When a Russian peasant falls into
temporary difficulties he puts wallet
over his shoulder, goes out among the
neighboring villages and gets it speed
lily filled with what is known as "mor-
sells. He enters every house but
makes no formal request; only the
mistress of the house feels the mean
ing of the wallet and drops morsel
into it silently behind his back; and
she will do so though the morsel be
her last and her own husband be
obliged to assume the beggar's wallet
himself Oh the morrow. The touching
and respectful tenderness of the poor
for the poor is a natural encourage
ment to the professional beggar, and
there are whole villages in Russia
where the people, every man of them,
in addition to their occupations as
owners and cultivators of land, have
for generations practiced beggary as
their regular auxiliary trade.
On single estate in Moscow prov
ince there are fifty-two of these begga:

now very much less lucrative than it
used to be in consequence of the
growing impoverishment Of their pa

But much graver forms of pauper-

Two variety performers came to Boston
last week looking for an engagement at one

They did not have money enough TO hire

they were looking rather seedy in appearance,
they knew tina; 20 landlady would trust
them without some sort of security.
Finally one of them named Grady pro-
posed the following:

he, I'VE would be ell right, for we could tell

ashes and get il checked at some depot
This plan WAS thought to be feasible. and
the pair went hunting about for big box
They would have preferred one made Of wood,
but could not get it, and the next best thing
proved TO be two big pastebosrd boxes such
as tailors use. These were taken into g third
class hotel, where the performers knew the
clerk, and the latter allowed them to fill the
boxes from the ash pile. The boxes were then
carefully tied together aud marked 1t was

scheme, when they heard great connection
In the baggage room 1t seems that the ashes
with which the boxes had been flied was hot
and had set the paSteboard afire, causing
great CONSERVATION among the baggage men.
The guilty pair, seeing at a glance what the
trouble was, made good their escape, but they
were afraid TO use the check In getting a

OLD LETTERS.

Ihold in my hand these letters
And the fire CLEANS up in the CRATE;
Shall throw them into the embers
And leave them there to their fstef
So long ago they were written
So long been hidden away,
While the hands that penned them ere
folded
Over silent hearts today.
Here is one from spirit sister
Whose life, like Swallowed stream.
Flowed on so softly, gently,
TIL it disappeared like dream.
On her lips the name of lover
She had not dared TO wed,
Her life went out of the darkness
To glorious light instead
And here is one from another
The rose at her bridal feast
Had scarcely fallen and faded
Ere death struck cold at her breast,
When life was fairest and sweetest
To yield its rich nectar up;
This was the fate that was waiting
This was the birterest cup.
There are letters still more sacred
So tender and fond and true
hold them now in reverence,
While my eyes are moist with dew
Shall burn them; Oh, cannoti
Tied up with sable thread,
shall put them back with che treasures
Which whisper yet of the dead

Home Markets Aie Wanted.

IL Anrfloan farmers are Mt present
the result Of that policy which led them
to seek f"rrign markets instead Of deve-
oping home markets. They increased
their crops until the, became dependent
on foreign markets, and when at last they
were brought into close competition with
Russia, India. Australia and South Amer
lea they found they had overproduced.
Prices decliued to meet this competition
and for time aud until home markets eau
he more widely developed farmers may
suffer somewhat from the effects of that
old policy
Vast changes In methods and facilities
Of transportation have brought nations
together which ", re- before too remote to
rival one another, Our farmers, who to-
day seek foreign markets, are direct COM
petttors with Asiatic and South American
semi-barbarians. They know this and for
some time have been adapting themselves
to the new conditions. 1t Is seen
In the changed proportions OF the
agricultural to other classes OF our
people. We have yet for time

policy. which tempted us with prices to

only u treachcrous will o'-the- wisp lead

A Term not Understood.

A correspondent asks the Journal the
meaning OF the word "sloyd' as applied
to educational systems.
1t Is n name given to the Swedish meth
cd Of manual training, and 1t has already
been introduced into some Of the best of
our industrial schools, and the result has
been satisfactory. This method as
serts that symmetrical physical de-
velopment Is a means OF symmetri-
cal mental development. aud 1t
aims at the acquisition of general manual
deIterity. 1t educates the right and left
hand alike. Sloyd claims as a result that
taste for and love Of good work. as well
A. . respect for manual work. is instilled,
while the hand aud eve are being trained
and also that the thinking powers and
moral perceptions are trained In habits Of
order, exsctness, cleanliness, attention,
aud Industry.
An object once begun is always COM
pleted. The most careful, exact con-
struction of each article is required. The
use Of various tools necessitstes many
postures, and gives rise to much thought
in the exact copying of the
design. Each article must be worked
from some design or model. and when
finished must be useful. There Is
no haphszard work in 5loyd. No
painting or polishing is allowed
aud care and skill become strictly neces-
sary. The article must be honest work.
The method begins with articles extremely
simple. The knife is then used as the
principle tool, and the models should be
SO easy to copy that the child does not
become weary. Gradually. models which
require more time and tools are given.
