The Russian Peasant.

The Rev. DIR. George washburn. who
lived In Constantinopic for forty-sis
years and has Just retired from the
presidency OF Roberts College. has
Travelled much In Russia and made n
close study OF the Russian peasant.
To the casual observer the moujik Is
uncouth and embarrassing. but he Is.
In DR.. washburn's opinion. the most
Interesting peasant In all Europe. In
religion ne is an idcaiist. He has little
knowledge OF the scriptures. although
the Russian government favors their
circulation. but when he studies the
Bible. the teaching OF the brotherhood
OF man is that which most appeals to
him. In many instances this ideal
teaching has been followed to what
would in this country be considered
absurd lengths.
The peasants believe most thor
oughly in their religion. and carry that
belief to the extreme that they con.
slider the Russian orthodox church the
only true Christian faith. 1t Is argued
by them that the Christian religion
was first given to the Latin races. but
those races failed to extend 1t through
out the world. Then the Germanic
races received the mission. but they.
too. in Russian opinion, have failed.
Now. It is held. the time is ripe for the
Slavonic races to take up the work
and the true Slav confidently expects
that in order to carry out the mission.

Cure by Cutieura.

AT four months old my baby's face
and body were SO covered with sores
and large scales you could not tell
what she, looked like. No child ever
had worse case. Her face was being
eaten away. and even her finger nails
fell off. 1t itched SO she could not
sleep, and for many weary lights we
could get no rest. At last we got

NORWAY'S WINTER FUN.
Skees Furnish Not Only Sport but
 Necessary Means of Travel.

Skees Furnish Not Only Sport but
 Necessary Means of Travel.
 It Is during the Norwegian winter that the most characteristic sports in that country hold sway. When the fiords are frozen after the snow has fallen, the water is covered with the bright, shining ice, and, like the gulls during the summer, the Norwegian boys glide about on their skates where. In July and August they had crossed In sailing boats. But when the snow covers mountain, valley, and ford many feet deep, snowshoeing, or ski lobning, as 1t is called in Norway, be- comes universal, not merely as a sport, but also as a necessary way of travelling.
 The skees are made of wood, gener- ally of ash. It is the most suitable wood for the purpose, but they can also be made out of pine, or birch, or of almost any wood in which the grain runs straight, and which is not too knotted. But woods like ash, which Is both hard and flexible, are admira- bly, adapted for skee-making. The skees are some ten feet long and about four inches broad, and taper up in front In graceful curve. A very slight groove about half an inch wide runs all along the middle of the skee from front to back, giving a tendency to keep 1t steady In one direction, and to prevent 1t, to some extent, from slid ing to one side. About an inch back of the middle of the skee, loop is made out of twisted willow, or, in re- cent years, frequently out of leather covered bamboo, forming firm but flexible support for the foot about two inches back of the toe. Another loop of leather covered bamboo runs from the base of the loop for the toes and all around the heel, while one strap combines the two sides of this loop un- der the foot. The skee-runner then finishes the fastening by buckling & strap over his instep.
 This peculiar arrangement of loops and straps allows the runner to move his heel in a vertical direction so far that he could, although with effort, put his knee down to the skee in front of him, while his toes still remain in the loop; but in horizontal direction the foot Is arrested; the skee must fol- low every small movement of the foot to the right or left.-St. Nicholas.

Whether certain privileges and ex-

Whether certain privileges and ex- emptions appertaining to mature years afford adequate compensation for the loss of youths energy and capacity for enjoyment is a matter that will proba
 bly be viewed differently by different people. It is likely, however, that most of those on the shady side of 40 would be glad enough to surrender a good part of their experience and wis dom fin exchange for the yivacity and activity of 21. There is something to be said for the blessings of maturity, nevertheless. Taking the merely phy
 sical phase of the matter for instance, we find that those past middle age are largely exempt from certain of the most dangerous and destructive dis eases. Typhoid fever is the scourge of the young and comparatively rarely attacks people of mature years. The same things may be said of appendI- cits, while "the great white plague" pulmonary tuberculosis, or consump- tion-fnds hree-fourths of its victims among those below 30 years of age. There are other diseases in which, to a greater or less extent, youtr suffers heavily as compared with maturity. Coming to the sentimental side of the case we may admit that youth has the greater capacity for enjoyment, be- cause the heyday in the blood is tame when middle age Is reached; yet, as has been intlmated, experience and worldly wisdom-to say nothing of un- worldly wisdom-go far to compensate the sober and sedate oldster for the loss of his youthful zest and keenness. Maturity and even old age have their advantages In other ways. It is an age in which the cry is for young men, yet the wisdom of that cry is coming to be doubted. Mere youthful energy does not count for everything as em
 ployers and corporations which have drawn the age line are beginning to discover. Ii is becoming more and more evident that no amount of na- tive ability will take the place of that good Judgment which Is based upon aNludl VApCIl lldl lLC of barring out men because of their age results also In barring out Quali- ties which younger men cannot in the nature of things, possess. Young men for action, old men for counsel, Is an adage which Is as ancient as 1t Is well founded. The world has not yet evolv- ed men who with the yigor and vivac- ity of youth combine the Judgment and experience of maturer years. In til such a combination shall have been attained there Is going to be room even in the busiest of mundane activities for him who has learned his lesson In the school of experience, even though his hair has turned gray while he was going to school. In short, maturity and earlier old age still have place in human affairs both practical and senti- mental. Even the last stage of all, spe- clfied by the pessimistic Jacques, Is neither useless nor depressing, since fl is-or 1t should be-accompanied by love, honor, obedience, troops of friends the concomitants of honorable old age. There is room in the world for gray hairs and 1t will be barren sort of world when there Is not.

The Choice of a Wife.

A German professor selects woman who can merely stew prunes not be- cause stewing prunes and reading Pro- clus make a delightful harmony, but because he wants his prunes stewed for him and chooses to read Proclus by himself. A fullness of sympathy, a sharing of life with one another, is scarcely ever looked for except in a narrow, conventional sense. Men like to come home and find a blazing fire and a smiling face and an hour of re- taxation. Their serious thoughts and earnest aims in life they keep on one side. And this is the carrying out of love and marriage almost everywhere In the world, and this the degrading of women by both.-From One of Mrs. Browning's Letters, 1S4o.

The declaration by Charles s.

It Is only natural that 1t won early recogni. ton as truth among those in voca. ton attracting, as railroading con- fessedly does, large share of the best ability of the age.
 Concurrently with railway mana. gers, the managers of all kinds Of theatrical and other amusements, an. other vocation demanding the most alert intelligence, recognized this same truth, and the huge crop of posters, Autographs and other window and wall paper" they had long maintained disappeared.

But a small fraction of the mothers of the country enjoyed the privilege of listening to the Presidents latest dIsQuisition on race suicide, but we infer from the speakers own alarm that a majority not only of those pres ent but of all mothers had prejudged the case. It is this disheartening fact that arouses some doubt as to the prac- tical value of the Presidents oft-re- peated appeals. The great question was settled before he realized the i'm pending disaster, and a reversal of the decision becomes more improbable every year. Such is the plain truth, regardless of the merits of a very one sided controversy, and if it were not for the Presidents delight in the ex- ercise of his energy and versatility it might be suggested that he could save himself much wear and tear by aban- doning the hopeless task of persuasion. But as the only rest he really enjoys is a change of work, every new contri- button that he makes to the debate must be deemed a refreshing employ ment of his argumentative powers which helps to keep him in good form without disturbing the mothers or the country.
