Red Tap in Russia.

How easy it is in Russia to get a
high officials signature to any sort of a
document may be illustrated by an an
ecdote that I have every reason to be-
lieve is absolutely true. A "stola-
nachalnik,' or head of a bureau, in the
provincial administration of Tobolsk,
while boasting one day about his power
to shape and direct governmental
action, made a wager with another
chinovnik that he could get the Gov
ernor of the province-the late Gov
ernor Lissogorski-to sign a manuscript
copy of the Lords Prayer. He wrote
the prayer out in the form of an official
document on sheet of stamped paper,
numbered it, attached the proper seal
to it, and handed it to the Governor
with a pile of other papers which re-
CURED signature. He won his wager.
The Governor duly signed the Lord s
Prayer, and it was probably as harmless
an official document as ever came out
of his office. George KEENAN,, in

a CHINESE STORY.

Two young, near-sighted fellows, Chang an,
Ching, ~-
Over their chopsticks idly chatterip9.
Fell to disputtng which could see the best.
At last they planned to put 1t to the test
Said Chang: "a marble tablet, SO hear,
L. placed uHon the Bo-hee temple near,
With ar inscription on 1t. Let us 20
And feadit (since you vaunt your optics SOY.
standing together at a certain place
In front, where we the letters just may trace:
Then he who quickest reads the inscriptior
there,
The palm for keenest eyes henceforth shall
BEAR
"Agreed," said Ching, 'but let us try it soon,
Suppose we say tomorrow afternoon"
may, not so soon, said Chang; I'm bound To
go
Tomorrow days ride from Hoang.Ho.
And shan't be ready till the following day:
AT ten a. M, on Thursday, let us say
so twas arrangeds but Ching was wtde-awake:
Time by the forelock he resolved to take:
ana to the temple went at once, and read
Upon the tablet ITO the illustrous dead
Ihe chief OF mandarins, the great Goh-bangn
Scarce had he gone when stealthily came
Chang,
VINO re>d the same but, peering closer he
Spiea IN corner, what Ching had failed to see,
The words This tablets erected here
BY those to whom the great Cob Bang was
dear
SO on the appointed day-both innocent
AS babes of course--these honest fellows went
And took their distant station; and Ching said 1
Il can read, plainly TO the illustrious dead
The chief Of mandarins, the great Cob Bang, ""
land is that all that you can spens" said
Chang.
II see what you have re ad but Furthermore.
In smaller letters, toward the temple door,
Quite PLAIN: This tablet is erected here
BY those to whom the great Goh.Bang was
dear"
my sharpeyed friend, they are not there"
said Ching.
''They are said Chang, 'ff see any thing:
And clear as aylight" patent ewes, indeed
You have!" cried Ching DO you think can't
readF'
mot at this distance as I cam" Chang said,
IF what you say you saw is all you read"
In fine, they quarreled and their wrath IN
creased
TIL Chang said: LET, US leave 1t to the priest;
Lo! here he comes to meet us" "It is we'll"
Said honest Ching, mo falsehood will he tell"
The good man heard their artless story through
AND said: Il think, dear sirs, there must be
Blessed with such wondrous eyes as those Won
wear.
Inere IS no tablet with inscription there!
Tnere was one, 1t true; twas moved away

A GREAT mistake perhaps was matte when
Dr. Sherman named his great remedy

that at that time all remedies for the blood,

would have superseded alI other prepare
