Roumania has lost thirty thousand men Servia, in whose -losses must be included those of 1876, has lost twenty thousand, and hetoio little Mon tenegro, whose battles are worthy of a Homeric epic, lost at least fifteen thou sand of her stafwart toni. The losses of Russia and those who fought on her side will approach the terrific total of two hundred thousand men. On the Turkish side' the losses must -even have been greater.

There is nothing so pleasing as home. Where brothers and sisters agree; -t Where harmony dwells in each not, A love flows plenteous and free. Where father and mother is one, In sunshine aa well as in pain; Where children are taught the sweet truth, That to lore eaoh other is gain. How it gladdens the heart of a mother, When she sees her children at play. With love through their actions coursing.

And all goes happy and gay. But then there's a home not pleasing, Where jars aud grumbling are heard; brothers and sisters are quarreling, And kindness is scarcely preferred. Where father or mother ia cruel. And the household with love not blest; Where we can not welcome each home With lore's honeyed kiss to their rest. Then brothers and sisters be kind, Let love in your aotions ran free, That you always may love your own home, Like birds love their nest in the tree.
