something better than severity goes to
make soldiers of Russian peasants,
and that something is powerful spir-
1t Of camaraderle. A high Russian
officer does not hesitate to joke with
his men.
When the commanding officer meets
his troops for the first time in the
morning, he calls out cordially, Good
morning! The men reply with a pc
cul1ar' long, rafting shout, your
good health, your excellency!'
When a maneuver is executed to
the commanders satisfaction, he
shouts congratulations to the men, and
they respond all together, "We are
glad you like it."

The development Of the trolley sys-
tenn in New England, where 1t has
made the greatest progress. is begin
ming to attract wide attention, espe-
clally as 1t promises to become a dam
gerous competitor with the steam rail
road system. Already rails of the same
weight are used on the electric as on
the steam roads and well nigh equal
speed is made in rural districts, white
greater speed Is made inside city lin
its. The cars are being made nearly
as large II not so heavy as those on
steam roads, and In nearly all country
places mails and light freight are car
ried as well as passengers. Trolley
lines are connecting country towns
which only could be reached by
wagons, and by bringing them into
communication with railroad stations
are developing their business. Nearly
every State in New England can now
be crossed, north and south and east
and west by electric cars and in some
cases cities as far apart as Portland,
Boston, Providence, Hartford and New
York have been connected by 1.-The
broomstlck train" One Of the latest
developments of the system is the use
for the first time by a steam and a
trolley road Of the same track. The
New York Central Is to use q stretch
Of track near Oxford, Mass, about FIVE
miles from Worcester, for delivery of
coal to section it cannot now reach
easily. This track was laid and Is
used by the Worcester and South
bridge Street railway. The fact that
locomotive and freight. cars can be
run upon rails originally laid for troll
ley cars is opening up a wide field Of
speculative possibilities among rail-
road people. The Boston Advertiser
says that 1.-THE New Haven road has
already done something In the way
of third rail- connections with steam
road track, and Of course everybody
understands that the time will come
when steam and trolley roads will be
run as parts Of one system, the street
railways acting as feeders to the main
line Of steam track"

Russia In the past has never been
the equal Of some of the western coun-
tries in wealth, finance, industry, agri-
culture, education and culture. Yet
somehow she has come up. Somehow,
with her crude organization and gen
eral poverty, she has borne the success
sive economic and political shocks of
great wars. Somehow, as her terri
torial march to the Pacific has proved,
she has shown an incontestable superb
ority In force to the Asiatics with
whom she has come in contact-except
possibly the Japanese. Even the war
like Turk has succumbed before her.

baggagenien and all other station en-
pioyes are positively forbidden to ac-
cept tips" The reason for this step,
the president says, Is the desire Of the
road to furnish equal service to all its
patrons, a task which It cannot ac-
complish SO long as the practice of tip
ping continues. This phase of the
natter-the injustice which the man
who tips inficts upon the man who
Is one which is not always kept in
mind, yet it involves a serious moral
question. One accompanies his applf-
cation with half-dollar, the other Of
fers nothing. Human nature would
not be human nature If the employee
did not feel a little inclined to favor
the man who has tipped him. But
what Is 1t that the Upper has bought
Not service-he was entitled to that by
right--but precedence and dispropor-
Tomato attentions, things to which he
was not entitled and which he cannot
have without robbing his neighbor.
The tip in such case is but q bride.
One cannot, however, dispose of the
whole matter Of tipping in word. The
practice is too well rooted to be blown
away with a breath, and even If that
were possible, 1t is a question If it
would be wholly desirable. Certainly
1t would work some injustice and per-
haps some hardship. There Is the tip
which speaks Of cordial recognition
Of special service, performed, perhaps,
at some sacrifice Of comfort or con-
venience. That, surely, might remain.
There Is, too, the tip which serves as
cloak for worthy charity and an hon.
est desire to assist. That, also, Is
honorable, at least on the part Of the
giver; and those who boast that they
"never give a tip" may well be sus-
pected of hiding meanness behind q
mask of principle.

true proverb. 1t Is also true that this change

how they vfeweds active in the churches as any
where else Is to this steady shifting Of ideals and
opinions that the question remains perennial with the
Methodists.
In the early Discipline Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church America the whole matter dismissed In a
prohibition to members against taking such diversions

the prohibition the Discipline and that there loss
OF true religion to themselves.
1t became evident that the clause in the Discipline
needed amendment; that che church must authortavey
specify what things could not be permitted to the Meth
