Emotions Shown by Color.

Certain colors correspond to various
human emotions, and are known,
therefore, as emotional colors. Blue
represents spiritual emotions, and
signifies true religion in its lighter
shades; yellow belongs to the feelings
that go with the highest intellectual
development, and brilliant intellect
has its color counterpart in a vivid
golden hue; orange and brown are al
ways associated with misery and
greedy instincts.
Red is the color par excellence of
passion; when deep or dull it is sym
bolical of sensuality and animal pas
sions. Dark crimson represents hatred,
and the higher forms of love glow
with pure rose color
Green indicates deceit, gray beto-
kens gloom and black is the emotional
color Of revenge and malice.

VALUE OF EARTHQUAKES.
Ancient Idea of Fertilization Ell
fective in European War.

From tho Rochester Democrat.
1t has remained for the greatest bat
tie of the war in Europe thus far to
demonstrate in a measure the value Of
earthworks for defense against the
most powerful modern guns and ex-
plosive shells ever devised by the mind
of man. For, considering the actual
value of defensive works, sand has
shown its superiority over concrete I'M
resisting attack upon the outer line OF
forts at Nerdun.
The permanence of earthwork forth
fications has been abundantly demon
strated in this country. In the town Of
Portsmouth, r. l.. there is an earthen.
star-shaped fort. constructed during
King Philips war. early in the seven
teenth century. 1t remains substan-
TALLY intact today. except where IL has
been encroached upon by building op-
erations. 1t was effective against the
attacks of the Indians in Roger VII
liams' day, and il would doubtless, as
shown by experience at Nerdun in the
last few days, be more generally proof
against modern gunnery than the re-
inforced concrete which yields so read
lily to modern shells.
One of the demonstrated merits of
massive earthwork detenses is tbs
manner in which they lend themselves
to speedy repair after vigorous attack.
compared with stone. iron and con-
crete construction. The spade and
shovel used now so extensively in
"digging-in tactics" loom large in the
equipment of modern armies; hence the
means for repairing even an immense
earthwork fertilization are conve-
niently at hand. When fortress made
of composite of reinforced concrete,
steel bars and stone is struck by few
42-csntimeter dynamite shells its USE
fulness is ended.
At moiety of the cost of concrete
VI ri
could be constructed with such advan-
tage a they possess, and il might thus
happen that an offensive army would
exhaust its resources in an impetuous
attack. without putting defensive
works out of commission and beyond
hope of quick repair.
