CHARLEMAGNE The Charlemagne of
romance is a mythical parsonage. He
is supposed 10 have been a Frenchman,
at a time when neither the French nation
nor the French language can properly be
said to have existed, and he is represented
as a doughty Crusader, although erusad-
ing was not thought of until long after
the Carlovingian era. The legendary
deeds of Charlemagne are not conformed
10 the ordinary rules of geography and
chronology. He is myth, and what is
more, he is a solar myth,-an avatar, or
at least representative, of Odin. II IN
bis case legend were not controlled and
rectified by history, he would be as IN
real as Agamemnon. History, however,
tells us that there was an Emperor Karl,
German in race, name and language, who
was one of the two or three greatest men
of action that the world has ever seen,
and who in the ninth century ruled over
all Western Europe. To the historic Karl
corresponds in many particulars the
mythical Charemagne. The legend has
preserved the fact, which without the in.
formation supplied by history we might
perhaps set down as fiction, that there
was time when Germany, Gaul, Italy,
and part of Spain formed single empire.
And, as MIR. Freeman has well observed,
the mythical crusades of Charlemague
are good evidence that there were cru
sades, although the real Karl liked Sara

Superstition In Russia.

We hear of horrid sects at present in
Russia, practicing human and cannibal
sacrifices, with rites almost more dev;lsh
than any recorded in history. 1t is a
strange thing how faith may be perveted,
and made to minister to the vilest passions.
The Communion of the Flesh of the
Lamb" and the Communion of the
Blood of The Lamb" really seem to have
been invented by the lowest demons of
the bottomless BIZ. The subject is too re-
voting to be pursued into detail; it is
enough to say, that an infant seven days
old is bandaged over the eyes, stretched
over a dish, and silver spoon thrust into
the side, so as TO pierce the h cart. The
elect suck the child's blood-that is ''the
Blood of the Lamb" The body is lett to
dry up in another dish full of sage, then
crushed into powder, ard eaten in small
cakes. That is ''the Flesh of the Lamb"
We must really apologize for stating
these frightful things but they are actually
occurring in Russia in 1869.
