When . Russian Merchant becomes
rich. he builds for himself q fine house.
or buys and thoroughly repairs the
house Of some ruined noble. and spends
money freely on inlaid floors. gigantic
mirrors. malschite tables. pianos BY tn.
best makers, and all other articles OF
furniture made 81 the mos, costly mate
rails. OccasionaIly-especiAlly on the
occasion Of . marriage OF death In the
family--he will give magnificent ban.
quets, and expend enormous sums on
gigantic sterlcts. choice surgeons. for
sgn fruits. champagne. and all manner
of costly d~elicscies. But all this lavish.
ostentatious expenditure does not Affect
the ordinary current Of his daily life.
A. you enter those gxudily furnished
rooms you can perceive nj . glance that
they are not for ordinary use. You no
tice a rigid symmetry aud indescribable
baroness which inevitably suggests that
the original arrangements Of the up
holsterer have never been modified or
supplemented. The truth il that by far
the greater part Of the h ,use il only
used on state occasions. The host and
his family live down stairs, In small.
dirty rooms, furnished In q very differ.
ent. and tor them more comfortable
style. At ordinary times the fine rooms
are closed. and the fine furniture care
fully covered. II you make a rustic dc
poi,tesse after nm entertainment mt
which you have been present, YOU will
probably have some difficulty In gain
ing admission mt the front door.
Vlhan sns. hu.r. L~L
eral times, some one will probably come
round from the back regions and ask
you what you want Then follows an
other long pause, and at last footsteps
are heard approaching from within.
The bolts are drawn, the door IL OPEN
ed, aud you are led up TO n spacious
drawing room. At the wall opposite
the windows there Ii sure To be a sofa,
and before II an oval table. al each
end OF the table, and mt right angles 10
the sofa, there will be n row of three
arm chairs. The other chairs will be
symmetrically arranged round the
room. In q few minutes the host will
appear. In his long. doublc-breasted
black coat and well polished long boots.
His hair Is parted In the middle. and
ms beard shows no trace of scissors or
razor. After the customary greetings
have been exchanged. glasses of tea,
with slices Of lemon and preserves, or
perhaps a bottle Of champagne, arc
brought In by way Of re~frcshment. The
female members Of the family you must
not expect to See, unless you are an in
innate friend; for the merchants still
retain something Of that female 'seclu.
sion which was In vogue among the
upper classes before the time Of Peter
the Great. The host himself will prob
ably he an intelligent but totally uned-
ucatcd and decidedly taciturn man.
About the weather and the crops he
may talk tluently enough, but he will
not show much inclination to go beyond
these tOnics.

The Power Of children.

A man was leaning, much intoxicat-
ed. against . tree; some little children
coming from school saw him there; and
ut once said to each other: What shall
we do for himP"
Presently, said one '.Oh! I'll tell
you. let us sing him q temperance
song"
And so they did; collecting around
him, they sang:
"Away the bowl, away" and so on
In beautiful tunes.
The poor fellow enjoyed the singing,
and when they had finished he said:
Sing again. little girls, sing again,
I'VE will." they said. Iii you will
sign the temperance pledge"
mo, We are not ut n temperance
meeting; there are no pledges here"
IL have n pledge" cried one; and IL
have q pencil" cried another. Holding
up the pledge. they besought him TO
sign 1t.
''No. I won't sign 1t now. Sing for
So they sang again
''The drink that's In the drunkard's
bowl
Is not the drink for me-"
"Oh. do sing that again." as said he,
he wiped the tears from his eyes.
mo, no more" said they, ..unless
you'n sign the pledge; sign and well
sing for you"
He pleaded for the singing. but they
were firm. and declared they would 20
away II he would not sign.
But" said the poor fellow. striving
to find some excuse, 'there's no table
here, how 10 I write without q tableP''
At this, q modest, quiet, pretty little
creature, with her finger on her lips,
came forward and said, ''Yes, you can
spread the pledge on the crown OF your
hat, and I'll hold II for YOU"
OF came the hat. the child held Il,
the pledge was signed. and tho little
n Q burst out with
'Oh water for me. bright water for
me,
Give wine 10 the tremulous de-
bauchee."
l heard that man In Worcester town
hall, with uplifted hands and ~Quiyering
lips say, II thank God for the sympathy
Of those children. Ishall thank God TO
all eternity that no sent those little
children ~ messengers Of mercy to

1t is the opinion Of Q farmer Of high
authority and taste, that every pasture
should contain some white clover. II

Of the year than any kind Of grass or

Moscow.

The Russians love Moscow. 1t IL the
idol Of every Russian heart. Her shrines
are to him the hottest in the empire,
hsllowed by seven centuries Of historical
associations. But grand and holy as |,
Is, It has suffered from the sword, the
torch and the plague. Three hundred
years ago 1t was nearly consumed by
tire, In which two thousand Of its citf.
Gems persisted. Fifty years later the
Tartars fired tho suburbs, and one hun.
drcd thousand Of its inhabitants per-
ished by the flames and by the sword.
A hundred years ago the plague SD re-
duced its population that 1t never re-
gained Its former proportions. Within
u own century, and to save II from
plumber by the French, the people gave
up their beautiful city to the flames, the
grandsst sacrifice yer madet to national
pride. But when the French retreated,
tho city was rebuilt, and is to-day "a
thing Of beauty" Its too frequent re-
construction Is the cause Of the irregu-
larity everywhere apparent Only o few
OF the streets arc straight; q palace and
a howell. . state building and . store,
q splendid church and q small hotel, ad-
join each other, and the rich and the
poor are nearest neighbors. Nothing
Ii mort noticeable and attractive than
the display Of ~colors, red. white, green,
gold and silver, with which the public
and private buildings IN ornamented.
Rome has long been celebrated as the
''city Of churches" having n for each
day In the year, m additional one for
leap year; but Moscow can boast Of
nearly four hundred temples dedicated
to religion. Although the circumvalls-
ton Of the city 10 moro than twenty
English miles, yet the objects OF interest
to ~atravelcr are confined within narrow
limits. The Aoskva flows through the
city, spAnncd by noble bridges, and
along It's banks are beautiful lawns.

Mrs. Mary J. Aldrich. In An article In
tho Iowa Investigator upon the ribbon
temperance movement and the neccssi-
~ Of union In tho work. says:
these strong human attachments.
II not guarded, create jealousies, pro-
woke rivalries, and foster dissensions
that weaken our cause by dividing our
efforts. The enemy knows this full
well. and rejoices ~ he sees In the work
ers not only diversity Of methods bat
diversity Of purpose; making the object
sought not simply the advance Of the
temperance cause. but 10 increase Rey-
nold's name and influences; to add 10
the fame Of Murphy's work and power;
to secure the triumph Of the red ribbon
over the blue, or ttce rersa. We felt II
10 BE- n Of the greatest u~ttsrsnces Of
Mr.. Drew to which we had yet listened.
when not long since he said: 1t seemed
to him sometimes that people lost sight
Ut one fact Il was we'll 10 bear In mind
that Il, that this temperance work
wasn't any mans work; II wa Gods
work. People talk Of II ~ Reynolds
work, OF Murphy's work. or Orew's
work, but tho workers are the smallest
thing about Il. The work In Gods.
When John W. Drew Is forgotten. when
Reynolds has passed away, when Muir
ply Is gone and the eloquence Of q John
Ii. Cough even Is remembered no more,
this temperance work will move on and
on; the men will die, their names will
pass out Of mind. but the work will live,
for II Is the Lords And l thought II
all Of us could feel this, how self would
sink out Of sight and the advancement
OF tho u become everythingl How
easy II would be- then to unite workers
instead of separating them and trying
to marshal the rank and file Of this great
emperancc army under different heads!
We need In Iowa, and indeed every
where. the most perfect harmony among
temperance workers, unity Of purpose
and concert Of action. In union there
Is strength, and we ask the women es-
pecially to stand by each other in this
warfare and work together. We are
confident that the women will work far
more efficiently II united In q State or
ganixation than otherwise, and II Is a
matter Of rejoicing that the auxiliaries
Of the Woman's Christian temperance
Union are increasing In number and In
membership throughout the State. 1t
Is to be regretted that some Of the wo-
men's temperance societies seem TO care
only for their own town or city. and
that some organizers Of Reform Clubs
are willing to divide the efforts Of the
women In this work"

Those cylinders r connected by rods
with propelling screws At the stern Of

these rods are rcvolvcd the wheels In

thus making q trough for the boat, and
the wheel behind has only to push the
boat through the air. Even with hand
