THE KALEIDOSCOPE

For the last time, in all probability, the Russian Double Eagle hag was worn in honour of Russia-a big stock had been provided before the Revolu- tion-and if a story told in the 'Novoe Vremya" a few days ago be true, the disappearance of the bird as a national emblem should be welcomed by all Russians, whatever they may think of the Romanoffs, whose personal flag is adorned According to the PetrOBrud journal, the artist who designed the double e-headed eagle made himself model by killing two well-developed chickens and artisticaLy posing them for the purpose. After which he and a few friends banqueted off the unfor- tunate birds.
 When the Russian eagle is a thing of the past there will still remain at least five national eagles. Like the Russian, two of these. those of Aus the eagles synbolical of the United States, Mexico, and Germany have only one head. The Mexican and the American eagles alone at all resemble the actual bird; but the American specimen was severely criticised about 10 years ago because of an over abundance of plumage, and as the re- suit of a newspaper agitation against it's trousers" it was remodelled and the handicap to it's legs removed.
 NJ. Kerenskys substitution of the voluntary salute for the compulsory in the Russian army may seem a small matter to the man in our streets though appalling to our martinets. In reality 1t possesses a significance un- pondered by either. Until the ReVolu ton, military regulations of the Mus covite forces perpetuated degrading traditions. The Emperor Paul was snub-nosed man. so all his snub -nosed soldiers were brigaded together. in compliment to their sovereign.
 The old Prussian army grouped to- gether it's giants; the Russian army collected into regiments poct marked men and others unhappily distinguish ed by physical peculiarity. Idiosyn- crasies of the kind extended farther At a coronation soldiers lining the route, at the word of command, blew their noses with titanic violence. lest they should sneeze as the Emperor passed, and so bring him misfortune, The new form of salute is a symbol of from unguessed absurdi- ty and tyranny
