LOW WAGES IN RUSSIA.
Farm Laborers Get Little Above a
Bare Subsistence.

The extreme poverty and the low
standard of living of peasants from
whom the Russian agricultural labor
ers are recruited assure a low level of
wages for agricultural labor. The av-
erage wages will appear almost In
credibly low from an American point
of view, Notwithstanding the general
complaints of the estate holders con-
corning the unreasonable demands OF
the laborers.
According to an official investigation
embracing the decade OF 1SS2-1S91, the
average annual wages for a male agri-
cultural worker in Russia were less
than $32 and for a female worker less
than $18. To this must be added the
cost of subsistence, which is equally
low, being on an average $24 for a
male and $22 for a female worker for
a whole year.; so that the average
cost of employing a laborer for the
entire year is equal to only $55 for
the male and $40 for the female.
The wages for the summer season
of five months are almost equal to
the annual wages. being $22 for the
male and S13 for the female laborer.

PHOTOGRAPHY AND FINE ART.
Camera Pictures Much More Than Nc
chanical Reproduction.

Few persons could be found who
would deny the claims of photography
to rank among the fine arts, when
skillully used and properly controlled,
since the photography Of OF to-day Is
something more than a mechanical re-
production. The individuality Of the
photographer is being expressed in
his work almost as much as Is that of
the painter. The painter still has the
advantage. for while he may give As
an impression fuller than that made by
nature upon the eye, the photographer
can deal only with that which is OBJ
served with such unerring fidelity and
skill by a mechanical eye. Compost
ton is therefore one Of the necessary
principles to the photographer, who
thus supplies the mechanical eye with
a mind, yet he must study lighting at
different hours of the day and varying
weather conditions that he may know
the best effects to be obtained. Many
otherwise successful photographers
need to realize that scientific accuracy
is not necessarily artistic truth, SO
that, while one actualizes, the definite
sharpness may be softened and the ef-
feet ennanced.-Home Magazine.

Sounded Praises Of Soap.

In q guide to etiquette published
early in the last century the writer
says that soap does not irritate the
complexion; some Of the finest COM
p1exions we have known have been
regularly washed with soap every day"
The same authority remarks that the
daily bath is now the rule rather than
the exception, and common has
triumphed over the decision that wash
ing was injurious" And then the
writer has a dig at her great-grand-
mother, whose only additions con-
sisted m wetting her cheeks with q
cambria handkerchief dipped In rose.

gard to the BATH" adds this early Vic
torian dictator. 1T must be borne In
mind that We only refer to those In

K A FAIRY TALE.
The Story Of Postum Cereal In Words
and Pictures.

The growth Of the Postum Cereal
90. is like a fairy tale. but 1t Is true,
every word of 1t.
1.-THE Door Unbclted" is the title OF
a charming little booklet just issued
by the Company which tells, and IL
l~ustrates, the story OF this remark
able growth. 1t takes the reader from
the little white barn in which the
business was started Jan. l, 1895,
through the palatial Offices and great
factory buildings of the White City"
that comprise Postumville, Battle
Creek, Mich.
The little white barn, SO carefully
preserved, is a most interesting build
ing, for it represents the humble be-
ginning of one of the country's great
est manufacturing enterprises OF to-
day, an enterprise that has grown
from this little barn to a whole city
Of factory buildings within but little
more than ten years.
No less interesting Is the quaint Of
fetal home Of the Postum Cereal co.
The general office building of Mr.. Post
and his associates is a reproduction OF
the Shakespeare house at Stratford-
on-Avon, and upon the house and It's
furnishings has been expended s
sums Of money, until the rooms are
more like the drawing rooms OF the
mansions of our multi-millionaires
than like Offices.
That Mr.. Post has believed thor
oughly in the idea of giving to his
employees attractive and healthful
work rooms is proven not only by the
general office building of the Company
and it's furnishings, but by his rae
tories as well, and of all of these
things this beautiful little booklet tells
the interesting story. 1t will be sent
to anyone on request.

Checked Attempt at Monopoly.

Trusts were sometimes dealt with
summarily in old England. For IN
stance, the records of the Brewers
company show that ION Monday, July
80, 1922, Robert Chichele, the mayor OF
London, sent for the masters and IL
of the most worthy of our company to
appear at the Guildhall for selling dear
ale. After much dispute about the
price and quantity of malt, wherein
Whityngtone, the late mayor, declared
that the brewers had ridden into the
country and forestalled the malt, to
raise it's price, they were convicted in
the penalty of $40 (s10o), which OBJ
jecting to, the masters were ordered
to be kept in prison in the chamber
lain's custody until they should pay 1t,
or find security for the payment
thereof"

All Red.

A West Philadelphia youth was be-
ing taught the festive game of poker
the other night, and after the relative
value of pairs, threes, Pushes and
straights had been explained to him
play was started. After half an hour
or SO he surprised the others in the
game by asking: What is it when
all the cards are of the same COLOR"
"a f1ush," was the reply. Then I'll
bet six dollars" and, suiting the action
to his words, he threw that amount
into the pot. The others, frightened
by the play, wisely" laid down two
pairs and threes, which were held
against the novice, and he scooped in
the pot, laying face up on the table
three hearts and two diamonds. Dis
may and further explanations from
his instructors naturally followed

seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa-

In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
q builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and q
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days 1t
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures wi remedies
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. By tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained a won

Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power owe disease.
She maintained that just as nature sc
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods OF
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex
pressly designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi-
cines for her own family and friends.

that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them. @
All this SO far was done freely, with
out money and without price, as 9
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. It's length and severity were toe

of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, SO when the Centen'

of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's

orioin of Term "Grocer.n

According to %etymology, a retail
grocer" is as absolute an impossibility
as a weekly journal" A grocer, or
"grosser' as it used to be spelled, is
really a trader Gin gross"-that is to
say, in large quantities, wholesale
E~nglishmen of other days spoke o.
"grossers of fish" and "grossers OF
wine" and an act of Edward III. ex'
pressly mentions that "grossers' deal
in all manner of goods. In those days
"spicer" was the word for grocer" In
the modern sense. But it happened
that the Grocers' company, founded in
the fourteenth century, specialized in
spicery and so grocer" gradually took
the place of ~"spicer."

GAINED 81 POUNDS
Persistent Aneemia Cured by DR..
Williams Pink Pills After Other
Remedies Had Failed.

"When I began taking DR.. Williams
Pink Pills" says Mrs. Nathaniel Field,
of St. Adams, Somerset county, Maine,
sI was the palest, most bloodless person
you could imagine. My tongue and
gums were colorless and my fingers and
r were like wax. I had two doctors
and they pronounced my trouble anmmia.
Ihad spells of vomiting, could not eat,
in fact, did not dare to, I had such dis
tress after eating. My stomach was filed
with gas which caused me awful agony.
The backache I suffered was at times
almost unbearable and the least exertion
made my heart beat so fast that l could
hardly breathe. But the worst Of all was
the splitting neuralgia headache which
never leftmefor seven weeks. About this
time I had had several numb spells. My
limbs would be cold and without any
feeling and the most deathly sensations
would come over me.
"Nothing had helped mi until I began
taking DIR. Williams Pink Pills, in fact,
I had grown worse every day. After I
had taken the pills a short time I could
see hat they were benefiting me and
II morning | awoke entirely free from
pain. The distress after eating disap-
peared and in three weeks I could eat
anything I wanted and suffer no incon-
venience. I also slept soundly. I have
taken several boxes of the pills and have
gained in weight from 1870 to 154 pounds
and am perfectly well now"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills cure anamia
because they actually make new blood.
For rheumatism, indigestion, nervous
headaches and many forms of weakness
they are recommended even if ordinary
medicines have failed. They are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on
receipt of price, 80 cents per box, six
boxes for $3.50, by the DIR. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

Wrong Method Of Teaching.

-
Consul Paul Nash, Of Venice. writes:
Hundreds Of well-educated Americans
annually pass through Venice and, al
though probably nine-tenths of them
have had several years OF instruction
in a European language, not one
tenth are capable of speaking a dozen
connected words Of anything but Eng
lish. Even college graduates, fresh
from prize-winning in French or Ger
man, are generally unable to speak
either language, although capable of
writing an excellent thesis on their
history, philology, syntax and litera-
ture. This is the result of teaching
French and German In much the same
way that Latin and Greek are taught"
