I siastical ruler, but was simply the
head of the civil authority; while the
Gar was as well the head of the
church as the head of the govern
ment
Rivers take their color from the
beds in which they flow, so religions
assume the forms and customs of the
people who use them. For instance:
Romanism is not so full of idolatrv
and superstition in enlightened
America and France as it is in igno-
rant Spain or the darkened states of
South America.
The converse of this proposition is
just as true-religions have their in
huence on the people who adopt them.
They are the molds in which the
people receive their cast. So if we
wish to know about the Russians, we
cannot learn it better than by study
ing their religion.
In Christianizing Russia more force
was used than persuasion. The
sword as with Mahomet was the most
effective instrument. Although the
christian religion was propagated in
the empire as early as S66, yet it
was left till the reign of Vladimir to
select the form and establish it in
the nation. He sent emmissaries
east and west to select some form of
divine worship. These ambassadors
examined the Latin, Mohammedan
and Greek rites and doctrines and
the emperor selected the Greek be-
cause it was the most imposing.
This was prior to the great schism
which separated the eastern Cor
| Creek church, and the western Cor
I Latin) church. The Gar was estab-
| lished as the head of the church in
1867.
The creed of the Greek or Russian
church is like that of the Roman
Catholic with few exceptions. The
first and most important difference
and that which caused the division
was the rejection by the Greek church
of the supremacy of the Pope of
Rome. The Greek church also re-
iects image worship which is so prev
alent in the Romish church; and they
reject the doctrine of the procession
of the Holy Spirit from the Son of
God. The Greek church does not
believe that baptism by sprinkling is
valid.
The church and state is one in Rus
sia in a manner directly opposite to
the teachings of Romanism. Rome
teaches that the church is ruler of
the state. As Hildebrand puts it
/ the relations between the church and
state are like those of the sun and
moon. In Russia the state is the
sun and the churchis the moon. The
state has complete control over the
church. Rome says "Let every soul
be subject unto the higher powers"
and the higher power she defines is
the Pope Russia carries out the same
teaching. but with her the "higher
rower" is the Emperor. His corona
ton is a religious event, more like
the crowning of hope than of a
civil ruler. He crowns himself with
his own hands, to show that there are
none exalted or sacred enough to per-
form th.t rite.

Why Constipation Injuries.

The bowels are the natural sewer
age system of the body. When they
become obstructed by constipation a
part of the poisonous matter which
they should carry off is absorbed in
to the system, making you feel dull
and stupid, and interfering with the
digestion and assimilation of food.
This condition is quickly relieved by
Chamberlain Tablets. Obtainable

When to Sow Oats.

W. L. Nelson, who is in charge
Of the crop reporting service OF

riculture. but aftor all it will APP
parently nay to take time to put
good 4 seed into a well-prepared
seedbed, rather than to "mud i'm
the crop. "Taking the average
for the last IA years, just about
half the crop-49.1 per cent-has
been in by April 1, and the aver
age yield has been 1913 bsshels.
For the eight years when the
crop went in earlier than the
average the yield was 236 BUSH
els, while for the six later.than-
average years the yield was "a a
bushels. s'In 1910 the crop was
sown very early, S9.7 per cent
being in by April /. The yield
Of 1872 bushels was the best for
the 14-year period. In 1912,
though, when less than one per
cent OF the crop was in BY April
4, the yield, with favorable
April and May, was 3i3 bushels.

Clean Seed Makes Better
Potatoes.

The first step In preparing for
a potato crop is to obtain good
seed OF standard market varieties.
Prices for we'll known varieties
are better than for the unknown
ones, and it is easier to secure
good seed when STANDARD varie-
ties are planted. II home grown
seed is used, 1t should be selected
when the crop is harvested 50 as
to make sure not only Of having
the most desirable tubers but also
those from The best hills. AL
Ways reject any diseased pota-
toes when selecting seed for they
will not only produce q poor crop
but will infect the soil with di-
sease and endanger the whole
crop.

culture recommends a further
precaution that the seed potatoes
