Russian Funerals.
Youths Companion.l


 We learn, from khsPs work on St Petersburg, that black coffins are sel dom used in Russia: coffins are gen. erally brown, but children have pink grown-up unmarried girls sky-biue, while older females are indulged with violet color. Among the poorer classes the coffin is adorned with pine branches while among the rich the whole way from the habitation to the church i. strewed with the same. MT. Khol says
 "The coffin is carried to the church uncovered, that the acquaintances who may happen to meet it in the street may have last glimpse of their friends face. The lid is carried before. The coffin is followed, even in the daytime, by band of torch-bearers, with broad cooked hats, and offer up a prayer to heaven for the dead and so earnest are they in their devotion that they do no, replace their hats until the cavalcade has disappeared from sight. This mark of respect is shown to every corpse-to Russians as we'll as to Protestants and Catholics. In the church the corpse is again set out in state and the priests, clad in black and white and holding in their hands wax.lights enveloped in crape, supply the dead with everything they judge necessary for the journey On his forehead is placed a fllet orna- mented with holy saws and images. In his hand is stuck cross of wax or other substance. He then receives the passport.
 "Even a plate of food is placed near the coffin. This funeral dish is kulia. and generally consists of rice cooked with honey, formed into kind of pud- ding. This is stewed with raisins by way of ornament, and on top lies a cross of the same fruit. The wealthy, instead of raisins, use small pieces of sugar.
 After this mass, in Russian eccle- siastical language, Panichide, is chanted by the priests. During this the relations take the last farewell of the departed, all kiss his hand, and amongst the lower orders the most doleful and eloquent ad- dresses succeed. If the deceased be a married man, the widow gives way to the most moving and poetical exprss- sions of sorrow. Wringing her hands and stariag all the while at the face of the corpse, as if he were still alive, she cries new louder, now more gently:
 @' C olubotschik moi, Drushotschick. Alas my little dove, my little friead, why hast thou deserted me3 Did not prepare everything at home for thee with love, that thou must thus spurn thy wife Woe is mel How fresh and we'll didst thou sit with me and thy children only six weeks ago, and playedst with thy lit- tic son Feodor, who is three years old and now thou art dead and still, and answerest not word to thy wife and weeping children My little friend, my husband, lord, awake a~ake!
 AmidSt this lamentation without end the lid of the coffin is closed, and the procession moves on to the burial ground"

the echo like teacher1 ?" Give it up. /" Because he is a tootor." O, Death where is thy sting2
 More internal racket by the band. The echo, who weighs about 200 pounds, comes back to the pavilion. He smiles. Everybody smiles. He looks foolish. The members of the band sing: "Bow- wow-wow." That is intended to repre- sent the hounds chasing the deer, so Sykes says. Perhaps the dogs have treed 'possum.
 "Wah wahl o, Lordy, yah P This noise was not by the band. It was some body in the crowd. "Wah wah wah P Policeman had showed fat man back, and fat man had stepped on little sad- dle-colored nigger. "Wah wah wah !" walled the little nigger. Sympathetic white baby cries, too. Can't hear the music by the band. The echo shoots of toy pistol several times, to represent the hunters getting their work in.
 "Toetle, tootle, chug, chug, chug," by the trombone. Some of the hunters have trapped the bottled beer. That's the way drinking beer out of bottle sounds. Grand racket by the band. All the hunt CTS drunk, suppose. That's the way hunting parties wind up in Texas

On the programme it's called a piccolo solo, cannot sing the old song" Of course he can't sing the old song and play the young flute at the same time. King David was the only man who could play on the Jews harp and sing at the same time. David was Jew, and, of course, his harp vas Jew's-harp. Bible, revised edition, says he sang and played his harp before the ark. Don't believe it, because the man with the young flute or piccolo, says himself he can't sing the old song and whistle into the piccolo at the same time.

A Question for Christian Voters
To Decide.

Was the Rev. Sam Jones right
when he said that "every Christian
not only ought, but every Christian
would vote for Prohibition ?"
To answer this question intelli--
gently, we must ask another, VIZ e.
What is the end to be obtained by :
Prohibition? We understand this
to be plainly to keep, the
men and women already ad-
dicted to excessive indulgence Off
their appeties, and to keep the ris--
ing generation from contracting
the dangerous habit Of excessive
drinking by putting the temptation
away from them by constitutional
enactment.
Now it would seem, even to a.
lukewarn Christian, that the end;
proposed by Prchtflti0n Ii. II 11nSs
in harmony with the Christian Re.
ligion, and when prayerfully con-
sidered is sufficient to bind the con-
science and ballots of every one
having love for souls. Hence, /
conclude that the Georgia Divine
was correct in the statement of his
proposition, and shall myself be
consistent hereafter, the Lord help
ing me. Let every Christian decide
the question for himself. 1t is to
the Church first that we look for
success in the Prohibition move
ment and right nobly is she coming,
up to her duty, taking the utteran-
ces of her ecclesiastical courts as
evidences.

Bidding long adieu to my

trip on account of cold weather..
We had snow for several days in,
Kentucky and Illinois. We rested.
with one exception on Sundays
then we were on Cumberland
Mountains and could not get pro-
visions. We also stopped for a few
day in Wright County, in the east
ern part of Missouri, at John Hut
sells, an old friend ofmy father and
native of Tennessee.
We are we'll pleased with our
home, surrounded by prairie on all
sides. We have not the advantage
of many springs, but our wells are
good, pure and healthy, and the
country beautified beyond des-
cription. l could talk to you for.
