The peasantry of Russia are very poor. but when they. get rich they scatter their money around more extravagantIy than any other people on earth. They want the best, and will pay big prices for it. The great market of the future will be in their increased wealth and increased wants. As it is now. the average Russian is not worth one-f fifth as much as the average Amer ican. There are vast territories where the earnings of the inhabitants are not more than 12 cents day. and altogether the foreign trade is now worth only five or six dollars per person.
 The people live upon almost nothing. few cents a day supplying them with their black bread and cabbage soup, and their clothes being the cheapest of the cheap.
 Most of these Russians are farmers, but there are a million and a half who are now working in the factories, and there are at least four millions who car ry on village industries in addition to tilling the soil. But all this l shall de- scribe as I go over the country.

 Shutting Up Shop.
 I spent one night at the great bazaar watching the closing of the different stores. It was g o'clck, the usual clos ing hour, but in this latitude as light as at o'clock in the United States. As I looked the clerks came out and be- gan to put up the shutters. They closed the whole front of each store, leaving a crack for the clerks and proprietor to come out.
 Before departing the merchant and his clerks crossed themselves. They crossed themselves and prayed when they stood outside and then watched one of the men pull the great doors together and turn the ponderous keys in the half doz- cn different locks. Then the merchant took a string and tied it about the iron work so. that it crossed the opening of the door He joined the ends of the string with wax and stamped this with his private seal. so that 1t was impossi- be to open the lock without cutting the string or breaking the seal Then there was another ttrl<ing of of hats on all sides. all crossed themselves again and muttered prayers, and all shook hands and went away to their homes.

 E This morning the little one was more lively than ever, and We heard from him the first real old-time song.'
 The conversation which passed upon Dunremy' tender tale harvested no furth- CT explanation. When there was a lag in the talk the narration built on the fol- lowing uncertain cupola:
 "Whenever 1 hear the canary sing err tain notes and snatches." said he, II re- member the sweet old lady next door nd that June day a year ago. We were old neighbOrs, you know, and my wife and I grew very fond of the. aged invalid and her daughter Often, on summer evening" we would go over and sit for awhile on the porch with the two The old lady's favorite song was Home, Sweet Home Again and again l heard her ing that old, sweet melody in the twilight Her voice was full of quavers and there were queer, uncertain pauses in the song and all that; but somehow she always rang true to us. Maybe it was because she loved the song so we'll "O+ course, we went to the funeral, and of course, the old lady's tavorite song was sung by the choir:

 Suddenly I darted glance at my wife. She was fookihg at me. Her face was ashen and her eyes were full of terror.
 As we walked across the lawn to our house the carriage were laying. My wife grasped my arm, inquring hoarsely:
 Did you hear it, too? .-
 Yes said
 "'The old ladys quavering voice join ing in as they sang the song she loved?
 Yes, I said.

zaar covers as much as three of our city squares. It is a long, low two-story building, composed of one solid mass of booths or stores opening out upon cor ridor, which Is separated from the street by a line of pillars like the cloisters of a monastery. The corridor is about ten feet wide It is painted white, and is well lighted As you stand in 1t you can see a moving mass of prominaders and shoppers which so fills 1t that you can not see the end of it. The stores are each about fifteen feet square with plate glass at the front reaching from floor to roof The most of the goods are in the windows and the wares are of the most gaudy description, There are many iewelry stores and brass and gold and silver wares meet your eyes at every few steps.
 Religious Merchandise.
 mart of the bazaar Is given up to icons and religious merchandise. These Russians are the most pious people on earth. They are always praying and the nriests have made them believe they have to nay as well as pray. They buy hrass and gold plated images of the Sa- vior to hang up in the houses and churches. Every living room has such an image and as a rule a candle is kept burning below it. The face of the Ma donna or saint is painted and the brass or gold so cut out that it forms the clothing and frame of the image. Some of these thing cost enormous. sums.

Managing a Husband.

The responsibility, of making or marr- ing marriage rests almost entirely with the girl. A man devotes eight or ten daily hours to office or shop, for it is his end of the business to keep things at home going, his province to pay the bills. The wife's end of the business is to man age him and make the home happy.
 She ought to put as much energy and vested capital into her department as the man exercises in his business. A strict attention to home duties on the part of the woman usually results in a happy household unless she makes the fatal mistake of managing every other branch in the home except the man.
 There are two motives in managing man. One is to manage him to ones own selfish ends; the other is to use tact and discretion to the end of making a better and happier man of him.
 People rarely quarrel over the large and important issues of life, but they will fight to the death about the things that don't matter. In most families there is some small bone of discord which crops up again and again at every meal-a mean, contemptible cause of strife that none agrees to bury decently once and for all. Between husband and wife some petty difference gradually grows which touches each on the raw whenever it ap- pears with Jack in the box regularity. A tactful, womanly management in the early stages would prevent the stupend- ous growing power of these matrimonial bogies.
 Maybe a mans temper is a little short" when he comes home from bus mess. No doubt he has faced twenty men with short tempers and small patience in the course of a day. His wife can etern- ally face one. and it is the privilege of her partnership to soothe and manage a tired man after a hard day spent in the turmoil of a city.

most all the stores of this vast bazaar. Not a clerk left before the shutters were up and employers and clerks departed together Indeed, I saw but one man who did not seal his store with wax. lie was a looking fellow and appar- ently contented himself with saying an extra prayer over the fastenings. AS l watched him said to my son Jack, who was with me: There, my boy, Is man whom you would do we'll to initiate. He believes in prayer and he trusts the Lord to take care of his goods"
 'Yes," said Jack, T see he does. but I also notice that he is mighty careful to lock his store with three separate keys before he gives the Lord chance.
 Indeed, Jack is surprised at the pray ing. He says it keeps the Russians busy crossing themselves before all the shrines and churches. They do this as they go along the streets, no matter what their class or condition. The military officer and the noble. the peasant and the droscn- ky driver never passes a church without lifting his hat and saying a prayer. We see men kneelng on the steps before the closed doors of tho churches, and within them they may be always found, oowlng their heads to the stone floors in thelr devotions. Any one who imagines the Greek Church is dead should come to Russia. These people are not ashamed of their religion. and they practice It more openly than we do ours.
 Peddling in Russia.
 I am surprised at the backward meth ods of Russian business. Our American invaders should come here and study the situation. They will find many things the same as in the middle ages. There are open-air markets, where all sorts of things are sold. and peddlers go through
