Marriage in Russia.

A Russian marriage is always huge
affair, the ceremony at the church con-
suming at least two hours; but that part
being the climax of the event, it is i'm No
wise considered irksome. Not so. how.
eyer. with the preparatory arrangements
The trosseau and the collecting Of house
hold goods are affairs of serious moment
to the young lady's family. Not only
garments of every description by the dol-
en- are required, but all manner ofcrock-
cry, silver ware, and household furni-
ture in the bargain. For young couDIe.
as in this country, to wait until after
their marriage to furnish the house
would never be countenanced. The
bride must bring every thing with her
as near as she can. Among the indis-
pensible articles are: the house linen.
kitchen utensils, table services and
piano, and in order to provide these ar
tieles parents of limited means COM
mence from the girls earliest childhood
to lay aside artices for that purpose, and
often long before any attention what
ever has occurred under-garments are
made at odd times and reserved for the
hoped for event. Among the wealthy
the outfit is tremendous, the quantity of
clothing, linen and table wear being
sufficiently large to last throughout the
lady's own life, and give some to her
daughter, when her turn comes, a
comfortable ''setting up" The husband
elect, however, contributes his share in
the way of jewels, ornaments, etc.
After the marriage ceremonies are
over the young pair retire to their new
home, the chattels following in the Ium-
bering wagons peculiar to their own
country. Eighteen for the bridegroom
and sixteen for the bride are the earliest
ages at whech couple may be married,
and eighty for a man and sixty for a
woman the latest. Fourth marriages
are not lawful, and third is considered
anything but proper. To belong to the
Orthodox Church it almost compulsory
in Russia, and consequently every act
of a Russians life is more or less con-
nected with his religion. Therefore a
marriage must be religiously legal to be
legal at all. A second marriage places
the parties under penance of two years.
Marriage between kindred, however far
distant, even unto so called "forty-second
COUSINS" is against the law, and eonsid-
cred by all Russians as an abOminatiOn.
Neither may n young person marry
God-parent, the latter coming under the
head of spiritual relations" Priests
marry but once, and although there is no
law forbidding a priests widow from
marrying a second time, it is by no
means considered ''the thing" and
should the lady persist in becoming en-
gagged, she may be sure of makinga sem
sation among the clergy, ifnot in society
generally. Divorces are unheard of, and
secret marriages, that are nine out of ten
cases bigamies, are null and void, and
also but seldom heard of.

AN ENTERPRISING AND THOUGHT
FUL WIFE.-A correspondent of the
Boston TrdCeler sends the following:
"There has resided in the south end of
this city, for a number of years past, a
man and wife-the man a kind and in
dulgent husband, the wife n most extra
ordinary woman, which the sequel to
this story will show. They were in good
circumstances, though not rich, had the
comforts of life, but never saved up much
money apparently. They had lived for
many years i'm this way, until one day
the wife said to her husband: 'Hus-
band, why don't you buy house il is
so much nicer than to rent 'Ah,' said
the husband, Il can't afford it, But
said the wife, wouldn't you take one il
anybody would give one? Certainly
says he, little thinking that il would
ever come to pass. The wife then pre-
sented him sheet of paper Reader.
what do you think that sheet of paper
was? 1t was nothing less than the
deed of nice house in this city costing
$1,000, which amount the wife had saved
out of the money her husband had given
her to spend for various things. You
can Judge of the surprise to her hus-
hand

A Mothers Power.

A moments work OH clay tells more
than an hours labor on brick. So work
on hearts should be done before they
harden. During the first six or eight
years of child-life mothers have chief
sway; and this is the time to make the
deepest and most enduring impression
on the human mind.
The examples of maternal influence
are countless. Solomon himself records
the words of wisdom that fell from a
mothers lips, and Timothy was taught
the scriptures from child by his grand
mother and mother.
John Randolph, of Roanoke, used to
say: ~ should have been a French
atheist were il not for the recollection
of the time when my departed mother
used to take my little hands i'm hers and
make me say, on my bended knees,
Our father who art in heavenr"
81 have found out what made you the
man you are" said a gentleman one
morning to President Adams, 'T have
been reading your mothers letters to
her son."
Washington's mother trained her boy
to truthfulness and virtue; and when his
messenger called to tell her that her son
was raised to the highest station in the
nations gift, she could say, ''George was
a good bOyw
a mothers tears dropped on the head
of her little boy one evening as he
sat in the doorway, and listened while
she talked of Christ and his salvation.
"Those tears made me a missionary"
said he, when he gave his manhood's
prime to the service of the Lord.
Some one asked Napoleon what was
the great need of the French nation.
'Mothersw was the significant answer.
Woman, has God given you the priv
ileges and responsibilities of mother
hood? Be faithful, then, to the little
ones. You hold the key of their hearts
now. If you once lose it, you would
give the world to win it back. Use your
opportunities before they pass.
And remember, little ones, you never
will have but one mother. Obey and
honor her. Listen to her words, and
God will bless you day by day.

To MoTHERs.-Use your parlors.
Don't keep a solitary parlor, into which
