ment something like a banjo, which
will keep them amused for hours.
Singing, however, is the soldiers
greatest pleasure, and chorus singing
is great feature in the Russian ar
my's accomplishments. The number
Of songs an ordinary soldier knows is
beyond belief. Singing is encouraged
by the officers, and the men with the
best voices are especially rewarded.
Among illiterate people the singer will
always be able to exert a great infu-
ence, One has hardly to see Russian
regiment on the march to understand
what moral power the singers can give
the soldiers.
According to the latest returns for
1901, the statistics for the Russian ar
my are as follows, on peace footing:
Infantry, 900 battalions of foot, or
1000 bayonets; cavalry, So regi-
ments, or $1,000 sabers; artillery, 400
batteries, or 100 guns; Cossacks.
$4,000 men and 10S cannon. The gen.
eral total on peace footing, including
those not in the ranks, garrison
troops, and local reserve forces,
amounts to $4,000 men, with $4,000
horses. On war footing, including
the reserves, the soldiers of the car

The Russian soldiers diet is largely

toes, peas. beans, macaroni and vari-
Gus kinds OF porridges, eaten with on
ions and lard. Only half a pound of
meat is allowed each man daily, and
tho Russian pound is ten per cent less

consumed in great quantities when in
season. Three pounds of black rye
bread are included in the daily rations

purer than the ordinary bakers. the

The JoponeSe Maid.

A Japanese maid is now an absolute
necessity to the society woman who
desires to be strictly up to date.
Prominent women in New York are
all adopting the idea, and they are
finding that the pretty Jap women can
attend to their wants far better than
the French maid, who for SO long has
been in such demand by the smart set.
There are several reasons why tho
Japanese woman makes a better maid
than the French, German or English
woman. In the first place she is the
most clearly person on the face of the
earth, and that counts for whole lot.
Then she knows how to dress the hair
better than any of her sisters and she
knows more little secrets which are OF
value in milady's boudoir than the
woman Of any other nationality.

EXAMINING THE DOCTORS.

Partially Educated Physicians Menace
Health of the Public
Medical examinations in this state
are strict, but not severe, says the
Philadelphia Times. Certainly no per-
son should be allowed to take human
life into his hands unless he was able
to answer the few questions that are
asked, and yet those who fail consider
their fate a personal hardship. They
probably forget the interests of the
people they would practice upon, If al
lowed to hang out their signs. Con-
slider for moment that in many other
states in this country young men en-
ter at once into the practice of medi-
cine from imperfectly managed schools
which turn them out in short order. If
put to the Pennsylvania test, they
could never practice medicine, but
with imperfect educations, with scant
training, and as rule with little ma
tural aptitude for the work, they
physic the body and occasionally op-
crate upon it with knives and saws.
Considering the thousands of partially
educated doctors who are turned upon
the country every year, it Is wonderful
that the longevity of the nation is in
creasing. Still that may be explained
by the fact that most sensible people
nowadays are not liking medicine ex-
cept under compulsion, and many Of
our best doctors are stronger in de-
mands about food, exercise and fresh
air than they are about their prescrip-
tons. The wife Of one of the most
successful and most noted physicians
in this country complained the other
to give her children medicine, except
when the doctor was called out Of
town.-Philadelphia Times.
