The, London Times' Russian tor-
- respondents say that the clieincliatte
tion to join tho colors for inanohuria,
recently noticeable in South Russia,
is becoming throughout the country.
Competent opinion puts the number
of reservists who so far have es-
caped at 20,000 at least. It has
been shrewdly suspected that in
spite of Russia's overwhelming
strength on paoer, she has already
been sadly put to it to equip oven
150,000 trained soldiers from. her
. 'Europeaa countries for service in
hehuria. Even military men ad-
mit that two more European corps
will exhaust the Russian stock of
eirectivelo trained and properly
equipped men.
G -RAIN TRAFFIC BLOCKED.
Tho Itussion correspondents of the
London Times report extraordinary
accumulations of grain in Russia.
The block is estimated at 91,1.86
and trucks, containing about
. a million tons of grain. The grain
blocks are bound to assume even
greater proportions during tho next
few weeks, and it is exceedingly
doubtful whether the last, of tho
sidings will be cleared without the
assistance of the waterways at the
opening of next year's navigation.
The losses, many of which have to
be borne by the moojiks, or peas-
ants, are most serious.

An affable manner is of great vielue
to the woman who desires to maw
lierself egreeable, and geniality
counts for it great deal.

Some women, ia company, rely on
their looks to pull them through.
Nature having clone her part hand-

may rest on her oars. Never Was a
greater mistake made; the uglieso
woman on earth who strives under
all circumstances to mako. beroelf

LIKED AND LOVED
as 210 pretty woman ever can hope to
be who will not take the trouble to
bo agreeable.
The most unfortenutto of all wo-
men, liowee-er, is the one who does
not strive to be agreeable in the
home, in other words, with husband
and family; such a (me is to be piti-
ed, but she has hereelf to blame.
She has domestic d'uties to perform
but why does she omit the most im-
portant of them all?
Surely a wife has no higher domes-
tic duty to perform than that of
making herself agreeable to husband
and family?
It is a common thing for a wife, if
lier husband begins to hold fortli
genially, to cut him short, "I can't
be bothered with that to -night," she
says, and the man naturally stops,
thought with resentment.
Then the young ones violet a, little
noise, and she is up in arras at once,
"I won't have you playing and mak-
ing a noise near me," she says, and
the poor things desist from their
romps.
Sueh a wife, and mother, has not
learnt the art of making herself
agreeable; she should listen quietly
to her husband, and impress him
With tho fact that she is interested,
in all misitters he cares to talk about.
She should smile on the children',
wben busy enjoying their romps, and
in such simple wae,s make herself
agreeable i71 the home,
There is no looepier woman on tine
earth than she who has thoroughly
mastered the art of making herself
agreeable; she carries sunshine wher-
ever slie goes.
