SERVANTS IN RUSSIA.

THE Russian servant is hired for
one year. and is told exactly what
1 his particular duty IS TO be He
then sticks to that one duty. As long
as each servant faithfully performs the
special daties Of his position all Is well;
but the neglectful butler. or cook. or
coachman. is sent by the employer with
a written note TO the police judge, who
after carefully investigating the COM
plants has a right 70 order bodily pun
ishment or TO write a bad mark in the
book kept for this purpose.
In great Russian households often
from twenty to fifty servants are kept.
and even the pliddle-class families have
two 10 four. The pay Of these ser
wants varies according to the line OF
work. While the chiefs in the kitch-
ems Of wealthy families often receive
$500 a year, a cook in an oru'harI
citizens employ gets no more imam az
a year. and a maid-of-all-worK never
gets more than &5 year Al Easter
every servant gets present, generally
suit or dress.
Every other Sunday the servants In
Russian household are entirely free
Their work stops Saturday night after
supper. when the servants leave the
5s, r,orning The employers never ask
where or how the free time is spent
Russian servants Will pilfer Since
Russian ladies leave everything 70 the
care OF the servants, Ihe latter 90 as
they please.
The men servants smoke cigars be-
longing to their masters. and pay FREE
0uent visits 10 the wine cellars OF the
house. but a gentleman would consider
II 'demeaning himself TO prosecute a
servant for this.
The Russian servants viii talk about
fellow-scrvants but never about their
employers Even when they quit one
place and take se-~ice in another family
they would ne mention anything
about their former masters. This dis
erection goes so far that even the law
considers IL. In Russia the law excludes
servants as witnesses against their for
mer or present employers, so long. at
least. as these servants are not sus-
pected OF having taken part in the
crime.
