THE CITILE n
MISCELL
EArALISM IN RUSSIA.
Perhaps It Is No Wonder That PEASANTS
Suffer from Famine and Plague.

Perhaps 1t Is No wonder That Peasants
Suffer from Famine and Plague.
The Russian peasant is like child,
ignorant OF the practical bearings OF
events, and utterly unable to cope with
them. Yet he never loses his faith IN
God. During the famine, when the
peasantry were living, or rather dying,
on bread made of pigweed, chaf and
other equally nutritious and more moi
some articles, they endured In submis-
sion. Goods will is at the bottom of it,"
said they. "He gave and He takes away"
A writer in Temple Bar gives the fol-
lowing illustration Of their fatalism,
and the excuses they invariably find for
inaction:
One day, a. Russian village official
was riding with me in search of some
strayed horses. The black soil was like
dust, and he sighed heavily as his mare
sank in the light stuff.
"Ah," he said, "what land is this? 1t
is like a woman broken with sorrow.
How can she find food for her child?"
Has it been so all summer" asked
"Not so, indeed. There was frost in
the spring, and men said frost and fair
weather. But then came the dryness,
and though mass was said in the fields,
it went to nothing. And then we dug
up the drunkards--"
''The what?"
THE drunkards, your honor. Often
it is that when the drunkards are
pulled out of their graves, and flung
into pools of water, that rain will come;
we know not why. But not only rain
came, but hail and fierce storms and
fire, and withered the little that was
grown Then after that, dryness again,
and now," he shrugged his shoulders,
''the famine"
''Must there be famine?' 1 asked.
Surely" he said, with smile, ''the
grain we have is soon eaten, and then
what?' !
"Will no provision be made for the
future?"
'Who should make provision? Now
we can buy much and eat much; after
wards, well, the little father will not
see us die!''
SO depending on the czar and public
charity, they rest content in making no
provision for the future.

A Snake Bird Charmer.

A New Yorker taking Sunday stroll
not far beyond the city limits was sur
prised at the conduct of two-score of
sparrows that futtered in the air foot
or so above bare rock In the midst of
an empty pasture. Now and then a
bird would light on the rock, but most
of the time the grayish-brown flock
poised uneasily just over the spot. 1t
looked at first as if the birds were catch
ing insects, though none was visible.
On the human intrude's nearer ap-
proach the birds still in the air took
flight, and almost as many more sprang
out of the grass Immediately about the
rock At the same instant the head
and rapidly moving tongue of large
blacksnale became visible just behind
the rock and he too made off. 1t was
apparently clear case of bird charm
ing by the snake.

When will you be Convinced?

Time and again you have been deceived,
and yet again you allow yourselves to be
trapped by INSCRIPTIONS dealers, of whom
you know little or nothing, while you can
so easily satisfy yourself. The evidence is
before you. Every household needs and
buys stimulant. No medicine known to
the world serves so many good purposes az
a good pure rye whisky, brandey or wine.
The best physicians recommend them.
