FAMOUS MEN.
COUNT LEO TolsToY

Leo Tolstoy was, in many respects
the most unusual. man in literature
that Russia ever gave to the word.
He was BORN writer and idealist, and
for three quarters of a century he was
the best known and most talked about
writer CT the land of the Gear.
At the age of five Tolstoyss imagi-
nation was fired by his brother telling
him of a green stick, buried at the edge
of ravine on which was written the
secret that would make all men hap
Ply and enable them to live in loving
harmony with one another. Tolstoy's
especially the last thirty years of
twas devoted to the study of that
magic message and to communicate
ing what he could decipher OF it to
mankind.
Tolstoy is generally supposed to have
belonged to the peasant class of Russia,
because he was such strong upholder
of that vast section Of the population
of his country. such is not the CAGE,
for he was related to several of the
principal Russian families. The first
Count Tolstoy served Peter the Great
as Ambassador at the Sublime Pc. tie,
side he was descended from many no
sion history.
Leo Tolstoy was born in August 1923.
From early childhood showedsmuch in
dividuaiity of thought. He wrote con-
stantly while at school, but little of
this early effort has been preserved,
for it was in the larger field of the
novel that he found his greater sue
cess. His masterpiece "War and Peace
was not begun until he was thirty six
years of age, and it kept him busy for
five years. It containued some 900. 900
words and was originally published in
six volumes.
Toistoy's Anna Karenina," which is
the book by which the American peo-
pie know him best, unless it might
be through a few of his most strik-
ing short stories which were written
later, was finished in 1876 when the
writer was close to fifty years of age
It was about this period that strik-
ing philosophical and social questions
took complete possession of Tolstoy
and for more than decade following
he gave to the world series of religi-
GUS, social and philosophical treatises
| beginning with his @Commentary or
| the Gospel which he prepared in 1888
down to his What is Art which was
finished in 1898.
When the latter was issued Tolstey
was seventy years of age It contain
ed ideas of great depth and breadth
and afforded an interesting illustra-
| ton of the thoroughness with which
| the author entered upon his work. II
| 18a9a new work of fiction appeared
entitled Resurrection" and in 1901
| his drama THE Living Corpse ap-
peared.
During the remaining ten years d
his life-for Tolstoy lived until IS,
his writings were mostly of a pc
litieaI character and in 1910, in pur
suanee of, long delayed plan to en-,
i his days in solitude, he fled his estate
but contracted pneumonia On his jour
ney and died. November 20, AT sinal

Tested SO much interest in its behalf dur
ing the early days Of peacemaking, but.
there was a reluctance on the part of
the countries Of Europe to take hold Of
the problem. 1T was a Job which they
desired to turn off. on the Uniteas States.
which/had no desire or intention Of mix
ing into the affairs Of that part of the
world and let it be clearly understood
that it could not be relied upon to ac-
cept "a mandate for Armenia
In the meantime the league Of nations
doesn't appear to have exercised itself
in giving protection to the Armenians
and if the truth were known it probably
doesn't welcome the idea of this confer
ence stin holding it responsible for
dealing with ArmenianH troubles. It
may not be a welcome task but it ought
not to be neglected for that reason.
