RUSSIA RECOGNIZES
PEASANT AND NOBLE
Middle Class Is Non-Existant
Under Present Law.

Contrary to the laws existing in
England and Sweden, in Russia when
a lady belonging to titled family mar
ries Russian without title she takes
her husbands name entirely, and the
only right left to her, of her, former
title Is to write on her visiting cards
and official papers Mrs. So-and-So.
born Princess. Countess or baroness
So-and-So." Her children are called by
their fathers name. There are only a
few exceptions to this rule.
In Russia no middle class or gentry
are known. There are only mobiles and
peasants. The. .czar, however. grants
sometimes for special merit the right to
be styled a nobleman. and also for the
same reason the titles OF count and
baron. and OCCASIONALLY that Of prince.
All those merchants who. have kept
their firms always flourishing for a
hundred years have the right to receive
the foreign title of baron. This law
was made by Peter the Great more
than 200 years ago, but the merchants
very seldom accent this German title
and generally decline the privilege.
In former days when the peasants
were still slaves they had no family
names. but were called by their fathers
Christian name. Peters son was called
son of Peter--in Russian Petrov. So
also Smirnov-Simon's son; Ivanov--
VANS (John) son, and SO on. When
slavery was abolished and the emanci-
patton proclaimed by the Emperor Al
exander II. they all kept these names.
since then many of them have received
the right to belong to the class of
mobiles.
The Russian clergy, belonging to the
class of peasants. for it very seldom
happens that mobiles become priests,
have special family names. Their
