head and the well pre-
served craters of Diamond Head and the
Punch Bowl, which are in the outskirts
of the city. The high mountains of the
island OF Oahu are also made up of black
lava -basalt-but they are largely COW
cred with vegetation and one must go
to the largest island of the group, Ha-
wall, for the wonderful demonstration Of
the process by which all these island
mountains have been built up from great
ocean depths. Kilauea, one of the most
active, and Mauna Loa, one of the larg-
est volcanoes in the world, are showing
just how lava builds up mountains. Both
Of these volcanoes are included i'll the
newly created Hawaii National park.
Since the time OF Captain Cook the
Hawaiian islands have been visited by
biologists and Others interested in the
problems of volcanoes, and much has
been written concerning them.
Professional paper So, "Lavas of Ha-
wall and Their Relations" by Whitman
Cross, of the United States geological
survey, department OF the interior, pre-
sents a summary OF what is now known
concerning the lavas of all the islands
This paper is largely technical in its
for it is intended primarily to
serve as basis for future study OF the
rocks by biologists.
1t appears that there are many other
kinds OF layas in Hawaii besides basalt,
and many facts OF association of the
different layas are of interest to stu
dents of the inner history of volcanoes.
While much is yet to be learned con
corning the lavas OF these islands, Mr.. |
Cross shows that present knowledge OF
the rocks is sufficient to throw light on
some Of the most yexed questions per |
tanning to the origin and relations OF the I
gneous rocks Of the earth The chemical |
ations are discussed with particular
Psychologists will find val |
liable material in this report, bearing on
many problems.
