a Russian Deathbed.

"A scatbing ~arraignment OF the real
rulers of Russia-the priests Of the Or
thodox Church-is a leading article in
the Worlds Work. Mr.. Percivai Glib
bon. in his account of "Thc Church's
Blight on Russia" tells the following
incident to show the fatal grip of q
besotted clergy On the ignorant Russian
%peasantry:
There is q dreadful tale which have
told before in another place. 1t was
given me us %authetic, to illustrate the
condition Of the priesthood Of the Or
thodox Church. Let it be a picture. A
h!tt, in which q man lies dying, sodden
with fear lest he may pas; ere the last
sacrament be administered to Him.
The shaggy, long-robed pope has come.
and the gear is laid ready; but ere he
will get to his work and unburden the
DOOR soul he will have an enhanced
price for it. The wife of the dying
man comes from the side of the
soualid bed and pleads with him. He
leers and is obdurate. Then Il son will
compel him, aud they fight about the
room, while the shaking patient stares
| from his pillow. The priest seizes the
| bread and tries to break it. for broken
bread may not be blessed, while tn"
| son Of the dying man grasps his arm to
| save it, and in the wrestle the little,
| loaf crumbles at last, and the sick mas
| closes his eyes with u sigh OF despair,
awaiting damnation.

No Charge For Insects.

Anent the curious habit of that fam
GUS naturalist, Francis T. auckland
who was usually accompanied on his
travels by his pet monkey, the follow
ing story is told:
At g certain railway station tie
naturalist applied for a ticket for the
animal. The man at the booking Office
went carefully over his schedule OF
charges for animals.
Cows is cows" quoth he, land SO
is donkeys. Cats is dogs, and fowls
is likewise. Sir, that'll have to so
as a dawg," pointing to the monkey.
. We'll what will this go as?'
laughed the naturalist, pulling a live
tortoise from his pocket.
As to this the schedule did not al
ford any reformation, and the clerk
turned in scorn from its perusal.

Modern Romeo and Juliet.

Julietywas the ideal age, about FOUR
teen. She wore a red coat that just
came down to her boot tops and she
had on q big black hat that parity
Swallowed her strikingly pretty race.
She had just come out Of Sunday
school with a companion who was too
young to figure as the nurse by coz
p~arison, yet was old enough to sympas
thize with the commotion that was
raging in Juliet's heart.
Side by side the two girls walked
slowly up the cross street and then,
as if they were measuring their steps.
they turned about and returned TO the
corner. When they reached a point
where Juliet could see a young man
who was standing half way down the
block talking to a group Of his friends.
she cast a demure glance in his dlrec-
tion-but quite as though she were
looking miles beyond him-and then
turned about and retraced her steps
IN the side street. Slowly she walked
No and slowly she walked back again.
Just s she reached the corner-lt
was beautifully timed-Romeo crossed
her path. Romeo was at the stage IN
his youth when he probably would re-
fer to the maid as "a little girl"
though she was almost up to his shout
der. He. was undeuia3ly good look;
ing. and he was also courteous, for he
bowed to the two girls and took of his
hat. with a sweep as he met them.
But he went on his way, leaving Juliet
standing On the corner with an costa
tic glow in her: eyes and one hand
messed to her coat over her heart
